A good choice if PARC is not available Food.
Very good Atmosphere- medium Service- so so

Decided to try this place out to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and it was one of our best and favorite dining experiences to date. Our server, Ebony, truly made the experience one of a kind and made great suggestions, and was just such a lig

Nice ambiance, especially sitting outside, but food was nothing very special. My favorite was the crudo but I had had higher hopes for the pasta since that's what theyre known for

Sat at the bar with a friend recently and we were catching up chatting and didn't look at the menu immediately but we put in drink orders and got them shortly after. The male bartender kept coming up to us looking to get a food order and we apol
Go to Parc instead
We came here on 10/04/25 for breakfast. There was no one else in the place when we arrived and as we left. We ordered smoked salmon bruschetta and also the cheese omelet. The cheese omelet was supposed to have cheese as well as asparagus. It had

Everything was presented nicely and the restaurant itself had wonderful ambiance and kind staff, but all the dishes left something to be desired in terms of flavor, apart from the hamachi crudo

Went for brunch and lived it! The food and the drinks and the service are all excellent. Will definitely be back for dinner and happy hour!

Took the whole family here and everyone left happy (and full). They have something for picky eaters and foodies alike, which is rare. Extra points for the kid-friendly menu.
Gone here a few times for brunch.
Every time the service has been super personable, light hearted, lovely and charismatic. I can't remember their name, but they had fun piercings and big curly dyed hair. The crudo, this restaurant group (Schulson Collective) remains consistent
TOOD LOUD
TOO LOUD! The decibel level was off the charts & even the outdoor seating had speakers blasting music. People don't go to restaurants to listen to music; they go to enjoy conversation & good food. A fine menu destroyed by a painful le
The food here was fantastic.
We had the focaccia, which came with a honey butter that I wanted to eat with a spoon. We also had the asparagus and two pastas- the tagliatelle and the spaghetti with crab. The tagliatelle had a creamy tomato sauce that we dipped into with the bread
Service was attentive, personable, quick! , and informative.
Our server knew the menu inside and out. Food was DELISH. We had the baby gem ceasar, focaccia ( straight from heaven!), hamachi crudo, and sparkling water. For mains hubby had the branzino and I had the cacio e pepe. Loveee the decor- very meat pa
Came here on a weekday evening for dinner with friends.
We started off sharing the Foccacia with honey butter and bee pollen, which was some of the best bread I've had. The honey butter served on the side was actually mouthwateringly good, a little sweet and a little salty. I also got the Cacio E Pep
On the pricy side but worth it.
We ordered Burrata, Tuna Crudo, Ravioli, Polenta, and Branzino. Their dishes come with a complex palate, you will taste layers of flavors. Our favorites are the Ravilloli and Tuna Crudo. We will for sure come back, maybe for the tasting menu.
Food here is delicious!!! I recommend the chef's tasting
Food here is delicious!!! I recommend the chef's tasting menu if you are there with a party of 2-3. You get your money's worth and get to try some amazing dishes! Happy hour is also great. If not doing these, it can be a little pricy for th

All the pasta was delicious, but our favorite thing was the focaccia bread. Loved sitting outside in the air conditioned booth.

Visited for the last time last night and had a great experience overall. Our server, Ren, was incredibly welcoming and did a great job introducing the menu and guiding us through our choices. Since it was late and we'd been eating all day, we de
SIPS at Via Locusta
We went for SIPS, and unfortunately, got there right when they stopped seating. However, the kind manager found us a table that had a canceled reservation. The table was perfect, as was the restaurant. Very nice atmosphere and SIPS menu. We would lov
Lovely from start to finish.
What a delight. I went out for a dinner with my daughter and her boyfriend. They have been raving about the restaurant, so we finally got to go when I was visiting. The food is anything but ordinary. It's so nice to go out for a meal I can�
Great expectations... but...
I was very disappointed with the restaurant. While the menu options sounded incredible, the dishes didn't deliver. The ricotta gnocchi with lemon sauce tasted like dessert to me. There was an excessive amount of sweetness in the sauce that trul
Disappointed
The menu looked really good. But the broccolini appetizer was mucked unnecessarily with a garlicky brown sauce, and the polenta was over salted. The gnudi were... simply not right: too salty and too garlicky. The agnolotti were good but too salty. Th
Bery Good Itilian
The Chianti wine was so delicious. We had several starters that were very tasty. The crab spaghetti and the branzino were cooked to perfection and tasted very good. I plan to visit again when I return to Philly.
Great brunch on Sunday
We had a nice brunch at Via Locusta..some interesting menu options and drinks…at 10:30AM everybody was having cocktails in this place…service could be better…staff has to be more customer focused
Comfortable and delish!
We had an early dinner before a show. Got to take advantage of happy hour for drinks and shareable plates. I usually can pass on the bread, but the focaccia was way too good! Branzino for my main meal was one of the best dishes I’ve had. Very wel
Connect with users posting reservations for Via Locusta Philadelphia
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Via Locusta Philadelphia. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Via Locusta Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Via Locusta Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Via Locusta Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Via Locusta Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
