Time

I was looking for a low-key spot with live music and good food to gather in celebration of a friend's bday so made reservations here for a party of 4 (although only 3 were able to make it).We were seated on the "live music" side of the restaurant and the ambiance on this side was really nice - quaint (but seating wasn't overcrowded) and dimly lit. Our waitress, Clarissa, was pleasant, attentive and observant. We ordered the Buffalo Brussel Sprouts and Mini Crab cakes for starters and each of us ordered the Short Rib dish for an entree; for drinks I ordered a Kiss from a Rose and the others in my party ordered a Smooth Criminal (I think). The starters were excellent and the drinks were good. The entree was under whelming but I was hungry so I finished it. Overall my experience was good, perhaps we chose the wrong entree but I would certainly come back. The music was great - I forgot to note that about halfway through our dining experience is when the live music started and the band sounded great; also, the volume of the music was not too loud. When the band wasn't playing recorded music played and that sounded good too and the volume was good. Prices were ok; do take note that the entry fee for listening to the live music is automatically added to your bill.

It sure why the reviews are not great as our experience was top notch. We wanted to listen to some jazz so we made a reservation and so glad we did. First off our server was fantastic. She was attentive and nice and was working hard. We felt completely taken care of. If you like whisky this is a great place. We ordered some drinks and some food. Their mussels were the best I have had. They were so different with a chile pepper sauce. Not spicy tho- just full of flavor. We also ordered the calamari which was nice and lightly breaded. The crab cakes were nicely flavored and we got the Mac and cheese to go. Which was very good! The jazz group was great. Again, the food, ambience and service was awesome. The next night we came back to just go to the whiskey bar. Our bartendar was awesome and did an "omakase" style tasting for my husband of some of his favorite brands. This was a great night too!! We will be back when in Philly again.

Pretty great intimate spot. Reservation for the dining area, after 10 for live music. Bar seating isn't reserved so people come and are dressed up making moves. Also some regulars chilling, enjoying the musicHad the corner seat which is honestly the best place -- view of everything and sitting right next to each other. Our neighbor patrons made our night, waitress was chill and non-intrusive. Would come back but do more research on the type of music being played

I was running around Center City for SIPS when we decided to stop into Time. First thing I noticed is there was live music! The lighting was dim and it was packed, but we were able to get seated right away miraculously. I ordered a burger which was fantastic! The fries it comes with were crispy and delicious. I had a couple of glasses of wine which were also great. My friends also enjoyed their meals. It was a great experience overall. The only thing to keep in mind is that they will charge a fee if there is live music. I wish they would've been upfront about that!

Always a good time at Time! The bar was crowded but surprisingly not too hard getting a table. Ordered a sidecar drink and enjoyed the live music .kitchen had just closed so didn't get any food unfortunately. The bartenders were always attentive and made some darn good drinks. Time is that guaranteed good time spot imo.

Wife and I came here to grab some food and listen to live jazz. Our new favorite spot when in Philadelphia! Food was amazing, the sauce that they use for their muscles is nothing that we have ever had and it was incredible! The service was great, the location is nice except for some of the seats were old with rips and padding showing but still comfortable. Next door they have a whiskey bar that has a menu that has an amazing collection. We came back the next night just to sit at the whiskey bar and have a few varieties of bourbons that the bartender curated for us. The restraint/jazz side and whiskey bar next door has everything you need. A one stop shop of great tastes and great people.

one of my go-to spots in the city for live music and drinks.It has a good scene. i enjoy coming here with my friends for live music, dancing and drinks. great location

Time has easily became one of my favorite spots to enjoy live music and quality craft cocktails at quite an affordable and consistent price. When you arrive you're immediately welcomed by a serene atmosphere of good vibes and sounds to match! I absolutely love the bartender Nick (bald nick) as he would specify, he's so kind and makes the very best drinks! 10/10 experience, please check them out

Time was really cool. I had drinks and listened to the live band. The band was great and the vibe was good. It is definitely a hot spot on a Friday night.

The bar is crowded and you need a reservation for the music side :(( not sure if ill be back
