   Nice ambience, I just prefer slightly more light, and the cheese selection was delicious

   First time at Twisted Tail. 7pm reservations. Immediately sat upon arrival. Experienced and knowledgeable host. 7pm seating. Final plate came to table maybe 8:15p. I prefer the plates to come together but each item came out as it was done. Meaning some eating at the table some not / waiting. Food portions were plenty. I had short rib and sweet potatoes/ mac and cheese. Great with the cornbread. My counterparts had fried chicken, mussles, and crab ale which they all said was amazing. The punch bowls were a great saver for the table. Served about 5 people 2-3 cups of rum punch. I went during dinner hours. I think I will go back to experience brunch and some of the music. Couldn’t hear much on first floor dining. Just minutes away from Penns Landing and south street. Great before and after dinner walking and sight seeing.

   Our visit her was great. The server was very attentive. We have some food allergies so they made sure they understood exactly what they were. First time here and location is so inviting, the food was good. Will definitely return.

   The beef short ribs and the fish and chips were delicious. We very much appreciated the attention from waitstaff and the manager. The drinks were well-made and delicious as well. It was my second time here and was again a very good experience. We will be back.

   We were seated outside at 7:30pm, but no one ever came to our table—not even to pour water. Multiple waiters walked right past us without acknowledging us. After waiting 25 minutes with no service whatsoever, we finally got up and left. Truly disappointing. Will never return.

   Fabulous! The food at The Twisted Tail is absolutely phenomenal. You CANNOT get a bad meal there. If you haven't been there you must.

   We have been there many times. Food has always been top quality. You would think that for Easter brunch you would get a nice meal. Very very basic. That would have been fine, but not for $250 for four people. Four eggs Benedict and a small app & premade mini dessert. Not worth it.

    Food was excellent though service was a bit mixed. We shared a number of the small plates and enjoyed all of them. Cornbread was fantastic, BBQ ribs literally fell off the bone and were delicious. Also a wonderful whisky and scotch menu. Overall a great meal.
