Entering the Saloon, a family owned restaurant since it opened in 1967 is a bit like stepping into Philadelphia's past. Dark oak paneling, shiny brass and authentic local antiques create a warm congenial and casual atmosphere. The choice of two comfortable dining rooms each with its own vintage bars make dining and conversation a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Both bars feature a delicious and moderately priced food menu. The menu is Italian with seafood specials such as grilled octopus and dover sole. Saloon steaks and veal chops are legendary. Many prefer a plate of fried long hot peppers to compliment the steaks. All desserts and gelatos are made on the premises daily. The Saloon is a Philadelphia neighborhood bar and restaurant with a national reputation. And the parking is FREE!

Best guacamole I’ve ever had. I could seriously just sit at the bar and order the different guacamoles. Also, the black bean enchilada is good if you like a little spice in your food

We had an excellent evening at Saloon. From beginning to end our dining experience was wonderful. Our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and the dessert a great way to end our meal. A bonus was valet parking, which made our evening so much easier. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

Hosted a business dinner for 10. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Estia is consistent and great for a large party. Nice festive atmosphere. Food is excellent- fabulous Greek appetizers to share, fresh fish and other delicious entrees. Server was professional and didn’t try to upsell us which I appreciated.
