The Vibe
This isn’t your typical neighborhood bar; it feels more like a chic city lounge dropped into Bensalem. With dim lighting, plush seating, and a playlist that leans towards R&B and jazz, the atmosphere is “approachable fine dining” with a distinct party energy—perfect for a Saturday night out where you want to dress up a little.
What Locals Love (The Pros)
- Top Dish: The Lamb Chops are consistently shouted out as a showstopper—tender, perfectly grilled, and served with a sauce that diners rave about. The Beef Short Ribs also get perfect marks for falling off the bone.
- The Service: Reviews frequently mention the staff being “warm” and “welcoming,” managing to keep the vibes good even when the house is packed.
- The Best Part: The Asian-American Fusion menu. It’s rare to find a place where you can order high-quality Sushi and a Ribeye Steak at the same table and have both be excellent. Also, the Cheesesteak Egg Rolls are mandatory orders.
Heads Up (The Cons)
- The Wait: “Popular” is an understatement. Expect a wait on weekends (sometimes up to an hour), and be aware that the kitchen can get backed up during the rush, meaning entrees might take a bit to arrive after your appetizers.
- Volume Control: This is a lively spot. Between the music and the crowd, it gets loud. If you’re looking for a whispered romantic conversation, you might find yourself shouting over the beat.
The Verdict
An excellent choice for a “girls’ night out,” a birthday celebration, or a high-energy date night where the drinks and vibe matter just as much as the food. Skip it if you’re in a rush or want a silent, traditional dining experience.
