Had an absolutely amazing time! Came to Philly just for a night for my birthday. The entire staff is very accommodating. Our waiter explained the entire menu and gave us personal recommendations. We went with the tasting menu. He then explained every course and the wine pairings and why they were paired. Each course was mouth watering. However even if the meal was horrible and staff made this a place we'd definitely come back to. We have made a plan to try Scarpetta in all the cities that they are in. We just wish there could be one close to us in D.C. Maybe in the future?!
A group of us went here for my fiancé's birthday and we had an amazing time. The wait staff went above and beyond for this special occasion. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable from start to finish. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Great addition to the Philly food scene!
The service was fantastic from the moment we walked in and spoke to the hostess to our servers (I believe our server was Sal). Sal was kind, knowledgeable and attentive.
The food was beyond amazing. The aged duck was so good, it could almost make you cry. The scallops were seared perfectly and sweet. The octopus was so buttery soft and flavorful that I wish I could have eaten ten more servings. Even the bread was superb and well paired with the three accoutrements. I will definitely return whenever I visit Philly again.
Dining at Scarpetta Italian Restaurant was a fantastic experience. The bread service was a delightful start, truly amazing.
The food itself was excellent, and the mocktails were a pleasant surprise. What really stood out, though, was the top-notch service. Our waiter, despite not sharing our Astros fandom, provided excellent service throughout the meal, making our visit all the more enjoyable.
Interesting fact: In slang, “scarpetta” refers to the act of using a piece of bread to mop up or soak up the remaining sauce or juices on a plate after finishing a meal, typically in a restaurant. It’s a casual and informal term used to describe this practice of savoring every last bit of flavor from a dish, often seen as a sign of really enjoying the food. So, when someone says they’re doing “scarpetta,” they mean they’re using bread to clean their plate of any remaining delicious sauce or juices.
don’t look up to find it :)
It was really nice. I had the best rocket salad ever. The cocktail was delicious.
The staff was helpful. I asked some suggestions and they were all great.
Recommended!
Managed to snag a reservation for Thanksgiving dinner at Scarpetta and had an outstanding time. We had previously visited Scarpetta for a pasta making class (which I highly recommend!) so we came in with elevated expectations. Service was fast and congenial, and the pre-fixe menu was varied enough for most people. Each dish we received was exceptional, with the turkey maybe being the best turkey I've tasted. Drinks were similarly strong and tasty. For Thanksgiving I'd definitely recommend a visit, and I plan to return for conventional dinner as well. The views of Rittenhouse park are awesome too - ask for a window seat!

10/10 we had the most incredible dinner here last night. I’m pretty particular and I thoroughly enjoyed absolutely everything about this restaurant start to finish. The food….the ambiance…the DRINKS. My husband and I can not wait to come back. I ordered the seared scallops with spaghetti squash and a cucumber Gimlet ….no words. INCREDIBLE. The gimlet was the most delicious drink I’ve had in a very long time and the meal was superb. The portions were absolutely perfect and a “normal” amount, not too large and we left fully satisfied and full. New favorite Philly restaurant!!
Our server Liz was so sweet. She was attentive and made me and my guests feel so welcome. The manager Vince was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to apologize for a very minor issue. We were blown away by his hospitality.
We had an odd situation where we had 2 large groups and were initially told we could not be seated close to each other. Luckily the manager allowed us. I should note that the other tables around us were not seated the entire time we dined so I'm not sure what the initial denial was about.
Where do I start!?!? This place was great! From the service, to the food, to the environment! Awesome! The manager, Jean-Paul was so down to earth and made sure me and my friends had everything we needed. Kayla and Ryan were so nice and super attentive. We stayed for drinks and enjoyed the vibes of the bar. Would give Scarpetta a 10 if I could. Me and my girls will definitely be back.
I took my girlfriend here for her 36th birthday and we had an absolutely wonderful experience. The food was so rich and tasty, and the atmosphere was perfectly fitting. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and the drinks from the bar were top tier!
