Valley Green Inn Restaurant Review: Looking for a brunch or dinner spot to please your relatives from 7 to 70? This is it. Built in 1850, the charming historic inn is not only a one-of-a-kind within city limits, but it is also one of Philly's most painted buildings---which a trip to the Philadelphia Art Museum will prove. Residing in the Valley Green park and alongside the creek (bring some bread to feed the ducks), the restaurant has long been popular with hungry day hikers and Sunday strollers in spite of below average food. Revamped and improving still, the menu focuses on regional and seasonal American, farm-raised and free-range meats and fowl and locally grown vegetables when possible. Among the best choices are blackened catfish with a mac 'n’ cheese fritter and Kentucky bourbon butter sauce, jumbo lump crab cakes with black rice, baby bok choy and house-made curry with coconut oil, and a pistachio-encrusted Chilean sea bass topped with ginger, roasted peppers, cilantro and butter. The desserts could still use some work (tiramisu has been uninspired), but overall Valley Green is coming up in the world. |
