    What a great find! Been coming to Philly for years. Can't believe I haven't found this restaurant before. Good and ambiance was great! Loved the music and food was exceptional. Can't wait to go back! And it had a large parking lot.

    As always, another GREAT dining experience! 7 of us tonight - 4 adults, a Sweet 16 Birthday Girl, a 2 little ones 6 & 2 1/2. We were greeted & seated graciously & quickly. Our server Reilly was patient with us which was nice because of the kids, so we took a little longer than normal to order. The appetizers arrived promptly & hot. Main courses shortly thereafter. Portions were huge & food was DELICIOUS! This is the go-to place before or after a game or concert! Been going here for over 30 years & never had a bad meal yet!

    Excellent service. Beautiful restaurant. Classic white table cloths and good old school service. Good menu selections. I chose one of the specials for dinner which was wonderful. Would definitely recommend and would return.

    Our waiter, Frank, was relatively new, but very attentive to our needs. We don't live in South Philly but this is where we like to go on game days both for the Phillies and the Eagles. Tailgating to us is a bottle of red wine and a very nice Italian dinner.

    Coconut shrimp as an appetizer is delicious. Chicken Marsala is as good and their peach shortcake is absolutely delish.

    Delicious food and perfect atmosphere! My bestie and I went to Popi’s to celebrate our ‘big 60’ bdays. Our server, Joe, was friendly and responsive. We ordered appetizers (shrimp di John and roasted Italian veggies with burrata) and dinner (chicken Nicole). All of the food was delicious especially the chicken which was perfect in every way. The noise level was low and we were able to have a great conversation without feeling like we were yelling. The parking lot was also very convenient given Popi’s is in a south Philly neighborhood.
