Review by Mackenzie Considine

September 22, 2024

Tucked away near Rittenhouse Square, The Love offers a delightful escape with its charming ambiance and inviting decor!

I celebrated my anniversary here, and from the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel special. 😊 The hush puppies and shrimp and grits were standout starters, followed by the Rodeo Burger that was juicy and packed with flavor.

Even the vanilla latte was creamy and enjoyable, despite being on the milder side.

While the noise level can get lively, it only adds to the cozy vibe. This spot is a must-visit for great food and wonderful service! Can't wait to come back! 🌟
