“Food and service was impeccable. Roasted Chicken and Salmon dish arrived hot and were delicious. Servers were attentive and water and bread refilled without asking. I highly encourage you to look past their previous bad reviews. They are much much better than their 3.2 average rating as of this review.“

“Been eating there since I was a kid with family in the market. 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.“

“my fiance and I were in Philly (from Maine) and she treated me to Osteria for my birthday dinner. 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 atmosphere is wonderful and the interior is just lovely. In terms of the food, I had the wild boar bolognese which was a special that night, and it was AMAZING!! Really, all the food was impeccable, from the focaccia to our mains. Super pleased and the next time I’m in town, I will most definitely be coming back!!“

“Excellent Bolognese and Tiramisu!“

“Checked out The Victor Cafe founded in 1918, a little gem of an Italian restaurant in South Philly. All staff are also opera singers and perform an aria every 30 minutes. Also, this place was featured in Rocky Balboa and Creed as Adian's Restaurant. This place is definitely worth a visit. Recommend having a reservation.“

“This is a very nice small BYOB Italian restaurant in the Fish town area. The food and service were exceptional. Love all the dishes we ordered. The prosciutto, focaccia and marinated tomatoes were all, excellent as starters. The Spaghetti pomodoro was perfectly cooked, especially the spaghetti. Claim linguine was cook to perfection and the claim was so fresh. The fried chicken Caesar salad was so good. Highly recommend to try.“

“The food was outstanding, I had the eggplant & burrito appetizer and the fusilli with crab and cherry tomatoes in a broccoli pesto sauce...delicious. 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. But I must know if the tira misu was made with mascarpone. Please ler me know. I will definitely come again!“

“Fantastic dining experience our server Sean Martin was amazing.“

“Awesome Place to host your Family and Friends. Management goes above and beyond. A perfect support when entertaining Veterans as well. We were treated Royally on November 10. Thank you Mario, Liza and Staff. Happy Thanksgiving“

“one of my favorite restaurants in Philadelphia and beyond. delicious and creative dishes, kind and present service, a thoughtful and complex wine list and beverage program in a very unique space overlooking south philly.

i’ve been here numerous times with different parties and i’ve always had a great experience. it’s also one of the few restaurants I can consistently get in with a last-minute reservation or walk-in while still feeling the place is lively and bumping every time I’m there. it’s a delicate balance and they nail it consistently. chef Michael’s food is excellent, bev director Michael has put together an awesome program and chef Ervis is such a handsome and gentle man who also happens to make great pastas. what a combo.

I love Irwin’s.“

“My wife and I love The Saloon Restaurant.....the food is outstanding and the atmosphere is great. We eat at the Saloon when ever we are in the Philadelphia area or any where near Philly!!! IT IS OUR FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN PHILADELPHIA AND THE UNITED STATES, FOR THAT MATTER!!! IF YOU ARE IN PHILLY, DON'T MISS THE SALOON!!! DEM“

“Excellent Food & Amazing Service 👍👍“

“Great dinner and wonderful service!“

“Highly recommend this local Fishtown family owned establishment. The grocery selection is fabulously curated and don’t get me started on the hoagies 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤. Love to love this place. All the vibes. ♥️✌️“

“The homemade pasta is really excellent. The texture was perfectly toothsome. I got the cacio e pepperoncini (vegan option) and it was quite good, though the sauce wasn’t my favorite. It felt very oily and I’m not sure if that’s a product of veganizing the sauce. I loved the tangy spice of the pepperoncini though.

The shishito peppers were good, but fairly standard blistered peppers like I’ve had at many other restaurants. The almond / mint sauce was quite nice though.

The plates are generously portioned.

Vegetarian options: They have a few vegetarian options that are clearly labeled. They also have clear labels for dishes that can be made vegetarian or vegan.“

“celebrated my daughter's 16th birthday last night and everything was perfect.“

“I can't describe how satisfying was our dinner. Above any expectations. One of the best meals I’ve ever had!
Pricey, but worth every penny.
Gorgeous antique decor and flawless food—I’m definitely coming back with friends and family!
Thank you!“

“A varied menu with options for all. Nice portion sizes. The $45 table d'hote (with a complimentary bottle of house montepulciano if two people order) is a great deal. Lots of locals there on a Tuesday means good value. Friendly vibe. Would return.“

“Went here last night with 16 people and everything was amazing from service to main course, the main reason why I am writing this review is because my seafood Fra Diavolo was absolutely amazing I will go back and order this again and again and again what a great place I highly recommend this place“

“I have had perhaps 6 to 8 important family gatherings/parties at Amici in the last five years, and it just gets better and better. Tonight we had an anniversary dinner and it couldn’t have gone better. They know how important service is to their clients and it is their number one priority with a close second being there incredible food, which is always so impressive. Thank you to the talented owners, managers, servers and also Halle at the front, who truly makes everyone feel welcome and served and happy.

“Buca D'Oro is one of our favorite restaurants in Philly. It's Italian fare is "light" as opposed to the heavier Italian dishes that are commonplace throughout the city. From Appetizers to Entrees to Deserts, the dishes are delicious. Wines are also very good and reasonably priced.“

“great food great customer service great atmosphere good pricing considering great food“

“I originally gave this place 1 star, now they have new owners or new management or both. So far, everything I have order was good, no problem with pick up or delivery. I haven't tried everything yet, just the pasta dishes and they were all delicious. Customer Service was good too“

“Awesome food and wonderful family owned restaurant“

“Great cocktails, delicious food, and overall great atmosphere“

“The pizza,wings and fries are really good however even though the cheesesteaks have a lot of meat they are on the dry side. The owners are super nice“

“We had the most amazing meal on Mother’s Day at Albertino’s Italian! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. 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“

“We had our son’s rehearsal dinner here, everything was great . We Had Taylor , who did everything, she was by herself, due to someone calling out . She severed over 30 people from Appetizers to dessert all with a smile . She helped set everything up and was amazing . Great food and atmosphere! A super special shout out to Taylor , she’s an absolute ROCKSTAR!“

“We just moved to the neighborhood and are exploring all the restaurants!! Radcchio is so welcoming! Food is fantastic! Everyone who walks in seem like they are all regulars. Everyone gets a hand shake or a hugs. We were so happy to have found this place to be one of our neighborhood faves!!“

“We have eaten here several times and have always enjoyed great service and excellent food!!“

“Thank heavens for Colonial Beach Local Foodie’s referral. Meet a gentleman at Thousand Trails resort just outside of Colonial Beach Va. that had a thick Upstate NY accent. We preceded to reminisce about family in Upstate NY,, of course food rolled into the conversation,. That’s how I came across Nonna Lena’s Italian Cuisine. 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. OMGoodness, the next day my breakfast was fantastic. Foodie’s note. Their food is prepared fresh from scratch daily😊. Don’t past by Colonial Beach Va. without dinning at Nonna Lena’s Italian several times.“

“Food was very good. Disappointed in portion size for price $35 dollars for pasta seemed a lot for this amount“
