Germantown Avenue is located in a wonderfully quaint area known for high end shopping, tree lined cobblestone streets, and TONS of atmosphere. Chestnut Hill Grill showed me a very good time. Their Ribeye was out of this world, as was their Prime Rib. Service was excellent: the staff was both thoughtful and attentive. I always sat outside but their dining room is lovely and well appointed as well. I ate there on several occasions during my Philly project. I suggest getting there early as the wait can be rather long, especially on weekends.
PROS: Service, Atmosphere
CONS: None.

Hokka Hokka

Just down the Avenue from Chestnut Hill Grill is Hokka Hokka. And boy, if you knew sushi like they know sushi...wow...what a meal! Seriously you can't go wrong here. Clean & Elegant. Some great spicy items and plenty of middle of the road fare for those of us who tend to be less adventurous. I don't know when I've had sushi this good. Staff is willing and eager to explain dishes and preparations. They fill up fast on weekends, so plan ahead.
PROS: Value, Service, Quality
CONS: None.
