About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Since 2001, Bellini has been a family-owned and operated spot serving up some of the most delicious and heartfelt Italian food around. Our chef, Francesco Parmisciano, was born and raised in the small town of San Marco di Castellabate located 30 miles south of Salerno, Italy, where he fell in love with the art of Italian cooking. He brings that passion to every dish with fresh flavors and beautiful presentation.

In 2021, Parid and Kristi Spiro took the reins and brought new energy to Bellini, keeping the spirit of the original while taking things to the next level. Our goal is simple: serve authentic Italian food in a welcoming space where everyone feels like family. Great food, great service —just a genuinely good time.

    This was our first time in Philadelphia and we have so enjoyed ourselves! Bellini is one of the reasons. The food was delicious, and the waitstaff were outstanding! We loved it so much we ate there twice! If you’re visiting Philadelphia, you must go there! You will be so happy you did!

    5 stars Bellini is hands-down our favorite spot in Philadelphia. Every time we’re in town, it’s the first place we go—and usually the last before we leave. It’s that good. The gnocchi is out of this world. Seriously. Whether you get it with the Gorgonzola or the Sorrento sauce, it melts in your mouth like no other. Light, pillowy, and packed with flavor—this is comfort food at its finest. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff always make us feel like family. It’s the kind of place you can’t wait to come back to. Bellini has become a tradition for us, and we recommend it to everyone we know. Don’t miss it.

    Always enjoy the food and experience at Bellini! Our server Robert was both knowledgeable and personable, as he briefly explained the interesting history behind Bellini and delicious menu items. We brought a couple of friends who thoroughly enjoyed the food and experience at Bellini.

    What can I say? If you have never eaten at Bellini you don't know what you're missing. Absolutely everything about our dining experience was exceptional. From the greeting at the door, to the attentive, friendly, professional, and unobtrusive service, to the incredibly flavorful menu offerings or evening specials, no stone is left unturned. Bellini continues to be our go to place to relax and enjoy uncompromising excellence in dining.
