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
great service! Really like this place! Friendly, pleasant service without attitude. Go after 8 o'clock and miss the insanity of people going to the shows. Great views of the city. Fab wine list.
Editorial Review by Citysearch Editors – Center City trattoria with view of Avenue of the Arts serves northern Italian cuisine contained in glamorous dining rooms.
WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE! – I can't say enough about my dining experience at Upstares. We had a great waitress named Cat she treated us like royalty. Every morsel of food from our appetizers to dessert incredable. We had a great table overlooking the Avenue of the Arts. This place goes way beyond four stars! I know that this restaurant has been around for a long time and I hope that it will be around for many more years. I can't wait to go back again!
Truly an elevated dining experience – Somethings just get better with age. This is not often true but in the case of this restaurant...this cliche is accurate. I have been a patron for over 15 years. Sometimes only returning every couple of years. I just dined there last weekend and somehow the food and service seemed better than I ever remembered. I normally do not write reviews on web sites, but I must give this reliable establishment my true and unbiased rave. Keep up the good work!!!
