The Sena family tradition of culinary excellence dates back to early 1947 when Carlo “Papa” Sena began to cook in postwar Naples. The family carried this experience across the Atlantic and opened La Famiglia in 1976 in the shell of a Colonial tea warehouse. Today, La Famiglia is the finest Italian restaurant in Philadelphia and a significant landmark in the city’s vibrant restaurant scene. We blend an old-world-inspired menu, an exquisite wine list, and flawless service to create the most romantic and memorable dining experience in Philadelphia. We boast private wine cellar dining, and a stunning banquet room, including a dance floor, for weddings or wedding receptions, office parties, or reunions. If you wish, you can plan a one-of-a-kind evening for you and your guests in one of our secluded private rooms – perfect for any special event or family gathering.
