Had a very pleasant solo meal experience here on a snowy Sunday evening. The bartender was very attentive and welcoming. There was another woman eating at the bar nearby. The food was good, especially the salad. The pizza made to order was just OK, the cauliflower crust did not stand up to the heavy veggies, however. I would go back.

The service and atmosphere was great. It can definitely get loud in here at late lunch and dinner times. Anytime I come to Philadelphia, I visit Pietro’s. The food is delectable. The tomato sauce is phenomenal so I highly recommend the arancini appetizer and chicken maralsa entree.

Decided to try Pietro’s and was not disappointed. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. We were seated outside against the glass and we were able to people-watch and just enjoy the ambiance.

We came back to Peitros again for lunch and I tried a new dish. I had the chicken parmesan with spaghetti and it was excellent. Vielma is the most amazing waitress we’ve had and I’ll make sure to always request her as our waitress. Kudos to the other wait staff as well.

We had dinner for two at Pietro’s Italian in Philadelphia around 6pm on a Tuesday, and it was such a great experience! The restaurant wasn’t very busy, which made for a relaxed and comfortable meal. The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. I highly recommend trying the sangria—it was fantastic! And the barese pizza was sooooo good I wish I could’ve finished it all. I’ll absolutely be back the next time I’m in town!

A Perfect Spot for a Special Celebration
We recently celebrated my sister’s birthday at Pietro’s Italian, and from start to finish, it was a fantastic experience. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish felt like it was made with love. The pizza had that perfect crispy crust with fresh, flavorful toppings, the pasta was rich and comforting, and even the salads stood out with fresh ingredients and bold dressings.
The ambiance was lively and welcoming—perfect for a celebration. There’s a great energy in the space, full of warmth, conversation, and that classic Italian charm. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure the birthday girl felt extra special.
Whether you’re planning a celebration or just in the mood for a hearty Italian meal, Pietro’s delivers across the board. We left full, happy, and already talking about coming back again soon.

The food here was amazing truly delicious Italian dishes that we really enjoyed. Unfortunately, the noise level was so high that we found ourselves practically screaming at our server just so he could hear us. The salad also needed more dressing; it was so dry it felt like we were turtles chewing through lettuce.
That being said, the rest of the meal was outstanding and full of flavor. If they could turn down the volume a bit and add a touch more dressing to the salads, this place would be perfect!

Delicious pasta in general so I highly recommend! My brother liked their pizza but I think it was just good, not great.

Branzino and zucchini pasta! They got it right! I dine here at least once a month. My favorite appetizer is the calamari and sausage–soo gooood! I typically get pizza but yesterday I tried something new!

Adding drinks gets pricey. Pizza was good. Meatballs were ok. We were celebrating my wife’s bday and they brought a candle with her dessert without making a huge commotion which was great. Our server was amazing and very accommodating.
