Silk City, Philadelphia

This former diner got a major facelift in 2007, when it was transformed into a bar/diner/dance club hybrid that resonated with the nearby Northern Liberties crowd. Since then, it’s been attracting the hip and hungry with upscale diner food (Thai chili-glazed chicken wings and the hot roast beef sandwich—a behemoth layered with gruyere, horseradish, black pepper cream, and served with French dip on the side), and after-hours dance club, where all-star DJs spin ‘90s songs that will have you busting a move all over the black-and-white tiled floor. If you're looking for one stop for dinner, drinks and dancing, Silk City offers some of the best Philadelphia nightlife.
