Always like returning to this restaurant. Great appetizers. Penzance crisp and tasty crust. Mushroom appetizer flavorful. Hand made Pasta quite good. Service is always attentive. Nice ambience.
Always consistent. I forget how good their pizza is. The steak was perfectly cooked. Julio is a gem of a server.
Great vibe. Incredibly fresh food. Excellent service. And it’s in our neighborhood!! People casually dressed but upscale food. BYOB and wine sold as well. Did not disappoint!

I came here tonight (Thursday evening) with a party of 9 to celebrate a birthday, and although the food was great, the service was unprofessional. I saw a prior review which said that on Thursday nights there is only one server and that was the case for us as well. Even though we were the only people in the restaurant, our check had multiple errors and had to be sent back many times. Normally this would have been fine since we are a very relaxed group-but our waitress Stephanie was very rude with us when we brought up these inconsistencies, for example when we reminded her that she gave us an extra pasta by mistake even though we only ordered one of that kind- she kept saying ‘well you ate it didn’t you’ . But we didn’t want the extra one in the first place. I just think the service could be more amicable, but the ambiance and food was great.

Always a great meal and impeccable service!! This restaurant has a great vibe both inside and out. Will continue coming here for great food and bringing friends and family.
Food is always great and I am always surprised with their creative specials. Staff was also very attentive and accommodating. Great place to dine, quality and value is unmatched.
Favorite Italian restaurant in Philly! Loved the mushroom gnocchi and polpette. L'Anima always delivers and is an underrated gem.
Me and my boyfriend had a lovely dinner. Our server Adam, was wonderful, and knowledgeable. We just had 2 dishes, the saltimbocca and the pappardelle which were outstanding. I don't really eat pork but I'll eat the saltimbocca again and again. It was a nice night so we enjoyed dinner on the patio. Can't wait to come back, its a neighborhood gem

We’ve been here twice now in a couple of weeks and the food has been amazing. The menu changes often it seems and they always have new specials.
The pasta is amazing! We loved the beef Pappardelle and Amatriciana (a bit spicy).
We also really enjoyed the tuna crudo and the roasted artichoke.
I’m sure you couldn’t go wrong with anything you choose!!

We waited 25 minutes to see a server and then received an attitude because we were annoyed. He never apologized for us having to get up to ask for a server. Eventually another server came to our table to take care of us and apologized for the bad start. He took good care of us the remainder of the evening. The menu selections were different with no traditional options. We could not even order a side of pasta. Overall the food was average. The atmosphere was good but overall the dining experience was not worth the hefty bill for a BYOB.
We're so glad to have L'anima in the neighborhood! The staff is wonderful and friendly, and the food is consistently delicious.
The standards like the crab spaghetti are great, and the specials are always...special!
The patio is a lovely place to eat in nice weather. The inside is comfortable, but a little noisy when it's full.

It's our local restaurant where we are well taken care of and count on great food and service.
Great food and service. Like that it is a byob but also offers some wine selections. You also have the option to eat outdoors or indoors
Excellent service by Chris and delicious food including the tuna panzenella app along with the pappernelle. Nice weather so able to enjoy our meal outside on their patio.
