French toast
Madison R.

The chocolate chip pancakes for their brunch are the reason we tried this place. Let me tell you, my fiancé loved them, and he is picky about his pancakes/breakfast. He rated them a 9.5/10. For the French toast, it was really good but just a bit too sweet for me so I couldn't eat a lot of it. But the taste of the French toast itself was really good, I think I'd just ask for the cream on the side next time. We'll definitely be back for brunch!

Royale With Cheese
Maya S.

I love the look of this place! I have only been for drinks prior and sat at the outdoor bar. From what I recall, the bartender was wonderful and very knowledgeable. The food was good! Not the best burger I've ever had, but it's a good burger and the ambiance and service was great. The chicken wings were cooked perfectly! There's a pretty extensive draft beer list and a lot of whiskey/bourbon forward cocktails if that's your taste.

Decided to come here for restaurant week last month with two friends. We like to try "new to us" places when choosing where to go. As we were following the hostess to be seated, we were blown away by how big the restaurant was! We sat in the last room in the back, which also had a bar in it. Service and food were good! We were all pleased with our picks from the restaurant week menu. I started with the cauliflower and Brussels sprouts appetizer (wonderful!) then had the short rib toast as my entree. Overall pleased with our restaurant pick! Cool vibe and the staff were all friendly and professional!

Really enjoyed the night out at Butcher bar. The octopus was a little overdone, but the flavors were amazing! And the lamb was also excellent. I would say you can skip the sides. The garlic It's actually a great spot if you wanna go on a date, or hang out with friends. I'll definitely be coming back.

FRIED BURRATA SALAD - $12
Chris L.

Second time! This time ordered on DoorDash. Got different things and glad I did because there are so many tasty options. Well packaged. Great place if you want to get multiple things to share.

Monte Cristo sandwich
David M.

We stopped in at the butcher bar on a rainy Saturday. They had their brunch menu and I ordered the monte cristo sandwich. Stacked with smoked turkey, ham, Swiss cheese. Served with homemade fries and the raspberry preserve. This was a delicious sandwich but what made it unique was the raspberry sandwich. Truly different than anything I have tried on a sandwich and it was a right mixture of sweet and savory taste buds that didn't overpower the sandwich. The restaurant was nice we sat on the second level and it was a very lively place on a Saturday during the day. The class were and professional and made me feel welcome enough that I would go back again.

Stuffed ravioli with sausage, pasta of the day
Frances U.

This is a really cute bar, very rustic, can easily be dressed up or down. Staff was lovely, food was served in a timely manner. Mixed reviews on food and drinks. The bone marrow is great, the smoked Gouda mac and cheese was great, and the pasta of the day was okay, it was stuffed ravioli that day. The lamb was a 2/10, do not recommend at all. I personally didn't think octopus was well made but my friend thought it was okay. Only 2 people at the table drank and both are bartenders, and they gave okay drink reviews. I'll be back for a second try though, never try any place once! It's good for groups as well!

I went during Restaurant week because of the extensive menu offered for $40. With three courses and in the first, you were able to choose from five items the same for the entrée and two for dessert. When you walk you encounter a spacious bar with a friendly staff and great drink options. There's a lot to choose from here even if you're just stopping in for a drink. I got a citywide was a good bang for my 7 bucks. It was three of us. We all chose something different and did a taste testing. The Korean cauliflower got rave reviews and the smoked chicken wings were good not great. As for the Eye tray, I chose the Nashville hot game hen. It was pretty good The ribs were tasty not dry and very meaty. Then there was the 8 ounce steak which was cooked perfectly and I must say 8 ounces is a lot for a $40.00 3 course meal. The ambience is a little dark but it is a bar. The upstairs dining was very nice. You could see out of the open window down onto the street. Would I go again? Yes with or without Restaurant week.

New to the city so thought I'd start a yelp, and with the my first stop i was very pleased. I am definitely a quantity over quality guy, I like a lot of food. When dining at a high quality restaurant often you get less because less is more. I felt the size of the food was perfect. I left full, and it was also delicious. The food came out fast, the scenery was beautiful and well decorated. I didn't feel it was over priced. A great experience and am excited to go back for endless mimosas here soon. The waitress came, did her two minute check and offered us salt and pepper and after she walked away my girlfriend said "usually I ask for salt but this is perfect." (P.S. if you love fries, these fries are outstanding) Thanks Butchers Bar.

Potato hash
Jenae M.

