Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Rittenhouse Square

We were greeted upon arriving and were promptly seated as requested. The server was knowledgeable about the menu and made our visit enjoyable. Food continues to be excellent.

We had an amazing meal here with a party of 8 including 2 little kids and 2 tweens. Great quiet space with large windows for people watching. The food was amazing. Everyone enjoyed their meals even our picky eaters and their desserts were exceptional. We appreciated the good service too and kind staff.

We arrived for an early dinner and dined on a variety of appetizers and entrees from a vegetarian pasta to octopus salad, it was all excellent. The staff were extremely attentive. We all agreed that we are definitely coming back.

The food is great but this review is pointless, as Devon Seafood Grill will be closing in a few weeks. The opening was a toasty lobster & crab salad roll sandwich, followed by the mixed seafood grill: shrimp, scallops, salmon, crab cake & grilled asparagus. All was seasoned & cooked to perfection. The side dish, king crab fried rice was a letdown. It was over-salted and tasted much strongly of bacon than crab. Surprise: the champagne was half-price (going out of business sale?) and the final coffee was freshly brewed & excellent. Bottom line: Typically expensive for Center City Philly, but the food was first-rate and the ambience was elegant but relaxing. I'm disappointed my first visit to DSG will also be my last. So I guess if you can get there in the next -2weeks, I say "treat yourself." Otherwise, hope the next restaurant to fill the space serves food of similar quality.

Always a fun time and good food!! A neighborhood go to spot for a comfortable meal!
