“7.10.25 My friend and I had the pleasure of dining at the Deptford Olive Garden for the first time in a great while.We were greeted warmly at the door and escorted to our seats quickly. We couldn't wait to have the garlic bread and salad to say the least! Our server was Kayla, and she couldn't have been anymore friendlier and accommodating with our service. Very patient while we looked over the menu. My dinner companion chose the Ravioli which he raved about and I selected the Chicken Margherita which was splendid and enough for dinner today. Kayla invited us back which we will definitely do soon. Thank you to all who made this dinner an amazing experience.“

Hands down, this might be the best Italian in Philly. The food doesn’t just sit pretty on the plate — it jumps out, grabs you by the soul, and gives you a warm, savory hug. Every bite is a bold, beautiful explosion of flavor that hits you in the heart and the taste buds. This place isn’t just dinner — it’s a love story in pasta form.“

The bartender Patrick made the most delicious espresso martinis I’ve had to so far anywhere. The chicken parm took up the entire plate and the chicken carbonara tasted other-worldly! The wine selection is excellent and it was just an overall excellent experience. I’m already jonesing to go back!!!“

“Everything was amazing it was just freezing in there and the floor above the basement had loud slamming noises for about 10 minutes straight to the point I thought the floor was about to fall through. However our waiter was amazing and thoughtful, food was delicious as well as drinks and they gave us complimentary champagne and extra things for our anniversary. Heads up there's only one bathroom which is on the top floor behind the main bar“

Now live in Key West for last 30 years but specifically make sure each time I come up to see family I go to Villa Di Roma, clams casino, asparagus, gravy and the people there that run it all family. Amazing piece of the food history of the Italian market that is a must try anytime.“

And always my end to a great m a also is a dessert. I am seeker of great tira misu, and their's was outstanding as well and homemade as everything else had been.

The service was amazing throughout the meal, I wish I got the servers name as he was really an incredibly friendly young man who clearly knew the menu very well.

The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented as each dish was crafted with care and bursting with authentic Italian flavor. The desserts were equally impressive, a perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making us feel right at home. What truly set the experience apart, though, was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly, kind, and attentive and efficient without ever making us feel rushed. Their genuine hospitality added so much to the evening. Albertino’s is a true gem. We’ll absolutely be back! Paul“

I stopped by the restaurant by myself a couple of later.. Thought I’d get a quick lunch fix. Wrong! My eyes nearly popped out of my head when I the chief my plate of Eggplant Parmesan. What a wonderful freshly made dinner (plus leftovers for 2 extra meals). The staff all were very friendly. Chiefly came out to see how I liked my meal. He shared some details about the newly open restaurant & homemade recipes, etc. He mentioned breakfast was also served and somehow in the conversation he decided to send me home with a sample of sausages & gravy along with my husbands meal.
