The options at Loews Hotel’s Solefood get soulful, thanks to new chef Thomas Harkins, formerly of Plate, who arrives bearing crowd-pleasing flavors and (finally!) great lunch salads in Center City. (Try the lightly dressed Asian Tuna Caesar or Southern Chicken Cobb.) Dinner is fish-focused and upscale: petite crabcake surrounded by inviting tomato soup, sole with sunchoke puree. Service can be slow, but don’t leave early — you’ll miss pastry chef Amanda Kaewvichien’s well-proportioned desserts, like soft cookies and heavenly sticky-bun bread pudding.
