Tapas Restaurant · Center City East · 171 tips and reviews
Ben Hennesy: If you don't mind spending a little money ... come here and order the tasting menu (55 pp?). You will leave fat and happy. Ask for the octopus.
Indian Restaurant · Center City East · 17 tips and reviews
Ben Hennesy: Excellent lunch buffet. Alot of indian places skimp on the lunch or reheat whatever didn't sell the day before. This is a real lunch buffet. And totally affordable.
Ben Hennesy: They don't do reservations, so plan to wait on a friday night. Bartenders and (most) wait staff know there stuff though. Ask anything you want about the drinks.

Cocktail Bar · Center City West · 141 tips and reviews
Ben Hennesy: Don't bother with the food but ask for the Billy Penn Club and the (Dead Cowboy?) ... can't remember the name of that last one, BT will be able to tell you, though. Best mixed drinks, bar none.

American Restaurant · Center City West · 16 tips and reviews
Ben Hennesy: Don't expect much from the wait staff. Seriously, I'm pretty sure that last time I went that my waiter was high. Food is quality though. Don't let 'em pressure you into multiple coarses.
