Moonstruck has been our go to place for fine dining and celebration since 1980 after returning from Italy. The experience made me feel I had never left. From linen table cloths to crystal, from bread and olive oil, to antipasto to pasta and second course to dessert with wonderful wine as accompaniment. IMPECCABLE SERVICE!!TOTO , Clair, and our server Colin, you will be sorely missed. Love you and will now visit you in Bluebell. Tante aguri.!!!?❤?

A shame they have closed their doors. A go to celebration location for our family. Always good and very friendly. Guess we'll shift to Radice, Toto's other place. Been there too and its just as great.

We went back twice this month to enjoy the fabulous food, service, and ambience. Homemade pasta, wonderful salads, and a totally unique menu selection. The upscale ambience is wonderful. It's sad, however, that many think it's appropriate to wear extremely casual clothing, such as shorts and flip flops to such an elegant restaurant. We will miss the experience, and look forward to what the new owners have to offer.

absolutely delicious. Never disappoints. We have come here for over 2 decades. We are going to miss this place with all our hearts. Well.. we may miss Josephs more... We have been going there for about 50 years. This is devastating. THANK YOU ALL FOR SO MANY AMAZING & DELICIOUS MEMORIES. I can not stop crying.

We went one more time before they close. It was everything we remember from former visits. Wonderful food, service and ambience. Make sure to order a salad and a pasta course along with your entree. The veal envelopes and sautéed calves liver were wonderful, as were the spinach/ricotta gnocchi and the tortellini in Rosa sauce. Try to go before they close In September.

Moonstruck is a long time favorite of ours. An intimate bistro with truly delicious menus, we read that they will be closing this September due to the building being sold. We had to return for a final birthday celebration at this treasured restaurant. We will miss them greatly

Can not wait to return! Liver was delicious and I am not a liver fan. The veal involtini was also excellent. Looking forward to a return visit.

We are truly going to miss this intimate Italian bistro in Philly. Had to celebrate one last birthday dinner there as they will be shutting down sometime in late September. As always the food was delicious, the service impeccable and the atmosphere comfortable and low-key. They also own Radice in Blue Bell, PA so we will have to check out that location in coming months.

Love this restaurant- menu choices great , good wonderful. Service very slow. Waited for waitress, drinks , bread awhile. Was told kitchen busy and couldn't split pasta dish for two people. Surprised to be told that . Everything was delicious
Sarah, our server, was one of the most professional and kind servers I’ve ever had. Throughout a difficult night, she maintained a patient and accommodating demeanor. We had an amazing meal, with delicious ahi tuna, cheese cake, and chicken penne. Even when another customer was unkind to her and causing a scene, she treated everyone with the utmost respect. The manager on 7/17 was also very professional, patient, and kind. starsStaff: 5/5 starsEntertainment (haha): 5/5 stars

Only restaurant I get liver onions and bacon! Such a romantic pretty restaurant and our server was so attentive and friendly her name was Alexa . So appreciate people that are willing to work! Without her we would have the pleasure !!

Went on a Sunday night and had a wonderful experience. Started meeting Jack the bartender and having Ricardo as our waiter. Both were friendly and accommodating and made our night that much more enjoyable. The food and service are terrific and the ambiance is worth going.

This restaurant is amazing. The ambience is lovely and the service was perfect. The waiter was attentive but not intrusive. All four of us had different main courses and we were all pleased with our food. We can't wait to return!

The food and service are stellar. Few restaurants take the care that the chefs at Moonstruck do, and few restaurants have staff as attentive as you'll find here. One of my favorites.
