Price: Very Expensive
• Italian • South Philly

Entering the Saloon, a family owned restaurant since it opened in 1967 is a bit like stepping into Philadelphia's past. Dark oak paneling, shiny brass and authentic local antiques create a warm congenial and casual atmosphere. The choice of two comfortable dining rooms each with its own vintage bars make dining and conversation a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Both bars feature a delicious and moderately priced food menu. The menu is Italian with seafood specials such as grilled octopus and dover sole. Saloon steaks and veal chops are legendary. Many prefer a plate of fried long hot peppers to compliment the steaks. All desserts and gelatos are made on the premises daily. The Saloon is a Philadelphia neighborhood bar and restaurant with a national reputation. And the parking is FREE!

    My second time in, and certainly not my last. I had the delicious creamy vegetable soup of the day with my yummy polpo appetizer, the melt in your mouth Parmesan cream sauce gnocchi (absolutely THE BEST version I’ve had, and I’ve had a lot😉), to top it off I had a shot of espresso to pair with my pistachio cake. I plan on eating my way through this menu, and the best part is their continuously changing specials. I cannot recommend enough, you can taste the passion from the chef owner🤌🏼

    My husband and I have come here for so long, and wanted to have one last brunch here before they shut their doors. We have to say the staff, between front and back, are just rockstars at what they do and provide. The food is always top notch, the cocktails perfect, and the service warm and welcoming. Truly a delight any time we can spend some time with our 2 dachshunds and enjoy the outside space here. We hope you and team have much successes going forward and we hope for the next iteration will be here soon. Happy New Year Hawthorne's!
