Any opinions on Slate or Noble American Cookery near Rittenhouse Square?
These are both new places . We are staying near Rittenhouse Square without transport so we thought these two places might be worth a try. Any opinions?

here's a review of slate..I haven't heard much buzz about it on the forum. Probably decent but nothing amazing. Moderately priced.

I ate dinner upstairs at Noble on a Friday night awhile ago. I thought the food was quite good but extremely pricey. I'm glad to hear that prices went down. I liked the atmosphere on the 2nd floor since it's such a cool space. There weren't many people eating dinner but the bar downstairs was pretty packed. I liked Noble but won't be going back since there's so many other places in the city.

That was my impression as well. The food ranged from good to very good, but I didn't really feel like I got my money's worth, and nothing I had was so awesome that I wanted to go back. That was before they lowered prices, though. I did really like their all-American wine and beer list, and their commitment to serving grass-fed beef (which was one of the better things I had there). The space is very nice.
If I was staying in Rittenhouse I would go to Tinto or Pub and Kitchen first. Meme and the new Oyster House are also very good and close by.

I,ve dined at Noble twice...once right after they opened and last saturday[8/1]. Very good both times and they have lowered the prices a bit. I had the scallop app,sable entree and blueberry-peach cobbler. Also a side of delicious local veggies.The entree was great. Ask to sit upstairs as they did a great renovation. Good eating!!
