20 Classic Restaurants In Philly
"Ralph's is another of the many traditional Italian restaurants people flock to for giant portions of chicken parm and marinated red peppers with anchovies. Open since 1900, it’s always full of tourists taking pictures of the incredible second-floor dining room. Frankly, the food is lackluster, but Ralph’s isn’t a classic because it has great gravy. It's a classic because the floor has original tiles, the servers are welcoming (they've seen everything), the house wine is cheap, and sometimes it just feels good to eat a mountain of mediocre spaghetti." - alison kessler, candis mclean
