Tucked away in the Kimpton Hotel Monaco, this little gem of a spot really packed a flavorful punch! I really enjoyed the wedge salad with chicken. The Tavern Burger was cooked perfectly and so very flavorful! Of course the Whiskey on the rocks was a nice addition to this meal. They have a very large selection of whiskeys from all over the world and labeled as such! Staff was attentive and kind.
Service was great. Our waitress was prompt and engaging. Food was really good, but not off the charts. Would recommend the pork belly burnt ends and the bolognese. Burger was way over seasoned. Nice selection of whiskeys.

This is an amazing delicious restaurant! We had the philly cheesesteak which was phenomenal and the fried chicken sandwich was so great too. I highly recommend it!

Staff was friendly and helpful, Food was delicious. A bit pricey. I had the bougee Ben burger and wedge salad. The angry crab fried were amazing. From 4 to 5 it was very busy and noisy.

I got my order to go as it was just a short walk back to my hotel. I ordered a drink expecting it to take a while, but my order came pretty quickly. The fries were crispy and well seasoned. The burger was only slightly pink (that's how I like them) and very juicy. Bun was tasted just right. The burger toppings and sauce made it all come together. My only complaint is that it was pricey, in my opinion, over $20. But i guess for downtown Philadelphia it was on par. Pleasant staff, clean, food food, and quick. I would eat here again.

The food we ordered was amazing ! For appetizers we got fried meatballs. The meatballs themselves were delicious but they were too small for our liking. For our entree we ordered the bougee Ben burger. The avocado was an extra charge (don’t remember how much). The burger was juicy, flavorful and filling. The fries were also really yummy. We also had refills on our soft drinks. Highly recommend. If I could, I would give it a 4.5 because of their seating. It was a bit cramped, everyone can over hear each others conversation. Overall, definitely one of the best burgers we’ve had. We can’t wait to come back!

One of my favorite places to chill ????
From Red Owl Tavern
"The restaurant's superior details—hand-crafted cocktails, house-cured charcuterie, butcher-shop cuts of steak—make it a neighborhood respite. We do our best to accommodate the individual tastes and preferences of our guests with a variety of vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free menu options. That’s how Red Owl manages to be old, new and free-thinking all at once. Just like Philly."

I enjoyed a great brunch with my honey!
The waiter was great, the food was good, and the drinks were divine. I tried their seasonal blackberry cider; it was refreshing and tasty. My husband had their seasonal guava IPA; he said it was fruity and full of flavor. We shared the grilled cheese with brisket; it was the best sandwich I had in a long time. I wish they were open for dinner; unfortunately, they are close on Sundays at 3 pm (please reconsider). Overall, it was a great experience, and we will be back!

The waiter was very thorough and was great with the service!! The atmosphere was very nice. A bistro setting. Upscale and has a rustic tavern look to it. The appetizers; perogis, were made in house. The short rib gnocchi were out of this world delicious! The lamb fell right off the bone! It was a great food experience!
