Worst Swordfish Ever

by washan at Citysearch

The meal started well. The crab bisque and Manhattan were good. As a result, I was very disappointed in the swordfish entree and the sides that went with it. On the up side, every person that came to our table was very friendly.

  • Pros: Friendly and efficient waitstaff
  • Cons: Overpriced ill-prepared food
1 Star Rating: Poor

Nice staff-bland, boring, bad food

by jcinaltwnpa at Citysearch

Waitstaff was very nice and appropriately attentive. The food was not good. Salad was giant pieces of iceberg lettuce. Scallops were very bland except for the slightly fishy flavor. The spinach au gratin tasted like very old cheese was used. This was possibly the most expensive meal of french fries I have ever had!

  • Pros: Service
  • Cons: Old school, poorly made food

One of Philly's Best Kept Secrets

by Fairwind at Citysearch

The best Prime Rib in the area, if you are a meat lover, and I am. The best Fried Oysters, if you go for seafood, and I occasionally do. Actually, everything on the menu is very good, and the menu is extensive. The portions are very generous, and the prices very reasonable. The service is great, and if you go more than a few times, you will be known by name and treated as a regular. If it were located on the Main Line, you could never get a seat. Fortunately, it isn't, and you can normally get a table without a reservation. It may not have the finest of decor, but it isn't shabby either. If you go out to eat for atmosphere, go to the Four Seasons. If you want great food & service at a reasonable price in a homey atmosphere, give Lehman's a try.

Lehman's Tavern - A gem in Delco

by sisteroffire1 at Citysearch

Lehman's - good food at fair prices. Could use a little updating, but the decor is part of the charm. Have had a number of family events here (funeral lunch, anniversary dinners, etc.). Never disappointed. Also conveniently located near I-95. Helps to have reservations on the weekends. Also a great spot for lunch.

  • Pros: Good food and good service
  • Cons: kitchy atmosphere
