    Really cool spot atop a pretty new skyscraper. Great views of downtown Philadelphia and the surrounding area, but the food was just as good! Will definitely go back on my next visit for drinks and dinner!

    First off I have only been one time, but I live out of state so I'm not likely to be able to go three times in a six month period to be super fair with this review. That said it was fantastic, fabulous and fierce! The service is incredible, the bartender is top notch & has a wonderful singing voice, even our table support staff got caught humming or singing as they worked, then our servers each belted out amazing ballads. While I didn't have the opportunity to peek into the basement kitchen, I can only surmise they are happily listening to heavy metal and have voracious appetites for culinary knowledge. The overall experience was delicious and delightful. We hope our next visit will be extremely similar and sooner than later.
