We’ve dined here before, but had Pizza and it was delicious. I tried the pasta special this time which was crab sautéed with pasta. It was so dry, I could barely eat it. I should’ve sent it back, but I don’t ever do that. I think we’ll stick with the pizza from now on.

About the restaurant

Neighborly meets sophisticated at Red Owl, a modern tavern in the heart of Old City, just across from the Liberty Bell. Among soaring windows and cozy tables, the kitchen serves up smart, stylish takes on American staples (a cheesesteak never tasted as good as ours, made with premium shaved rib-eye). When paired with craft beers and classic cocktails, it’s a clever balance of fancy and familiar, with a dash of Philly flair.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Very impressive evening overall. Our waiter had several tables so we had to wait for a a few minutes but after he connected with us, it was non stop service. We agreed when we come back, we want him. The food was very good and authentic. Their pizza does not disappoint! We will be back. We had initially made outdoor reservations, but due to the rain, we had to move inside; and guess what? We were not disappointed at all.

We had heard how amazing this place was but weren't quite sure what to expect. It's low key, simple, and casual but the staff was great and the food was absolutely amazing.
