    Me and friends went for a semi-large group happy hour after work on a Tuesday. It was pretty empty, which was great for us to enjoy the space to chat and catch up without being crowded like other bars would be for happy hour. The drink and food specials for happy hour were very well priced (some $4 beers, $7 wine, $9 spritz and $5 snacks)! I enjoyed my spritz and beer, chips and focaccia. The employees were kind and gave us sharing plates and napkins, and allowed us to move some chairs around so our group could all sit together. Overall awesome place, I will definitely be back!

    Came for Happy Hour which is offered M-F, 5-6 pm. There's a good selection of appetizers all for $5. Everything is vegetarian. Portion sizes were large for 2 people. We tried the artichoke, polenta fries, bruschetta and focaccia/ricotta. Everything was fresh, well seasoned and flavorful. Service was wonderful and the seating was cozy.

    Cheese Board, Polenta Fries

    Came here for happy hour and I honestly really enjoyed it! The bartender was a super cool guy who gave lots of recommendations and was also open to making anything, even if it wasn't on the menu! We got some of the snacks as well, and I LOVED the polenta fries. It was surprisingly empty when I went but I enjoyed the atmosphere. A good place to go to catch up with a friend and just enjoy some drinks!

    I usually stop into DiBruno's for groceries, but this time I was spending the afternoon around Rittenhouse, so I popped in for a quick bite. I got the pepperoni pizza, which had a nice crispy bottom. There was plenty of cafe and lounge style seating and the service was quick. If they didn't have a drink or bite on the menu, you could easily head downstairs to pick something up that suits your taste. For around $10, it was a good spot for a quick lunch with reliable quality you expect from DiBruno's.

    What a great find!! Sitting on top of DiBruno Bros. Is an amazing restaurant serving al the lovely delicious food items sold before it. We started off with the cocoa with friend. No it doesn't mean drinking the delicious cocoa together but mixed with your choice of alcohol. I picked the amaretto which was an amazing combination of the rich chocolate and almond flavor topping with some of the best whipped cream I have had in a long time. We picked the extravaganza tray due to it offering the largest combination of meats, cheeses, fruit, nuts etc.... It was a perfect combination. Not matter how you sacked it it was an explosion of flavor. I could have sat there all day picking at each morsel offered. Mixing the meats and cheeses with the honey comb, mustard and cranberry chutney not to mention the pickled fruit, fig and cashews was unbelievable. Service was spot on!! This is not a place to miss.

    So excited to finally check our Alimentari! The decor is always so beautiful especially around this time of the year. Last year, the top floor was only open for holiday gifts and drinks, but they've reopened recently serving drinks and food. We got the tomato soup and the grilled cheese, definitely some strong smelling cheese but sooo delicious. Wish the portions were a little larger, but still a delicious little snack for midday.

    Burrata & Pear salad
    Samantha M.

    Finally was able to check out this place and it has a homey ambience. Either option of table, lounge or bar top seating to choose from. They serve brunch on the weekends and have a full bar. Fresh ingredients are used in all their plates- we opted with the burrata, Cacio e Pepe and calamari- all very delicious. Our sever was very pleasant and provided great service. Would easily return to try more options, especially their pizza!

    Just had a baby shower here in the upstairs area and it was fantastic! The food was wonderful, so many lovely selections and all of the guests were commenting on how delicious everything was. Many of them went downstairs to buy products afterwards The setting & ambiance was lovely. Music and arrangements made for a social, chatty, relaxed environment and everyone had a great time. The coordinators, Beth & Michael, and the chef were great to work with and helped make the event a hit. The servers were also lovely Would highly recommend this for any sort of friends or family gathering. We were so happy with it

    I arrived here 5 minutes before it opened. I was greeted by Mike who asked me to wait on the couch. The waiting area is very spacious and homy. Mike is very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Panzanella salad: very delicious. It has shaved brussel sprouts, small diced purple carrots, raisins, hazelnuts, and croutons with light and not acidic dressing. It's a crunchy salad. I had small but I can easily finish the big one. Roasted branzino is served with pastina and capers. It's a little bit too salty because of the capers. The fish is perfectly cooked. Portion size isn't bog so it's perfect for lunch. Budino: rich chocolate but not overly sweet. Great way to end your meal. Service was excellent. Everyone was friendly, courteous, and welcoming. I had a delightful conversation with Mike. I feel I've known him for years. He accompanied me to the elevator because I had a heavy shopping cart. Definitely come back more often

    Ricotta tartine
    Stephanie W.

