Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in West Philadelphia

Service was outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our starters (burrata and tartare) and main courses (trout special and salmon). Atmosphere was lively yet sophisticated with families, birthday parties, work get togethers, and couples. We had a fantastic dining experience, and will be back.

I was there on Christmas Day evening. It was very busy and both the Kitchen and the front of the house did a really good job. My server was prompt and very attentive and my food arrived quickly and was hot and of good flavor yet I did not feel rushed. I live in the neighborhood and will definitely return.

An outstanding dining experience. The staff is wonderful, conscientious , and very professional. We never felt like the staff hovered over us but were present when needed. Any questions we had about the menu, specials, or general were answered. Never did we feel rushed or pushed to order anything we didn’t want. The cuisine is exceptional and speaks for itself. I will tell everyone I meet to enjoy the dining experience. The ambiance is intimate and makes you feel like you’re dining with your large family. Thank you.

Some excellent dishes served to the four of us. The portions are generous and of quality. One appetizer, the fried calamari, was neither crisp nor hot, so we hope they can bring it out of the kitchen quicker. The four main courses including the fish special demonstrated an excellent chef. All of the deserts were Diner quality and need to be reimagined. Cold crème brûlée? We will be back and hope they take the few needed steps to become a designation restaurant.

Each dish was delicious. Special shoutout to the tiramisu, and Liz. Excited to come back again in a few months and see how the restaurant has flourished!
