The space was spotless and welcoming, perfect for a midday meal. Outstanding service Waitstaff and bartenders (Nicole) was amazing, consistently deliver a 10/10 experience. Our bartender was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Delicious, creative dishes Short rib ravioli: outstanding and highly recommended. Pasta carbonara: consistently delicious and a reliable favorite. Family-friendly and versatile Great option for both lunch and dinner. The staff remains on point, making it easy to return with family or for a solo visit.

The sauce is not clerk sweet and the peppers themselves are not overly spicy, the peppers themselves are almost in the background when taking a bite. Their mussel appetizer is a generous portion with the mussels being the meatier ones, which I prefer as more meat and they are more flavorful! Mixed drinks can be a hit or miss as I find the aperol spritz sometimes is made on the weaker side and their margs are not always shaken well. I tend to stick with the wines. For dessert the tiramisu is always a go to choice as it is a generous portion. Lady, the atmosphere never misses. I love to sit at the tables in the bar area but their dining room is just as nice. Overall this is a consistent spot for food, atmosphere, service, and an overall nice afternoon/evening out.

    For the gluten averse: Menu is marked (looking for blue circles on the dark menu is a challenge but…read moreyou can do it!). No dedicated fryer. No dedicated pizza oven. GF Pizza crust (rice based, 12" only) for $3 and GF fusilli for $2 more can sub in for any pasta dish except ravioli. Server is kind, friendly and knows the menu and GF limitations. I appreciate that she is honest about their limitations. The music in the bathroom is fantastic. And the all-gender individual bathrooms are clean. Small parking lot and street parking available. I'd make a reservation during weekend dinner times.

The outdoor dining area, suitable and open during warmer weather, has ample seating. The menu features primarily Italian and Italian-inspired dishes. I really enjoyed my selections--the roasted cauliflower and small pizza (both pictured). The toasted cauliflower was tasty, and the small pizza was definitely sufficient for 2 people. I tried to refrain from the eating the whole thing in one sitting, but I failed in that regard. It was so good. The service was attentive and friendly, and I enjoyed being able to sign up for the frequent dining program through Toast, allowing me to access my loyalty earnings in one place along with other establishments that also participate.

Service like that always makes a difference and he made the experience feel really relaxed and welcoming. The space itself is cute and has a really nice vibe. They have a grass wall that makes a perfect photo backdrop, but just a heads up -- you'll need a larger table in front of it to sit there. If you're hoping to grab that spot for pictures, definitely come with a group of four or more. Another huge plus: free parking. If you know Philly, you know that alone is a win. It made getting there and leaving super easy. Making a reservation was also simple, and the crowd when we went was really diverse, which I always appreciate. Now the important part -- the food and drinks were great. I loved my drinks and everything we ordered hit the mark. One thing I really appreciated was the avocado toast, which was made with actual fresh avocado instead of one of those pre-made spreads a lot of places use. You can definitely taste the difference. Overall it was a really solid experience with good food, good drinks, great service, and a fun atmosphere. I'd absolutely come back. What we ordered: * Hugo Spritz * Bellini * Focaccia * Avocado Toast * Steak & Eggs * Sweet Pea * Devil's Pool * Espresso Crème Brûlée

The drinks were okay, but could've been a little stronger. The food was good with nice-sized portions, and everything came out quickly. The staff was very friendly, and the service was prompt throughout the night. The restaurant itself was very pretty. I would definitely recommend this place.

Cool vibe and delicious, affordable food (we were there for lunch). Street parking only, which wasn't an issue on a Wednesday afternoon, but would be challenging on weekends when people flock to neighboring Wissahickon Park. Their Italian specialties are only served at dinner, so we'll definitely return to try the tortellini. Ooh, and save room for the warm brownie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Ideal stop after exploring the Arboretum all morning.

Asked for a roast pork with provolone and spinach, but got it with red peppers instead. When I brought it to her attention, she was apologetic and said the kitchen messed up the ticket and could make another one, but when I asked how long, they said 4-5 mins. As I was with two friends who were already eating, I did not want them to wait, so I just accepted the sandwich I was given. It wasn't very good. When the bill came, there was nothing taken off for the mistake. I would have expected maybe the onion rings comped or something, or at least they could have offered to make my order on the fly, but neither was the case. That's a surefire way of having customers never return.
