Victor Cafe is one of the city’s oldest Italian restaurants and a South Philly institution that conjures memories of Lady and the Tramp and Rocky Balboa.
The charming eatery features red-checkered table cloths and serenading opera singers and offers a menu full of traditional Italian favorites and Old World classics along with modern versions and inspired creations of traditional Italian fare.
Signature dishes and daily specials include steamed Prince Edward Island mussels sautéed in a spicy marinara or white wine, lemon, butter and garlic, and veal saltimbocca with marsala, prosciutto, sage, and mushrooms over sticky risotto.
