A relaxed place to have a few drinks and decompress from the craziness outside. I would recommend this place if you don't mind paying a little more for regular drinks but are there for the ambiance

Great drinks and great atmosphere. Staff is friendly. A little pricey but great quality. It's pretty crowded here even on a weekday so it can be tough to find a seat

Great spot for some superb mixed cocktail options!

This is a cozy, great place. We tried the cocktails and they were great, refined. Staff is very friendly! Great place where we started our vacation with the birthday of our niece ??

If I could give it 10 stars I would. Drinks are great, but the food is off the charts. Best oysters I've ever had!

Pathetic doormen who would not permit my adult daughter and myself to even enter the foyer last night while being harassed by aggressive homeless man They informed us bar was crowded and try back in 30 minutes. We were just stopping in for a glass of wine after attending Academy of Music. I will never ever patronize this establishment nor would my daughter and friends ever again. Poor excuse for door security and making women feel unsafe. No police presence anywhere in Rittenhouse at all. The city is going down the gutter and nothing is being done and this establishment is heading there as well. Shame on you.

Myself and my friend stopped in for an espresso martini since we were told they’re the best in the area. When we walked in I walked over to the bartender to order. I was brushed off by the bartender and was told “the server will get your order” and he walked off. He barely made eye contact with me and his tone almost caused me to walk back out. It was pretty rude. I also preferred to sit at the bar. Our server seated us at a table in the back. Took our order and came back with our drinks. The martini was absolutely amazing. But the service lacked. As our drinks were getting low, no one came over to ask if we’d like another. I asked another bartender about dessert and was met with the same bothersome brush off. After wrapping up with our drinks we waited hoping someone would over to see if we needed anything or at least the check. No one did so I asked for it. The martini was perfect and the least expensive out of the places I’ve been to in Philadelphia but the service will keep me from returning.

Great service, food and cocktails! Good amount of vegetarian options if you’re looking for that.
