   Food was outstanding. Service was great. But it was very very noisy. Could hardly hear my guest across the table.

   Outstanding. I’ve never had such a hard time selecting food, the menu was overwhelming with delicious options and the food itself was to die for. Service was attentive and professional, wine list was good. Music was a touch loud but we loved the beats so no complaints here. Do yourself a favor and book a reservation. You won’t be sorry.

   The ambiance, especially on the 1st floor, was rustic. The walls are lightly painted in white, which allows for the brown brick to come through. The floors and ceiling are wood in look. The top floor is smaller with traditionally painted walls but with ornate area rugs on top of the wood floors. Both floors have a tiny, but charming bar setup. The service was definitely elevated. It wasn’t the type of manicured and overly detailed service that you would find at a 5 star restaurant, but the arrangement of the cutlery, knowledge of the menu and the replacement of the cutlery for our entree was appreciated. Above all, the entire staff was friendly despite how busy they were. The food was familiar and at the the same time different as it was invigorated with surprising combinations of ingredients. I ate the pumpkin risotto with caramelized apples and chia seeds. A new way to experience comfort food. Also, the beer battered squash with apples, blueberries, in a maple butter spread is pallet satisfying.

    Maybe something was discombobulated. Arrived on time and waited nearly fifteen minutes after our reservation to be seated. The lobby was overwhelmed. Seated adjacent to lobby, next to bus station and directly across from bus station. Crowd at time spilled next to our table. Noise level and activity made conversation at table challenging. Wait time for food was significant. Server was fantastic and brought complimentary appetizer to the table. Food was fine - but don’t think it made up for the overall experience. Have enjoyed meals here previously.

    We arrived almost an hour early for our reservation and they were able to accommodate us. Everything was magnificent. We started with the labor of love and the cast iron rolls. I also enjoyed the broken arrow margarita. Amazing flavor with a kick. My husband enjoyed the lovebird and I wanted to lick my plate after the black truffle risotto with artichokes and lemon. So so so delicious. We finished with the warm bread pudding.

    We loved The Lovel! Our server Monica was so calm and personable and knew everything about the menu. The espresso martini was delicious and the cauliflower soup was so yummy. I got the fried chicken- boneless!!- because it's the signature dish and it was amazing. Husband got bronzino and it was perfect. Loved the lemon creme brulee dessert. I want to come back esky soon! Highly recommend The Love.

    I absolutely love Starr restaurants. My second try and The Love is ok. Cheese plate was excellent, Sazerac very good, meal ok at best. Service was good although it was clear that I didn’t care for my meal and the sides delivered. He didn’t even ask why, especially when one of the sides maybe had a bite from the dish. I probably won’t go back to this Starr restaurant again. Too bad because we did enjoy the ambiance.

    The Love has an appealing layout and is close to Rittenhouse Square. The tables and chairs are stylish and very comfortable. Food options are excellent, with many "comfort food" choices. The wine/beer list is most satisfactory. Our server was excellent, being available but not intrusive. We arrived for an early meal (5:30 pm) and the atmosphere was most agreeable. By 6:30 pm the restaurant had filled up with patrons and it was very hard to have a conversation because of the noise level (or, as restaurants call it "energy").

    We were sited next to the door entrance, with freezing temperature outside it was not really comfortable. Food requires special taste and I was not really a fan. Servers just did the minimum, but they were obviously not very happy to be there. I didn't experience the restaurant name "the Love". Finally, the cocktails they serve are good but expensive and they probably relate to the size of the bar where they come from .... tiny. The Negroni I ordered came in a glass that was half empty ... or half full maybe, but with a huge ice cube inside ......Next time I will ask for the other half .... or not, because I am not going back.

    Lovely table by a window view. Excellent- fast service. Appetizers were exceptional and full of delightful flavors. Entrees were generous portions and so interesting and fresh. Sides were perfect compliments. Dessert was decadent and totally unnecessary, but we loved them just the same. Wonderful experience- professional and polite, friendly waitstaff! Love the Love!

    I’ve been to the Love probably a dozen times. Food is consistently good, nice vibrant atmosphere. When I went for lunch yesterday with our table of 7, service was a little slow but our waiter gave us complimentary extra sides and a dessert without me even saying a word. He apologized for the delay and the gesture was greatly appreciated. I will definitely go back.

    First time there and it was a good time. The ambiance was chill with the right amount of light. The alcoholic drinks was watered down for the price they cost. The food was delicious with a nice variety to order from with fair prices. We would go again for the food without the purchase of drinks .

    The beet salad was spectacular, as was the pumpkin risotto. We also enjoyed the branzino and cocktails. The service was stellar, as usual. One miss of the night was the whipped potatoes which were positively drowning in butter. I would skip those next time.

    This was a special date it was my fiance birthday and our anniversary . The service and food was great but the seating is too closed in. I was great until the the waiter bought out the cake and candle he slid it and just left it was the worst part after such a great dinner. there was no happy birthday written or any sense of being part of the celebration at all. My fiance was so confused however i wont be back.
