Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Until the end of time, we would have bypassed Uva, and its neon violet signage, if dear friends had not heartily recommended the place. Distinguishing Uva from typical upscale suburban restaurants is its downtown vibe including exuberant artwork, a grand piano as a focal point, romantic lighting and a superior waitstaff. An additional bonus: Uva has live (and not cheesy) entertainment! A further bonus: It's BYO!! The noteworthy atmospherics were an accurate harbinger of the excellent cuisine to come. We were first presented with a saucer of a lovely, fruity olive oil surrounding an island of roasted garlic and accompanied by a basket of chewy bread. Nice hello! Mr. M's Caesar salad was composed in a free-form vessel made from very thin bread dough. It was exquisite to view and quite delicious to eat. Mr. M's only critique was that the dressing would have been enhanced with a smudge more anchovy. My arugula salad was huge (seemingly the equivalent of an entire plastic tub of same). It was lightly dressed in a lemon-based vinaigrette. Delish. Mr. M ordered the special aged, prime-grade ribeye, which was accompanied by thick-stemmed asparagus spears and golden roasted fingerling potatoes. An exquisite mushroom Madeira sauce finished the dish. "Brilliant," proclaimed my favorite dinner companion. He was still talking about the Madeira sauce two days later. My mussels in a herbaceous white wine sauce and served atop linguine were delicious. The sauce was perfectly-balanced and flavorful. My only quibble with the dish is that the mussels were puny compared to those at Capone's. We shall return to Uva with exquisite wine to complement its exquisite food.

Beautiful, Passionate, and Delightful, yes I am describing my fiancée who was my date for this Valentines Dinner, but I am also describing the food which we most certainly enjoyed every bite of. The appetizer was spectacular. Calamari was crispy and firm, and had a nice Aoli Sauce which complimented the light battering. So much better than the standard run of the mill marinara you get at every other restaurant. The Chilean Sea Bass was beautiful, tasty, and melted in her mouth. Vegetables perfectly cooked. Presentation was gorgeous. I enjoyed the "special", which was the Crab/Pear Ravioli, topped with truffles, sun-dried tomatoes, baby asparagus, and a mesmerizing Sherry cream sauce.

This would be 3.5 stars if I had the option. Uva did a fantastic job hosting a party of 80 people, of which I was a guest, last weekend. The appetizers were above par, specifically the calamari, which had fried banana peppers amidst the calamari. It was something I had never had and loved it. The antipasto was also delicious. A pasta course consisting of a penne a la vodka and a Gorgonzola gnocchi was also top notch. The main course was really where I'd dock the points. The seabass and salmon were really pretty so-so and flavorless. But, as mentioned, it was a party of 80 and I'm sure had we been in a smaller party, this course would've been better. The final issue I had was with the service. Again, we were in a large party, but we were among only 2-3 couples with a small child. The staff did not accommodate to our son at all. We had to manually refill his water cup from our glasses and hunt down the waiter to see if there was a kids menu. Usually it's unspoken that when ordered, kid meals should come right out. They waited until everyone was served (maybe 45 mins later?) which left us with a tired, hungry and grumpy toddler. It was annoying and I wish they'd taken better care of us. All said, I would try UVA again and look forward to sampling other items of their menu!

