Best Food in Philadelphia! – I am an avid reader Philly Mag and when they announce the Best of Philly each year I make it a point to search out the best of restaurants and try them for myself! This restaurant has not only the best pasta in Philadelphia but all of the food there was excellent! We went twice so far since the magazine came out and already have plans to go for a third time. This is definitely the place to go for the best food.
best pasta, bread, and wine – I dont mind waiting for a table if the food is good, and let me tell you it is!!! I would wait an hour for the gnocchi truffle. Everytime I go there the menu has something new and exciting, I tried antelope the other night and it is awesome. Everyone need to go. Great!
Beware of hostess! – Wine list may be great, but service is poor. Without warning, our table was given away when a member of our party ended up arriving about 10 minutes late. People who walked in after us were then seated while we waited an additional 20 minutes. We were given a blank piece of paper from a cash register when we asked for a comment card! As for the food, we never waited to find out because we left.
Best kept secret – I have been to this establishment many times and I am always impressed by the selections on the menu. Every time I go, there is always something new to try. Their wine list is impressive with great values to be had and the cuvenee is also impressive. I recommend it to all of my friends and never heard a bad word said. The pasta is to die for and the decor is right out of Milan. (Actually it is as it was all imported from Northern Italy)
Very Good! – I was just there for a big family celebration dinner (10 adults) and it was so very good! It took us a while to figure out what to order because we loved all the dishes. The drinks are very good - even if you aren't a mix drinker like me - I got the Italian Punch drink, it was wonderful. My brother, who is a big wine person and knows his stuff, was very pleased with the selections. All of us were absolutely pleased with the entire meal, service and ambience of the restaurant. I am planning on going back soon wit... read more
Best in Philly – By far this is the best Italian food in Philadelphia! The gnocchi was excellent and melted in my mouth. I had the pleasure of meeting the Chef Brian Wilson who was extremely kind and gracious. I predict that this Chef will be on of the next top Chefs in the field. You heard it here first!
OK Food...Terrible service – This was our second time here-the first was disappointing, but after friends went and loved it, we decided to give it a second try. Well this time was no better. The service was rude. We had to ask if there were any fish specials( there are no seafood entrees on the dinner menu). All four of us had different pasta appetizers which were average at best. The 2 fish specials were trout and bass. The bass was dry and tasteless. We ordered a red and a white wine and after the waiter opened them, we we... read more
Le Castagne Misses the Point – Recently went to Le Castagne for dinner. Initially I was very excited about going there, and enjoyed a nice drink at the bar pior to dinner. The setting was excellent. After my party arrived we learned they did not have our reservations (as Jerry Seinfeld would say, "you know how to TAKE the reservation, you just don't know how to HOLD the reservation")... this is after they called us back to confirm the reservations. NOTE, they do not have assigned waiters to each table and "tag team" service ... read more
Great Food, Bad Service – Great Italian restaurant and the food is delicous! However, the wait staff is SLOW and had a bit of an attitude (we experienced everything from snotty to cocky). For dinner, I had the bruchetta, filet, and tiramisu - all to die for! My friend had the gnocchi and loved it as well. The restaurant is a little on the loud side and there is a very unattractive, fluorescent piece of art on the wall that they should take down immediately. Definitely try this restaurant, but I would suggest sitting in the f... read more
