Vita

“I took my girlfriend there for her birthday. Of course I kept the storyline a secret. I actually like we were gonna take a detour instead of going to the restaurant. She was so shocked finding out about the refrigerator door lead to a restaurant. The ambiance was great. Go on a mid day to avoid the crowd. The menu is kind of limited so if you have alot of food restrictions it might be challenging. Me and my lady both dont eat red meat and she barely eats chicken. We decided on getting 1 pasta, 1 main dish chicken, and 2 starters and shared all of it. Food was good. Our waiter was Fanstastic as well. And her drink was good.”

“Everyone was extremely nice, the service was attentive and quick. The space itself was very cozy and despite being loud from all of the other people, the acoustics of the room made it so you could hear the other people at your table just fine. The food and drinks were amazing. The gelato was really impressive. And our server Alex, who helped me decide half of what I got, made it unforgettable. Will definitely be back whenever I'm in Philly.”

“We love coming to Vita! Whether it’s a quick stop for their home made gelato or a night out for dinner, we know we are always going to get a solid product. The pasta is very fresh, and they offer a variety of other Italian dishes which always hit the spot. And the gelato is 10/10. Best spot in Philly!”

“We’ve always loved dining at Vita — for the food, the atmosphere, and the warm hospitality — but hosting our wedding party there took everything to another level. From the moment we started planning, the owners Massimo and Ana made us feel completely supported and understood. They took care of everything — the decorations, the food, the organization — with such thoughtfulness and care, it truly exceeded our expectations. The space looked absolutely beautiful on the night of the event — elegant, cozy, and full of charm. It felt like an extension of everything we already loved about Vita, just elevated for such a special occasion. As always, the food was outstanding. Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of authentic Italian flavor, and served with impeccable timing. We knew it would be good — because it always is — but somehow it was even better than we imagined. Our guests were blown away! The entire evening ran so smoothly thanks to the amazing staff, who were kind, professional, and incredibly attentive. A heartfelt thank you to Massimo and Ana for making our wedding celebration unforgettable. Your passion and warmth shine through in everything you do, and we’re so grateful we could celebrate such an important moment with you. If you’re looking for a place that combines excellent food, beautiful ambiance, and people who truly care, Vita is it.”

“I gave it two stars because the waiters were nice and the esthetics were beautiful. The food was horrible, the bread was hard the menu was very limited. The only thing I like was the carrots 🥕 the chicken didn't taste bad but it was not seasoned well. & the food took over a hour to come so I won't be going back. The pasta was not good either very bland and no taste.”
