Philadelphia Restaurants That Serve Ostrich Burger

With a low fat content and a hearty flavor, ostrich meat is a good alternative for those looking for the robust taste of red meat without the guilt. This avian selection is healthier than beef and more exciting than chicken or turkey. When in Philadelphia, tracking down a lunch or dinner featuring ostrich may require a bit of pecking around, but the end result is worth the effort.

Tony Jr's

Head over to Tony Jr's (118 S. 18th St.) for a hearty sandwich. Dig into the selection of ostrich burgers as an alternative to beef and cheese sandwiches in an atmosphere that focuses on food without the frills. Served up with cheese or without, ostrich burgers are offered with a single patty or---for the hearty appetite---a double dose of ostrich patties.

Riverstone Cafe

For a good drive and a good meal, follow the Main Line and explore the Philadelphia suburbs and sample an ostrich filet at the Riverstone Cafe, a tapas, oyster and martini bar in Exton, Pennsylvania. If you are a bit afraid to commit your whole meal to the exotic red meat, try a serving of the grilled ostrich fillet from the tapas menu. It's served with a pomegranate demi-glace with side dishes of garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus.
