Restaurants near Fairmount Park

Our experience was everything we had been excited for leading up to the reservation. The food was amazing as usual, wonderful staff and environment.

I only had crab cakes very bland wasn’t at all worth the price taste like they just caught the crab and put it on a plate, our waitress Laurie was wonderful, kind of the food doesn’t taste ally all like it use to be are how I remember from a year ago I go to Ruth Chris every year I’ve never had bad food maybe a little loud but the food was always good this time 2025 Feb 14 not at all the food wasn’t on point my husband steak was fatty and bloody, no condiments was offered for the food and it was very much needed

Good service, pretty views, fast food (but not too fast) and delicious. We got the classic beef Wellington, veal chop, potatoes, the ribs as an appetizer, and a special dessert they had for Valentine’s Day. It was quiet but not so quiet you could hear a pen drop like some nicer restaurant; which we enjoyed. Also enjoyed having the parking lot or valet option, either way easy to access for a nice restaurant in the city.

We received great service from Austin and the rest of the employees! The food was very good as well!

The Good: - The staff on hand were great! - The food was hot and as good as expected. - The lobby was less crowded than previous years, so it felt quiet and intimate. The Bad: - It was SLOW. It took over 30 minutes to get our food. The slowness is not on the staff that were on hand. It seemed like drive-thru priority was slowing everything down and they were doing the best they could.
