   Dandelion at Christmas time is one of the coziest settings in Philly. We had great service as well, but that’s about where it ended. The food was good, but I’ll proportioned and not going to knock your socks off though it commands a price tag of that caliber. Didn’t get our second round of drinks until we were almost finished with our meal and ordered well before. My wine glass was dirty and speaking of dirty, the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. Blood on the wall.

   I love this place. I go here every time I'm in Philadelphia. I was given this recommendation years ago and have told many people about this. The decor and ambiance are so nice and relaxing and the food is fabulous. The staff are friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend!

   Server was very inattentive, never asked if we wanted drink, rush to order meal and never asked if we needed anything or had questions. Was definitely well below the Stephen Starr Standard. Also staff stood around bar the whole time chatting and cursing, dropping the F-bomb and we had our 3 year old.

   Came her by recommendation of a good friend and oh boy was it worth it! We got the whipped ricotta appetizer, fish and chips and rabbit pie. All delicious!

   Loved Laura our server. The Caesar is a fresh riff with cashews just excellent. Pate is light yet rich. A wonderful spot for a cold winter day.

    Service was good, old pub feel nice but food was not as expected . The fish and chips ordered were not great as seemed like oil needs to be changed or it was just over fried. My Royale Benedict was okay… the eggs were cold and the hollandaise was cold and so was the English muffin. After a lapse between appetizer and entrees occurred due to a technical difficulty with system our order was finally entered and the server advised us and apologized for delay and assured us everything would be cooked to order and would be hot (her exact words) and my royale was cold and my son’s omelet was only lukewarm. We weren’t check on soon enough after receiving food and we felt awkward, hungry and time pressed so we just ate our cold food.. We had higher expectations but may try it again in the future. Ambience was nice as were the cocktails and servers were friendly if not timely. Fair experience.
