We're SERIOUS about fun food. That means despite our chill atmosphere, all our burgers and bites are hand-crafted from scratch and made-to-order. From our homemade buns to our hand-smashed 100% certified angus beef burgers, our food is meticulously hand-picked by Executive Chef Pryce Morhalo using only the freshest ingredients. We're raising the bar for casual dining. And frankly, we’re in a league of our own. Our Shoobie Shakes shook Philly. They're straight out of dream: a massive milkshake, swirled with whipped cream and fresh chocolate, rimmed with the dust of cookies or graham crackers, and topped with decadent desserts—an entire slice of cake, or a melt-in-your-mouth s’more. But these milkshakes aren’t just for kids. Our shakes deliver an unforgettable experience to cherish with someone special. Dietary restrictions? No problem. We're proud to offer a wide variety of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, making our dining experience exclusively inc

Pizza is a family affair for me. My Uncle arrived in America in the 1930s with a passion for pizza. He worked hard and eventually bought his own pizzeria in Brooklyn. It was there that Uncle invented a recipe for coal oven pizza. That recipe has been perfected over 60 years and passed down through the generations.Here in Philadelphia you can dine at 2 Pietro's locations: 1714 Walnut Street, and Radnor, Pa. I hope that you enjoy our classic style pizzas and pasta specialties "alla familia" for many years to come. Buon appetito

Our waitress Luciana was five star in world class, and then, of course, when they ring the bell and this petite little sweet waitress turns into a version of Beverly Sills and Pavarotti. It took our breath away. She blew all the other singers out of the water. We’ve been going to Victor‘s for years. The food has only gotten better than penne. Vodka was out of this world. It’s a destination, dining restaurant you’ll never forget.

The menu was exceptional, every flavor was paired perfectly with the protein of the dish. The wine pairing was an excellent addition, perfectly complimentary to the dishes. Nearly every staff member touched my table and was beyond friendly and knowledgeable. One of my favorite dining experiences in Philadelphia.
