"I went to Philly G's twice last week. Once for lunch and once with my wife for dinner. I thoroughly enjoyed both visits. The service was gracious and appropriately attentive. The food was very good. I really liked that the restaurant was not stuffed so tight like a number of popular restaurants that it gets noisy and you get jostled. I will definitely recommend Phily G's."

"took the entire team for some birthday celebrations and they did put us in our own room. prices were very reasonable and the food was good. our waiter was very personalable but service was very slow. actually had to find our waiter and ask where our lunch was at. they were not very busy so there should have been very little excuse as to why it took so long to receive our food. served us our drinks, took a while to come back for orders and never came back to check on us until I said something about getting our lunch. They did provide for the birthday's and my team enjoyed the luncheon. wished it had gone a little faster though was late getting back for meetings and had scheduled enough time, under normal conditions. this was just slow."

"Food is always good--there are large and big rooms so you can have a party for 8 or a party for 50. During the summer it's nice to eat out on their deck overlooking the water fountain.

"Our experience at Philly G's was wonderful. I brought a group from work. The food was excellent. I had the risotto special which was tasty and well priced. The service was helpful and attentive. The atmosphere was perfect and the layout of the restaurant makes it seems like each room is a small restaurant despite the fact that it is a fairly good size. It would be nice for a large group or a small romantic dinner."

"I really loved the atomsphere and the people were friendly. The food was very delicious, the Flaming Asiago was my favorite. I even ordered dessert after having most of my meal packed up to take home I was so full. My husband is very particular about connolies and he just loved the ones at Philly G's."
