PDN Team Review: My friends and I have DJ'd parties, taken girls on dates, and gone for Bro's Night Out plenty of times at Dave & Busters and we absolutely love it. The food is great with a huge variety ranging from Pizza and Burgers to Steaks and Pastas. There's enough games to keep the fun going for hours. We highly recommend this for a first date or couple's dating, more the merrier!

Romantic Dinner on the Delaware

       Looking for a romantic dinner for two? Take a trip down to Penns Landing off Columbus Boulevard and set sail on the Moshulu. Get sea sick easily? That won't be a problem, the Moshulu is a docked sail ship converted into a full restaurant. This historic ship is the perfect place for a romantic dinner for any special occasion. Open seven days a week, the Moshulu's large menu has a variety of both steak and seafood as well as vegetarian and kosher options. A full brunch menu is also available on Sunday mornings.

Budget: $65-95 Dinner for Two
Parking: $12-$18 Lot

Dress: Formal

Romantic: Yes

First Date: Not Recommended

PDN Team Review: After attending an event on the ship a few weeks back, I was very impressed by both the amazing food and romantic atmosphere of the ship. It would absolutely be an amazing place for an anniversary, birthday, or any other very special occasion. Just note it is very formal and very expensive.

Tips: If it's nice out, request to be seated on the upper deck.
