where's a good night club in Philly???

Me and 3 of my buddies are having a guys weekend in Philly and catching an eagle game. We wanna know where%26#39;s a great steakhouse to eat at and the best club on a saturday night that has bottle service and is trendy right now in the area.



We are dying for some help with this, we%26#39;re coming from Toronto.....





Thanks!

I would do Steven Starr%26#39;s Barclay Prime for steaks. Afterwards, I would hit Public House or Denim ( both are very close by- Denim is only a couple of blocks away). While both great clubs offer bottle service, I think PH has the better scene. The only issue is that PH is more of a bar w. VIP tables off to the side in the front of the room. I would also book the table early, as they tend to go fast. Denim has lots of tables for bottle service.

Heather is makes great suggestions - the other steakhouse that merits consideration (in my red-meat loving husband%26#39;s opinion) is Capital Grille over on South Broad.





I was going to suggest Denim as well. Very hip and trendy. Have not been to Public House as yet.

What kind of club is Denim? or Public House?? The girls and I are going to Philly this weekend and looking for somewhere to go that isn%26#39;t too young. Maybe somewhere the 30 and 40 somethings go...




Lois ~ I would probably skip both Denim %26amp; PH, as they cater to more of the 20%26#39;s %26amp; 30%26#39;s crowd.





I had dinner last Friday night at Devon in Rittenhouse and they had a great bar scene going on. Rouge next door might also work, depending on what you are looking for %26amp; where you are staying.




Thanks Heather!




I agree - Rouge would probably be more what you are looking for. Can%26#39;t comment on Devon%26#39;s bar scene myself, in all honesty.





I went to Demin with some girlfriends a few months back and while it was fun, I think we were at the older end of the spectrum (early to mid 30%26#39;s) - I think it is somewhere I would have enjoyed immensely, oh, 10 years ago (I am 36.)





Heather, completely off topic, did you dine at the Ritz yet for Restaurant Week? If so, how was it?





Suzanne




Hi Suzanne ~





RC was wonderful! DH might disagree because he had to sit through dinner during the Phillies game! They are also offering a wine tasting for an additional $20. Three flights served during each course. I had the baby greens, chicken and chocolate molten cake. It was definitely worth it!





Tonight I am going to Brasserie Perrier. I will let you know how that goes!





Heather




Thanks for posting, Heather, sounds great! Were your choices from the RW menu or did you deviate?





Have a great time at BP!





Suzanne




HI Suzanne ~





For the first time, we did not deviate from the RW menu at the Ritz. Actually, I am not sure if they were even offering choices outside of the RW choices.





BP was also very good tonight - a good selection for each course, and the portions were suprisingly larger that you would expect. I thought it was also very good. Like another TA Member had mentioned, I did feel slightly rushed. However, the service was not compromised.





Tomorrow we are dining at The Prime Rib. I will report back on that one too : ) Where are you going for RW?





Heather




Hi Heather -





Just going to the Ritz tomorrow night for RW...babysitting is an issue, so we could only secure one evening. Plus with all the kids activities during the week and the fact that I teach in the evening, getting out Mon-Thursday evenings is not easy to do!





However, I do have reservations for dinner next Thursday at Osteria with all my girlfriends and am VERY much looking forward to that!
