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.“

“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!!“

The cocktails were also nicely done. I enjoyed a Manhattan before dinner and a chocolate martini with dessert. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. Saloon is one of our favorite restaurants in the city.“

“I’ve heard about Fiorino for so long, especially from someone who lives in Florida! I finally went and it was all they said it would be! Absolutely delicious! I asked our server what entree I should get because I couldn’t decide between 2 of them that I wanted. He said “No problem! I’ll bring you a half portion of each!” WHO does that in today’s world?! So absolutely kind and cool. I loved every single thing I had there and can’t wait to go back!“

“Came in from Denver and was craving some great Italian. They did not disappoint! Service was excellent. Food was amazing! Clams Casino and Meatballs appetizer set a high bar for the rest of the meal, and they nailed it. Seafood ala Scannichios and the NY strip longjohn were hugely portioned and delicious. Others in our party had the Shrimp Scampi, Chicken Parm and a few others- and they raved about them. Tiramisu and Bananas Foster were sublime. The owner Christian and his family really made us feel welcomed. We will definitely be back on future trips.“

“My all time favorite Philly restaurant! Delicious food, amazing service, and the best atmosphere in Fitler Square! 10/10!“

“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!“

“Gorgeous location, great service, and most importantly the food is amazing. I fervently wish Irwin’s existed in my hometown as I’m sure I would become a regular. As it is, I will definitely be going back the next time I’m in Philly. The setting, on the 8th floor of an old school building, is extremely cool and aesthetic and they styled the space beautifully with lots of plants. The view is wonderful. I went with a friend and we shared a “girl dinner” of four desserts followed by pasta. I keep thinking about the gelato I had, which was flavored with sweet cream and topped with a layer of honey and a mound of pistachios. The sweet and salty combination was amazing. Another standout was the orange olive oil torte with a bay leaf-infused cream. The lemon pasta was simple with a depth of flavor and strong umami. The bathroom also gets excellent lighting for selfies. Highly recommend.“

“I had dinner at La Sera the other day and was impressed. The appetizers were delicious--we had the calamari, cozze, and mushrooms. All were delicious, but the mushrooms were phenomenal. For entrees, our table had the ribeye, veal ripieno, spaghetti and meatballs, and ravioli rosa. Everyone loved their food.

And I must give a special shout out to Meritan. I realized the next day that I left my hat at the restaurant and I had already left for the airport to return to Florida. I connected with Meritan who I coordinated with to have it shipped to my house.

In all, La Sera offers delicious food and service from good people. I will certainly be back.“

“As per always, our eating experience was outstanding in every way. We enjoy bringing friends here, as each and every one of them also enjoys the meal and the service (shout out to Carlos?). Every dish is delicious, there are no wrong picks.“

“We used Pepperoncini as the on-site catering for our wedding in Exton. Tom and his team did an AMAZING job! Our guests raved about the delicious food. The service by Tina and Alyssa at the event was exceptional. Tom worked with us to plan a day that we wanted. We would 100% recommend Pepperoncini for all of your catering needs. They took our event to the next level. The food is first-class all the way!“

“Nice place to enjoy a great dinner. BYOB“

“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“

“Ask for Ray — he’s the best“

“Great dinner and wonderful service!“

“10/10 do recommend. Excellent pup cup served. Filled to the top and swirled with love. Non dairy so belly doesn’t get upset. Mom loves their coffee and generally picks up some baked goods as well. I can generally convince her to share. My favorite is the lemon cake.“

“A group of 10 of us met here yesterday for lunch. The food was absolutely fantastic and the owner and staff are the best!! Multiple people said this is the best(fish,ravioli chicken)I’ve ever had. This will be our place to get together from now on!! Thanks for having our loud bunch and coming out to be loud with us😀“

“A charming spot with the warmest people with olde school Italian food that hits the mark. Buona Sera Havertown has a warm welcoming atmosphere, excellent staff and a great menu of everyone’s favorites. Since 2022, this throwback has been a favorite in town. The shrimp pastas was excellent But the hit was the Scaloppine Alla Cardinale veal scaloppine sauteed with white wine, prosciutto, mozzarella and topped with roasted peppers.. The menu includes enough veal, seafood, chicken, sausage, and steak entrees to make choosing just one a challenge. Oh and yes the calamari and fresh mozzarella apps were bellissimo! Homemade desserts galore…need more reasons to go? No.“

“Our server was great. i think her name was Natalie. The food was great. We did the family style. Very tasty, superb.“

“From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The food is outstanding—everything from the authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, with its perfectly charred crust and rich, flavorful sauce, to the homemade pasta and classic Italian dishes was absolutely delicious. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, and the flavors speak for themselves. But what really made our night special was the amazing service at the bar, thanks to Nick and Jack. These two are hands-down some of the best bartenders in Newtown Square! Not only are they knowledgeable about cocktails, wine, and beer selections, but they also make every guest feel like a regular. Their energy, professionalism, and attention to detail set them apart. Whether you’re looking for the perfect craft cocktail or just great conversation, Nick and Jack make the bar experience at Carmine’s unforgettable. If you’re in the Newtown Square area and looking for delicious Italian food, a great bar, and top-tier service, Carmine’s is the place to go. We can’t wait to come back!“
