"We went here to celebrate our 5-year anniversary together and we could not have had a better time. The servers were kind, polite and professional and the food was excellent. We've been at Panorama before but this time was the best !"

"Friday night. Restaurant was understaffed. Service was professional but the servers were cranky. I have always loved this neighborhood gem, first of its kind in Philadelphia. The management has dropped the ball. No one is paying attention to service details."

"We went here for my husband's birthday and everything was fantastic. They gave us complimentary glasses of champagne when we arrived because I said we were celebrating a birthday. Service was fast and friendly and the food was delicious! The wine selection is out of this world. We'll definitely be back!"

"The ambiance and the staff were outstanding. The food was excellent and an exceptional wine list. They exceeded our expectations and they overheard it was my birthday and they came over with dessert and an after dinner drink for all of us. They made my day very special. I would go back there again and would highly recommend them."

"I first went to Panorama back in the 90's & I have always enjoyed returning there since then.
The service is excellant. Very attentive wait staff but they did not hover! I wasn't expecting the wait staff to top off my San Pelligrino water glass when it was 1/2 full...but they did. Nice touch.
The food was excellant as well. The pesto for dipping is wonderful. Lately some restaurants have added mint to their pesto which I find unappealing & turns the pesto an unnatural green. There is no mint in the pesto here! My girlfriend had the grilled Salmon & said it was the freshest Salmon she's ever eaten. I had chicken breast in pearl pasta - it was spectacular! We shared the spinach, goat cheese, & raisan salad with balsalmic. Very nice!"
