Went to Shulas on a recommend for a friend and was very disappointed. The food was cold and dry. The service was even worse. My father in law sent back his steak 3 times. Never going there again.

Cons: bad service, bad food

I can say my experience at Shulas was one of the best I have ever had. The steak was so tender that I didnt even need a knife. The servers made our group feel very welcomed and comfortable. Overall this is my new favorite place.

Pros: Beef, Service, free parking

Let me tell you, I travel all over with my job and never have had such an exceptional dining experience. The BBQ Shrimp all the way to the souffle was impecable. The service staff made me feel so welcomed as a single diner that everytime i am in the area I have to go. Hands down this is one of philadelphia's best hidden secrets.

Pros: Food, Service, free parking

Cons: Busy

The new york strip is great - flavorful and tender! Definitely worth the price. We had the creamed spinach which was also very good. I loved the dirty martinis here! What didn't I like? I think I liked everything. My only caveat is that every single wall has some type of football photograph/memorabilia, while tastefully done, even higher in testosterone than the average steak house and not an environment for romance. So take your buddies/family here.

Pros: Steak, Cocktails

Cons: Parking

This place is more an experience than a restaurant. The atmospehe is gentlemens' club and the service is top notch. The steaks cannot be beat. Dont' go overboard on the side dishes - they are served family style and are plentiful, easy to share. Our really friendly, attentive waiter told us what to expect and made excellent recommendations. You may not even need sides unless you get the small filet mignon. And make sure you try dessert - the creme brulee is excellent.

Pros: excellent food, great service, good atmosphere

Cons: high priced meat

I can't imagine what manbear is saying in his review of Shula's Steakhouse, "Good But Not Good Enough"!! Believe me, I have eaten at every steakhouse in Philadelphia, and although they are all good, Shula's is the best when it comes to the steak, and that is why we are there! Shula's steak was tender, juicy, and absolutely the best, heads above the others, and worth every penny. If manbear thinks that there is more value for the money at Morton's then he doesn't know steak. Additionally you can't beat the service at Shula's. My service experience at Shula's far exceeded the other steakhouses, including The Prime Rib. The only thing about the restaurant that I could do without is the football theme. The decor is club like, and more elegant than the football theme suggests. If you want a great steak, bypass the rest and go to this restaurant.

Pros: the steak, service, free valet parking

I love this restaurant. I am a single diner and love the convenience of Shula's to my home. Sitting at the bar, eating a great piece of meat and I am able to watch TV. This place is not stuffy. Great bartenders! Try the BBQ shrimp & ribeye steak - the most flavorful I've ever had. Penfolds by the glass! Bon Appetit~!

Pros: no wait!, tv's

Cons: pricey
