Scampi is a delightful culinary gem in Philly, offering a "personal and intimate" dining experience. Chef Liz captivates guests with her passion and storytelling, bringing Italian regions to life through her "fantastic" rotating menu. The boar ragù and tiramisu are "out of this world." Ideal for a unique, cozy night out!

Loved the menu, loved the presentation, loved the intimacy of the space. And the rotating menu means I would go back the next time I'm in Philly. Loved Scampi.

Chef Liz was wonderful and passionate about her curated menu, and funny throughout the night. I loved the origin stories that accompanied the dishes prepared and overall would recommend the experience.

Had the most lovely birthday dinner during the Toscono menu. Chef Liz & Co. served a fantastic dinner that had my fiancé and I stuffed to the gills (in the best way possible!!). It was such a wonderful treat to experience Tuscany through Chef Liz’s eyes! The boar ragù with fresh pappardelle was out of this world! Don’t miss out on this culinary gem!

What a fantastic experience! Liz & Ryan make you feel right at home. The menu was delicious, thoughtful, & transported us to Italy. Liz shared that her mission is to preserve traditional cooking methods & these recipes could not be in better hands. Can't wait to try next month's menu!

Awesome experience at a new Philly standout. Food is excellent, Chef is hysterical + welcoming, and it's great to learn about a new subregion of Italian food and culture each visit.

Highest possible recommendation. The value alone would make the meal worth it (let me be very clear, this is not a prix fixe that you will leave hungry). However the service and chef’s anecdotes and pieces of context about the menu make it a truly unique, intimate experience.
