Exit 13 has been a favorite of mine since it first opened, and it remains one of the best spots in Bryn Mawr. The food is consistently fantastic, and they’re always evolving—upgrading both the menu and the restaurant itself. We dined there last night with my family, and once again, it didn’t disappoint. We enjoyed two different risottos, a special cannelloni, and “The Jawn” cheesesteak—each dish as delicious as the last. And while the menu keeps expanding, I have to say, I’ll always have a soft spot for their pizzas. Exit 13 delivers a great dining experience every time. Highly recommend!

We had an 8:30 reservation. We got our apps before our drinks arrived which wasn’t great. The apps were good - we got Brussels sprouts, wings, caeser salad and pizza. However another salad our friend ordered as an app didn’t arrive until the entrees came which was disappointing. The entrees were all good except the blackened halibut and scallops were over seasoned and salty. My biggest complaint is that they were trying to clear our table constantly while people were still eating. And they were mopping and putting up chairs on other tables at 10 pm which made us feel like we were being kicked out. If a restaurant is open until 10 and takes 9:30 reservations, they should not be shutting down so quickly when people are still dining. I don’t think we will be returning here.

In any other city, this food could be considered fine dining. The mix of sports bar and fabulous food makes it a fun, casual place to get GREAT food and EXCEPTIONAL service. It was our first time and can be considered loyal customers already!!!

A cozy, laid back spot with excellent food and eclectic decor at the old Garrett Hill Pizza spot (which, supposedly, you can still order the pizza to go). The food was excellent and well portioned for the price. The arancini was a hit, and the cannelloni melted in the mouth. The pizza crust was pillowy soft with just the right amount of crunch. For dessert, the lava cake was ok but the funnel cake bites were fun. Service was friendly but the timing of our courses was off - appetizers and entrees arrived within minutes of each other. P.S. We saw The Jawn - it is huge

Always outstanding, food is exceptional and plenty of choices to please all palates. You can’t go wrong with whatever you choose. Service is spot on as well. Great cocktails and nice wines to complement food. Never tried their desserts but they look delish. Plenty of parking , clean well-stocked restrooms and nice take out options that include wine and beer. Cannot wait to go again!

Exit 13 service was excellent. We were grabbing a quick dinner. The octopus was tender and tasty. Burger was prepared exactly how I asked. The fries were delicious and crispy. We finished with a smooth cup of coffee and chocolate lava and vanilla bean gelato.

Everything was truly great except for the noise. Have you considered sound dampening measures?
