Went here for our anniversary and it was great! The space
Went here for our anniversary and it was great! The space is so cozy and we loved the library vibe. We ordered the tomato salad, shrimp cocktail and porterhouse rolls for apps and they were all delicious. For dinner (pic) we ordered the ribeye (coo
As most have mentioned a reservation is required.
You have to ring the bell to get in. Cute idea but the wait detracts from the novelty of it. Like others have noted our table also wasn't ready at the specified time. We had to wait outside and were eventually let in and offered to wait at the b

Went to Alpen Rose for a birthday dinner and left pretty disappointed. The steaks weren't cooked as ordered - some came out too rare, others way overdone. On top of that, we were still eating when we were ushered to box up our meals and move on

My husband and I had our 5th wedding anniversary dinner here last night. We started off with a regular cocktail (no 21 and hubby enjoyed) and a zero proof cocktail, (one with the rose water) and it was fantastic! We split the bone marrow toast - the

In Philly's heart, where candles glow, Alpen Rose puts on a show. The bread? Like clouds from angels' hands-- Soft little pillows, no demands. Oysters rich in garlicked grace, Filet cooked right, a perfect place. Then came the cake, a bla
Great restaurant to celebrate any occasion.
Definitely more upscale than I'm used to. Great service. The restaurant itself gives a speakeasy feeling. Dark atmosphere. Low music. The food was very good. Only thing I don't like is that the sides are purchased separately from the main c
Do not go here
They are so unfriendly and so stuck on themselves. We could not get out of our RV spot because the way they did the roads and they’re blaming us because we drove over the grass. We have a 45 foot coach and that’s the spot they put us in where we

This place is beautiful! A small, quaint restaurant where you have to ring the bell to be let in. I thought that was so adorable. Immediately upon being seated we were greeted by our amazing waiter. He was attentive, helpful, and efficient. I came he
Starting with parking, it's philly.
Get to alpen and got in and the scene is pretty perfect. Low key at its finest. Got seated and the waitress was super cool. No fake smile vibes. We got an array of sides along with the filet and beef wellington. The experience is a great part of dini
Fabulous "special occasion" steak house.
Excellent meal only surpassed by friendly, competent service (shout out to Dana). Club ambiance without being stuffy.
Found this place from a social media profile I follow.
What sold it for me was the library of books. I knew I was gonna be in town for a Library conference and I always treat myself to a fancy meal a couple times of year. This means dressing up a little, no ripped jeans, tank tops etc. I tried making a r

My boyfriend and I ate here last year to celebrate our anniversary. We LOVED our experience, the ambience is nice and dark and intimate, music wasn't too loud which I always appreciate. He ordered the beef wellington and really enjoyed it. I ord
Terrible experience at expensive and over-hyped restaurant
One of our worst dining experiences ever. This fancy speakeasy has no name on the door, just a gold plaque with a rose on it. You have to ring the doorbell when you arrive and a secret panel opens in the door for the host to speak through. I found it
There are much better choices for a 300 meal.
First time here, won’t be back. Dry aged is the house specialty and they didn’t get it right. I ordered the dry aged rib eye medium rare. First time out, the meat was a true medium. With appropriate apologies, they cooked another. This came out a
Great food, good service.
Long wait for a table but once we were seated, everything was fine.
Had a group, family style dinner.
The food was phenomenal and service was excellent. Will definitely be back and highly recommend

This is in the top restaurant experiences of my life and I've eaten at Chez Panisse, Zahav, Vetri, Peter Luger (all fabulous) among other greats. The service is attentive, fun, and non pretentious. We sat at the bar and had a great time with Angelo,
Very cool speakeasy type restaurant.
They couldn't seat us initially so they brought us through the kitchen to the sister restaurant which was a very cool experience. Great food, very respectful and on-point servers, and good ambiance.
This is the perfect restaurant to celebrate a special event.
We celebrated our anniversary here and everything was perfect. You can believe the hype. Service was 5 stars. Our server was super friendly and very attentive. She even gave us a card for visiting! The restaurant was very cute and instagram worth
Cannot wait to come back
Fabulous !! It was wonderful ! 2 couples - started with the seafood tower ! Perfection - but so do not miss the bone marrow toast - we each had a little something different - cannot wait to come back !!!!

