This place was good, just limited from a vegetarian POV.
It's located right next to Rittenhouse Park - which is awesome! We went during a great evening weather wise, so enjoying the ambiance of the park after dinner was perfect! That being said, I parked about 5 blocks south since parking is slim pickings for the area.
We were seated in the private dining space which is sectioned away from the main dining hall and it has its own entrance. This was nice since the staff serving us was also dedicated to the area instead of having to manage both ends.
Once seated, it took a bit to have a server ask for drinks and for our order (around 20 minutes), but the waitress was nice and thorough nonetheless.
For my starter, I ordered the pea and asparagus soup. It's served hot, and it definitely incorporates the flavors of the veggies well. The pairing of the pea and asparagus is satiating and the use of the spices is very complimentary and not overbearing.
My entree was a pasta dish - served with fresh steamed veggies and just the pasta water as a sauce. It was well seasoned and enjoyable. I appreciate a pasta dish not being too heavy, so for me the water as sauce was great! It was mild for my taste buds, so I did ask for red pepper flakes but I was never served them! I ended up borrowing black pepper from a neighboring table to add some spice. Our entrees were also served with mashed potatoes and grilled broccoli (paired with a garlic sauce) for the table. The charred broccoli was great! Love the crunchy texture and different flavor the broccoli takes on when grilled.
For dessert, coffee was optioned along with a selection of cakes. The cakes did have eggs in them, so they were able to provide me a few scoops of different flavored sorbet. The sorbet was much creamier than I anticipated and overall great end-cap to a meal!
In the end it was an enjoyable dinner. The service was decent though slow and they did forget about my red pepper flakes.
All in all, this is a steak house so the offerings are limited for vegetarians, but I would say its still a solid option for its location, ambiance, and overall flavor profile.
