16 Classic Restaurants Every Philadelphian Must Try

"As the story goes, Ralph's originally opened in 1900 at 9th and Montrose before the Dispigno family made the short move to their current location in 1915. The restaurant remains in the family to this day, serving red gravy Italian American staples that have long been the backbone of the Italian Market neighborhood." - Eater Staff, Sarah Maiellano