Had dinner this evening with my wife, daughter and son-in-law. Wonderful experience from beginning to end. A throw back to a by-gone era. You ring a door bell. A small door in the door opens to see who is there. The hostess welcomed us into the cozy
This place is awesome.
100% recommendation from me. We ordered a tomahawk, with mac and cheese and some square potato thing for our sides. We also ordered the bone marrow toast for appetizer. The tomahawk was amazing. Cooked perfectly with perfect sear and flavor. Th
Just an amazing meal all around.
I usually do not go to many steakhouses as I would prefer to grill myself, but this is the exception. I'm already looking forward to returning. We had the bone in NY Strip and Filet (photographed) with the Mac and Cheese as a side. The location itse
OMG The vibe here is amazing.
It is a hidden gem. I've walked past this place so many times and never knew it was there. You have to knock on the door and give your reservation name as a password to enter. It's really cool. This is a pricey restaurant but the food and experience
The ambiance was perfect and the food was even better.
It's a nice intimate restaurant with great service!
The food service and ambiance was amazing.
The atmosphere gives off speak easy while the service is nothing short of fine dining. Everything from the plates to the ambiance was perfect especially sitting close to the semi open concept kitchen. Huge fan and will be returning. Despite our reser

Staff are fantastic from time you are seated until you walk out the door. Ambiance is a take you back to times of privacy and special treatment. Can not speak enough about the bone Marrow app that would have never tried it the waiter did not highly

My partner and I came here for our anniversary and it was an awesome experience. It felt like we were in a completely different place the whole time. The interior was cozy and calm. Our server was incredibly sweet as well as the other staff members.
Ambience the best - Food subpar
Ate there last night. Great ambience and decor but one of the worst steakhouses I’ve been to as far as food goes. Got a NY strip Pittsburgh medium rare, it was about an inch thick if that and very tough to cut. The creamed spinach side dish was ser

This was my first time ever going to Alpen Rose and it was absolutely phenomenal. First off, the service from beginning to end was astounding. Our table wasn't ready yet and the bar was full so they took us over to Sampan so we could sit at that bar.

Superb.
Honestly, the best experience and meal I've had in a very long time. The second you walk into the door you are greeted with such a friendly environment that's classy and beautiful. The interior is small but the decor is classy creating a more romant

Total Disgrace!!
I flew in from Paris and was excited to invite my mother and family to Alpen Rose after hearing all the hype. A difficult reservation, but I thought it was worth it - oh wow, how I was so wrong. When we arrived we were informed through a hole in the
Awful service and drinks, sure place to ruin your special occasion
Me and my wife were super excited to try the new and exciting place in Philly. So I thought why not do it as a special occasion for her 50th birthday. BIG MISTAKE! We arrived for our reservation at 5pm on Oct 27th and we’re immediately rushed to ou

We love Alpen Rose!!!They are definitely giving Barclay Prime a run for their money. Barclay was our go-to steakhouse, but that rank has been usurped by AR.1. Cool speakeasy vibe, dim and intimate ambiance. It's a pretty small place. Bar seating is
This dining experience is special.

Visited here last week and didn't feel the meal lived up to the hype. We were excited to get a last minute reservation due to someone else cancelling. The service was friendly and professional from start to finish, but the food left much to be desire
HIGHLY impressed with this steakhouse.
Came in for a late night dinner (reservations are sparse and the restaurant is small/intimate). When we arrived, we rang a bell and the host opened a small window and asked for the name on our reservation. He then opened the door and allowed us in. T

Connect with users posting reservations for Alpen Rose Philadelphia
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Alpen Rose Philadelphia. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Alpen Rose Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Alpen Rose Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Alpen Rose Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Alpen Rose Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
