    Excellent service. Almost no wait time if you come on a weekday even without an appointment. Ask for Sam, he knows what he's doing! It's $35 + tip for a men's haircut. It's a bit pricier than other hair salons in Chinatown, but the quality of service and wait times are MUCH better here than anywhere else.

    I’ve been going to Room 209 for almost five years now, and Sam has been my barber the whole time. He’s honestly amazing — super skilled and always knows what he’s doing. I got a perm last month for the second time, and it turned out exactly how I wanted. Sam’s personality makes it easy to trust him completely — I can sit down and let him do whatever he thinks looks best with 100% confidence. There’s a reason Room 209 has been around in Philly Chinatown for so long — great people, great service, and always consistent. Highly recommend!

    I just got a new hairstyle from Sam and it turned out amazing! I didn’t even show him a picture. He just asked me a few questions like length and whether I wanted bangs, and then cut it exactly how I imagined. I didn’t expect much because I never get a style that actually compliments my face shape; but Sam nailed it. Honestly the best haircut I’ve ever had.
