   Outdoor seating is wheelchair accessible (not picnic tables as many Center City restaurants have adopted). Every single dish we got was delicious.

   The hostess was exceptional and was able to seat us long before our reservation as requested. The waitstaff was a little slow, but otherwise a very good experience.

   I'm not a big fan of the ala carte menu and think the priciness of the items wasn't reflective of the portion sizes. The service was great, and the servers were attentive. The location of the restaurant was convenient but had it not been that other restaurants weren't available at the time, I might not have ventured there. All that said, I did have a gift certificate, so it wasn't too painful.

   Striped Bass in the lemon beurre blanc is magical. I’m not a dessert person and the carrot cake with coconut sorbet is amazing. Everyone must try and these should never leave the menu!!

   Went for brunch to celebrate a birthday - had to wait almost 30 minutes for a table even with a reservation, however had no issues with this at all - a super busy day! Our waiter took our order quickly, but was not very attentive to us the rest of the time, we would have to flag him down for water or wait for him to return to see if we wanted dessert - again it was very busy. The food was delicious - the blueberry scones were warm and just perfect as were the fried green tomatoes. The lemon poppyseed pancakes were very good, but I think getting the cherry sauce on the side would work better. The ricotta ravioli was excellent! The cookie skillet is a must have!! Will be back again!!

   Ordered a mushroom risotto from the brunch menu. It was heavy, too salty and pricey. My guest had the scrambled egg breakfast which was better, more what we expected for brunch than any of the other menu items. Took a long time to get our bill.

    The restaurant was great. I was there to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday. We got a great table and great service. They even brought him a tiny cake with a candle. We order the hush puppies for appetizer and they were a bit salty for my taste. The ravioli was great and the Parpadelle pasta was itself was delicious but the sauce was a bit heavy. I ended having acid reflux after it.

    We were a few minutes late (traffic) and called to ask them to hold our reservations. They were really good about accommodating our request to hold our reservations. Front house staff was friendly and seated us quickly. The server was amazing: friendly, engaging and informative—and remembered from our reservation that we were celebrating a special occasion. The food was perfection, the beet salad was heaven and the miso collard greens will be the reason I return, with guests. It felt welcoming and warm, like I was visiting a friend. Highly recommend.

    We dined upstairs in the more private area which was quiet & provided nice windows for viewing the neighborhood. The service and food was the best we’ve had on this vacation to Philly. We will surely return. I am thankful to the person at Reading Market that recommended this delicious restaurant to us.

    My Wife and I went to The Love for our 3rd wedding anniversary. I had booked the reservation and notified them of the occasion without thinking much of it. To our surprise, after we were seated at a nice table outside, they provided a complimentary glass of champagne and desert. Exceptional service and delicious food. Will definitely return!
