Food was good. Service not so much! Ordered coffee which never came. Server not overly attentive. Had Egg Whites with Chicken Cherry Sausage. Wife had Short Ribs. Both good. Spacious place. Nice atmosphere.

We enjoyed a very nice lunch. The cornbread was a standout — so good that we’re still talking about it. The mushroom dish ended up being our favorite; it was surprisingly delicious, and we really appreciated our server recommending it. The sampler steak was fine, just not as memorable as the other dishes. Overall, a great place for a satisfying meal.

Urban Farmer is a modern upscale steakhouse. It has farm to table choices. There are beers on tap and a nice wine list. Our group had the grass fed ribeye, ARKA Salmon, sea bass and the double cut pork chop. The truffle tater tots were fabulous as was the grilled broccolini. The food was all outstanding. The service was excellent and they split our checks as requested. It was a lovely dinner. The cornbread is excellent.

Top notch all the way. Upscale but not stuffy or pretentious. The decor is like a modern rustic mixed with artsy. The food is outstanding, from the starters to desert. Exec Chef Sonny and his team make everything in house, they butcher their own meats, they even grow their own mushrooms! The steaks are AMAZING. Our waitress was super perky, very sweet and attentive. Great location on the scenic Ben Franklin Parkway. I'd give them 6 stars if I could.

I visited Urban Farmer a while ago, and it left me with mixed impressions. It tries to bring a farm-to-table, modern steakhouse vibe. Some parts worked well, but others felt a little less polished. 🍴 Food Experience The food was very good—steaks cooked well, sides flavorful, and everything felt like it was made with care. What I especially appreciated was that it wasn’t just about the main course—coffee, dessert, and drinks were all excellent, which made the meal feel complete. 🍹 Drinks & Service The service stood out—attentive, professional, and friendly without being overbearing. The drinks were also well put together: solid cocktails, good wine options, and nothing felt rushed or sloppy. 🚗 Parking & Access Parking can be tricky. Nearby garages are an option, but planning ahead is wise. 🏛 Atmosphere Here’s where things felt a little off. The space has potential, but the atmosphere was just okay. Seating is a bit close, and while it tries for farmhouse chic, some parts feel slightly dated. It’s not uncomfortable, but compared to the food and service, the setting didn’t quite match up. ✨ Overall Experience For me, Urban Farmer delivered with good food, great coffee and desserts, and attentive service. The atmosphere was fine but not a standout, and parking could be easier. Still, if you’re looking for a reliable steakhouse in Philadelphia, it’s worth the stop—you just have to go in knowing the strengths are more on the food and service side than the vibe.
