Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Rittenhouse Square

The food was very tasty, but it lacked vegetables which is a sign of a balanced meal and a good restaurant. The service was fine ( they refused to replace one of the sides though that contained gluten). The whole cash only was very antiquated, but thankfully there was an ATM machine inside the restaurant (super weird). Also, we noticed this requirement completely by accident by reading a very fine print at the bottom of the menu. Luckily we had a debit card available. The place is pretty old and could use a renovation, but this is subjective and some people may like it. In Summary great tasting food in an outdated setting.

High quality Korean fare at reasonable prices. Nice array of free appetizers ranging from mild to hot. The spice hot level is a bit higher than some Korean restaurants. The bibimbap was good as were several of the noodle dishes. Overall a quite enjoyable experience.

Great neighborhood spot, always comfortable and cordial.

Good food and good value for a pre-theater dinner. Waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. General commentary for most wait staff these days and a pet peeve of mine- like many others says “are we” when asking “we diners” a question. Not sure who instructed wait staff to say “we” instead of “you” but it’s incorrect. They are not at table with “us.” Endeavoring to Include themselves in the diner’s experience is overly familiar, incorrect and at times condescending. Nonetheless, They work hard. Tip well!

We thoroughly enjoyed our burger and spicy pork tacos. We usually have the fried chicken and/or the ramen, but decided to try something different. We weren’t disappointed.
