my favorite byo in philly. pleased with every dish that i've tried (almost every one on the menu) - favorites include zuppetta di coze, grigliata di calamari, ravioli alla viola, vitello alla viola, orrechiette, gnocchi; desserts are only average, though. small and almost always crowded....if there's a wait, walk across the street to la viola ouest. more
