I learned later that this restaurant has been around since the early to mid 1900's. Plenty of parking in a large open lot. The place is very large and has one of the longest bars I've seen. The wood is very dark and you can see the chefs cooking over the hearth. They don't take reservations and won't see you until your entire party is there. One of the things I liked for our party of 10 was they had no problems with seating as they also have many large round tables. For mixed drinks, they make them pretty big and potent. For my martini, they sent back an extra glass. They also had great bleu cheese stuffed olives. We ordered onion rings (8 large to an order) and fried zucchini. The onion ring I had was pretty good. I didn't have the fried zucchini but heard it was also pretty good. Other than the light fare items, all dinners come with their salad bar which has both iceberg lettuce and Caesar Salad along with many fixings as well as cheeses and bread. I had the Baked Seafood Platter which came with scallops, shrimp, Clam Casino (without the shell), Maryland crab cake and a small lobster tail for $49.99. My wife had the baked chicken breast which she said was quite dry. The dining area is quite large and reminds me of the restaurants at a casino. Some in our group said it reminds them of Medieval Times due to the dark wood vibe. While I thought it was a bit pricey, I would still come back and try their signature steaks or prime rib.

I've known this corner strip mall bar since it was Buddy's, Side Street Saloon and Brady's, whether…read moreit was for Wing's to go, beer to go, karaoke, live music or just a night out for drinks with friends. It was always a simple/sorta dive neighborhood bar with good wings, good people and simple beers on tap. I stopped in on a recent Friday afternoon with a group of 17-20 people to check out the new "Slim's". The bar area itself looked renovated and the rest of the seating areas looked like they just cleaned up and added some badly needed lighting. The girl at the bar had to be very new or just lazy. She really didn't know the menu, was vaping by the register, didn't seem interested in helping anyone but her regulars, had customers buying her drinks and gave me my tab with no details. I'm a pretty tolerant guy, but she was not an asset to the owner at all. She was a total liability and waste of space. She anchored herself behind the bar looking at her phone until someone acknowledged her. We ordered the homemade taco dip with tortillas - the dip was cold and looked to be store bought in a plastic container with some dip thrown on top. Mozzarella sticks were awful and again the sauce was cold. I ordered the lambchops myself which said they came with "slim fries". I asked the bartender what slim fries were and she didn't have a clue. They were just crinkle cut fries. I enjoyed the lamb chops, but they were very salty and spicy. Spice doesn't bother me, but it should be added as a note on the menu. They had "Slim's beer" on tap which the bartender claimed was the owners own beer. It had to be either a Coor's or a Miller product. It was not very good. Either their lines aren't cleaned weekly or biweekly like they should be or it's just a macro beer with their own name on it. Quite a few customers I chatted with said the wings are still good, so I'll have to try them sometime if I'm in the neighborhood. Sadly, we all left hungry after an hour or so to go to a different establishment (we were much happier at the second place). We paid all of our checks without an issue, but the service and the product were far under expectations. There is a lot more effort needed at Slim's for them to get my business again.

I didn't have the pleasure of visiting Dog & Bull before it was renovated, but I visited last night and can't wait to return. My friend and I made a reservation for 5:30 PM (just in case) as we read online that reservations were recommended, but I don't actually think one was needed. When you walk in, it's bright and inviting. The garage doors throughout the property provide a ton of natural light. I can only imagine how lovely it is when they're open in the summer. Additionally, the outside has a nice patio and an area with a fire pit. The restaurant's layout was designed wonderfully! Our server was Alex (Alexandria) and she was the epitome of exceptional service. She checked in on us multiple times and always had a smile on her face when she came over. We really appreciated having her. The baked feta and hummus appetizer was just as delicious as it looks in the photo. The thick pieces of garlic, roasted red peppers, olives, cucumbers and pita bread triangles paired so nicely with the feta. The hummus was warmed up and it looked like the kitchen staff may have torched the top of it. It was phenomenal. Boy do I have notes on the lentil burger - it was 10/10!! I'm not a big bean person and even though this burger had beans in it, it somehow tasted like an actual beef burger. Sounds crazy, I know, but trust and believe it was pure excellence. I added cheddar for an additional charge and upgraded my regular fries to garlic parm fries. Finally, the caramel apple bread pudding... oh my oh my! What a DELIGHT. The top was piled high with a big scoop of frosting. Yes, you read that right. Frosting! Not ice cream! You can taste the apple pieces in the bread pudding. My friend and I wanted to order it twice. It was THAT good. It was easy to make my way to Dog & Bull from Center City thanks to the Septa station located directly behind the restaurant. Street parking also wasn't too bad yesterday. I absolutely loved the experience I had here and will be stopping by again this summer! Thanks, Dog & Bull!

The floor in the main dinning room is pulling apart and is duct taped together. The chairs and tables are flimsy and falling apart. I asked for a blood orange margarita as it was the special of the day. It was not drinkable. It was some sort of powder or mix that was so sour and overly sweet. It did not have any tequila in it. I literally took one sip and left it there. The cheesesteak was good on a seeded roll. It was ribeye and it was done well. Hence tge two stars. The bbq platter had brisket, pulled chicken, ribs, corn and Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was the best thing on the platter. The pulled chicken was sitting in a bowl of grease. The brisket was big globs of fat. The ribs were okay. They put a tiny line of sauce on each item. The service was rushed and spotty. I had heard good things, so we decided to give it a try. Very disappointed. There are so many good places around this area now, there is no need to go here again.

The outside doesn't really scream dive bar, but somehow you just get that impression... Meeting two friends here for lunch this past week, surprised me to the innards of Carmen's, It is a lot of bar, covering most of the space, but I witnessed every travel of life inside, from t-shirts and braided goatee bikers, to shirts with ties, to suits and ladies all dressed up for a business meeting, but sliding inside here for a quick lunch and a drink, to folks like me and my two friends, who were just there, casually dressed.. They boast a typical bar menu with a few daily selections, like homemade soup, the sandwich of the day was kielbasas with sauerkraut, which is all right in my book, plus a daily special. TV's and games to play, even a lottery machine to place your bets, should you feel lucky. They have beer and the wines are limited, but what they offered was good enough for Carmen's, they even make martini's unlike the ones your grandmother drank, which totally surprised me, even the dirty ones. Ashtrays are everywhere, to catch those fallen ashes and credit cards are accepted. My friend Joyce had a great looking cheessteak and said it was good and it came with bagged chips, but she got a side of crinkle cut fries with cheese sauce and I snagged a few. Nicole got a grilled ham with cheese with chips, her friend ordered the mild wings and said they were spicy good, but they sure as heck looked meaty, so I bought some to go for hubby and he's loving them.
