    Several very good vegetarian (not vegan) offerings that are creative and well presented. The grilled artichoke salad and pasta with vodka sauce were excellent. Also several mocktail options-the phony Negroni was very good. Service attentive but not overbearing and I was not rushed as sometimes happens when dining solo. Meal was well paced, I was there about 1.5 hrs. Not super crowded, but has potential to be loud and energetic when fully booked. Would dine there again

    It’s a consistently great place for dinner any time, but also the best restaurant week menu in Philly. 4 tapas plus desert per person for $40. So dinner for 2 is eight tapas dishes plus dessert.

    We had a wonderful experience. We could not have asked for better food or service if we had tried. The cheesesteak beignets could not have been better. I also had the lobster bisque which was so flavorful that is was even good lukewarm. The seafood pot pie, was nice and hot (temperature). I cannot say enough about the food. Now the service, OMG, it could not have been better. Pleasant, attentive, professional, friendly, kind and extremely courteous. My only problem was when we were saying grade out loud, the server who brought the food over kept saying “lobster bisque, lobster bisque” over and over until I put my finger up. I think a certain amount of respect and restraint needs to be shown in those instances. Also. Lighting was horrible. Otherwise awesome experience!!! Cannot wait to come back.

    Every time I go to this restaurant, I thoroughly enjoy myself. We were there for a restaurant week and from the moment we walked in it was a great ambience. Great dreams, great food, and great customer service. Our waiter provided details on the different types of wines he recommended as well as the beers. Across the three courses I myself got the tortellini, pork and the ricotta cake all which were so divine. My partner got the lobster bisque, which was very good. He felt that the veal was a little underseasoned, but very well cooked and the meat was very soft and lastly the chocolate dessert was also very good. I plan on coming back to try more wines and to eat more food.

    The food and service was great. The lamb chops were unbearably salty and we did have to return them. Apparently, that’s not typical. Loved the wings, seafood rice, beef teriyaki skewers were amazing as well as the Mei Mei sushi roll.
