Review from Nicey J.
I came here for a birthday party, so I can't really comment on anything about their usual business practices.
When I walked in the space was definitely nice, there was an ok amount of seating, and they had the party staffed well.. The bartenders seemed a bit blech, but they knew what they were doing but I just wasn't feeling their, what seemed to be, disdain.
They did have a buffet for the party and it seemed like the food was pretty good since everyone was eating it, most was not vegg friendly so I only partook in the fruit salad which was decent.
The place was unbearably hot, they definitely need to work on that. Despite that I liked it, it's a really cool place to host an event like this.
my favorite part about this place is the location! why might you ask? AMPLE PARKING ..NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE -
Review from Jeff B.

Golden at Platinum: Great First Impression. Bad second and third impression. The following is based on the first impression:
A very warm, inviting atmosphere is to be found at the Platinum Grille in Chestnut Hill's Market Square. The style is casual but upscale; the ambience is conversational and open; the waitress who assisted us was friendly, attentive and sincere. Service was quick. The food was excellent (diced chicken nachos and asian teriyaki chicken), although the collard greens were a little saltier than I prefer (but that's just me). The bar area is removed from the dining area, creating two different spaces for your choice of moods (a bunch of buds hangin' out or something of a more intimate focus). Bathrooms were clean and maintained (woman's and...unisex!)
And for the second and third impressions? Long wait at the host's station to be seated (one time actually had to call the restaurant's number on a cell phone to ask someone to come and seat us!); long wait for waiter/waitress to take order; waiter/waitress getting order wrong; food was good, though!
Therefore, the five star rating will have to drop to a two-star. (updated 5/31/08) -

Philly's Platinum Grille is hidden in the Market Square Shopping Centre in Chestnut Hill.
The menu has traditional burgers and the like, but also soul food and a very tasty Sunday Brunch.
Friendly doesn't even begin to describe the wait staff there. They really help to give the Grille a home feeling. -

Review from Rafael G.
I've been here about five times. The thing that sticks in my mind is the long wait time after ordering. I've been there for lunch when the place was about 10% full and waited 30-40 minutes for a hamburger. What would they do if the restaurant was 30% full??
Otherwise, this would be a good place to goon your lunch hour. The food I've had is good and the place is clean. The waitstaff is polite. The atmosphere is quiet. Unfortunately, I don't have that much time to spare during the workday.Listed in: Bleh!

Review from Amber M.
Chestnut Hill, PA
I was in the mood for some cheap grease (sue me!) and ordered for take out a modestly priced appetizer sized shrimp basket. I received 4 jumboUNDERCOOKED shrimp. The staff is less than friendlky and the shrimp experience is only one of my run ins with PPG but def my last. I you want this kind of food take yourself and money to Chef Ken's on Germantown Ave but this place is a fail. Womp.
