    I decided I wanted to have my birthday dinner at Ristorante LUCCA so we made the reservation…read more It was a really rainy night so we were thrilled when we saw they had complimentary valet parking. Walking in the hostesses greeted us and asked to take our coats and umbrellas. They were very complimentary of us and also gave me a single stem rose when they heard it was my birthday. Walking to our table we were able to take in the overall beauty and romantic ambiance in every room which was exactly what I hoped for. Our waiter and the staff were very attentive throughout the night and wanted to ensure we wanted for nothing. The food from the complimentary bread, olive, olive oil and prosciutto to the cocktails to the entrees and cannoli for dessert were a 10/10! We had not a single recommendation for improvement. After dinner we popped into the piano lounge for a night cap and to listen to the band. The lounge itself is sooo chic and plush!!! And the wait staff and bartenders are all top tier...they truly know how to create and overall start to finish fine dining experience. Oh and the band was fun! They asked for (& got) crowd participation which was fun to watch. This was 100% an overall romantic and fun fine dining experience and we already said we're coming back!

    My boyfriend brought me here for my birthday/out anniversary. We both loved it. Service was amazing…read moreand food was delicious. When we walked in, they started by taking my coat and handing me a rose. This is forever be our anniversary restaurant now. P.S. The cacio e pepe is to die for!

    If you're looking for more than just a delicious dinner this is a great spot! The jazz club was…read moreintimate but wonderful. Top notch talent. Staff was friendly and on point from beginning to end. They do take the dress code seriously, I saw people get turned away for athletic wear. It's clear on their website and not asking too much for an upscale night out. Prices weren't ridiculous, especially since portions were plentiful. A lot of people were leaving with leftovers. The specialty drinks are a bit pricey tho. The cornbread and Mac n cheese are a must order the moment you sit down to start things off. Both served in a small skillet, perfect to share. The cornbread bread was flavorful and the butter that comes on top you def want to let that melt right in! The Mac n cheese noodles were a little softer than I would of preferred but the blend of cheeses and the crisp crust on top made me not worry about the doneness of the noodles, it was top notch! We went classic with the entrees - catfish with gulf shrimp. The catfish was cooked perfect super tender and flaky. I wasn't thrilled with the shrimp, for "gulf shrimp" as they listed in the menu they were a lot Smaller than I expected and a little tough. The sauce they came in was nice. I would have liked some kind of sauce on the side for the catfish. The collard green rice was delicious and the broccoli that came with it was prob the most delicious broccoli I've ever had, just cooked well in lots of butter! The other entree we got was the fried chicken. Really delicious and tender. It came with a sweet potato side that was yummy and a classic collard greens Even tho we were stuffed we had to try the bread pudding, it was served with a Side of delicious ice cream. The bread pudding was perfect! I would definitely return even just to eat and try more menu items but the jazz club is a must do! Beautifully decorated and classy establishment all around

    This is a restaurant that I frequent and one that I recommend to any and anyone who is in Philly to…read morevisit so I was really taken aback when I walked in today to ask if I could get cornbread to take home from the bar as I didn't want to sit and eat it and was told there's no take out. I've gone to the bar on multiple occasions to get just cornbread and an entree to go as well as when I have had reservations to dine in, I've seen people come in, just go to the bar and order take out. I'm really disappointed at this experience and it seems like every time I go to South, It's a different experience and a different enforcement of rules.

    CTO Park Central and the band STOLE THE SHOW! What an amazing addition to our wedding night. We…read morehave had countless guests coming and absolutely raving about the band. They truly put in every effort to make our special night that much more enjoyable. We cannot express our gratitude enough. Some guests commented on their "front row seats to the concert" or asked "where did we find such talent?" and regarding "the incredible vocals at dinner (and beyond)" and ALL just raved about how great you all were. No one didn't mention the band :) The attention to every tiny and meaningful detail throughout the process from start to finish is 100% gold! They played extra long, non-stop, and kept the party going. Now we just need an excuse to book the band again! :) If you're planning an event, you need this band.

    Used CTO Park Central for our son's wedding and we could not have been more thrilled. From start to…read morefinish the band was professional, musical and probably the finest players and singers I have ever heard assembled in one place for a wedding band. They were also perfectly balanced in terms of sound. Not too loud at really any time for anyone. Kudos to the sound man that was included with the band. Carmen (owner) was so easy to work with and very flexible. Gloria (band leader and lead singer) was very accommodating both before and during the affair and sang beautifully. Our son chose CTO Park Central at one of CTO's showcases in Philadelphia and he knew this was the band for him and his bride. He could not have been more right.