My fiancee and I were looking for a new BYOB to try out on Valentine's Day, and figured we would try out Uva due to the high praise it received on Yelp and OpenTable. Normally I don't feel too inclined to write reviews, but since my experience was far from five stars I figured I'd share. We should have turned around and went home right from the start when we walked into the restaurant and had to wait at least three minutes for the two hostesses to stop bickering about table placement before being seated. I assume (or hope) they were a mother and daughter by the way they were fighting and whining, but either way it was an unpleasant start to our evening. It looked like everyone at the restaurant had brought wine or champagne along with them for the evening, but no ice buckets were available for people who wanted their wine/champagne chilled. Our champagne was warm by the time our meal came. The waiter was very friendly but mostly absent for the evening. We had an issue with one of the appetizers we ordered (our error, not the waiter's), but could not resolve the issue to order something else because he did not return to our table until we had completed our entrees over 20 minutes later, despite another member of the wait staff telling him that we were looking for him. The restaurant seemed understaffed and possibly unprepared for the Valentine's Day crowd. He removed the appetizer from our bill without hesitation when we finally got a chance to talk to him about it, which was a saving grace for the whole ordeal. Ultimately, my fiancee and I would have been perfectly content with the restaurant's other issues if the food was good, but it wasn't really all that special. We ordered their pasta special as an appetizer (ground veal and mozzarella rolled in thin pasta in a blush sauce) that was unimpressive. I ordered lobster ravioli which had the same blush sauce, bland ravioli, and two overcooked shrimp. My fiancee ordered crab and shrimp risotto, which was decent but only in comparison to everything else we ordered. Knowing that we wouldn't be able to go elsewhere for a nice dessert on Valentine's Day due to crowds and reservations, we decided to stick around against our better judgment. I ordered the cannoli which was actually great (even though a single cannoli set me back $7.50), and my fiancee ordered a mixed berry cobbler which was nothing beyond what we could have purchased frozen from Trader Joes and microwaved at home. Next time, we'll stick with Bocelli for our Italian BYOB dining needs out in the Philly suburbs.

The food was good. However they refused to honor gift certificate. You can also hear the manager talking to his associate in the kitchen area with F words. not so great for his business. We won't go back there again

We have eaten at Uva several times, & enjoyed the food & atmosphere. However, the service seems to get worse with each visit.had dinner Sunday evening around 6:30, Not crowded at all. After being advised of the special's, the waiter disappeared, we had to ask the hostess to locate him to place our order. When dinner was served He again disappeared, We had no knives, water glasses were empty, No one asked if we needed anything. Not a very pleasant meal. Won't be back.

Great place. Love the appetizers especially the fried calamari. The salads and pasta are my choices. Guests i was with had the fish and seemed to like. The live piano is a plus.

Stopped in for lunch to check out this new Italian restaurant in Richboro to check it out for a dinner meeting next week. The place is very nice, almost too fancy. We almost didn't go in because we couldn't tell if they were open for lunch. I decided to check it out. The were open and we thought it was almost too upscale for us. I decided we would check it out anyway. Don't let this intimidate you. This is a BYOB establishment. The staff was great. The lunch menu items were priced in the $8-15 range. The dinner menu was $15-30 range. Not bad. Lunch for two came to $25. It was well worth the stop. The food was very fresh and very well prepared. Service was prompt and attentive. Both dishes and the soup were delicious and well prepared. Our group will be back for dinner next week with high expectations. This place is definitely work checking out.

Where do I begin? There were eight of us that went to UVA on a busy Saturday night and not one disappointing moment occurred. The appetizers were incredible; antipasto consisted of olives, cheese, calamari ( which can be ordered not spicy at all), etc. The waiter was so accommodating and thorough. I tasted salmon, sea bass, prime rib, mussels which were so tasty and melted in your mouth good! The desserts were succulent with the best tiramisu I ever had! The entertainment was excellent. The singer was incredible. We all cannot wait to go back!

A solid 3.5. App was beet shrimp salad. Very very good. But I LOVE beets. Husband was ok with it. He had blackened sea bass was "very good" and tasted better than our favorite La Stalla. I had the the chicken Marsala. It was what one would expect. Nothing great but not bad either. Nothing to stand out of the Italian crowd. All in all, pretty decent

We live right down the street and my husband and I really enjoy going here either alone or with friends. The food is always excellent and the service is good. It's a great having such a nice restaurant so close to home. My only complaint is the tables are so close together. You feel like you are sitting on your neighbors lap. Also, When the piano player sings you can not talk because he is so loud. Other then that, I love this place. We will definitely go back.

