- NNancyVIPPittsburgh / Western PA •77 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoColumbus Inn is the best choice for brunch in this area. Excellent food and service and moderate prices. The only criticism I have is that when there is a large group, and there often is, the noise level is really loud. This is Moore the fault of guests who seem to need to out show each other. But if you go at 10 AM, you can generally Have a quiet table and a very nice meal indeed.More infoColumbus InnPrice: Moderate• American• Wilmington•4.7

- JJaneVIPPhiladelphia County •18 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 11, 2025We did the surf & turf dinner and it did not disappoint…dishes that included scallops & pork belly, ahi tuna & ox tail, lobster with truffles, filet mignon. All were well prepared and so delicious. The chocolate dessert ended our meal on an excellent high note. This was our first visit and we will be back!More infoCiro Food And DrinkPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Wilmington•4.8
- SSCOTTVIPPhiladelphia County •33 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 7, 2024We started with the Small plates of Avocado and then the Salmon. The Avocado dish was divine...perfectly warm with tantalizing flavors beneath it. The salmon was really good but we weren't fans of the "crisp" that comes with it which is made from the skin...too fishy for our taste. That's a personal preference. I had the burger and my wife the Cacio e Pepe. Both were also excellent.More infoThe Garden at BardeaPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Wilmington•4.6