    Vibes: classy, minimalistic cafe with some organicity from wooden tones, small plants, and natural lighting Tasting notes: -Bread service: olive oil crostini was very crunchy and surprisingly flavorful; raisin walnut bread had a soft interior with a light chew and a good ratio of juicy raisin and slightly soft walnuts to bread; focaccia was savory, on the denser side with a slightly crisp exterior -Ricotta tartine: generous topping of speck that hid the soft slices of pear; loved the variety of textures and flavors; bread was perfect in thickness and toastiness -Mushroom panini: mushrooms were chewy and earthy; cheese provided the rich umami flavor, shallots added some sweetness and a subtle tang; side salad was a refreshing contrast tossed in the lightest of dressing -Braised lamb gnocchi: sauce was not too salty, provided most of the flavor for the dish; meat was very tender; gnocchi were pillow soft with rich creamy filling to contrast the intense flavor of the sauce Other thoughts: -Came right at 11am on a weekday for lunch, very small crowd when we arrived -Our server Justin was very thoughtful and attentive: he had every dish prepared for two to share -Food came out as it was prepared -Would come back for the mushroom panini, and to try a meat and cheese plate paired with drinks to get a fuller DiBruno dining experience!

    I immediately loved this place. From the friendly service and terrific food to the welcoming space, it just had a great vibe. We were lucky enough to come during the weekday for an early lunch so it wasn't yet crowded. We were able to enjoy an unhurried meal and great conversation over a delicious charcuterie board. Highly recommended.

    Cacio e pepe
    Sarah S.

    Gorgeous spot for lunch any day of the week. I would say their "brunch" is just fully lunch as there are no eggs or breakfast foods available but that's okay! The Cacio e Pepe was fabulous and the meatballs were okay (a little dry/dense for my taste) but I'd definitely recommend this spot if you want to impress your coworkers or have a special lunch coming up

    Elizabeth S.

    Super cute spot! Comfortable is definitely the right word for this place! Walk through di bruno bros to the stairs and you come to this quaint Cafe. Very European Italian vibe. They have a great cocktail menu and reasonably priced dining options. I ordered the burrata and heirloom tomatoe salad with prosciutto and it was delicious. The servers were friendly. The pizza looked AMAZING and you get two slices for $12! You can't beat that. Plan a lunch date here and grab a dessert on the way out!

This swanky, hip place…read moreoffers up elevated tasty food and superb service in an exquisitely decorated, albeit small, cafe. We braved negative degree weather for the roughly 10 minute walk from our hotel. We walked in at a good time. This is the type of place where a reservation for breakfast would be required. We were sat immediately. The dining area is tight. A green velvet bench, marble tables, metal chairs, all packed into a small area. You could very well have your butt brush over the table of the patrons next to you if you have to get up for any reason. It's tight. Our server was around quickly. He was super friendly and kept things conversational, light and sophisticated. My wife ordered an iced latte, I had their hot drip coffee. For a starter, we had to try the cinnamon knot bread. While it wasn't what we were expecting, it was good. Although, we wouldn't order again. The bread is presented as a small loaf, room temperature with a cold cream cheese icing drizzled over top. The bread had a mild cinnamon flavor and was dry. It lacked the sweet, moist dough you expect from a cinnamon bread. My wife ordered the French style omelet. This had gruyere cheese and chives. Beautifully plated, perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on. It was good enough to forget that she paid $21 for just an omelet, no meat, no sides. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Pretty standard here. The eggs had bright orange yolks which is common for farm fresh eggs. The "coffee" hollandaise didn't come across with a coffee flavor but it was rich and went well with the ham and English muffins. One thing that stuck with me was their drip coffee. Not sure if it has been a while since I had a light roast but the Rival Bros. Revolver coffee was so good, I got a bag of whole beans to bring back home with me. I may even order it again online. Enswell succeeded on all fronts. The ambiance and service was great. The decor, impeccable. The food, thoughtful and tasty. The details from the silverware to the plates added to the experience. We would come back.

I felt like I ordered the wrong combination. I was able to do an egg sandwich and swap for sourdough bread vs eng muffin. Love that. Didn't love the copper sharp cheese that was a bit messy and tangy. I kept thinking they must have added some type of sauce on it. I'd much rather come back for a simple fried egg combo and chedda cheese. I was also offered sparkling water, but I do wish it had more fizz. The service start to finish was superb in friendly and fast service. I'd come back for mimosa/bar for sure.

From the moment you step inside, the ambiance wraps around you like a gentle welcome. Soft lighting, warm wood tones, and a subtle hum of conversation create an atmosphere that feels both intimate and effortlessly comfortable. It's the kind of space where you can settle in immediately, whether you're meeting a friend or savoring a quiet moment alone. The most recent time, I enjoyed the short bread sandwich--DELICIOUS horseradish cream. They have GREAT N/A drink options. I love their cheesecake. The service is consistently gracious without ever feeling over-rehearsed. Staff members greet you with genuine warmth, offering thoughtful recommendations and an easy attentiveness that enhances the experience without intruding on it. There's a natural flow to the way they interact--always available when you need them, never hovering--and it reflects a team that clearly takes pride in making guests feel at home. What truly elevates Tria Rittenhouse, though, is its beautiful design. Every detail seems considered: the artful arrangement of tables, the textures of the furnishings, even the way the bar anchors the room with understated elegance. The design strikes a balance between sophistication and approachability, creating a space that feels curated yet never pretentious. It's visually inviting in a way that encourages lingering, whether you're enjoying a glass of wine or simply taking in the surroundings. All together, the warm ambiance, gracious service, and thoughtfully crafted design make Tria Rittenhouse a place that's easy to return to again and again. It's the kind of spot that reminds you how a well-designed environment and genuinely welcoming service can transform a simple outing into something memorable.

