Great food great service ambience is incredible. Make this your next steakhouse. Daily specials truly displayed the chefs culinary skills.

The cheetah carpet seems tongue-in-cheek when taken with the upscale piano bar atmosphere, excellent pianist, and sophisticated drinks. I had reservations elsewhere and only popped in for a drink but I think I'll be back for the food before long.

Waited 30 minutes between drinks with hardly anyone here. Another 25mins for bill Food was extremely overpriced and then server puts automatic 20% Will NEVER come back. I work nearby and will give business to other restaurants

Rittenhouse Grill is a classic steakhouse in the Warwick Hotel. I sat at the bar during happy hour enjoying the music, noticing the familiarity between the patrons and the bar staff. It is apparent that this bar has many regulars. It was a solid evening. I ordered the prime rib dip and was surprised how small the sandwich was for the price point. It was a delicious sandwich but not sure if it was worth the price point. The gin gimlet was super stiff. It was a bit difficult to drink. The service was fantastic - a jovial and fun bartender, but he stood alone. Everyone else went through the motions. It was fine.

False advertising - website and sign at the door says they have Sunday happy hour. Not the case when you get there, and they’re mean about it.

I have been to Rittenhouse grill multiple times before.Normally I have a great experience great service great food the staff is normally very welcoming.On my most recent visit however me and a few people that I was with had a very poor experience with one of the bartenders.We were basically ignored for quite some time when we walked up to the bar and the bar was not busy.In addition we asked if there were any happy hour specials or drink menu. One drink menu was placed on the bar not handed to us and it didn't include any of the specials or anything like that. We tried to get the bartenders attention to ask about any specials but she was too busy talking to someone at the end and refilling the straws in her container.Eventually my friend asked for all the menus that she had available after we waited over 10 minutes for the bartender to come back.Overall we just felt like she didn't want to be bothered with us for some reason which is a shame because we were there for an event.I'm sure I'll go back because normally I have a good experience but if I see that bartender I might choose another place for the evening.

Horrible experience!! Went there for dinner after reading the review but it was the worst decision ever. We ordered salmon fish, shrimps and fries. Salmon fish was totally tasteless it was so bad that we were not even able to finish the one bite. Shrimps were eatable. Fries were burnt. Overall they charge too much but the food that they serve is not the worth of money.

Drove two hours away to try this establishment for Valentine’s day. Service was slow, but food came out quickly. I had the crab cakes, they were okay.. nothing special. My husband had the rittenhouse chicken, he enjoyed it . The atmosphere was wonderful. The prices are definitely high, (11 dollars for a side of asparagus) . Overall, wasn’t too impressed.

I detected an odor of mold/mildew upon entering the front door. Later on it negatively affected my sinuses as I am very allergic. We ordered from the Sunday Special menu which we knew about ahead of time, but they do not push it at all. Our waiter was an idiot and called it “the discounted menu”. It took him about 5 minutes to find the Specials menu to give us. We had the clams casino and Caesar salad to start. They were OK. We then had prime rib ordered medium rare and Iberico pork chops ordered medium. They both came out rare almost raw. The prime rib was sent back to be cooked more. For dessert we had Key lime pie and cheesecake. Both were good. The bill came for our party of two with a 20% tip already included. We will not very happy and won't be back.

Good ambience. Food was average at best not well seasoned. it seemed as if they wanted to seat the black folks in the cocktail area by the piano and the front door rather than primary seating in the main dining room. We we were dressed well and asked to be moved.

The Rittenhouse Grill is was truly elegant and romantic. Live piano set the mood. Beautiful ambient lighting. Not to loud to converse. Our table order Ribeye steak (12 oz) Jumbo Lump Crab cake. Our sides were sautéed mushrooms, creamed spinach, roasted brussel sprouts and Corn. Just wonderful and delicious. Drinks were always filled up! Loved the excellent service and the kindness from the waiters and servers. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who loves elegant fine dining experience.
