- JPJohnPIndiana •2 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoEnjoyed a really nice business dinner in the Philly location. Ambiance was impressive; the room is gorgeous. Our waiter was personable, efficient and sincere. Excellent service. The food exceeded our expectations. From seafood appetizers to Filet and NY Strip steaks to the delicious lobster mac and cheese, the food was the highlight of the evening. The food exceeded typical high-end steak house experiences. The Philly staff and kitchen are working together with cohesiveness.
