My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and what a lovely visit! The food was so delicious and the best thing is that they split the dish for us when learning that we're sharing everything.

A couple weeks ago, I stopped in for brunch and ordered the shrimp and grits. They did a great job with the dish. They had a smooth sauce on them and were flavored very well. Nice work.

Laid-Back Dining at The Love
Nice atmosphere at this centrally located American restaurant in Philly. The Love offers a limited selection of starters and main courses, which I actually appreciate — focusing on fewer dishes allows for faster service and consistent quality. That

Food was delicious! We got the Posh breakfast and the shrimp and grits. Shrimp and grits were amazing! Enjoyed the virgin Bloody Mary which went perfectly with the shrimp and grits, and was nice and spicy! Service was also great and the setting was n

Food was great and and service was better. If you go, ask for Jess, she was an absolute delight. Fried green tomatoes were 10 out of 10. Perfectly prepared, crispy with great breading and pimento cheese on the side. Yum We also had the broccoli om

Heard great things about The Love, and chose mains here, after apps and cocktails at Harper's Garden. Great evening outside, under the heaters. Split a prawn and scallop lemon spaghetti, and a lemon and artichoke risotto. Absolute fire! Don'

We stopped by The Love on a normal Sunday night at around 8pm and the place was crackin'. We didn't have a reservation (table of 2) but they quickly found a table for us. The food was all very good, the service was great, and the atmosphere
We ordered the fried chicken.
The taste was at par but can vary at times. However, two times in a row I visited this restaurant, the Love, i got sick both times with diarrhea. They are probably not that sanitary when it comes to food prep. I have been to many of the Starr restaur
Truly lovely restaurant inside and out.
We were seated on the second floor, and they had an elevator to accommodate getting us upstairs with a stroller. They were also very accommodating to my 2-yo, having a high chair as well as kids bendable straw cups available with a lid. This honestly
Amazing food! Beautiful and comfortable inside.
5 stars to Johnny our server was incredible. Gave us great information to help choose our dinner! Tomato soup top 2-3 ever. Branding incomparable to any other I have ordered including in a top creation restaurant recently! Husband's rigatoni sh

Excellent casual brunch please-fun cocktails-savory and sweet yummy offerings-friendly service-can’t wait to go back again!
Absolutely fantastic brunch.
Last minute table ushered us right in. Savory. Delicious. Wonderful addition to Philadelphia dining scene. Any time of day, this is a wonderful option.
Dana was our server and she was great.
She gave friendly professional service throughout our meal. In addition there were at least two other employees who served our drinks and cleared dishes. This is fine dining combined with a friendly (Love!) atmosphere. We loved the corner spot we had

In Philadelphia with my wife and daughter for a long weekend and stopped by this funky bistro near Rittenhouse Square. The downstairs was happening but a bit cramped so we were taken upstairs. The upstairs dining room is quiet, almost too much so, bu
Fun atmosphere! Brunch was pretty yummy.
Turkey sandwich was 7.5/10 but burger was 10/10
Stopped in to grab a pre dinner drink.
Was able to sit right away at the bar, which was dimly lit with a beautiful lighted up alcohol wall. The bartender was nice, answered our questions and served us right away. While the bartenders started off good, it was tough to get their attentio
Food is always good.
Atmosphere is very relaxing. Music is a vibe. Drinks are great. Service is to top notch.
Charming and fabulous dinner in the city of brotherly LOVE
Perfect celebratory dinner at The Love. Our server Lauren was lovely and our table was cozy and inviting. Favorites were the mushroom soup, house made ravioli and the fried chicken. Great cocktails and wines by the glass selections. My pet peeve abou
Great restaurant, fantastic staff
Really great service , fantastic waitress. Food was excellent, one of us had chicken , one salmon. Just a really nice feel. Sat outside, watched the world go by
Huge beet salad
Shared the fried chicken and beet salad… very big portions and delicious. White meat chicken wasn’t dry at all. Drinks good.
Keep this restaurant on your must-try list
Had dinner at The Love and it was excellent. We had homemade Ravioli (it is made daily upstairs) and Crispy Branzino with veggies over couscous. This may have been to best meal we had in Philly and that’s high praise as it’s quite a foodie tow
Comfort Food at its Most Artful
Our friends call this restaurant 'a personal favorite' and after sharing a meal with them there, we couldn't agree more. A frosty winter's walk brought us to the doors of this charming place, where we were warmly greeted upon arri
Delicious dinner and a spot with a cool vibe

