La Famiglia Ristorante
The food was exceptional. Authentic Italian. Perfect place for a romantic date.
Slow service.
Service is really exceptional! Lovely place for a special meal
Beautiful restaurant
Service is second to none. Extremely personable and make you feel at home. Always great with their menu suggestions as well
Food was excellent as usual. Service was good up until we finished dinner and then we waited a while for server to return to ask about dessert. We got dessert to go and we’re disappointed with very thin piece of cheesecake in box for $12. We will return but skip the dessert!
Friendly hosts, and servers, and great service. Highly recommended!
Was so nice to return to La Famiglia. Rarely go out on Valentine's Day but made an exception this year knowing the experience would be fantastic, even on a holiday. Food was it's usual high standards, service attentive but at our own pace. Great wine recommendation and so nice to have tall dinner candles lit on the table. A rare and welcome respite in the Covid world. Felt very safe throughout.
Great time as usual. Food was perfect, experience was the best.
Everything was delicious and the service was great 😊 Will definitely be back!
This was such a nice place. The staff was very friendly but not overbearing. The waiter was knowledgeable. The food was good but the tiramisu was out of this world. Best I've ever had.
Great special birthday dinner went well!!! Jesus is the boss a must for anyone coming out of town this place is incredible the venue since 1976 has prestige !! It’s vintage old school Philly
Once again, our experience here was excellent. This is without a doubt the greatest Italian restaurant in the city. The food is to die for, the service is always top-notch and the atmosphere is just perfect old-school Italian. I couldn't possibly recommend them more highly.
Very good food and the service was outstanding
We were not sure what we would find due to COVID but....the experience, the food, the staff were all exceptional. We have a great meal and great service.
Fantastic restaurant with exceptional service. Wine selection was amazing and food was great. We’ll be back soon!
This is my favorite restaurant in Philadelphia. We try to get there at least every other month. We have been going there since 1980. The food is great, the ambiance is calm, the wine list is probably the best in the city for Italian wine. Plan to spend an evening of relaxation. Do not skip the pasta, probably the best I have ever had. Don't be afraid of the wine list. Yes it is large but the waitstaff will help.
La Famiglia is one of the last “great” restaurants. I’ve been dining here since I was a child and the pride in service, food, presentation is still evident today. Relatively few restaurants know how to make their guests feel as if they are the most important guests of the evening. La Famiglia does it sincerely. It is like dining with beloved friends. The food, as always, is exquisite. Fresh, simple but elegant, you can’t go wrong with any item on the menu. Ask to see their wine book.if you can’t find a wine to enjoy, it doesn’t exists. An elegant, highly enjoyable dining experience.treat yourself and dine there as soon as possible.
Wonderful night. Gaetano was awesome. Food delicious. We will be back!
Best Italian restaurant in Philadelphia
Incredible meal. What a truly wonderful dining experience. This is an absolute must visit if you love traditional Italian cuisine. The service is impeccable and on this particular visit the owner made us feel as though we were actually eating in his home.
By far the best Italian restaurant in the city always has been my favorite place to go in all of Philadelphia and the surrounding areas
Food was decent but extremely overpriced for what we got.
Understanding Covid has taken a toll could explain the smaller portions but to get 2 scallops for almost $40 is too much. I don’t like writing bad reviews but had to leave honest feedback here
Wonderful, old world. One of the last special places around.
I am never disappointed in the food or service. Everyone is professional yet friendly.
My favorite restaurant...
Service was good but portions were small and not enough variety on restaurant week menu. Food was either under or over seasoned.
Great food, great service, extensive wine list with really cool wine cellar. We will definitely return!
Decor is amazing; food and portions were definitely exaggerated. Prior to ordering the salmon, i inquired on portion; the waitress was misleading. Also, the lack of variety in side options wasn’t impressive.
Wonderful food wonderful service!! First time there. Will definitely go back.
Great traditional Italian dining, excellent service. I LOVE the fact that Open Table give a chance to rate noise levels. One of us suffers from some hearing loss and the staff was very considerate in what table they gave us and in adjusting the sound system so that the arias were not deafening. I look forward to returning. Restaurant Week menu had lots of tasty and interesting choices.
Food and service were excellent
Went for restaurant week. Service was fantastic, food was fantastic, and the setting is quiet, romantic, and beautiful. Sommelier was extremely helpful with the wine list, which is literally an encyclopedia of wine. All in all a beautiful evening that my girlfriend very much enjoyed.
An old favorite!!! Was glad to see it was participating in CC Restaurant Week. Food and service were exceptional.
If you have enjoyed La Famiglia in the past, I’d definitely say it’s a fantastic place to revisit!
Bait and switch on the $35 restaurant week special...when you arrive they’ll let you know it’s actually $48...wtf!?
Amazing!!! We had a wonderful dinner that was filled with incredible food and service!
La Familia and it’s sister RESTAURANT Panorama are by far the two finest Italian restaurants in the city the Johnny-come-lately’s can’t compare to these two classical Italian restaurants wonderful wonderful place always enjoyable been going there for 42 years
Servers were friendly and helpful. Food was fresh and delicious. Very extensive wine list! Great find in old city.
La Familia, along with Panorama, are our "go to" restaurants when we visit the Flower Show in Philly. Both were great this week.
Wonderful place for a great Italian meal in an old school setting
La Famiglia is old world high end Italian which never disappoints.
