Was driving toward south Philly and searched for a restaurant with top ratings that was open and this was one of the top results. My wife and I ordered some drinks, an appetizer cheesesteak egg rolls, and a couple of sandwiches, a cheesesteak and the roast beef sandwich. We ordered the egg rolls first and about 7-8 minutes later, we ordered the sandwiches. About 10 minutes later the cheesesteak and the egg rolls came out together...so no time to eat the appetizer. We waited about 3-4 minutes for the roast beef sandwiches. Immediately, there was a disappointment with the size. When a cheesesteak is $13 on the menu I would expect something bigger than a 6" liscio roll. But that's what you get. Both sandwiches had the roll cut 95% of the way through so the filling was spilling out everywhere. The roast beef was a little overcooked and dry but since it was covered with cheese and au jus it was marginally edible. The quality of the meat in the cheesesteak was solid but the meat was not drained at all so it was very greasy. There was a small puddle of oil on the plate after the sandwich was gone. The egg rolls were pretty good and the dipping ketchup was one of the better I had. I found the house chips inedible. They were way over cooked and had an unpleasant burnt taste, like when you get a burnt herrs chip in a bag but the whole order of chips were overdone. Service was fine...it was late afternoon so only a couple tables in the place.
I wish I had taken pics of the food onshore because it was that...
Read moreFive adults went here on a Thuraday evening before a hockey game. We had a reservation and we're seated early too. The space is small, so the sound was loud from neighboring tables. We ordered the flatbread pizza appetizer and aranchini balls which were good. Then we ordered our main entrees. We waited a little longer than expected for our entrees but they were packed and it seemed like they were cooking to order as they should. The steak was phenomenal. The chicken marsala looked good and so did the chicken parm. I had the eggplant rolled up with ricotta and spinach with the Vodka sauce on top. Honestly my meal had 1 flavor to it and that was the sauce, which is good. But I could have gotten a pasta with the sauce and got the same flavor. So even though the waitress loved that dish, I wouldn't get it again. I ordered the holiday chocolate espresso martini and it was just okay...I've definitely had better. The waitress did amazing even though she was the only one for the whole room. (I'm guessing they were busier than expected due to the hockey game). There was a food runner who was constantly up and down the stairs. There was a girl at the front entrance that was just sitting there (as no one was coming in constantly). I feel as though she should have helped clean dishes off the tables or get drink refills. They have Pepsi products even though the menu and reciept said coke. They have a full bar, tvs, open garage door...
Read moreIn town for an Eagles game. Found This place with great reviews and gave it a shot. I have never felt so disrespect from a bar/restaurant. I witnessed all the tables around us receive their drinks in small Mason jar type cups...we were given plastic cups...I truly do NOT want to make an assumption that one of us was a little darker than every other patron in this establishment, but it was real hard to miss. We ended up leaving after a small amount of time...I was mad as hell at the behavior and embarrassed for...
