Girasole - PhiladelphiaGreat Meal with FriendsWe took friends who had whole fish baked in a salt crust while in Europe. The were curious to see how it was done at Girasole. They were very happy with Bronzino. The wine, the service, and the ambiance were also top notch.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMSpectacular new menuGirasole's new menu features beloved dishes from Angela Iovino's remarkable repertoire, as well as new interpretations of Italian standards. Meatballs in tomato sauce were a featured appetizer on my last visit; a standard that was truly memorable. The first noticeable difference is the sauce: it is made from fresh tomatoes and bursts with tomato flavor. And the meatballs were perfect: nicely textured, and carefully flavored, yet so light they nearly floated from the dish; the work of the hand of a master, not iron, chef. This was followed by farfalle in pesto sauce: pasta cooked to the exact point of 'doneness' and cloaked the freshest basil and pine nut pesto. A dinner that nicely complimented a fine spring evening.
