Dining at Vetri Cucina is not just a meal—it’s an experience, and one that lingers in your memory long after the final course. Nestled in a charming townhouse in Center City, this intimate Italian restaurant delivers a masterclass in hospitality and culinary excellence. From the moment we walked in, the service was nothing short of impeccable. The staff struck the perfect balance between professionalism and warmth, making us feel like honored guests in a dear friend’s home. Every member of the team was attentive without being intrusive, and they went out of their way to accommodate dietary preferences and special requests with genuine care and enthusiasm. It’s clear that hospitality is a cornerstone of the Vetri philosophy—they don’t just serve food; they create a welcoming, personalized experience. What truly sets Vetri Cucina apart, though, is the seamless harmony between food and service. The staff’s deep knowledge of the menu and their passion for the craft added a rich layer of storytelling to the evening. Every detail, from the pacing of the courses to the thoughtful explanations, was handled with grace and precision. In a city brimming with excellent restaurants, Vetri Cucina stands out as a beacon of fine dining done right. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking an unforgettable night out, this is a place where you’ll feel not just satisfied, but truly cared for.

About the restaurant

Welcome to Tria, Philly's original casual wine bar since 2004.

Our two Center City wine bars have helped elevate Philly’s wine scene while keeping it fun. Tria’s seasonally curated wine, cheese and beer menus showcase super-cool smaller producers who are driven by passion. The friendly Tria team will help you discover new flavor sensations if that’s your jawn. If you prefer, we’ll bring you more wine and leave you alone. It’s all good.

We love wine and it shows, but Tria above all is a community where guests come to relax and connect. There are no TVs or other distractions. The “concept” is for our guests to engage in conversation made livelier, deeper and cheerier by the wine. Cheers!

About the restaurant

The Sena family tradition of culinary excellence dates back to early 1947 when Carlo “Papa” Sena began to cook in postwar Naples. The family carried this experience across the Atlantic and opened La Famiglia in 1976 in the shell of a Colonial tea warehouse. Today, La Famiglia stands as the finest Italian restaurant in Philadelphia and a major landmark on the city’s vibrant restaurant scene.

Dinned on 04/29/25, Scott was our server. He was very informative and super attentive to our needs. He was great at selecting a wine that everyone enjoyed as well as meme explanations and suggestions. While the food is always top notch, the service really makes for the overall experience. We will return again in the near future. Our guest was also very impressed an stated that she & her husband would drive the many miles to enjoy this fine dining experience again. Please keep up this unique experience for years to come!
