Marra's is the Italian restaurant your parents would love, and they probably already do. An institution on Passyunk Ave, Marra's is known for traditional Italian dining. It's an ideal spot for getting together your whole clan, breaking open a bottle of wine, and going into a pasta coma.
I can't believe Marra's has never been rated. It has to be the BEST Italian Restaurant in Philadelphia. Hands Down! It's not expensive, casual setting and you can get in & out quickly. Try their pizza, which is the best overall in South Philadelphia. The mussels in red sauce are the best I've ever had anywhere. Although, I've been to New York and back as well as Italy, Marra's is the best Philadelphia has to offer in Italian food. It is consistently great, no matter which night you go. Don't miss it!
Best Restaurant Ever! – I can't believe what I'm reading. I love Marra's! I live in Southwest Florida now and Marra's is my #1 destination when I get to Philly. In May, I drove from the airport directly to Marra's even before checking in my hotel. The manicotti is so delicious, it's like eating dessert for your meal. The Sarcone's bread is heaven and a perfect compliment to every meal. marra's antipasta is a favorite as is the grilled chicken sandwich with spinach and provolone cheese. It is always crowded and always noisey.... read more
MARRA'S - DON'T GO! – I have heard so many goods things about this restaurant as I have lived in Philly all my life. What a disappointment! Let me first say I have given this place more that one chance to meet it's reputation. Shame on me! I went to dinner recently and was sat in the dining room to the left of the front door, which was filled with screaming kids. I understand its not Marra's responsibility, but there were plenty of over empty tables in a quieter area. The waitress forgot one of our two appetizers. Never even... read more
Terrible telephone service – The man who usually answers the phone is NEVER in a good mood and is always nasty. I will NEVER call or go there again! I have had it!
I had the misfortune of eating here – I'm sure this was a good restaurant at one time. I cannot imagine how they kept a good reputation though. Italian food is supposed to be flavorful. I was stunned at the blandness. I could not make tomato sauce bland if I tried. It was very disappointing. Also, how do you serve mediocre bread in South Philly????? The service was bad. Our waitress handed at least four of our dinners to the person closest to her and left it to us to pass plates around until it got to the right person. Why n... read more
Don't Bother – Where do I begin? I remember eating at Marra's as a child and through my high school years. So they came to mind one night when I wanted some pizza delivery. BIG MISTAKE!! Not only did I wait an hour and 15 minutes for my pizza, when I called to check the status, the guy said it would be here shortly and hung up. When I called back he told me to "Take it easy." When the pizza finally arrived it was the wrong order and they forgot my soda. To top it all off when I called to complain, the guy said he could repla... read more
He said she said – some people say that the service is horrible...I say that is he said she said. Why? Because some never explain their answer... The service isn't "horrible" because you may have to wait longer than some resturaunts...the only reason why the wait is longer is because people enjoy the resturaunt in general. Obviously if it is a well-liked resturaunt, It's not going to be dead. Yes, people may wait but take into consideration that the place is crowded, they don't have TONS of staff, they make fresh food that i... read more
Italian food – This is not authentic Italian cuisine. I am an Italian girl and if they can;t do a simple red sauce right then I dont come back . It is all about the red sauce.
