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.
Different than the south Philly Italian spots that feel like nonna's cooking, this feels like actual Italy. The food is outstanding, the ambiance is so unique with the gelateria and market of Italian specialty items. The service some may say is eh and slow, I think it's more their authentic Italian vibe to sit and enjoy and so they don't rush anything. Pastas are decadent but not overdone, gelato is luscious. Highly recommend this neighborhood gem!
A spectacular birthday lunch for my wife. Our daughter joined us for great food drinks and service. Our warm welcome by Manager Cara was followed by excellent service from Thomas. Really solid and professional. Cocktails, wine, appetizer, entrees, desserts, teas and espresso. Everything perfect and on time from the kitchen. Their singing Happy Birthday in Italian to my wife was a welcome bonus! Thank you!!!!
