My experience was marked by a personable and knowledgeable waiter who graciously provided insightful suggestions. Opting for the chef's tasting, the standout recommendations were the exquisite mushroom toast and delectable duck. Culminating the meal with the apple tart proved to be an excellent choice, adding a sweet crescendo to the overall gastronomic affair. The combination of attentive service and noteworthy culinary selections rendered this dining experience notably enjoyable. My only gripe was the original seating location, next to the window on an extremely cold day. We were able to move to a table further from the window; however, I would have expected for the hosts not to seat guests next to the window on a cold evening to maintain customer comfort. I would recommend this restaurant for a group outing and date night.

Had a great dinner with a friend during restaurant week. Cozy atmosphere. The drinks were great. Mussels were delicious but the bread was a bit stale. The arugula salad with peach was so simple yet an amazing combo.

Tonight, I did a spin around the block to check out dinner at Twisted Tail and listen I was pleasantly surprised 🔥 Some of the best fried chicken and BBQ smoked ribs you can find in a restaurant right now in Philly -- y'all, I'm shook! ❤️ Definitely a vibe for the fall, and yes, that's a punch bowl for the table ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very loud upstairs but it was an enjoyable experience with the live jazz on Friday night. The food was exquisite and highly recommend the chefs menu where you get to try most of the dishes. The dessert was an apple crumble with in house made ice cream!

Great value for Restaurant Week in Philly Center City 2023! I came here with a friend and we left pretty full and satisfied! The meats were especially good as the short rib and steak were cooked and flavored very well. The wings and Crawfish macaroni and cheese were also highlights (and as someone who doesn't like seafood, I was pleasantly surprised with my enjoyment of the Crawfish Mac and cheese!)! One small disappointment I have is with the chorizo taco - the meat was a bit dry, and the sauce didn't help as much as I would've liked. Also, while the shishito peppers were good, we actually had too many which made it a bit difficult for me personally to get through the rest of the courses (I had to pack up my dessert because I was so full by the end! Other than these minor gripes, we were happy with the food, service, and overall atmosphere of Twisted Tail! There was even a live guartist who played towards the end of our stay which was a neat touch. Overall, I may come back to try some new dishes!

We enjoyed a Saturday jazz brunch and were so glad we went! The service was perfect - attentive but not smothering. The music was wonderful - spirited but no so loud that conversations were strained. The food was incredible! We started with steak tartar which was perfect. I am allergic to capers, so they remade the mustard sauce to accommodate my allergy - much appreciated! My husband’s biscuits & gravy topped with eggs was beautiful and tasty. My fried chicken and sweet potato steak fries were fantastic - some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had.

This Sunday I had dinner with a friend., at the Twisted Tail. I’d been there before. We choose the tasting menu. Our choices included Caesar Salad , baby lamb chops, roasted Duck Short Ribs & a luscious dessert. Everything was cooked to perfection. The service was excellent, Even the live band & singer on key. ( Sorry couldn’t help myself ) I Highly recommend it. Sincerely Norma Kramer

Second time here and yet again a great time. Came for restaurant week with a fairly large party and it was a smooth dinner. The food and drinks are good! Get the drink flight for the full experience.

I stopped by on a Friday at Happy Hour. Friendly greeting at the door and beautiful atmosphere especially if you like seeing your music heroes adorning the walls in a dark dining atmosphere. I recommend going for the atmosphere and drinks and im coming back to see a live performance sometime.

The atmosphere was really nice, they played live music while we were there upstairs which we heard but did not physically see. The food was pretty good, it wasn’t seasoned enough to my palate, my husband got the fried chicken and I got the duck and both were lacking in seasonings. The Mac & cheese and cornbread are absolutely amazing!! Won’t go wrong with those. I also had a flight of bourbon, whiskey, and beer and that was fabulous! Would definitely recommend going there for the drinks!