This is a quick and simple brunch spot! I typically lean more toward lunch side and get the chicken sandwich. Tried the potato hash and wish I could have took an order home. The flavor packed a punch and so much better than I expected. Bottomless drinks included which is always a plus.

I came across this incredible restaurant while searching for the nearest sushi bar to the hospital…read morewhere my wife was a patient, and what a remarkable surprise it turned out to be. The first impression was not especially auspicious. The restaurant is tucked away in the basement beneath a building on Walnut Street in Philadelphia, and at first glance the menu prices gave me pause. But from the very first bite, every doubt completely disappeared. The sushi was absolutely extraordinary -- some of the best I have ever had anywhere. I ordered the 9-piece tasting menu with uni for $68, and every single piece of nigiri was exquisite. The fish practically melted in my mouth, with outstanding freshness, texture, and flavor. Each bite felt carefully crafted and perfectly balanced. The service was equally impressive. The staff was warm, cheerful, attentive, and made the entire experience feel welcoming and relaxed. I arrived toward the end of the evening, so the restaurant was pleasantly quiet, which made the meal even more enjoyable. This was truly a memorable dining experience. Every course was exceptional, and I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates outstanding sushi. My only regret is that it is so far from where I live, because otherwise I would return again and again.

We ordered salads, steak, pork chops, mashed potatoes, corn, and a bottle of overpriced Caymus wine. Hubby liked his pork chops, my filet was ok. The sides were delish!!! They also were very kind in offering us a comp dessert for our anniversary which we got to pick. Typically restaurants just bring out whatever dessert they want so I appreciated that we got to choose. We chose a vanilla Carmel cake. It was good but we were also so stuffed! Minus 2 stars - as the end of the night, our server disappeared & when he did reappear, I could never get his attention to get the bill. I flagged someone else down but they just shrugged. It took me putting my jacket on (& 20 extra mins) to get Lawrence's attention. Also, it was close to the end of the night as we were wrapping up - maybe 9:30ish. There were still PLENTY of guests eating dinner, and the workers started breaking down tables in our section, moving things around, replacing large tables for smaller ones, etc. We're trying to have a nice (expensive!) dinner & workers are cleaning up around us. What a buzz kill. Remember I was the one trying to GET my servers attention - trust me we didn't overstay. Honestly, eh - I wouldn't recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful dinner tonight at this elegant, upscale restaurant set within a…read morehistoric landmark. The space is breathtaking--soaring 38-foot sculpted ceilings and a 34-foot wine tower at the center of the bar create a truly luxurious and unforgettable ambiance. The hospitality is just as impressive as the setting. Every member of the staff was professional and attentive, and the managers checked on us throughout the meal to ensure everything was perfect. Our waitress, Ayoola, was exceptional--warm, personable, and genuinely thoughtful. She made us feel completely taken care of from start to finish. We began at the bar with a cocktail called the VIP, which was perfectly balanced--smooth, refreshing, and very easy to enjoy. I didn't even think to take a photo until we were nearly finished--that's always a good sign. The complimentary bread was outstanding--warm, buttery, and perfectly fluffy with a delicate texture. Easily one of the best I've had, and very hard to resist. My husband and I shared three appetizers, two mains, and three sides, and even the sides were generously portioned. It was quite a lot of food, but every dish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and deeply satisfying. The tuna tartare--with avocado and prawn chips--was incredibly fresh, delicious, and well-seasoned, with a delicate balance that really let the quality of the fish shine. The medium-rare sesame ahi tuna was another standout--perfectly seared, tender, and rich in flavor. It was so good that my husband started digging in before I could even snap a photo. We couldn't even finish all the sides, and by the end, we were completely full and had to skip dessert--but that just gives us a reason to come back. An exceptional dining experience in every way--this is easily a 5-star experience, and one we'll be thinking about long after the meal.

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience at Del Frisco's in Philadelphia. My mother and I were…read morevisiting from Washington, DC, and stopped by expecting the level of hospitality this restaurant claims to represent. Instead, we were treated in a way that felt humiliating and discriminatory. We were not allowed to sit or even properly discuss seating with the staff. Rather than treating us like paying guests, the situation escalated quickly and security was brought over to confront us. As two Black customers who were simply trying to dine, the entire interaction felt unnecessary and deeply uncomfortable. No one should be made to feel unwelcome or targeted when walking into a restaurant. The way this was handled left us feeling embarrassed and disrespected. Restaurants at this level should prioritize professionalism, respect, and equal treatment for all guests. I hope management seriously reviews how situations like this are handled so other customers don't have to experience the same treatment.
