This is definitely one of our favorite cafes in Center City. On a scale of 1-10, it is well deserving of a 9.5. Weekends are very busy, especially after 8pm, so arrive early for the best seats. It is small, but very intimate, and I love the decor. The food is great! I have eaten at budget-very expensive restaurants over the years, and this place wins hands down, to many of the top-notch restaurants, without having to spend the big bucks. Once the live entertainment starts, everthing else falls into place. The bouncers at the door could use a little more training, (somewhat rude), but otherwise its a great place for couples, singles or hanging out with friends...It definitely attracts a large after-work crowd.

Pros: Excellent Food, Good Service, Great Music

Cons: Parking
