Corio

I have been here three times and it is outstanding. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the food is terrific. I've had the margherita pizza, peppers, artichoke, gemelli, and focaccia. All are highly recommended. If this place was any closer to my apartment, I'd have a serious weight problem. :)

Delightful new spot! The service was friendly and efficient, and everything was very delicious with generous portions. Will be back!

Fabulous pizza, pasta, and service in a beautiful space! Can’t wait to come back.

I came here on a whim for wine and pizza and it did not disappoint! Not only was everything delicious but service was friendly and the space itself is beautiful. The restaurant is open and bright-great vibes and good food. A welcome addition to University City. I’ll definitely be back!

Very good pizza, flavorful pasta and nice ambience. I wish the pasta was a little more cooked, but other than that great place! They were also accommodating to our dietary preferences.

We had such a great meal at Corio. From the food to drinks to service, everything was wonderful. We loved the margarita pizza—fab sauce and crust was perfect. The artichoke was so yummy and the pasta was flavorful and just perfect. Service was on point, we’ll definitely be back to try more!

My friend and I came for dinner last night and absolutely loved it! First off, the place itself is lovely and bright, with a great bar and ambiance. There's plenty of parking in the area, which is huge. The service was top notch, from the hostess to the server, and our food and drinks were delicious. It does currently have a limited menu, however, I'll take a well-executed limited menu over a so-so large menu any day. The pricing is on par for the area, but the experience makes it worth every penny. Overall, I highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Great twists on traditional pizza and pasta dishes. Very cool space. Laid back but still high quality. So glad to see this place come to the neighborhood.

The interior of this place is very cute. Gives a modern cafe vibe but still classy. Love it! The waitress was awesome and so were the rest of the staff. We ordered the pizza by mistake thinking it was a pasta dish and they were able to change it. They also give us a piece to try. Very appreciated for what they did. Wings: 5/5 downright one of my favorite. Crispy and very well flavored. It can be a bit spicy for some people. I would compare the spice to be closer to a habanero. It was sweet and spicy; burst full of flavor. A must try. Short Rib Sandwich: 5/5 The meat cooked very well and well seasoned. Love the salsa verde and the sauce. It had the right amount of tangy bite to keep you eating more. Only thing would be that it gets pretty messy. Gemelli: 4/5 cooked to a perfect Al dente. Creamy and delicious. Spicy Bolognese Pizza: 4/5 You gotta eat this as soon as it comes out. Love the crust. Gives you a thin pizza crispiness. The flavors are great and works well. I love it. Only thing would be that it was pretty oily. Might be a turn off for the people that don't like too much oil. Still a great pizza. Overall: Amazing place despite a small lunch menu. There is only one pasta on the lunch menu which is the Gemelli. The rest are pizza just to be warned. I wish they had more pasta options on the lunch menu. Overall you can't go wrong with the food here. It's great!

While I totally appreciate that this spot is new, I do think it has some growing pains to go through before realizing its identity. The menu itself has a few things that could be interesting. We started with the Caesar: there was a bit of a paucity of dressing, the lettuce wedge was a bit hard to eat, and while I fully recognize that Caesar dressing has anchovies in it I am not a fan of serving actual anchovies on top of the salad as I don't feel like it adds anything and if anything detracts from the experience. Spicy bolognese pizza was fine, nothing terribly special and crust could be a bit firmer as the pizza itself was a bit floppy. The bucatini with crab was a total miss, which was disappointing. The sauce totally overpowered any opportunity to taste what (little?) crab there was. The pricing is a bit on the higher end, which could be fine if the food were a bit more elevated. But what I think needs the most work is the overall personality of the restaurant. Everyone was nice enough. But it felt like I was in a hotel lobby the whole time in terms of decor, interactions, etc., and I feel that they would benefit from a bit more personality.

Nice easy walk while visiting the Penn campus. Pizza was very good (margherita and spicy sausage) service was quick and courteous.

Great food, service and space! A wonderful addition to the area!! We can't wait to go back again!

Wonderful experience overall. We were seated promptly. Staff was attentive and courteous. Summer tomato pizza was delicious. Atmosphere was lively without being overly loud.
