“Reliable” pastas at “amazing prices” and “attentive” service make this cash-only Rittenhouse Italian BYO a “bargain”; along with its sibling across the street, it’s “perfect for pre-theater”, and while some recommend “earplugs” for the “noise level” in a room so “cramped” some quip all “40-odd patrons have to take turns breathing”, most report “leaving with a full belly and a smile.”
Italian B.Y.O.B. serves upscale South Philly fare to an uptown crowd.:
