Giuseppe & Sons Philadelphia Reviews
When an Italian restaurant and a speakeasy collide you'd
When an Italian restaurant and a speakeasy collide you'd imagine it to look like G&S. The basement decor is dark but inviting at the same time. The space is actually massive as well. The quality is authentic Italian cuisine that hits above t
We told them we were celebrating a birthday multiple times.
We ordered our dinner and multiple appetizers so for a table of 7 this was a big order. The food was great but after we ate we asked for a few boxes togo to save room for some classic Italian dessert. After we received our boxes it took 20 minutes fo

I've only ever been here for happy hour, but I love the ambiance. Such a cute place to grab a drink and some food - don't forget the ricotta toast! I sat at the bar and service was quick.

The fresh pasta tossed wonderfully, and perfectly in the Regio parmigiano cheese wheel will have me return over and over and over again! The house Sauvignon Blanc paired well with everything that I had.
The ambience is amazing.
Pasta with sausage was really good. Drinks were great. Looking forward to coming back soon!

I'm calling this a hidden gem because it's so unassuming from the outside and would never expect such an elegant restaurant tucked away in the basement. The decor is beautiful but the lighting was a little too dark. It's a large re

Of course I found out about this place because it's going viral on TikTok so I put it on my list. I happen to be right down the street from it that day so me and a friend stopped by during happy hour. The parking is crazy so I suggest you do no
Service was good, friendly, & timely.
Food was delicious. The atmosphere was too dark for me but otherwise it was a good experience. We ordered the Caesar salad, calamari, steak Stromboli, branzino, broccoli rabe, & shrimp scampi
Went here with two friends for my birthday dinner.
Horribly disappointing experience. The food was delicious, however, the service was abysmal at best. Kat was our server, he did not see us for 20 minutes after we sat down. I had to go to the hostess stand to have someone come get our drink order. We

Made a reservation for a Friday night date night, I LOVED the ambiance. The soft lighting was everything! The food was amazing, big portions, but did have to order pasta on the side. The server was super nice and attentive, despite it being a busy ni
Real delight!
Dined at Giuseppe on the 4th of July. It boasts lovely decor and has a great ambiance. We ate at the bar and were served by Claudia, a personable, lovely young lady who was also a great bartender! Based on her recommendations, the food we had was
Great vibe & good food!
Visited this place for dinner - it was all good except for my dish Chicken Scarpariello - way, way too oily, 3 small pieces of potato (one of the reasons I picked the dish) & too many peppers which overwhelmed what could be a very good entree! If
Absolutely Astonishing!
Could not have found better food. The hand pulled mozzarella was simply amazing and presentation was on point. There was always someone around to help and the kind man serving us was amazing! Really glad I came here.
Such a great evening
The food was amazing. The atmosphere was incredible and service was top notch. Definitely order the hand pulled mozzarella. Wow!
This place has gone downhillโฆ So many great restaurants in Philadelphia so donโt waste your time!
Booked 10 people here for a business dinner and it was terrible! I will never host here again as I was so embarrassed!!! The service sucked and management was zero helpโฆ. Let me bullet point - - whole experience was over 3 hours and solely becau
Hands down best happy hour
I came for a happy hour at Giuseppe & Sons in Philadelphia, and I must say, it exceeded all of my expectations. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, with a bustling crowd and a warm, welcoming vibe. The happy hour specials were impressive and
Has to be one of the best happy hours in the city
Really cool vibes at this underground spot in Center City. Great happy hour with great prices and variety of food and drink options. Can get a drink with a couple of food items for $25 with tax and tip. And it's really good food and drink. I wil

The restaurant is unassumingly spacious as you walk down the stairs towards the dining area. It's very well decorated and has a great ambiance. It has a full service bar. Service was a bit slow. For a table of 4, we ordered two apps - mussels and oct
i felt like the food was overpriced for its taste.
our server had so many tables he often forgot to check up on us. we never got an offer for a refill on the drinks we ordered. the ambiance was really good! but the prices just seemed too high for the quality of food.

