The Dandelion is a neighborhood restaurant that offers a cozy and friendly atmosphere with attentive service. The first floor features casual bar seating, while upstairs has more tables. The restaurant is known for dishes like the Tandori Chicken, Fish and Chips, and Spring Pea Soup. Customers often praise the cool decor, which has an old skool brownstone charm with antique touches. The food generally receives high marks, with favorites including the burger, rabbit pie, and grilled chicken paillard salad. Desserts like caramel custard pie with pear ice cream are also popular. Recent reviews highlight the fantastic food, with the Sticky Toffee Pudding being especially praised as one of the best desserts. The afternoon tea was described as truly excellent, with a generous amount of food, tasty sandwiches, and decaffeinated Roobios tea. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff going above and beyond, such as singing happy birthday and lighting candles on pastries. While the restaurant is highly recommended for its ambiance and quality food, some reviews mention that vegetarian options are limited, and portion sizes of certain items like hummus can be small. Reservations are advised due to its busy nature, making The Dandelion one of the best places in Philadelphia for a relaxed yet special dining experience.
