   The staff here are excellent. They are friendly and attentive. Robert is THE BEST!! The night we went was the opening night for their new restaurant so I’m sure a few things were being worked out. I had the fish and chips which was excellent. My friend had the butternut risotto and the flavor was delicious, but consistency was dry rather than the expected moist risotto. We will definitely go back.

   Service was lovely. Food was "OK". Drinks were NOT GOOD and dessert was also just about ok. For the price there are FAR better places in Philly downtown

   This restaurant is a hotel restaurant. I am not judging it for that, however when checking in to be seated, the hostess stand was unclear and we were left waiting for some time before acknowledged. We were running 15 minutes late for my 11:30AM reservation and was told upon arrival that they wouldn't be only serving lunch. A bit disappointing since I scheduled it to have brunch. The food was solid and the service was good given 1) the cards were stacked against her and 2) she was one of TWO servers for a fair sized restaurant.

   There was nothing terrible but there was nothing great either. We knew going in that there was a small selection. The food was OK. The service was adequate but it was clear to us that our waitress was inexperienced. The setting was also nothing special.

   Excellent waitstaff but mediocre otherwise. Hesitate to recommend.

   Was impressed with the ambience, service, and food! ONLY disappointment for me was the French Onion Soup! SOGGY, COLD, and cheese tasted FUNNY! Should've SENT it BACK!!

   While the service was fine, we found the food to be underwhelming and the drinks expensive and not filled to the brim. If you’re going to charge $18.00 plus tax and tip for a martini, it should be filled properly. Additionally, even though we placed our drink order when we sat down, the food started arriving before we received our drinks. A “sustainable fee” of 1% was added to our bill. When we asked the waitress about it, she was unsure and had to check with the manager, who did not come out to explain. She informed us that the fee could be removed if requested by the customer, but we were left wondering why it was added in the first place. This fee, though small, along with the food and drinks, left a negative impression. As locals, we are always looking for great places to dine. We would consider returning when we see some positive reviews.

   Hello Roger, We appreciate you taking the time to review our establishment. We are very sorry that this visit was not a 5 stars experience. We have shared the feedback to our team, and hope we are able to see you again in the future. We apologies for the confusion on the sustainability charge, we wish we had an opportunity to explain in person. This charge was put in place, to help maintain a sustainable kitchen with all eco-friendly recyclable products, and locally sourced vendors and produce. 1% makes a big impact in positive purchases for the environment and community. As always, we do give the option to opt out of this support. Thank you again for taking the time to review the Franklin Social Kindly, Loreal Dechoudens, Director of F+B

    Our server was polite and willing to offer opinions. The burrata salad was excellent, as were the veggies that accompanied the salmon. The featured Restaurant Week rye drink was very good. The only food negative was the salmon, which was plain (no discernible seasoning) and overcooked. Atmosphere was generic upscale city hotel restaurant. We are locals, and there are many area restaurants from which to choose, so bottom line: we won’t be regulars here, but this was a good experience.
