Enjoyed our dinner very much. Food was excellent, wine was very good, service was a tad bit slow but it was fine. Loved the accordion and clarinet. Good music, good background, not very loud. Eating under the pergola was special.

Every meal we’ve had a Le Virtu (and we’re well into double digits) leaves us feeling great, not only about what we ate, but about life. There are only so many restaurants that are successfully rooted in the soul of the owners and the staff. Le Virtu is one of them. An evening meal on their patio, with the mural and the pergola and the street traffic, is what life is about! 

Business response:

Appreciated, Jim.

I'd like to talk right down to earth in a language that everybody here can easily understand...... Eating at Le Virtu is sublime. It starts out with the soft earth tones on the walls. Warmth is the key note. Comfort a close second. A wine selection chosen deliberately and with fun in mind. The menu... Ahhhh, the menu. This is an ever changing line up of delicacy and boldness, each in their place. It's been over 10 years since the very first time I dined at Le Virtu and the ravioli, stuffed with rabbit and topped with brown b... read more

What I just wrote at Yelp: >>>I'm a vegetarian giving five stars to a meat-slinging restaurant, because they are everything you want a restaurant to be -\-\ thoughtful, familiar, creative, always growing, solicitous but not overbearing, and authentic as they come. Philly is lucky to have Le Virtu. Next time you think, "Hell, I'm so OVER Philadelphia," think, "Yeah, but then there's Le Virtu." I mean, would you add a star to your review of Philadelphia because of one little restaurant in Passyunk? Yeah, you would.<<< 

Business response:

Thanks, Edward. So much.
