Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in South Philly

The food and atmosphere was great! The service this particular time was slower than previous dining experiences there, but overall great place, especially with the Christmas decorations!

Great food. TJ’s service and attention was excellent.

Brunch before theater. The outside garden seating was a pleasant surprise on this cold November day, with a heated enclosure. The food and service was great as well. I had the chef special, grilled Morris steak, breakfast potatoes, 2 eggs, herb bearnaise - it did not disappoint and was plenty filling. My friend had the shrimp and grits which she also enjoyed. I recommend this dining establishment.

Great place with fabulous food. A little pricey, but that’s center city. Would definitely go back! Crab cakes and the swordfish were both delicious!!

Good food and good value for a pre-theater dinner. Waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. General commentary for most wait staff these days and a pet peeve of mine- like many others says “are we” when asking “we diners” a question. Not sure who instructed wait staff to say “we” instead of “you” but it’s incorrect. They are not at table with “us.” Endeavoring to Include themselves in the diner’s experience is overly familiar, incorrect and at times condescending. Nonetheless, They work hard. Tip well!
