Barclay Prime Philadelphia Reviews
Ed was our server.
We had a group of bartenders that never get a night off together there on Monday night 10/13/2025 to celebrate a birthday. Ed made our night. The service was impeccable. He was polite, personable and made us all laugh. We really appreciate you Ed and
Elegance and extravagance await at Barclay Prime.
Staff were all impeccable and the decor / atmosphere is warm and luxurious without being stuffy. You are very well taken care of here. Wagyu slider duo was tender, juicy, and rich. A sample of the flavor of wagyu beef allowed to shine. NY strip was

Service was outstanding.
Waitstaff in Philly and beyond should take notes from Ricky Grey. From the hostess to the sommelier, manager, and bussers, everyone was completely in sync and aware of what was going on at all times. They cleared the table between courses, DECRUMBED,
Excellent fancy steak night with a multitude of options and
Excellent fancy steak night with a multitude of options and a waiter who knew his stuff! He was able to speak about the different Japanese wagyu they offer and tell me subtle differences. They do have an extensive menu and it is on the pricier side.
So I am between a 3 and 4 star review here.
But if you've been to a good steakhouse this place really isn't worth the price point. We started out with the ravioli special, which if I'm honest this would be a five star review if we had left after eating just that. It was amazing.

Had dinner here with my family and we enjoyed the food, I would consider it on par with other steak houses. Based on our overall experience, there are probably better choices for a steak house in Philly but to be fair, the steaks (we had ny strips an

I worked late and my partner booked a table for 10PM (allegedly their final seating). We got there at 10:05PM following 2 failed Uber rides and congestion. Upon arrival there was no greeter - we roamed around searching for staff until 10:12PM when we

I enjoy a good steak and it was hubby's birthday and this was his request-a good steakhouse. Well, since we were visiting Philly I figured let's give this Wagyu cheesesteak a try! I have no pictures as we just enjoyed being present. To s
WHAT A GREAT MEAL!!! Wow.
I got 16oz of the American Wagyu ribeye cap, truffle whipped mashed potatoes, Kennet Square mushrooms, and east coast oysters, and the citrus cloud dessert. Absolutely phenomenal. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. This may have been the best ste

Get your wallets ready!!! But it's sooo worth it! We made reservations, you can either sit in the main restaurant or the lounge area. We sat in the lounge area because it worked best with our time line. For drinks we had the special old fashion,
Took clients here and every single person was floored.
Very good, great service and a unique casual upscale vibe. The food was amazing and every steak was done perfectly and all the sides were delicious. It was pricey but worth it!
Giving up on Starr’s mediocre dishes
I am not going to another overpriced Starr restaurant. Very very expensive while the dishes are mediocre to fair. Each restaurant I have visited is similar. Beautiful setting, very expensive, and mediocre dishes. Yawn
Steak and So Much More
I have been enjoying the fine cuisine at Barclay Prime for just over a year now. I met a great mixologist (Ruben) at Parc who informed me he was heading to Barclay Prime. He told me to stop in, as I had never been there. I am so glad I did! The foo
Phenomenal Foodgasmic Experience!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dined there last evening, a Monday at 7:30pm. It was opulent but not decadent or pretentious in decor. My employee New Year's dinner, a table for 15, was held in the main dining room, I think. Now for the real scoop. I had 2 Pink Dove cockt
A 70 th birthday celebration.
We celebrated a family member’s 70th birthday there. A fantastic experience. Our part ranged in age from 13 to 71. Everyone was able to find menu items to eat. Gabe our server did an outstanding job. The food was exquisitely prepared. We spent alm
Classic steakhouse
This is a high end, prototypical steakhouse. Servers are knowledgeable and attentive, wine selection is very good and steaks and side were all very good (rib eye for me, filet for herself). The server timing is good and you are not rushed at any time
This Philly Steakhouse is Amazing!
Best steak house experience I've ever had. Amazing filet mignon that I split with hubby. Daughter and SIL shared a rib eye. both were delicious, tender, flavorful and perfectly prepared. side Caesar salad that we split, along with the Mac and