Tonight we were driving through Richboro and decided to try a new place. I bookmarked UVA and I am glad I did. We came in on Mother's Day without a reservation, so we expected to be turned away. To our surprise the hostess seated us almost immediately outside on the tree lined patio. The weather was beautiful and the patio had tables with umbrellas to keep the sun off of the patrons. A waitress took our drink order quickly and brought us some bread and a roasted red pepper dip that was out of this world. Our waiter came over and introduced himself and told us the specials, which all sounded delicious. I ordered the Chicken Parmesan and my wife ordered the TriColored Tortellini in a pesto sauce. We also split a Cesar salad. The food came out quickly and was timed well so we didn't feel rushed. We both really enjoyed the entrees so much that we didn't leave room for dessert. I look forward to going back and trying additional dishes. Inside they had a piano player performing. The only suggestion I have for the restaurant is to pipe the live music out to the patio.

Elegant Italian BYOB with charming service and delicious food. We particularly enjoy their outside dining area. Dining room is elegant and remarkably quiet compared to many other BYOB's. Perhaps the refined service and decor discourages raucous behavior. My favorite dish is the gnocchi with ground veal. Menu is varied and everything we've tried was very good. Easily the best restaurant in Richboro, despite sharing a strip mall with Subway and Radio Shack.

Came here for a Friday night dinner and we chose to sit outside. The atmosphere was awesome and if we didnt know 20 people that were sitting around us, it would of been even better. For appetizers we had arugula salad, seafood pasta and Langostino. We liked our apps. For entree we had steak, Bronzino and crab meat. My friends steak came out medium when he asked for medium rare... They instantly fixed it and brought him a new steak. The fish was awesome! My girlfriend and her friend ordered a huge 3 pound t-bone it looked like half a cow was dropped on the table. They took the bone off by the table and cut it up. Great steak! Great Fish! Great Service! I look forward to coming back to this BYOB.

Very good BYOB Italian. Anti pasta platter was excellent. The Caesar salad was excellent. It was served in a toasted bread bowl. Seafood Risoto and Eggplant Parm were very tasty. We would visit again!

I would probably give 3.5 stars if available. Food and ambiance very good. Service awful. We came on Saturday with a large party of 18. My father preordered a bunch of appetizers. It took 40 minutes for them to come out. What was the point of preordering in advance. Food was superb. Everything was tasty and cooked to perfection. Again, service was pretty bad all night. From getting extra bottles of water to other requests, we had to wait for a long time. In the beginning the place was empty too so not sure why there were no servers to assist.

This cozy BYOB in Richboro does not disappoint. We had a bottle of the Phillies wine, (which was a full bodied red wine. Fruity on the nose, but dry - not too dry, extremely drinkable, delicious and perfect compliment to an Italian dinner). We both ordered pasta fagoli soup as a starter. It was full of beans, veggies and pasta very fresh. I ordered the clams w/linguine in a red sauce. My man ordered chicken parm w/whole wheat penne. The linguini and clams were delicious but I wish I had more sauce. I usually enjoy the extra sauce filled with the broth from the clams and garlic when I order this dish, however there was no extra sauce left in the bowl when I finished. Not to say that the pasta was dry, but I was hoping on that little extra to sop up with some bread. The chicken parm was tender, nicely breaded and baked perfectly with sauce and mozzarella. Chicken parm is my mans favorite, so it passed his taste test and he cleaned the plate. We frequent the best Italian in Philly, so he has high standards for chicken parm. Well done We ordered dessert only because they all looked so good!! A tray of homemade desserts were brought out, each better than the next. We ordered the tiramisu and it was delicious. Not as much coffee liquor flavor as I usually like in a tiramisu, but still very good. We shared the very generous piece and thank goodness we did because we were stuffed before it was delivered to the table. Beautifully plated, with extra vanilla and chocolate sauce decorating the plate. Whipped cream and slice of fresh strawberry to top it off. ***Tip - visit this restaurant on a weekend evening for dinner and I hope Sal, the owner is present. Order dessert and you will not be disappointed. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and fantastic dinner!
