About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
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.

    We made a last minute reservation & couldn’t have been happier. Small & quaint, the restaurant was hustling. Nice selection. Fabulous cocktails. Delicious food. Service was impeccable. We will definitely be back.

    Bellini is a hidden gem. The place could use a face lift, but the food, tight wine menu and service were outstanding. Highly recommend!

    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!!
