What a fantastic experience dinning in the Rittenhouse area of Philadelphia on a Tuesday night with a client and two EVP from my company. Extensive opportunity to have a continued conversation about our partnership.
The manager and hosted understood our need for privacy and a quiet setting. So we had the Rittenhouse room. What a fantastic room for a private dinner and had appetizers, to Wagyu fillets to wonderful desserts.
With a select Bordeaux of two we had a fantastic meal with tremendous attention to detail including vegetarian requirement ls and allergies.
I will be back again and you can have a marvelous experience for business or pleasure.

Food was decent! Lamb was cooked well and seasoned nicely! They do have a valet service which is nice, especially in the city where it’s hard to find parking. Valet was awesome; very nice and quick. We did wait for about two hours for our food. We had to ask our waiter for simple things or ask about our food several times until finally the manager came and said they are working with only one burner so it’s gonna be a while. We were given a complementary glass of champagne and shrimp cocktail after we kept asking about our food lol. Then for water they offer tap or bottled water so we asked our waiter are we able to take the water home as we purchased it, he told us no. The manager came over to us and asked if we wanted to take the water home so that completely contradicted everything the waiter said. I would say our waiter definitely affected our experience unfortunately.
