Burrata - Italian restaurant in Philadelphia - 1247 S 13th St, USA

Took my girlfriend out for date night and decided to try a new place. Upon arriving they were able to accommodate seating although we didn’t make reservations. We chose the mussels as an appetizer, we were served bread within 5 minutes of being seated and the oil spread was divine, the mussels were delicious, the fettuccine was good, the chicken Milanese was great, the limoncello cake and cannoli were to die for. All in all good dining experience, would visit again.

We enjoyed a fabulous Mother's Day dinner here. We savored and devoured our 3 courses. My crabcake appetizer was the best crabcake I've ever eaten (over 4 decades). We shared our dishes marvelling at how beautiful and scrumptious everything was, especially the chocolate mousse cake and lobster ravioli. Their portion sizes were perfect. The service was friendly and they had impeccable timing, clearing our plates quickly. The next course appeared a minute or 2 later. We ate inside which has a cozy atmosphere. Here you can watch the staff navigate in their tiny kitchen. It was easy to make an online reservation, and there is also outside seating which overlooks Columbus Park. We look forward to bringing friends and family here in the future.

My fiancé and I came here on a friend’s recommendation, and we are so grateful. We went with what was on the specials and highly recommend it. Very friendly service and nice atmosphere and great neighborhood. We went for a little walk in the park to digest our dinner a bit, really lovely way to end my birthday.

We selected Burrata based on ratings and were not disappointed. Everything about the place feels authentic. We were greeted at the door and the service was first class. They were attentive but didn't rush us. It's BYOB and there is a liquor store nearby. We were a party of 7 and everyone loved their meals, including the vegan! The burrata appetizer was excellent. The homemade gnocchi was the best I've ever had.

Burrata is a quaint and cozy BYOB restaurant located in a quite but lively neighborhood tucked away in south Philly. We had such an amazing dinner with our parents here! Reservations are suggested. There wasn’t an empty seat in the house all night and now we know why! For starters… Fresh sesame bread was served with an olive oil and vinegar combination. Our family started with 3 appetizers. The beet and arugula salad, burrata decorated with roasted bell peppers and a fig balsamic glaze, and the breaded and baked smoked Gouda special. All three were perfectly prepared and presented. The friendly and knowledgeable wait staff kept our water glasses full and we never had to wait to have our table cleared. Place settings were refreshed after each course. We decided to try 4 different entrees for the main course. The truffle mushroom gnocchi was the best gnocchi we’ve ever had! It melted in your mouth. The lobster and crab raviolis were bursting with savory flavors. The rigatoni was so fresh and delicious. Each bite, I was silently whispering “wow” to myself. And last, but certainly not least, the fettuccine with shrimp and a light cream sauce! It’s a simple yet elegantly classic dish here. We highly recommend everything we had. For dessert, we tried the limoncello cake with a light semi-sweet whipped icing topped with black raspberry drizzle. We also had the pistachio ice cream. 3 scoops was enough to share between 4 people. Both desserts were the perfect way to end the evening! Date night, first date, family night, or girls night out? We highly recommend making reservations with Burrata today!

If you haven’t been to Burrata yet, you’re missing out. The menu has something for every type of person. They also have specials that you may not see on the menu. Although the restaurant was small, the atmosphere was nice and it really didn’t feel cramped at all. Antonio, our server, did an excellent job from start to end. Always made sure the table was clean as well as getting new plates and utensils after the appetizer. Antonio was very knowledgeable about the menu and was able to answer any questions I had. The prices are extremely reasonable and the food is beyond delicious (kudos to the cooks). I would easily suggest this place to anyone for a date night or just something casual.

Fantastic neighborhood gem. Food was flavorful, cozy, inviting, and fun. Not fussy or arrogant, but cooked with love, execution, and straight from the heart. My favorite was the Burrata dish, a cold cheese dish with the seductively sumptuous balsamic glaze and the best thin-sliced prosciutto I ever had (thankfully not too salty as it was packed with flavor). The bread was fantastic for mopping up the rich tomato based seafood app. My wife and I loved the seafood spaghetti dish, although the dark brown (think buckwheat) spaghetti surprised us at first. The rich white wine broth and clams were fantastic, but the noodles were perplexing and intriguing (and fantastic!). The whole wheat made it seem like it might be tough but it was smooth and chewy, while still hearty. And yet it almost felt too soft and about melt, although there was a firm elasticity to it! The scallops risotto was rich and decadent. Temp was good. The service was good, the outdoor ambience was wonderful, the napkin's blue-gray hue resonated with my wife, and the plates were gorgeous. Overall, it was excellent and worthy of going back and recommending to friends and family. The meal may not have been technically flawless (the delicious octopus could stand to be grilled or cooked a tad longer), but it was still perfectly authentic, heartfelt, and admirably executed. It straddled the fine line between elevated/elegant and homey. It accomplished what it set out to do and delivered on what one would expect! We live outside the city, so we won't be able to visit often, which may be good, because this is such a fine neighborhood establishment—if I lived nearby, I'd definitely be in danger of blowing my monthly dining budget!

My partner and I went here last night around 7:30 pm with a dinner reservation. It was a full house and we were greeted by this very kind young woman. We requested an outside table however she did advise us it was going to be an additional 10 minute wait but if we wished she can accommodate us inside. We agreed to eat inside and it’s very cozy with a lovely atmosphere. I must say my partner and myself greatly enjoyed ourselves! All of the food was great! I look forward to returning.
