    We went on Christmas Eve for drinks at the bar with friends and then a 5 course prix fixe dinner for 2. Both experiences were fabulous. Quality bartender and the table service team was top notch: professionally urgent, menu advice, flexible to small adjustments, on top of clearing and packaging to go, no time holes in waiting for food or drinks, EXCELLENT FOOD. I am embarrassed I lived in Philly for 21 years before coming here. I have been missing out. Will definitely be back.

    Came here to celebrate my birthday and we absolutely loved it. On the expensive side but so worth it. We had the dynamite sushi roll and a special sushi roll of the night and they were probably one of the best we’ve eaten, very fresh and flavorful. The special 28oz tomahawk was perfectly charred and so juicy. And the lobster Mac tied it all together, so amazing and cheesy with a whole lobster on top. They gave us a free desert for my birthday, which we got the warm butter cake and all I can say is wow… such an amazing desert. And to top it all off, our server Allegra, was impeccable. So attentive, made great recommendations, and did not miss a beat. All staff were super nice and made my birthday celebration great.

    The food is great but this review is pointless, as Devon Seafood Grill will be closing in a few weeks. The opening was a toasty lobster & crab salad roll sandwich, followed by the mixed seafood grill: shrimp, scallops, salmon, crab cake & grilled asparagus. All was seasoned & cooked to perfection. The side dish, king crab fried rice was a letdown. It was over-salted and tasted much strongly of bacon than crab. Surprise: the champagne was half-price (going out of business sale?) and the final coffee was freshly brewed & excellent. Bottom line: Typically expensive for Center City Philly, but the food was first-rate and the ambience was elegant but relaxing. I'm disappointed my first visit to DSG will also be my last. So I guess if you can get there in the next -2weeks, I say "treat yourself." Otherwise, hope the next restaurant to fill the space serves food of similar quality.
