This was truly an amazing meal. Having been to many many places in Philly, this was one that truly stood out. I’ll be returning. BYOB and great service with spectacular food. Chef came to table to greet us as well - magnificent.
Delicious Italian with fresh organic influences. The pappardelle is very good, and all pastas are homemade. BYOB and cash only, so one must come prepared, but it makes the price quite accommodating.
We’ve been to essentially all the top Italian restaurants in Philly and NYC, and this is one of our favorites, and an exceptional value when you consider it’s BYOB. From starters, to main courses to sides and desserts we are never disappointed, and they serve vegetables and seafood as interesting as they do meat and pasta dishes. I think I would classify their cooking style as “creative traditional” from a foundation of high quality ingredients. Interesting flavor choices without being molecular gastronomy, and classic Italian concepts without being “just another red sauce restaurant.”
The ambiance is nice too, “high end neighborhood restaurant” which works equally well for special occasions as it does for “that night you just don’t feel like cooking at home”
My friend and I really enjoyed our dinner...Good, delicious, greeter exceptional as our reservation was not at first found. Only negative is the noise level. I am sure cause is that ceiling has nothing added to absorb noise. I am sure that is a great expense to fix, but would make for a more enjoyable.timr.
Friendly staff. Fresh, delicious pasta that tastes home made. It's just the right level of chewy with the right amount of sauce. You can go with a heavier or lighter sauce and they're both good. Roasted cauliflower appetizer was delicious too. Definitely one of the better Italian meals I've had
Nice Italian BYOB located in Rittenhouse Sq in Philly. Food was fantastic. Scallop Crudo was delicious. Bruschetta had smoky eggplant taste and fennel salad was light and citrusy but not overpowering. Wild boar and Salmon were perfectly done. Food presentation and portion were on point. My fav was the poached pear dessert- very popular that night and we ended up getting the last one! Place is bit tight and can be noisy depending on the crowd but we loved it as it adds to the lively ambiance. Cash only.
Amazing food. Great, personal service. The meat eaters and vegetarians alike were thrilled with their food. Everything was fresh and flavorful. I had the gnudi and the cauliflower. Both we’re amazing. Will be back soon to try out their new pizza oven. Yummmm. Cash only. BYO
This intimate Italian Philly BYOB is nestled in the heart of Rittenhouse. A great date spot or girls night out. Every dish is superb and beautifully presented! Taste was beyond! Try the Wild Boar & Mushroom Pappardelle; unbelievable! Caesar salad with house-made croutons was the best! Their Focaccia bread alone will keep me coming back!
I recently celebrated my 26th birthday with my best friend at the Casta Diva and it was fabulous! The setting was very “Sex and the City” and would be perfect for girls night or couples night! We brought our own bottle of wine so that was really great. I’d recommend bringing two bottles. The calamari and the rib eye were delicious! We shared the most amazing piece of cake at the end and it was amazing. I’d absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a more upscale feel but not too formal. Thank you for the great service!
