Fork

An Old City anchor since 1997, and one of the restaurants that helped pull the neighborhood back to life in the late '90s. The menu follows Mid-Atlantic farms and changes often, and the current one runs from raw-bar starters like oysters and fluke carpaccio through four handmade pastas to mains like striped bass and a bone-in pork chop. A 2025 renovation put a wooden bar where the concrete one used to be, and the room is warmer and more tavern-like for it.
