Nineteen (XIX)
VENUE DETAILS
Scene
Diners looking to go upscale can do just that by dining at XIX. Nineteen floors above the busy Avenue of the Arts, XIX has the perfect view of the sparkling skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows. This striking lounge attracts the white collar crowd as well as the beautiful people of Philadelphia. At XIX patrons can expect to discover true grandeur, unrivaled style and service at this iconic downtown Philadelphia restaurant.
Eats & Drinks
Customers can expect to dine on a menu concentrated on seafood, with preparation that blends in Thai and Indian influences, with dishes such as marinated scallops and Pee Wee monkfish. Also one shouldn’t leave without savoring their excellent martinis. The raw bar is the centerpiece of both the menu and the main dining room. Choosing among the 19 specialty cocktails may be tough, but the quality and taste of each one is second to none.
Ambience
A beautiful marble bar adorns the interior, and three cozy window seats give it romantic appeal. Customers can have a seat on one of the rich brown banquettes, and sip a martini over candlelight. XIX has a luxurious and stylish atmosphere that combines the building's historic architectural elements with a warm & inviting design scheme. Inside patrons sit under a century-old rotunda with original frescos adorning the walls. A massive pearl chandelier resting above an equally large raw bar accents the traditional space.