This is a must if you are in town. First, the place is simply stunning. From the amazing bar and awesome bartenders to the incredible dining room you cant beat the experience. The servers were amazing too. The food is all first class. Maybe the
Great food, good service
Great food. Best lobster bisque I’ve had in a long time, Philly cheesesteak simply awesome. Seating comfortable and (just) far enough apart, though dining room noisy due to large groups. Service generally good but too many interruptions to check th

Let me start by saying that although I rated it a 4, I really see it as more like a 3.5. Decided to checkout Barclay's Prime based on Yelp recommendations and one from a friend. You enter the restaurant and it has what I consider the old school dimly
Amazing.
I have been here a few times in the last 6 months & it has been outstanding each time. Ambiance is dark & comfortable. Great music. Exceptional service. Food is other worldly delicious. The Barclay Prime Cheesesteak is a must. It is
I'm leaning more towards 4.
5, not quite a 5 star. We went for the experience to try the cheesesteak for bf's birthday, and were actually much more impressed than we thought we would be. I thought I had more pictures, but apparently I did not, so the only 2 photos are attache
Barclay Prime was a fantastic dining experience.
The food was amazing and the service was perfect. I was there with my family and my son drinks a lot of water and every time he turned around his water glass was filled that kind of attentiveness is worth every dime...

This places lived up to the hype and I really enjoyed my meal. To start we had the Caesar salad (7/10) and the Cheesesteak (7/10) as an appetizer. I'm not a huge fan of truffle or foie gras but it was good despite that. It basically melted in your mo

Review of Barclay Prime
Barclay Prime is elegant and top tier. I highly recommend making a reservation, as the restaurant was busy for a Wednesday evening, but using OpenTable makes this easy and convenient. I was greeted by a friendly host who welcomed me for my first dini
Great atmosphere with excellent service.
On top of that the food was delicious. I had the 16oz ribeye, the yellowfin tuna appetizer, and my coworker had the lamb chops. Everything was cooked to desired temps and tasted great. I probably would not order the yellowfin again, the portion wa
We come here for every single special occasion.
Dates, new jobs, engagement, holidays. They can't miss. The service and the food is incredible. Every single time. We've tried to venture out and switch it up. We were excited for Alpen rose. It was a bust. We were excited for steak 48. It was an ov

This place is AMAZING! The best service and food! If you live in Philly or are just visiting you must try Barclay Prime!!! I recommend the Caesar salad, salmon, fillet mignon, cauliflower and truffled potatoes!
This place is definitely overrated.
The service was great. The food was very expensive and was horrible. We ordered the cheesesteak which was $140. It was terrible, you can get a better one for five dollars in Philly. Chocolate chip skillet was horrible as well. They didn't say that th

Spent more than I planned here but everything was delicious! We got the seabass, lamb, and ribeye. IMO the seabass was incredible but others' favorite was the lamb. Ribeye didn't have the bone and while good it's most noticeable feature is being a
Great food and service.
Amazing food every time. The popovers are to die for. Steaks always prepared to perfection. Last visit, I had the Dover sole, which was the best piece of fish I’ve ever had. Wait staff is highly professional, attentive but not smothering. Highly re
Horrible experience- unusual for a Star restaurant but no one cared
We did not eat here as service was awful and walked out. This is to alert others. We were first given an awful table and asked to move. Out server was rude and insolent and could have cared less about us. I saw how other servers were treating guests
Casual elegance
We started with cocktails in the bar and they had top shelf liquors. We had rum old fashions. The tables were large with comfortable deep seating. Atmosphere was very nice and the service was fast and attentive all night. Seafood tower was fresh and
Barclay Prime- The Best Steak. Period.
Barclay Prime is a wonderful dining experience. I go at least once a year -- a special trip to Philadelphia to have a birthday dinner at Barclay Prime. The serve the best steak I have ever enjoyed. Excellent cuts, cooked to perfection. The wait
Spectacular
Food atmosphere and service spectacular. This was not my first visit and won't be my last. Steaks and sole are amazing, raw bar and salads on point. The bread service is dangerous, you could go just for that.
EXCELLENT
One of if not the best steak house I ever ate at. From the hot popovers to the filet Oscar Style the food was outstanding. The service was also outstanding.

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Barclay Prime 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

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 Barclay Prime 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 Barclay Prime 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
* MaternalRecord73, 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.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Barclay Prime 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 MaternalRecord73 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, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73'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 Barclay Prime 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.
