    First time experience and we will definitely be back again. Food cooked to perfection and we were even fortunate enough to have a brief but meaningful conversation with the owner.

    Great place to celebrate birthdays and other occasions. Food and service are outstanding. We love the piano player. The noise level is good and we are able to have a conversation.

    I met a friend for dinner and tried the Rittenhouse Grill for the first time. There was a problem with my friend’s cocktail but they quickly remade it for him. The wine list was a bit lacking for me given that steaks are a key element of the menu. He had the prime rib, I had the ribeye. Both were good, but not amazing. The ambience was very nice. The service was just okay. A solid option but not a special occasion place imho.
