After appetizers, we waited over an hour for our entrees. Our server said a large party had put their order in right before ours. I would hope that a restaurant this of this size and reputation could either handle the four additional steaks we had ordered or make our wait worthwhile. When our food finally arrived, three of the four steaks were grossly overcooked. The server removed only one from the table and said she would take it off the bill. When the bill did arrive, it included an additional $15 charge for the mashed potatoes the waitress said she would substitute for two of the steak's mushrooms. All in all, the food, service and price were unexceptable. With so many great italian restaurants and steak houses in Philadelphia, why would anyone choose The Saloon?
Pros: Ambience
Cons: Poor service, Overdone steaks, expensive
