- RRichardVIPPhiladelphia County •89 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoBardea Steak keeps getting better, if that’s possible. The menu has been slightly refreshed, but still offering our favs (house salad is fantastic, and an easy split if you want to indulge in an app or a couple sides). We had the loaded potato, an espuma cheddar-encrusted dream with a creamy sauce, a perfect compliment to our filets. The latter were the best ever, perfectly cooked and adorned with an incredible glaze - wonderful. The staff we interacted with, from the welcome, to our server and wine selection everyone was so friendly, professional and attentive. Seems they all truly enjoy their work and their place of work especially. That says a lot about providing a wonderful dining experience, which they certainly did.More infoBardea SteakPrice: Expensive• Italian• Wilmington•4.8
