Incredible vegan gluten free food and drinks.My friends and I spend a great deal of time here due to the atmosphere and location plus having many options for us with gluten and dairy allergies— this weekend we had the best early dinner during their turnover menu thanks to the energetic waiter we had. The flavors were unmatched and so was the service.This afternoon We were craving the same thing but unfortunately had a very different experience— we ordered take out and the person who we spoke with made allergies seem like an inconvenience and made me feel even more so when I came in and asked when the food would be ready considering I had waited over ETA. No big deal since this is one of our favorite places, except there were ingredients missing in our order and we weren’t notified (the inconsistency stood out since we had the same meal less than 2 days ago), then we found a hair in my salad.We’ll still come here for their slamming turnover and dinner menu but I may reconsider ordering take out.

vegan friendly!!! best buffalo cauliflower!!!

I was only in the Liason Room for a show, but the staff was friendly and we got prompt service! Decent selection of beers and ciders on tap and in bottles/cans!

The place had lots of seating very big tables. Glass in-between them. Plenty of room to sit and move around . Lots of waiters no line at the door. Great environment nice views as the walls looked like brick smashing threw . The ceiling where high there looked like they had a very large outdoor seating area. The food was great the drinks were also great. Clean stools clean table clean floor clean bar. Awesome experience for me.

Excellent chai latte and soy latte - you can grab coffee here to go. I was unable to get a seat for the sit down brunch, but it was sure packed. The portions are massive based on looking at the plates coming out. Great vibes here, excellent breakfast choices, and alcohol.

The food was good yet interesting. I just wish the waitress was more friendly and would have explained some of the unique quirks about some of the food. When I had brought it to the waiters attention that the Caesar salad dressing was purple, it tasted like olives, and it had no croutons she just shrugged me off and said “well that’s our Caesar salad”. I just wish that it was mentioned somewhere on the menu or by the waiter that the Caesar salad dressing was going to be purple with an olive taste and not similar to every other Caesar salad.

Very busy and lively, reservations are a must if you want to be seated sometime this century, sat at the bar because we didn't have any and the wait was at leadt an hour. Food is very good, Drinks are awesome. Meat, vegan and vegetarian options. My companion had the Red velvet pancakes a cotrtado and a Manhatten and I had the Front Street platter with the mushroom scrapple (which I found delightful and unexpected) along with an Irish coffee and finished meal off with a ginger turmeric chai tea with oatmilk ( delicious!) Waitstaff was helpful and friendly.

Great food and pleasant staff - will definitely be back!

5 stars! (But the vegan hollandaise sauce was awful.) Everything else was superb. Great menu, great service. It's a big place yet it feels comfortable and cozy. I'll go back next time I'm in Philly.

The food and specialty cocktails were both amazing. I had the half chicken and it was to die for. Leftovers heated jus as great. Service was perfect. Had a great time and will definitely frequent there.
