My wife and I visited the Dandelion unexpectedly after a beautiful day in Philadelphia.
In short we saw the menu and thought we’d check the place out.
We selected the roasted trout, which tasted like it came directly from the freezer.
Not a hint of freshness was present.
As noted from the photos, there were more beans present than anything.
They were supposed to be white beans but appeared to be red.
Nothing about it was tasty or attractive.
Definitely not a recommendation in my book.
We were quite disappointed with our dining and experience but quietly exited.
If you’re considering this restaurant, look a little longer and harder if you’re here for food.
Maybe it’s fine for drinks only.
🤷🏽‍♂️ It does have a great rustic feel though.

My steak is perfect, but the fish, i think it’s little too soft, doesn’t taste like real fresh fish.
The beef tartare was too strong onion for me .
Chip is okay, not fantastic!! Maybe I expected too much before i come because i read too much good reviews of this restaurant.
The restaurant is little too loud !!

Brian, thank you for taking the time to share feedback on your recent experience at The Dandelion.
We're happy to learn your visit was an enjoyable one and we look forward to welcoming you back soon and earning that last star.

This place was such a unique experience.
Some classic English items, and a few you might not have had before.
My friend and I shared the deviled eggs and cheese board (which had 4 kinds of cracker/biscuit options.) He had the Sunday roast (a very large portioned meal) and I the rabbit pie (think dark meat chicken and you'll be fine lol.) The London Fog cocktail was a delight with its earthy earl gray gin and fresh juice.
All of this set in a Victorian period home.
Only downside is the lack of accessibility for those with wheelchair or ambulatory differences.
