Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Swarthmore

What a jewel of a spot! Gracious and friendly service, delicious food, great drinks list, and an absolute treat to sit at the chef’s counter and see the pros at work!

Delicious from start to finish! We raved about the house made biscuits which were were impossibly made better with a touch of the honey sweetened butter. Next, the Caesar salad was tasty but had a bit too much dressing. We were offered a special of bone-in ribeye which had the perfect sear and was cooked exactly to temperature. It was juicy and flavorful without needing any other accoutrements. We did, however add a lobster tail which was also absolute perfection. The stuffed hash browns (caramelized onions and a cheese I can’t recall) were a perfect blend of savory, crunchy and creamy but the Brussel sprouts weren’t anything to remember. And finally, dessert. The baked Alaska - Worth. Every. Calorie. The service was impeccable and friendly without being intrusive or overbearing. The atmosphere was refined yet comfortable. A beautiful experience all around.

Had a delicious brunch at the Love-excellent service, interesting menu, large portions. I would give it 5 stars but the potatoes served with the eggs were useless-too salty, no other seasoning-just unembellished potatoes straight from the fryolater. Everyone at the table agreed. Everything else was fabulous, tho.

The branzino and the snapper were our highlights last night. we had the sides of broccolini and potatoes which were so fresh and delicious. There were starters of crudos salmon and yellow tail which were small but tasty bites for the 4 of us. The clams were liked by three the 4th is not a fan of cooked clams.

We regularly return to Barclay Prime for special occasion dinners. We request Janell as our server. Her service is first rate everything. Food is always great...had the hibachi app this time...excellent. Will continue to dine here based on great food and service.
