New York Magazine's Grub Street on "12 Reasons to Eat in Philadelphia Right Now" (with a shout-out to our sister spot, Pizzeria Beddia)! "The city is home to some seriously special pastry. Down the street from Pizzeria Beddia, you’ll find Suraya, which even the local food press considers to be the best restaurant in the city. And yes, it’s incredibly good and you’ll actively dream about the pita and brown-butter fetteh and those kebabs even after you leave. But the highlight ...is the restaurant’s pastry program. There’s a perfectly laminated kouign amann with a crackly crust and the warm scent of cardamom swirled throughout; a rose-and-pistachio cruller that’s both crunchy and tender; and a take on the classic Lebanese dessert maamoul, a buttery shortbread cookie with pistachio, walnut, or date filling that nearly brought one of Grub Street’s Lebanese friends to tears."

The New York Times highlights our city and we’re so grateful to be included Your trip should involve one last thing: Suraya. The Lebanese restaurant has won local and national accolades for its mezze, like za’atar-scented labneh, smoky baba ganoush and fried kibbe sweetened with raisins. The modern, open space has a long bar as well as outdoor seating in a beautiful, tree-filled garden.
