My boyfriend and I went here for Valentine's Dinner and had an absolutely great time! The Valentine's menu was delicious, the service was great, and the complimentary lemoncello and chocolatecello (sp?) were fabulous! If you haven't been here yet, you must go try it out.

A group of my friends get together for dinner a few times a year. In December of 2009, we chose Caffe Valentino. It will be the last time we dine there. The caesar salad was small and bland. I had to put salt on it (I never use salt). The tomatoes on the tomato/mozzarella appetizer were not ripe and hard as a rock. My chicken marsala sauce had no flavor at all and hardly any mushrooms. Everyone was disappointed. It is a BYOB and we brought wine with us. We all had an appetizer and entree (no dessert), most prices low to mid.... read more

Terrible Experience – I went to this place with a big group and had the worst time ever. They took forever, served crap, and charged us top price. I often eat at different byo restaurants in philly so I know whats around and this was by far my least favorite. Others such as La Viola as L'Angolo are much smaller but WAY MORE enjoyable. For $40 per person we were disrespected by being served a plate of mixed greens (nothing else in the salad, literally only mixed greens), penne a la vodka that tasted and looked like kraft easy... read more

I just went there last weekend for the first time, and this place is great! It's beautiful, the food is delicious, and the service is very attentive. I have to say, I was shocked at how good the service was, because they were really busy. We lucked out and only had to wait about 15 minutes for a table, even though we didn't have a reservation. I highly recommend this place, and next time I'll make a reservation for the weekend!

Best place for Italian Food!!! – I love this place because the food is great! We are the returning customers and always love Antonio's food (the main chef). I like his stile of cooking: grilled vegetables (perfectly cooked), no butter added to meat of fish - very important to me.

Awful Awful Awful! – My boyfriend and I had reservations there for Valentines Day as well. I was really excited about the menu and the date in general. However, as we showed up to a lobby stuffed with people, the mood seemed to change. Not only were there people waiting since 7pm when we showed up for our 8pm reservations, there was no hostess as the door. After 10 minutes of deciding whether or stay or go, the host called our name (out of nowhere) we went up to the dining room feeling like we had won the lottery. Except tha... read more

Awful Experience! – My wife and I booked this place for Valentine's Day. We were excited to try somewhere new. Our reservations were for 9pm. We were seated 45 minutes late. Twenty minutes went by before anyone bothered to acknowledge that we were seated. Fortunately, I brought my own bottle opener to uncork our wine. I had to lend it to the table next to us so we could at least have a drink to celebrate. Once the food arrived, the portions were small, but that was overlooked because the food was awful anyway. At 11:45pm, I ... read more

Best BYOB – I love this place! The food is delicious and well priced. The new banquet room/dining room is beautiful. I'm planning my friends wedding shower there.
