Via Locusta Reviews
Great little spot, elevated Italian from all the regions, but northern is the reference. Well appointed wine list with an elevated offering noted as "Reserve". We loved the foccaccia and their honey butter accents the flavors. Not overly rosemary or olive oil scented. The Mafalde Bolognese was meaty, al dented, and succulent. A nice spot to pop into. The service was casual, attentive, and careful.
Popped in as a sole diner late evening and was swiftly seated at the bar. Service was punctual and friendly, with a great ambiance within the restaurant.I started with the well recommended focaccia that was light and pillowy with a lovely soft butter pairing.My entree (ravioli) arrived as I was eating my appetizer which left me feeling a little rushed to eat. The rest of the evening was lovely. The loss of that 5th star was purely down to being rushed with the food

Hands down the best meal I’ve had so far in Philly! We shared the Chef Special and every dish we tried was amazing. Definitely recommend the foccacia (pictured), tuna crudo, ravioli with sweet potato, and cacio e pepe. Our waitress, Kaitlyn, was helpful in explaining the menu and provided great recommendations and service. Can’t wait to go back!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free pasta is available.
