Prunella: Reviews & Ratings
It's such a cute spot! The happy hour menu is smash hit for us. There's a good variety so you don't feel bad missing out the main menu. Happy hour is only from 4pm to 6pm at the bar and outdoor seating as well. The food were all so good - especially the mozzarella with peaches. I was very doubtful at first but I'm completely sold at this point since the peaches gives a clean fresh feeling, it goes perfectly with the soft mozzarellacheese slices. If you got a date planned and no where to go yet- this is it!!! The atmosphere is so dainty clean and upscale casual vibe. The pizza is so good, thin and well balanced. GO AND TRY
Sipped a glass of house red during happy hour today and got 2 pizzas for take out to enjoy with my husband at home. Everything was great! My wine, the service, staff, atmosphere. Very friendly staff, they explained to me that they don't currently do delivery or pick up through Doordash but I was more than welcome to grab a seat at the bar and order pizza to go. While waiting, I ordered a glass of red (6 for house red that was really great!) and I read my Kindle. The atmosphere was very relaxing, not too noisy. The place was stylish and the green pants added an extra charm. I wasn't rushed even after my pizzas to go were ready in about 20min. Even when re-heated (we had dinner about 2 hours after I picked them up) they were delicious!! We got one mushroom and one pepperoni. I think the mushroom pizza is my new favorite in Philly. We will definitely be back!
We had an awesome time at Prunella. The place was busy so we sat at the bar. Derek and Conor were behind the bar and I have to say both of them make a wicked espresso martini. The pepperoni pizza and the rigatoni were definitely on point. Delicious food, awesome drink and the best service I've had in a Philly restaurant yet. This is definitely a favorite I plan on visiting again. And serious props to Derek and Conor. You guys were awesome. *Update* We went back a second time because that pizza was haunting me. Sat at the bar again and Cate was our bartender. Where do you find these amazing bartenders. She was wonderful and also makes a wicked espresso martini. Loved the spicy Caesar salad and the baby artichokes. Again a splendid evening.
This was one of the best meals I have had in Philly. Holy crap! The food the ambiance and especially the service were all stunning. The whole experience was a great for a calm yet celebratory night. Can’t recommend this place enough!!! The drinks were better than any I’ve had in the area.
Wonderful pizza, friendly staff and quick service. IMO Barbuzzo has better pizza. Barbozzo's toppings go all the way to the edge, whereas Prunella has a quite thick edge w/o toppings. Preferred Barbuzzo's sauce slightly more.
My wife and I decided to take a day trip to Philadelphia today. We have not been to Philadelphia in over 20 years. So we had no clue where to go. We decided to take a chance with Prunella. Staff was over the top accommodating, Kim, the GM was amazing. From the service to the food, everything was excellent. The Pizza was cooked to perfection, the Octopus salad although very small was excellent.
Did a takeout order and pizza was excellent. The restaurant itself is super small and cocktail tables only just keep in mind if visiting.
From the very first moment when we’ve entered the restaurant and were greeted by a very nice and welcoming host, thru a delicious dinner, to the very nice service provided by Justin, everything was great. The portions were not huge, the prices were right, so we’ve had a chance to try few different items from the menu. Next time I visit Philly I’ll be back.
