Really great atmosphere. The room is open yet not too loud. The lighting is relaxing, and the staff were friendly and professional.

The food is easily shareable or eaten separately depending on your mood. The flank steak and the cauliflower were specifically excellent.

Nothing was bad and ther...

Hip, fun place with good drinks and food. Lively scene with a good crowd and no attitude from the staff. There's a large open area with a center bar and seating on the main floor and a more intimate lounge-like area downstairs...with a bowling alley off to the side and pool table. Fun place to spend...

You'll miss it if you don't know where it is. The plaque is on the wall so it's easy to pass by.

Once you're inside you quickly forget you're only minutes away from center City.

It's design and decor are unique and comfortable. The food equal to it's surroundings.

Great spot for large parti...

The food was great, but it is so dark and so loud in here, I went with a large group and it made it hard to enjoy the experience since it was very hard to have a conversation being unable to hear or see anything. I think it would be much better for a smaller group.

I don't even know where to start with this place! The food, the service, the ambiance- nothing short of amazing! I recommend making a reservation (which we did) and we got seated right away. Our server Corey (spelling?) was fantastic. He was so friendly, knowledgeable, gave recommendations, and answ...

Visiting from NY my boyfriend chose this location for my birthday and let me tell you it was by far the best meal we have ever had together after the plethora of restaurants we have tried over the last year . We arrived a little early and our table wasn t ready yet so we sat at the bar and ordered 2...

I went here for restaurant week. We had 7 items on the menu. It was a good meal with some amazing dishes. I did not get to try a lot of the meat dishes because I was with a vegetarian but I'd highly recommend the restaurant regardless.

The food was fantastic, and I have severe allergies they accommodated. This is why they get the extra star.

However, we were a group of 18, and when we wanted to split the cheque at the end, we were told no. We were told that they could only split the cheque 4 ways. However, we are all on a busin...

Really good brunch buffet! It s a little tough because there s so much food to choose from, but nice that you get a little bit of everything that you re craving. We sat in the front room where it was nice and sunny, but closer to the buffet the main dining hall was pretty dark. Food was good, just b...

Solely going off of my restaurant week experience - the best Philly restaurant week meal I've ever had! You get 8 dishes (I went with 1 other person and you pick for the table - you choose plates for every 2 people)

One of our guest of our party of four is a vegan and they had options for her. The chef had a great way of presenting the dishes and the drinks we're very well made. Great t...

The restaurant week menu online did not specify this. The food and drinks were wonderful, and the courses were enough f...

A delight to the eyes and palate!

To begin, this place is deep into Rittenhouse so parking is scarce. I ended up parking past Lombard and walking the blocks just to avoid having to circle around. I would say to plan ahead for street parking if you have a reservation or bite the bullet and pay for...

This is just a peek at the sumptuous interior of Harp and Crown. It never ceases to amaze me how you were in Philly when you opened the door and stepped in, but once inside you find yourself transported to another place and era. I absolutely love the food, drink, atmosphere and decor. Seriously chec...

Very enjoyable dinner during restaurant week. We selected 6 courses to share. The portions were generous. The standouts were the tuna with puffed rice, avocado and crab bread and the mac & cheese. The meal came with a complimentary piece of chocolate cake.

Great experience! Food and ambiance were excellent. What would have brought it to 5 stars would be if the servers could actually remember who ordered what. We had a party of 10. Every time a food runner would come out we had to play the game of who ordered what.

Went for brunch with friends, brunch is fantastic, the food is really good. Though if you are vegetarian, might not be the place for you, my sister was not happy with the selection. Also, if you are on a diet you'd probably have to take this a cheat day, not cheat meal. Staff was great, except front...

This is a rather fancy bar/restaurant. I read in the description that it had a bowling alley, so thought it would be pretty casual. The hostess was rather dismissive and rude to me, likely because I was not appropriately dressed for the occasion. I was about to walk out, but the manager rushed in an...

The portions are small the way their menu set up is different from the standard so essentially you share 6 dishes between x amount of people versus what I'm used to where i pick one from either three or four courses and the other person chooses one that can be different ...

Went for Restaurant Week and it was great! Had a party of 4 and the 6 courses were just right. Didn't walk out bloated and didn't walk out hungry. Food was good, steak a bit under seasoned but cooked well. If you're thinking of going, just go.

The atmosphere is top notch and it just keeps going up from there. If you can't decide what to get, the chefs tasting menu will leave you happy and full. Literally all of their drinks are TO DIE FOR, and the staff is amazing. 10/10 we will go back.

Been here for dinner and most recently for sips. The sips menu was great value for money overall, but the empanadas were an outrageous ripoff. For $3 you get 3 very small pieces that taste like something you d buy frozen and microwave. For $5 you can get a generous portion of Mac & Cheese that is d...

It's too affected/curated and it ruins the dining experience.

Cons:
The security detail they have for this restaurant is ridiculous. They chose form over function.

Do not have dinner at the two-top tables along the banquettes. This is the worst idea I have ever come across in a restaurant set...
