While my boyfriend is a big fan of the place, I can't say that my few experience there rendered me the same. The first time I was there was a Sunday and whole the place was half full, there were only 2 servers there and service was incredibly slow. A few other visits were not really impressive and then the past Friday me and a few friends went there during a Phillies game and it was ok. I do love the place in which looked like a small church or monastery. People here are not incredibly friendly, our waitress was friendly enough but a bit overwhelmed by the crowd. The goth-y maitre'd and bartender never even smiled. The amount of beer and drink choices are great. One of our friend seldom drink beers and our waitress was kind enough to introduce him to a strawberry beer that tasted very much like soda. We sat down to have a nice dinner. The calamari was good, buffalo wings and nachos were acceptable, the special corn fritters was enjoyable but they felt like any bar food you've had and nothing stood out too much. We shared two entrees: the National Burger and a special Penne Vodka. Again the burger is plain and nothing really special, the Penne Vodka however is pleasant with Canadian bacon, chicken, peas in a creamy tomato sauce. Sure you can make it at home but it's not something you can get everywhere. I did enjoy the game specially, our team, the Phillies ended up winning. But one random jerk who was sitting near the TV was whistling a sharp note the whole night and all the diners and viewers keep looking around trying to locate the annoying selfish inconsiderate, no doubt, fan who's trying to telepathically send his cheer through the TV monitor over to the players while the staff here look on and go about their work. It's annoying for everyone and I was glad to get out of that place when I did. That said, I wouldn't mind going back if my friends or my boyfriend wants to go back, but I don't think I will suggest the place myself.
