Grazie di cuore a Giuliano e Michele per la splendida accoglienza. Al Café Michelangelo di Philadelphia ci si sente davvero come a casa. Un autentico ristorante italiano, dove la tradizione si respira nei sapori e nell’atmosfera. I piatti sono semplicemente squisiti, preparati con ingredienti freschi e tanta passione. Dalla pasta fatta in casa ai secondi ben curati, ogni portata è un viaggio in Italia. Il servizio è attento, cordiale e professionale, e l’ambiente caldo...

Great night of friends food and dancing. If we had a waiter that could handle a table of 12 would have been wo wonderful. He kept taking one order and leaving. I don't think he got any drinks for the table. We all went to bar for our drinks. Also I gave him cash for bill, he never asked if I needed change and didn't bring any back It was 30 percent. He didn't deserve it for sure. BTW. I would have told him to keep it but didn't like his assumption.

I ordered Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken the noodles weren’t cooked they were hard. The chicken was good. My husband ordered the fettuccine Alfredo too and his noodles were hard too. The waiter wasn’t that good, keep apologizing for taking to so long..
