Best Restaurants for People Watching in Bala Cynwyd

We went for lunch & shared charcuterie, cheese plate, & Trout Almondine. All were excellent. Our server, Makenzie, was delightful & attentive without being intrusive, and helpful with suggestions. The only negative was uncomfortable chairs. Otherwise, we had a lovely leisurely lunch.

We ordered bacon-wrapped dates, scallops, french onion soup, ribeye, and salmon, with brocollini and potatoes, and everything was AMAZING!!! Service was great as well! Seating was comfortable and music was good! A little pricey but great for special occasions!

One of the best restaurants I’ve been to in the city. 10/10 recommend

Dinner was great Food was all incredible, atand out was the skewers, it was some of the best lamb I've ever had. Server was great, she was busy but still took the time to explain everything to us and give us reccomendations. We went w the pre fix taste if armenia menu and i dont think it could've gone any better.

Again, this is a 4.5 star restaurant—across all categories, including value and quality of food. The service, for me, was top notch—not only were servers attentive but were very friendly and seemed genuinely interested in making my experience enjoyable. I had some nice recommendations regarding some simple questions posed (burger or fish and chips? For which I was guided to an excellent burger at perfect requested temperature!) and my water and Guinness glasses were kept filled without the servers being too cloying. The Guinness was an excellent pour as well, and the Brussels Sprouts appetizer with kielbasa was a different twist and also well prepared. The only nitpick I had in terms of food was the hand cut fires, which were house made and fresh, were a bit tepid and flabby when served. The other nitpick was a seating issue—I was a bit nippy while seated at a hi-top in the bar area—the side door which was directly behind me let in cold air each time it was open. This is practically uncorrectable by the restaurant—so treat this not as a condemnation but as a pro-tip for your experience there (don’t sit behind that door in the winter!) And you should go—this was a quality experience and would go again (and again).
