"West Passyunk Ave’s Stina makes consistent, reasonably priced Mediterranean food, but it's also just a fun place to hang out. The BYOB feels like a small dinner party in a friend’s apartment since everyone walking in is carrying their favorite bottle of wine. Although this is technically a pizzeria, almost everything else coming out of Stina’s wood-burning oven works better than their pies. Go for an enormous, boat-shaped pide. Stina makes three different kinds, and while they’re all incredible, the one filled with merguez, mozzarella, and tabbouleh is the one we’d take home to meet our parents." - alison kessler, candis mclean
