AWFUL Customer Service!! – We are planning our rehearsal dinner and had to work with Brian their events coordinator. Well he took days to return a call or an email (3-5 days). Then when we wanted to come in and see the space that we were going to be in (6pm during a weekday during their normal business hours) we were told that no one could show us the room. Huh??! Brian told us that only a maitre'd works and he would be busy showing people tables and would not have two minutes to show us the space of where our rehearsal dinn... read more
Never going back – My husband and I were so excited to visit this establishment. The food was ok, our waitress was very nice, but in a city as big as Philadelphia, you would think that they would honor a parking garage to validate a ticket which was right next door. I was never so humiliated in my life. This restaurant is not worth going back to. The ambience needs help and I didn't feel the same as when I was in Capitol Grille. Not the same at all. I will go back to Capitol Grille again and again. But not this place, ever! ... read more
Good food in an empty without own soul and non-character place – Our third time in the restaurant. I received a promotional birthday certificate and we decided to give it another try. First, I made reservations for the Upstairs section of restaurant and was even added a comment when I made my reservation. Once again, my petition was ignored because they were only sitting people in first floor. The restaurant is missing something, it doesn?t have like an own soul, a character. The decor is more like a diner-seafood place rath... read more
Great dinning experience with reasonable prices – Went there last weekend as a Valentine Day weekend trip and ate at the lower level area. I most say I was very impressed by everything, the food, service, setting, the music etc. The manager (maybe owner) gave every woman in the restaurant a rose which was a great touch. The octopus salad and the scallops and risotto crab meat was phenomenal. The overall dinning experience was great and the prices very reasonable. Don?t understand some of the negative comments on this site. A... read more
Great service – I recently went to upstares at varalli and it was a stellar experience from begining to end. I had a problem with my entree and the manager while checking the table inquired about the meal. Before I knew it she, I think her name was Penny, had returned with a fresh cioppino that was the best I had ever had. The staff is top notch at this beautiful restaurant and the food is delicious. Thank you. Will be back soon.
Great place for Rehearsal dinner – We have been eating at Upstares for many years. The food, service, and views have always been memorable. So, when my son got engaged and we realized we would be hosting the rehearsal dinner, I suggested Upstares at Varalli. They both love the excitment of the city and felt the views would bring that element into the event. We worked with the event coordinator to create a special evening for my son and his new wife. We had full use of the entire dining room. The food was as great as it is in... read more
Nice ambiance, Decent customer service – We were seated promptly- had made reservations on a Saturday night, but they weren't needed. The piano player was excellent. Food was served fast and was decent- average italian. I had called in advance to let them know it was my husband's bday, but the dessert that was supposed to be brought out never showed. Wine list is very limited.
sometimes good – great location...good bread...most dishes are drenched in oil...average italian at average prices...
You're kidding, right? – I must have been mistaken in believing that the rave reviews were actually referring to Upstares at Varalli. View aside, I would not recommend it for anything, especially not the "Italian" food. I will be merciful and call the meal forgettable at best, but the bread was outright terrible (you Italians out there know how bread can make or break a meal). The bruschetta appetizer seemed like the frozen texas toast you can buy grocery store with some mealy tomatoes on top. Also, I had literally the most ... read more