Giuseppe's and Sons is one of my FAVORITE restaurants! I absolutely love their food and drinks. It's one of the few places that has Happy Hour Monday through Sunday 4-6. Their Shrimp Scampi and Rigatoni Alla Vodka is to die for! Amazing wine selectio

This is a very intriguing space, with a throwback pre-war secret society vibe. Descending underground and down a long draped hallway, you're deposited in a large but intimate area with a screaming roaring 20s aesthetic. As the name implies this is

It was Father's Day and surprisingly wasn't that busy. Took 10 minutes to be greeted by waiter and order drinks. We finished first round and were ready to order another but waiter didn't come back. By then we just asked for check. Disappointing v

This modern trattoria is exactly what the decor of an italian restaurant should be--perhaps it could be more modern with a more high tech and music vibe. I had a great meal of shrimp fra diavolo with fresh tomatoes, spicy sauce and a quality simple

Giuseppe and sons is always a great meal! The menu is very gluten free friendly and the gf pasta is so delicious! We tried rose Prosecco, hand pulled mozzarella, and rigatoni alla vodka. The vodka sauce is slightly spicy and great flavor.

When I told my friends I was coming to philly, they immediately made a reservation for Giuseppe & Sons, and I was so excited to try it. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The restaurant is located downstairs in the building, giving it a dark
Outstanding restaurant all around.
Some of the nicest staff, decor, and some of the best Italian food in Center City. This is a must try for all who want a solid Italian restaurant in the heart of Center City
Terrible!
We were really looking forward to dining here, as we booked our reservation 3 or 4 weeks in advance. Walked down the steps to a beautiful basement restaurant. Gorgeous bar and ambiance. We were told our table was not ready that it would be a little

We had the most amazing Happy Hour experience here!. Great prices, fabulous service and really fresh, tasty food! Honestly, we didn't expect to like it so much. We sat at the bar, which isn't our favorite, but it was great! I would definitely go b
Cheesy Cheerfulness
We dropped by after a Flyers game for our first visit to Giuseppe's. After getting past the initial surprise of the restaurant being in a basement, we were very favorably impressed. Great decor and lots of seating in a very large space. The table-sid
Clueless hostesses with attitude
Food is really good. I'll give them that. Why does a restaurant like this put a multimillion dollar investment into the hands of clueless arrogant hostesses?? If I owned this place and saw my crew- all finance guys that like to eat and drink, tel
Amazing, Authentic Italian in a beautiful setting

Had a 4:30 reservation on a Saturday. Walked down the steps and felt like going into a speak easy. There were people at the bar. We were seated right away as the restaurant was not crowded Told it gets busy around 7. Waiter was friendly and anwered
Another fine restaurant on Samson Street
We had a wonderful dinner at Giuseppe & Sons on a quiet Monday evening. We shared various plates; among my favorites were the artichokes, the orecchiette and sausage, and the veal parmigiana (we also tried the spaghetti and clams, gnocchi, and r
First Time
My wife had been to the establishment numerous times before i decided to give it a try. Nice trendy hip spot with good fare and hip drinks. Located in the happening spot of Center City! Gets busy during Happy Hour, the bar scene is cool.
OK food, but not customer centric and will not accommodate. Take notes from Olive Garden
Sunday night with the family, enjoyed the drinks previously and wanted to come back for dinner. We were disappointed that they couldn't cater for vegetarians, they couldn't substitute broccoli rabe or spinach for shrimp for one of our dishes. They c
Connect with users posting reservations for Giuseppe & Sons Philadelphia
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Giuseppe & Sons 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 Giuseppe & Sons 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 Giuseppe & Sons 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
* DistinguishedTree58, 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.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Giuseppe & Sons 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 DistinguishedTree58 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, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58'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 Giuseppe & Sons 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.
