    The Rittenhouse Grill is without question the finest steakhouse in Philadelphia. The food and service are excellent. The atmosphere and ambience cannot be matched. We are so fortunate to have a restaurant of this quality in our city. Whether it’s every day dining a date or a special occasion both else compares

    One of the BEST options in Phila. (I haven't tried them all) for quiet, romantic very special dining. The atmosphere is softly lit & quiet, the background 'soft jazz' music, & later the live piano music - same soft jazz & American playbook vibe, enhanced the atmosphere but did not intrude on conversation. The waitstaff was ever attentive but never intrusive. The food was plentiful enough to satisfy any appetite & quality enough to satisfy the pickiest epicurean. It goes without saying (but I'll say it anyway) the preparation & presentation was 'old school' in the very best sense. The cost, while not out of line with modern center city dining, delivers value but does make this more a special occasion dining event. For that - it's perfect.

    What a beautiful evening, with perfect service and attention to detail. The dining room is lovely, with music, as well. The prime rib and rack of lamb were perfect! Delicious oysters and lump crab to start. Even the mashed potatoes were perfect! Such a great place to celebrate a special night.

    Definitely did not meet our expectations. Our server was nice but definitely too busy to appropriately attend to us. Food was very below average.

    Chilean Sea Bass was the best I’ve ever had! Potions are great and atmosphere is one of the best in the City! Special night for hubby’s birthday. Live pianist and superb service. Flawless fun night!

    Although pricey, lovely ambience and awesome dinner. Perfect for Valentines and loved that we stayed at the hotel and didn’t have to go outside to get dinner. Quiet enough for conversation but also perfect dinner music. Walked across the hotel lobby and grabbed a drink at Spice Finch, also lovely!
