    Nice for our Birthday celebration. A unique dining experience with the tableside carving of various meats. Sort of fast paced and felt a little rushed. Most ordered the Churrasco experience, It’s a lot of meat ( almost too much) to eat and includes the market bar. an extensive salad bar. The meats were very good.

    It has been a few years since I’ve dined here, and this wonderful restaurant with its excellent menu and impeccably provided service are still as memorable. The roasted beet salad with goat cheese was perfectly dressed, and the seared scallops with lobster and asparagus risotto were to die for. I’ll be back here the next time I’m in Philly!!

    We were running late and the hostess was able to accommodate our new schedule. As soon as we arrived we were seated. We had theater tickets and our waitress made sure we got through dinner on time. Betty was amazing. We were able to get vegetables for the hummus for the gluten free people. The theater menu was perfect. Food was delicious and service was top notch. Highly recommend this location.

    One of the best meals I’ve had recently from the mouth watering biscuits to the tuna tartare and of course the perfectly tender and deliciously seared filet. Amazing!! And for as busy as it was we didn’t seem to have issues hearing the whole table talk. Jeremy and the team took great care of us.
