Renata's Kitchen in Philadelphia, PA offers home-style Middle Eastern food. Starters might include Arabian salad, mjadarra or tomato cilantro soup.

    We love Parc. On our most recent visit we were there for lunch, everything we had was delicious, and our waitress was the best. We were in Center City Philadelphia to go to the Christmas Village and went there for lunch first. We sat by the window across the street from Rittenhouse Square park and it was just a perfect day. There weren’t many people there at first, but then the restaurant quickly filled up with what looked like mostly people celebrating their Christmas lunch. It was a very festive atmosphere. Parc is a great place to go around the holidays and really any time.
