   Core de Roma has been our favorite Italian restaurant in the Philadelphia area since we discovered their original location in West Chester 8 years ago. We were sad when they had to close their West Chester location! Now that they’re in Belmont Hills they’re a little harder to get to but SO worth the trip. Gigi and Judy run a fantastic restaurant that feels like a family visit to Rome every time we go! The value and the authenticity can’t be beat. Gigi’s recipes are authentic Roman Italian recipes the way Italian food was meant to be enjoyed. Judy makes most of the desserts herself and they’re absolutely worth saving room for! HIGHLY recommended. Try the suppli, the penne vodka, the core de Roma salad and don’t skip on Judy’s cannolis! Go and discover this hidden gem!

   Good local place with good quality food. My only suggestion is look for a better source of bread. My wife’s entree was very good .

   Best traditional family style food in the area hands down. Definitely a hidden gem. Waitress was fantastic as well.

   Four of us dined on Friday . Three of the four meals , namely chicken Marsala, mussels marinara & chicken core de Roma in a blush sauce were excellent. The chicken Milanese was good but was basically a crusty chicken breast with arugula that was & tender but with a small portion of sauce, we needed to ask for more sauce ….. the actual meal did not match the description on the menu so it was slightly disappointing Appetizers of fried calamari & burrata with fig were excellent as was the tartufo that we had for dessert . Wait staff were friendly & attentive. I especially like the bread which seems home made & the dipping sauce with the cannoli beans but we had to ask for this & was not automatically placed on the table.
