    I love this place. Every dish is exquisite. Have not had anything yet that I did not absolutely love. The staff is highly knowledgeable about the food and drink, and extremely attentive. A "must-go" if you're visiting Fishtown!

    I'm gluten free so I can't comment on the pizzas and pasta which my friends now tell me are fantastic. We had snacks and then the steak and duck. The steak was very good, the duck ok. The appetizers were good, but not amazing. Overall it was a good meal, but I've had better in the neighborhood. Service was good, atmosphere and the building are very cool! Love the fireplace in the dining room.

    Menu is extremely limited to those with special diets. Terrible for vegans and gluten free folks.

    Really enjoyed our dinner. The food was great from beginning to end. Loved the pastas and the porterhouse for two. Very interesting wine list with reasonable markups. Will have to come back to try the pizzas!

    I took my boyfriend here for his birthday (his request) and it was a wonderful experience. We went a little early for a drink at the bar. Cocktails and atmosphere were great. Next time we might take our pre-dinner drinks to the sofa in the dining room and sit in front of the fireplace! The sommolier gave us a wonderful recommendation for a wine to go with our steak and he was very attentive to our table and wine the whole night. The steak was cooked to a perfect med rare, but we both thought the food was over salted; the cavatelli porcini pasta and the Prime Ribeye special. Regardless, it was such a wonderful night though and did not take away from the experience at all. We have raved about this place to our friends and family and will be back with more people soon!

    Words cannot express the perfection of Wm. Mulherin's Sons. The food exquisite. The service - excellent - knowledgeable, friendly (without even a whiff of pretense). The ambiance - enveloping - soft, warm, welcoming, yet lively! I'm in Love! That is all I can say.........
