Inside The Little Lion, you'll find a sign that reads "Libertati aut ad mortem", freedom or death, an ode to Philly's Old City sensibilities — which also ties into the name of the restaurant, inspired by Founding Father Alexander Hamilton's nickname in George Washington's war-posse.
The new restaurant coming to 3rd and Chestnut Streets will officially open on January 7, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10:00 a.m., an hour before its first lunch service. Chef Sean Ciccarone (Haru, Pennsylvania 6, Farmer's Cabinet) is still putting finishing touches on his comfort food menu (coming soon) of house-made pastas, seafood, steaks, and sandwiches. Below, you'll find pictures of menu items still in-progress, but figure it's a peek into what to expect at the new Old City public house.