Excellent food. Gracious service.
I visited for the first time with my husband and another couple. Among us we had fried chicken, salmon, shrimp and scallop pasta, ravioli, Parker house rolls, chocolate chip cookie, wine and mocktails. We were 100% happy with all of it. My only compl

We were staying nearby The Love and visited early evening. The food was exquisite and we had a very nice bottle of wine to accompany it. We split a corn bread as an appetiser, it was truly delicious. The service was friendly and attentive. We reall
Exceeded My Expecations
Wow, wow and Wow. I loved my meal and experience here. They served the best grits and chicken I have ever had anywhere. The grits was an experience all by itself. Looing forward to returning in the future.
OMG sooo good
We have been here multiple times for brunch, lunch and dinner and it has always been wonderful. Today’s lunch burger was terrific and the shrimp was sublime but the best part was the frozen rose. Can’t wait to go back.
Have to give The Love a Lotta Love!!!
Went in with y wife tonight for the first time. Walked in for 5:30 reservation and were seated immediately. Greeted by our server Dylan who was prompt and professional. Had the "Broken Arrow" Margarita that was on the special drinks list (a
Fantastic
Fantastic meal served at the Love. We shared the hush puppies, savory delights with honey butter and love bird, fried chicken included greens and grits. So flavorful. Great service and ambiance. Drinks were pretty tasty also! We will have to go back
Wonderful out of town date night!
Great date night - food was delicious- we shared 2 appetizers and an entree and loved it all (especially the salmon with curry). A couple nice NA drinks. Wait staff was great. Wish we could go again tonight and try more choices off the menu!
Enjoyable meal
Had dinner here with my wife, and it was a very enjoyable meal. Food was very good, service was superb. Two issues marred the experience - my entree came out lukewarm, and the prices are high for what they provide. As an example, the cheese board is
Magic
We were a walk-in 2 top on a rainy Thursday evening. We arrived shortly before 5pm and were greeted by a friendly hostess who made us feel welcomed! This right there set the tone of the evening. Right at 5 pm we were seated at a cozy table for 2. The
Flavorful Food!
The food is bursting with flavor. Shrimp and grits = phenomenal. This is a great place to eat. The customer service I received from Monica was excellent!
Our favoriteWe loved the Love. In fact, it was our favorite restaurant from our five days in Philadelphia.
Every time we visit Philly we try at least one or two Steven Starr restaurants; we can always trust the quality and experience. The Love was no exception. We loved the Love. In fact, it was our favorite restaurant of our five day visit to Philadelphi
Business friends or couple date- delicious high casual spot
Ample portions and fun lively vibe at this indoor outdoor dining spot in a great location in Rittenhouse Square. The burger was 100, great service, packed at 12 on a Thursday. Huge menu. Awesome
I've eaten here a number of times and my favorite meals
I've eaten here a number of times and my favorite meals rotate. Initially, the Shrimp and Grits were the start of the show. The shrimp taste incredible and the sauce is out of this world. The grits are where the dish dies unfortunately. I'm not sure

Had a great time catching up with my friend over some delicious food. I had the burger, which came with a side of potatoes. They even gave us a complimentary dessert! I will say that service was a bit slow and the website is a little misleading. The

This was an average brunch and I expected way more!Service was nice, but oh so slow. It took about a half hour to bring our bacon app to the table. The candied bacon was absolutely delicious so that was the redeeming factor. The shrimp and grits... p

This was a great place to dine.
Great for date night and going out w friends but not a place to take little kids. Important bc this place came up when filtered for Good for Kids. They do not have a kids menu nor little kid food options. Fortunately I made it work and the server wa

If I had one last meal in life, I'd want it the Tuna Crudo and the Branzino. SO good. Service was stellar and the people were friendly. The ambiance with the white wash bricks were beautiful, warm, and inviting, just like the food. I will be returnin
Great service from Mori.
Great bartender. Amazing espresso martini. . I would definitely come back if I visit Philly again. Love from Las Vegas.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Love. 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 The Love. 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
* EternalAnt36, 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.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at The Love. 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 EternalAnt36 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, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36'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 The Love. 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.
