   Overall, our dining experience was outstanding. the meal was excellent. Our only complaint was the cost of the bottle of wine. Del Frisco's charged $ 70 for a bottle of wine that retails for $ 10 - 14.; a 500-700% markup. Clearly outrageous.

   Overall, I had high expectations coming into the restaurant. However, we were a little disappointed about our experience. The caveat is, we went to the restaurant during restaurant week, so I am not sure if that affected or experience. The service was average at best, for example, we took almost 20 minutes to be served at our table. In addition, we noticed that the table next to us Was offered extra sides and given preferential treatment (perhaps it was because they were a bigger party). With regards to the food, we found it heavily salted and almost disappointing. I think the restaurant does have potential and overall beautiful. However, my personal experience was disappointing.

   We visited on a cold, blustery Wednesday evening for Center City Restaurant Week. We arrived a little early before our reservation, so we sat at the bar for a drink and an appetizer. The ambiance is stunning. High vaulted ceilings, romantic dim lighting, and beautiful architecture that creates a warm, vibrant atmosphere. Our bartenders were personable, attentive, and knowledgeable of the menus. The oysters casino were delicious! I haven't seen oysters prepared this way before, like clams casino. We were promptly seated at our table downstairs in a cozy booth. Our server Erica was wonderful, checking on us frequently and meeting every need we could possibly have. We ordered off the Restaurant Week menu, 3 courses for $60, which is a great deal. The dynamite shrimp were our favorite! We could have made a meal out of that appetizer. they were sweet with the right amount of kick. The meatball was very good as well. My 8 oz filet was outstanding! A beautiful cut of meat cooked to perfection that melted in your mouth. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his double bone in pork chop, a substantial cut of meat. The sweet potato casserole was to die for. We ordered without marshmallow. For dessert, we ended with the chocolate mousse and butter cake. The chocolate mousse was very good and rich. I would highly recommend the butter cake. It was lightly crisp on the outside and creamy deliciousness on the inside. Portions were small for dessert but perfect for one. The coffee to accompany our dessert was hot and rich like I prefer. The manager rounded on patrons, making sure everything was perfect. As I am writing this review, I am plotting when can I go back? It was a perfect evening and we left very pleased and happy. This restaurant is good for couples, groups, and single diners. I would highly recommend for a beautiful night out.

   Upon arriving at the restaurant, we went to the bar because our entire party wasn’t there. We were told no rush go have a drink. We all arrived and we were only a party of three. We had time to order one drink and barely pay for it when the host told us our table was ready.. And stood behind us until we were able to pay. When we sat at the table, we did not realize it was restaurant week, but upon being handed the restaurant week menu it was perfect for us because we all had bariatric surgery. Although the server was good, the restaurant was very cold and our food also was cold.. We did not complain, but just to let you know we were rushed through our dinner and felt like we were on an assembly line having to order her entire meal at one time. Not the service I would’ve expected from this restaurant. Also keep in mind it was 15° outside. I walked from work so I bundled myself up. I had a hat, scarf and gloves on pawn arriving to your cold restaurant. I was asked to take my hat off. I said OK I am. I wanted to go to the ladies room as we all no hats, cause static electricity, and I was just gonna fix my hair in the ladies room when I took the hat off, but I was told to take it off at the door very unprofessional. But our overall experience, the server was very nice, but we were rushed, felt like we were on an assembly line and the food was not at all hot plates were, but the food was not. Also, I asked to have my food wrapped the girl said to me do you want the potatoes? I said why sure she took my crabcakes and the potatoes and smashed them into a container that wasn’t edible not good.

   The restaurant is so loud you have to yell to have a conversation. The wait staff takes forever to come back. The food was incorrect and by time it went back my wife already finished her meal. Also just touching a railing for the stairs fell off the wall. Barely missing my wife feet.
