Great Food
Stopped in for very late lunch on a weekday with the place a but empty. Waitress very courteous and helpful with menu. The fried asparagus appetizer was simply the best we have ever had, crispy, buttery and full of flavor. Same with my veal and wife's lobster franchais, she loved it. While a little pricy for the late lunch the experience overall was a 5.0 and we will certainly be going back!

Live in the neighborhood and guess pre-baby we never paid attention to prices. What a shame they charge outrageous prices for simple things that have caused this local couple to vow to never return. $4 for a 12oz cola, $7 for house poured Chianti. Seriously? And the food is wonderful - such a shame!

It's Villa
Ive been eating at Villa for over 35 years. The people that reviewed the waitresses as being "this or that" don't understand South Philly. That's what its suppose to be! Basil, Frankie and Pip are the best, they learned from Dominick, may he rest in peace. Go, eat and enjoy true south Philly Italian!

Dinner was Ok
Met friends in Philly after a day of touring the city. Our friends said that this place was great as I asked for somewhere casual. I did not want to get dressed up. It is not a fancy place but it was definitely busy. We went and were seated without too much of a wait. The menus are paper and while there were no descriptions of the dishes, the waitress did offer explanations. My friends ordered a salad to share that never arrived and overall the food was ok. I might try them again if I am in that neighborhood but I am not sure I would go out of my way to eat there. Overall my experience here was average.

not worth it
Went to dinner with my friend, the decor is old, my waitress seemed annoyed by our questions, the food was over priced and the entrees came with nothing but 3 pieces of asparagus. The menu said you could get spaghetti on the side for 3 dollars extra, but only in a red sauce. Are you kidding me, you can't add some olive oil and garlic? And only spaghetti, no capellini? Our eight dollar salad had russian dressing that tasted like it came from a bottle. I would never go back, there are so many other restaurants cheaper and have a better atmosphere and better tasting food. I felt like I was so ripped off when I left.
