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.

    Our favorite place to eat! No more needs to be said. This time we brought a friend and he became an immediate fan of the place. No doubt he’ll be back.

    Bellini has been our go to spot in Philly for a few years now and we’ve never been disappointed! Service is always friendly - they truly treat you like family. The food is delicious - last night I started with the Capesante in Padella (scallop appetizer) and had the veal Scallopini ai Carciofi for my entree while my husband had salad and the gnocchi di Gorgonzola. Everything is so fresh and cooked to order and the kitchen is very accommodating. Desserts are the perfect ending to a wonderful meal…extensive selection to please everyone’s sweet tooth! Nice selection of wines and cocktails to round out a wonderful dining experience!!

    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.
