Estia Description:
Estia is located right off Broad Street in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. Offers an extensive wine list, a pre-theater dinner menu, and fresh whole fish imported directly from the Mediterranean region.
This spot features Jerusalem stone and hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings with white sailcloth between the beams, dark wood tables, and booths set in the stone walls. There's a spotless open kitchen and even a wishing well near the market display of fresh fish and vegetables. The long list of mezes includes grilled sardines and grilled octopus. Definitely order fresh fish, flown in from the Mediterranean daily, and priced by the pound. Specialties include the lavraki, a flaky white European sea bass, and lethrini, a Greek version of snapper, both grilled, and deboned tableside. The well-priced wine list is primarily Greek. Service is competent and friendly. A $30 prix-fixe pre-theater menu is offered from 5 p.m.-7 p.m., a convenient option as Estia is steps away from Academy of Music, Merriam and Kimmel Center.
