Husband and wife team and long-time Philadelphia residents, Chris and Caitlin Rorer, have decided to take the plunge and open their own creative food concept at 17th and Lombard St. just outside of the Rittenhouse Square section of Center City. The Rorer’s didn’t want their restaurant to look like anything else in Philly and took the time to completely renovate the space and use some of the existing aesthetics to create a truly one-of-a-kind experience for every guest. With strong family values and a desire to bring an eclectic menu specializing in farm fresh ingredients and unique takes on old favorites, Chris and Caitlin want everyone that walks through their doors to enjoy a great meal and a good time.
Neighborhood tavern with American comfort fare in an eclectic art gallery space Based on 226 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.8 stars. Price $$

This quaint spot is like a hidden gem. The atmosphere is like going to a friend’s place and just hanging out. Just mellow vibe and the staff is very friendly and personable. The music selection is spot on for the vibe and they have games just hanging around. This place would be awesome for casual events or parties.

I had the Buffalo Cauliflower Salad and Dad burger. Food was solid and service was nice. Small happy hour menu for small bites and some drinks. They had board games which didn’t seem to fit the decor but was fun to play while waiting. A good casual spot for a quick bite and beverage
