    As always the staff at Fiorella goes above and beyond. We arrived for a Valentine’s Day reservation at 5:30 inside but an earlier seating wasn’t budging and we ended up not being sat until around 6. The staff immediately apologized for the wait and set us at ease by saying, “please take your time and don’t feel rushed — we have rearranged seatings.” We then were given a welcome glass of wine and a complimentary pasta for our patience. Again the staff just went above and beyond. Every dish was perfectly prepared and delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience once again.

    Late lunch after the Eagles Superbowl Parade. Very glad we had reservations considering the huge number of people in Center City. Despite being slammed, the Gran Caffe seated us promptly and the food came in a timely manner. Well done!! Great to be welcomed by Manager Cara and to receive such great service from Mimmo. Roberta was also great as part of the server team. Really fun!! We will be back!
