Entering the Saloon, a family owned restaurant since it opened in 1967 is a bit like stepping into Philadelphia's past. Dark oak paneling, shiny brass and authentic local antiques create a warm congenial and casual atmosphere. The choice of two comfortable dining rooms each with its own vintage bars make dining and conversation a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Both bars feature a delicious and moderately priced food menu. The menu is Italian with seafood specials such as grilled octopus and dover sole. Saloon steaks and veal chops are legendary. Many prefer a plate of fried long hot peppers to compliment the steaks. All desserts and gelatos are made on the premises daily. The Saloon is a Philadelphia neighborhood bar and restaurant with a national reputation. And the parking is FREE!

    Had the perfect Valentine's Day dinner at the Morris! Shoutout to Becca the hostess, she made our experience so fun and kind from the moment we walked through the door! Drinks and food were delicious! We loved every bite of our meal! The service was amazing- every server and bartender were sweet, helpful, and friendly- I was I could remember everyone's names! We also stayed at the Morris House Hotel, but forgot a wine opener- No worries though because the Morris were more than happy to open our bottle for us! Would love to go again!!

    What an incredible restaurant. They have parking/valet options. Shoot out to Nick and Greg for taking care of the car. We got there early but they were able to seat us. They have high chairs for the little ones. Food is outstanding. Service is even better. Make sure you go, and go often.

    I love this place. Every dish is absolutely mind warping delicious. From the pasta with uni to the dreamy marbelized pink foi grois to that insanely heart of onioin crepe, myself and Rachel could not get enough. The service was wonderful. We loved Enrique. And we love that cozy magically lit home environment. It's our fave.
