      America's 100 Best Wine Restaurants of 2019

      The Love, Philadelphia, PA
      Visit Website

      This charming 100-seat restaurant has been winning hearts since it opened in 2017. Though the buttermilk fried chicken remains the must-order item, seasonal food and beverage offerings have continued to evolve. The wine selection is divided into ever-changing mini-lists like like “Sunny Day Sippers” and “Ladies With Legs.”

      From The Sommelier: “Local wine is a huge focus for me and for the restaurant. I love turning guests on to new wines in general, but there is something even more gratifying about introducing someone to a category they didn’t know would be as delicious as it is, and have that wine be made in Pennsylvania. Getting to know the local vintners in Pennsylvania is one of the most exciting parts of my job, as is sharing their wines and their stories with our guests. Relationships with local farmers are really important to us in the kitchen and they have become equally as important to us on the wine list.” —Alexandra Cherniavsky, The Love

      Dish We Loved: “Lovebird”: Buttermilk fried chicken, Georgia grits, Jamaican jerk aioli, and braised collard greens
