    Little Water is a refreshing dinner spot offering a nice variety of seafood dishes. The service and pacing of the meal make this place shine - it is so relaxing to dine here! The staff keep glasses full. The pacing of the meal is excellent - they leave plenty of time for each dish to shine. Tables are spaced out nicely as well, further contributing to a relaxed dining experience. We had a 5:45 res on a Saturday night and stayed for about 2 hours as a party of 2 ordering apps, drinks & entrees. For a ladies night out, we tried the bread, swordfish crudo, Caesar salad & swordfish Milanese. Each course surpassed our expectations. The caesar salad was HUGE and delicious - definitely something you could split as a large side for 2 or a small side for 4. Excellent wine and cocktail selection as well. They also had some mocktails on the menu that looked tasty. Absolutely thrilled! Would return for a celebration

    We ate upstairs in the dining room and started with filet tips, eggplant rollatini and steamed clams. We followed with the Bronzino and the 12oz filet. Everything was delicious. Our Server, Jill was absolutely fantastic. We ended our snowy Christmas celebration with a shared espresso martini and ice cream. It was a great experience and can’t wait to go back!

    The food is great but this review is pointless, as Devon Seafood Grill will be closing in a few weeks. The opening was a toasty lobster & crab salad roll sandwich, followed by the mixed seafood grill: shrimp, scallops, salmon, crab cake & grilled asparagus. All was seasoned & cooked to perfection. The side dish, king crab fried rice was a letdown. It was over-salted and tasted much strongly of bacon than crab. Surprise: the champagne was half-price (going out of business sale?) and the final coffee was freshly brewed & excellent. Bottom line: Typically expensive for Center City Philly, but the food was first-rate and the ambience was elegant but relaxing. I'm disappointed my first visit to DSG will also be my last. So I guess if you can get there in the next -2weeks, I say "treat yourself." Otherwise, hope the next restaurant to fill the space serves food of similar quality.