Our party ordered 4 spritzes and 1 N/A drink, which they messed up and brought all alcoholic drinks, but quickly fixed it when we noticed. The bartender was very apologetic (though i think our server gave him the wrong order so it wasn't his fault). We also got a cheeseboard to share, which was bigger than the server made it sound and not bad for a little snack between the 5 of us. Overall nothing was super special, but it was a nice spot to stop in and have a drink and a bite. Would consider coming back if I'm killing time in the area.

The tasting menu had three tiers you could choose from- $35, $45, and $55/person. We chose the $55/person option which included the full menu of tapas as well as dessert. They pick the most popular dishes to bring out to the table but also allow you to request any specifically that you'd like. By the end of night, we had a TON of food, even more than we could finish, and ended up trying at least 15 different dishes. All the food was great, with some of my favorites being the eggplant caponata (cold, very flavorful), scallops a la plancha, jamon & manchego croquetas, spiced beef empanadas, and the paellas. Favorite dessert was the chocolate cake, but we were received all the desserts other than the ice cream and sorbet. I may have liked the food experience less if I had ordered off the regular menu and only tried a few small plate, but I loved the option of trying so many dishes. By the time we finished everything, we had been there for over 3 hours (including lots of wine of course), which was really fun! The place gets packed on a Saturday night so we would not have gotten in without a reservation.

    Ended up here by accident because I was window shopping with my 3 year old and he suddenly shouted…read more"I need to potty"...most establishments do not have restrooms available to the public so I figured our best bet was a restaurant and popped in here. The staff were immediately sympathetic, super friendly and helpful. Of course, as if I wasn't embarrassed enough, as soon as the 3 year old washed his hands, he shouted "I'm hungry" (is this sort of human I'm raising?). We were already in a restaurant so why not. Before being seated or looking at the menu, I asked for some fries to be put in and the waitress offered some chicken tenders. After finally looking over the menu, I don't think these are regular offerings so I appreciated them trying to be accommodating to a frazzled parent at dinner time. My vegan mother in law joined us and we were pleased that there were so many options for her. My absolute favourite (such that I had to order another round) was the eggplant caponata - perfectly sweet with a little bit of spice. It was so warm and comforting - exactly what I want at the end of a long cold day. My MIL's fav were the Brussels sprouts - they had a tang reminiscent of buffalo sauce and were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, textured heaven (extra bonus points for the 3 year old absolutely LOVING them - he redeemed himself). If you like hummus, try the spinach and chick pea cazuela. Squash is in season so I knew it was going to be delightful - the pomegranate was a combination that was new to me, but it didn't disappoint. We didn't try the roasted carrots (because my household is all carroted out for the moment) but someone one table over was gushing over them. As a meat eater, I have to say that the non meat tapas were standouts - I tried the empanadas, they were fine; I didn't enjoy the meatballs and I just wanted to order more of the eggplant caponata. All in all, I would definitely come back, maybe for drinks with friends or date night. The drink list looked inviting and nothing says intimacy like mood lighting and shared plates. The price (without alcohol) was very approachable - for $80 a vegan, a 3 year old and a frazzled mom left satiated.

I recommend a party of 3-4 to really maximize your experience. However, this year, we just weren't as hungry, so we did some girl math and decided it would be cheaper to do ala cart. We ordered two of the famous spicy caesar salads (must order!!), a ricotta toast, a White Claw pizza, and a finished off our meal sharing two chocolate budinos. The White Claw is a pretty classic white pizza, mozzarella and swirls of basil pesto; the crust is amazing! It pairs perfectly with the salad. The ricotta toast is decadent and addicting, but a little bit goes a long way. The chocolate budino was outstanding - sweet, with hints of espresso. We won't talk about how I ended up with some of it on my white turtleneck... Service was friendly and QUICK! We ordered, and I swear we had our first dishes in less than 10 minutes. The server was a doll, though I can't recall his name. Downside of Prunella, like anywhere in Center City, is there is no parking. Upside, is you're just a short walk from the 13th St. Septa Station, and you're literally equidistant from Broad and Market streets. Pro-tip: Killer happy hour specials, but only at the bar. Good selection of beverages, if you're into that type of thing. Come hungry, leave happy, and maybe don't wear white.
