Best Live Music Restaurants in Media

I think there may have been a substitute chef last night. Our boiled potatoes were hard, even after we sent them back the first time. They had the texture of steamed turnips. The order of fried Brussell sprouts served looked more like a bowl of charcoal. I was surprised they were even brought to the table. On the good side, the order of steamed Brussel sprouts was perfect as were the meatballs and eggplant parmigiana.

Wow! This was an awesome experience! As a fan of the Rocky film series, I knew about this place from the Rocky Balboa and Creed films. It is so much more than that, though. As the founder was a major player in early 20th century opera recordings, The Victor Cafe has an opera theme permeating its soul. The walls are adorned with photos of the opera greats, opera music plays softly in the background, and, most importantly, the waitstaff are all classically-trained opera performers. Every half hour or so, they gather everyone’s attention to perform a selection from a popular opera, complete with a synopsis of the story they’re about to tell through their performance. Every performer was wonderful and this made for a unique, joyful and memorable experience for my family. I grew up on Italian cuisine, and this was among the best I’ve had in a long time. We shared the Calamari Fritti, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that we could have substituted Smelts for the calamari. This was a staple of our Christmas Eve dinners when I was young. My Veal Saltimbocca was perfect, as was my Daughter’s Prince Igor (penne with a vodka blush, salmon, tomato, and Asparagus). We enjoyed our cannolis while watching our last performance of the evening. Breathtaking! Special shout out to our server, Brenna, who took our dessert order mere seconds after completing her duet! Remarkable! I can’t say enough about The Victor Cafe; if you’re looking for a classic South Philly Italian Restaurant, paired with one of the most wonderful and unique experiences you’ll find today, then this is the place for you.

First time but not our last. On our way to a play and wanted a great meal before. Perfect spot. Delicious food, amazing service. We brought my great niece and she was treated so well! Highly recommend.

Service, food and drinks were exceptional. Only downside was the heaters were not working so it was a little cold outside.

My husband and I celebrated our 5year anniversary last night and chose to spend it at the winery at grace inn. We always have an exceptional time. The food is amazing, I had the lamb meatball, beet raviloi, and ube pie; my husband got the wedge salad, hangar steak, and an affogato. Even the service was a 10/10, Candido was very attentive and explained all of the food and wine for the wine pairing option we chose. We also love the tasting room and have been there on several occasions. The wine, food, and service never disappoint.
