"I got the whole family together for dinner on the last night of Passyunk restaurant week. We were excited to get together and have some great food. When we arrived around 7pm, it wasn't that packed yet. Our waiter was a younger guy and super friendly. After we got a menu, he took our drinks. Drinks came and then our waiter didn't come back for awhile to take our food order. Food orders were taken and then it took about 30 minutes to get bread and another 15-20 mins to get our entrees. At this point, the restaurant was really filling up and getting noisy. You could only hear the person sitting next to you. Of the 8 of us, half went off the RW menu and the other half off the main menu. Everyone thought the food was delicious, but the winners were definitely the branzino and the rabbit ragu pasta. One unfortunate thing was when the entrees arrived, my cousin's pork chop came breaded and he specified that he has a gluten allergy. Thankfully my uncle swapped with him and all was well. Desserts came for those who ordered the set menu and were delicious! Bravo on the apple tart and cinnamon gelato! As I mentioned before my cousin has celiac so he just asked for the gelato. When it came out, it was a very small scoop (i guess equivalent to what the other ppl received to accompany the main desert). I just feel he could've received a larger/second scoop given that's all he was eating. Anyway these aren't deal breakers. We all enjoyed our food and would love to come back. I just wanted to point these things to help improve a nice place."
