While Philadelphians can?t seem to stay off the negative lists these days (most overweight, angriest, most sweatsuits purchased), our restaurants can?t seem to stop getting praise from the listosphere.
In the latest such culinary win, two Old City Italian restaurants, La Famiglia Ristorante and Ristorante Panorama, have been recognized for having some of the best wine lists in the nation by OpenTable.com.
OpenTable, which lets diners book reservations online then review their dining experience by e-mail, compiled over 5 million reviews over the past year and decided that these two restaurants (which are about one block from each other on Front St) both possess wine lists that ?go beyond merely complimenting their dishes,? according to Open Table?s Chief Dining Officer.
Aside from having an award-level wine list, Ristorante Panorama?s Il Bar is in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the largest wine dispensing system on the entire planet. Pretty amazing, pretty tasty.
With so many Italian restaurants in the city and country, it?s pretty neat that two places within a block of each other both made the list. Can you say rivalry?
OpenTable?s complete list, which includes one other PA restaurant, can be found here.
La Famiglia Ristorante, 8 S. Front St, (215) 922-2803
