Scarpetta - Philadelphia

The Essentials

The restaurant’s name is derived from the Italian expression, "fare la scarpetta," which means to savor a meal to the very last bite. In 2008, Scarpetta received a James Beard nomination for ‘Best New Restaurant in America’ as well as a coveted three-star review from the New York Times.

Since then, Scarpetta has expanded its footprint in all corners of the world, providing culinary integrity and excellent service to discerning customers globally.

The philosophy of Scarpetta’s kitchen is to create bold flavors by amplifying the essence of seasonal ingredients. Our signature pastas are made in-house daily and paired with the highest quality, locally-sourced ingredients. Scarpetta’s famous Spaghetti Tomato & Basil is nothing short of classic simplicity in both taste and preparation.
