Me and my husband arrived in Philadelphia a little late to research where to have dinner. We selected Stingers because it was close to our hotel and we thought the waterfront would be awesome. We arrived between 8 and 9 and were told that only the bar area was open, so we sat at the bar. The menu was limited to seven items, mostly appetizers. We ordered drinks and two appetizers. Everything was fine. I gave 4 stars instead of 3 because we had an awesome bartender. We may have liked it better if we had arrived early enough to enjoy the full menu and if the outside patio was open.
A really nice place to escape to. Our server, Fran, was excellent and gave 5 star service. The Pina colada was delicious and refreshing. The stinger fries were the highlight of my meal. Felt like I was down the shore but without the shore traffic. On my second trip the Mahi was overcooked but the spaghetti with crab and shrimp was excellent.
Food is always exceptionally good. Perfect for a date night or get together with friends and family. The views of the water are beautiful. Service is always great.
Food was good, had some great flavors. Service was extremely friendly and quick, even when busy. Oysters were fresh and large, def recommend getting those. I got the paella which I didn’t love - was a bit too salty for me. But the tuna is delish and the stingers fries were bomb.
I was visiting Philadelphia,Pa and found Stingers Waterfront through Yelp. At the location I found the Restaurant to be exquisite. I ordered the Halibut and my Wife ordered the Salmon which was EXCEPTIONAL. We also had Philly Cheese steak egg rolls and the mussels with red sauce as an appetizer. Both were very good. Steve who was our waiter with the tattoos was very professional courteous and knowledgeable. If you're ever in the area you must go to Stinger's Waterfront.
Stinger’s was a great spot for a laidback, non-pretentious dinner. Food met our expectations and the service was super friendly. I imagine that the experience on a quiet Tuesday evening in November is quite different from a summer evening with the patio on the river hustling and bustling.
The signs everywhere making it very clear that you can only be seated for 90 minutes we’re a tad odd, though again I get that in summer they want to turn tables as much as they can. For what it’s worth they let us stay past the 90 minutes on our quiet weeknight and thus we enjoyed an extra round of drinks.
The waitress we had was Nicole and she was excellent and friendly. We sat on the patio and the weather was beautiful. The crab cakes were delicious but the only reason I gave the food 4 stars is the vegetables were undercooked and too hard to eat. We shared an order of mussels for an appetizer and they were excellent. The red sangria drink was also perfect. I would definitely go back.
Amazing views, service and food! Get the stinger fries they are amazing! The Miami Vice was really good too!(Pina Colada and Strawberry Daiquiri swirled together) This place has an amazing atmosphere! Great place for drinks with good friends and awesome food. The outdoor seating was great. I would go back again just for those epic stinger fries! The time limit of an hour and a half was initially concerning but ended up not a problem for our party of six. Parking was easy turn left when you see the boat ramp and there was ample free parking.
