Le Virtu is a gem for Italian fine dining in Philadelphia. The cuisine is from Abruzzo, a region not normally represented amongst the red sauce and gravy establishments. We absolutely love the pastas - haven’t had a bad one yet - and find the specials on the menu have been a home run. There’s a great selection of cocktails and wine plus the enormous patio.
We had a pretty great meal here. Just a few things that were kind of “off.” We had been seated inside due to limited seating outdoors, which was fine since we were walk-ins. However, inside lighting is super dim, I had to lean towards the doorway to see the menu. Not a big deal.
As we were looking over the menu I overheard another table complain about the service being slow and the meal being disappointing from start to finish. I felt bad for the waitress...

The wine, bread, antipasti and pasta were excellent and deserve 5 stars, The main courses were not quite the show stoppers everything else was, but still good.
What stood out the most was the service. Attentive, thoughtful and considerate. Consummate professionalism with a smile in the very highest standard of Italian restaurants.
