The food is ok at best and way overpriced. That’s not the bad part.’it’s the rude wait staff and hostess staff. Just nasty from the get go and pushing us out of the door as quick as they can and it wasn’t even crowded. Murray’s is much better and better service!

This place has calmed down slightly (only slightly) from the early days when long lines forced you to maneuver the mounds of Main-Liners. I confess that waiting in a yuppified, gentrified, line to eat in a place that has no liquor license, is not my cup of green tea.
Still, the food remains terrific. A little spicy for me and a little curried, but a cut above the usual Chinese and Asian fare out here. This is not to belittle the Asian cuisine out in the Wynnewood, Bryn Mawr, Ardmore, Haverford , Havertown area which is top-notch in many places.
The decor is...well...Chinese...clean...nothing special and not likely to win any interior design awards.
We took home a variety. Great dim sum dumplings, spareribs falling off the bone and wonderfully flavored, pork lo mein, rice etc. And they do have a way with vegetables. Pea pods, carrots, green beans... you name it.
Again, not very top of my list, but close to the top for my wife, Barbara...and that definitely counts for a lot.

Hidden gem in Narberth with excellent food, service and pricing. Not a disappointing dish. Seafood, fish, grilled and stewed meats all excellent. BYOB. Good variety of regular menu items plus several specials. Pleasant setting. On street parking can be scarce but always find something close by. Unrushed and well served meals. Very popular with locals.

Not your average menu here, first of all a brick oven with grilled food and pizza coming out if the wood burning fire oven. Smokey flavors , with great ingredients make the food outstanding. Nice cocktail menu with really intelligent bar staff, and a good selection og beer

What started as an edgy spot in West Philadelphia has become an "Oh so fancy" typical main line "fashion statement". Food OK but overpriced, reservation was "missing", creating long wait. Servers indifferent.. Mostly two Glasses of overpriced wine and salad clientele. But regular "Well Dressed" crowd seems happy and at home there.

Had dinner on a Tuesday evening. Made reservations for 5:30pm for 4 and glad I did. Several people were already there when we arrived. We were seated right away by Mike he was very friendly and made several suggestions for dinner as he opened our bottles of wine. This is a BYOB which I like. We used a Groupon which included apps, salads, entrees and dessert all of which were delicious. Coconut shrimp and cheese platter to start, then salads and seafood and steaks for the main course. Dessert trio was so good. Several take home containers were filled due to the large portions of food. This is not an inexpensive restaurant but the Groupon made it affordable. Would highly recommend.

I went to this spot with a family member on a weekday morning, and the restaurant was busy, with lots of chatter and laughter in the background.
Once we were seated, it took us a few minutes to review the menu. We had to ask for straws for our waters, and our table settings only had knives and forks, so we had to ask for spoons for the hot coffee and tea that we ordered.
Once that was all squared away I ordered the Turkey bacon and homefries with onions, and my companion ordered the french toast with blueberries.
Our food was delicious and enjoyable, and we didn't wait too long. I loved the presentation and the servings were quite hearty.
This is a great place to sit, catch up and enjoy a good meal.

Iron Hill has a great menu and beer selection. Almost everything is prepared well and is a decent eat, no real complaints (except the average children's choices are average like any of upteem restaurants). Only caveat is that it is a bit pricey for everything. It's good but not on the "budget side" of family outings.

Only one gripe: they charge for extra capers, which kinda shocked me.
But that aside: large portions of good food: pasta, fish, chicken, etc.($15-$20)
Some of the best burgers around. ($10)
Usually a pretty good draft list of 10-12, plus bottles and can, and some nice pours on the bourbons and whiskeys of the world.
This is my GO-TO place (near work) for friends, family, kids, and romance, too.
