Spectrum Grill

The last time we ate at the Xfinity Live Center it was a disaster, so I was a little nervous to get dinner here.  This time we opted to try the Spectrum Grill and it actually worked out pretty well.  We ended up not waiting too long for a table and our waitress was decent.  She was a little slow with the water service, but was very careful with my food allergies and made sure my fries came out plain (apparently all of their fries have parmesan cheese, which is something I would have never thought of - but as soon as I told her about my dairy allergy, she picked right up on it and told me she'd make them suitable for me).  My burger was cooked well and I thought they had a nice little beer selection.  Next time we come back down to the stadiums, I think this may be our grub spot.

My husband and I went at 6:30 on a Friday night and we were the only 2 in the restaurant. The restaurant was nice, booths were comfortable. The menu was very limited for entrees, they had their 4 signature steaks. I got the 8oz Filet ($38) and my husband got the 12oz NY Strip ($46). They came with 1 side - I got the asparagus (which you think they tell you already came with the meal) and the other was parmesan fries - which were bland. So the steaks - both were cooked to the temperatures asked. Other than that they laced taste and flavor. Hardly any seasoning on them and were just blah. When you have to ask for A1 sauce just to make the steak taste semi-ok you know there is an issue. If you want a nice steakhouse - do not go here!

The Spectrum Grille was great!!! I had made a reservation for 10 people at PBR Grill for my friend's bachelorette party about a month before the event. When we arrived at PBR, our table was not reserved and packed with drunken Phillies fans (which in all fairness, is to be expected on opening day, but that's also why I made a reservation.) I had emailed and spoken with PBR's event manager, Sigourney, multiple times before the event and confirmed our reservation. We showed up, on time, and after waiting for at least 30 minutes, they had just begun clearing out our table, but by that time we were ready to bail. The experience was awful, and as the organizer, I was embarrassed. Since we were already @ Xfinity Live, we decided to give the Spectrum Grill a try. The Spectrum staff was pleasant and accommodating. We walked in with 10 people and they were able to seat us right away. We explained to our server the horrible experience we had just had at PBR, and she had the manager honor PBR's drink specials and even comped us a round of shots for the table. That's just good business! The food was delicious and the service was exceptional. I would highly recommend the Spectrum Grill to anyone, and I would definitely go back again. Can't say the same for PBR. Thank you Spectrum Grill!
