what? I cant hear you. Outstanding dinner, amazing menu and top notch service. all of this wasted as this is by far the loudest restaurant of this type we have ever been to. Love the BYOB, we had all three courses. Then had a ringing in our ears for the first hour after we left.

Inventive BYOB, works with whatever is in season and so menu changes frequently, if not daily.

imaginative menu..reasonable size portions, excellent ingredients and lovely presentation. well worth the cost - which is a bit on the high side compared with a few of the nearby places and with ernesto's [its predecessor]. byob is an attraction.
the decor is pleasing and staffing is more than adequate.
all in all, a delightful dinner. and a 6 pm start was just right for a relaxed dinner prior to orchestra. will surely be returning.

Menu was too limited to appeal to many of us. Not sure I will be back if they continue with this small and unusual menu which is a shame since it is so convenient to the Kimmel and Academy.

Nice addition to the farm to table, BYO scene. Russet should enjoy a great deal of success.

I went to Russet thinking I was late for a reservation, but was early, a week early :/ They were very accommodating and kind. The food - AMAZING. I could never dream up the ingredients that they put together to make their dishes. The scallop that I ate was caught off the coast of Maine 11 hours earlier. The veggies - local and fresh. They really do farm to table well. I wish I had room for dessert. I love how the menu changes daily as well. Can't wait to go during my ACTUAL reservation.

My husband and I tried Russet for the first time two nights ago. I enjoyed the spinach souffle dish very much and also my red snapper, though a little too salty. A few more vegetables and a bit more starch would have been appreciated. Bread was way too skimpy. My husband's pork belly was fatty, didn't have much meat. Also too salty.
I asked for a sugar substitute for coffee because I cannot have sugar, I was told that you didn't offer anything that wasn't a natural sweetener. You may have to rethink that. Suggest one fresh fruit dessert.
What is the role of the young man walking around the dining area, as he never spoke to us, never asked us anything. He was mostly with the hostess. I do plan to have another meal there, though.

Quiet
"
This is a cute BYO that feels as if you are dining in someone's historic Philadelphia brownstone home. I thought we would run into a pre-Kimmel-show crowd, given it's location and our early dinner reservations, but only one table was occupied when we arrived and only one other was seated during our meal.
It was nice because it made for a very quiet dining room. Service was good, knowledgeable about the menu, pleasantly friendly. Food was very good. Especially the Nettle Chitarra pasta with butter poached scallop. The Beef Daube was tender and flavorful, but the chef could have dialed back the salt a bit. The menu changes daily, so don't expect the same selection. Selection is small though, only a few appetizers and entrees to choose from.
