A Mano

Philadelphia
Italian Restaurant
$$$$

This cash-only corner BYOB in Fairmount serves house-made pastas and other Italian fare curated into minimalist, three-course menus. Beautiful wooden tables, a long banquette, and an open kitchen give A Mano a modern feel, and a mostly local crowd adds a sense of familiarity to the ambience. The menu is hyper-seasonal, tending to draw from Northern Italy in the winter and Southern Italy when it gets warmer.

Available for Reservations

Chef and restaurateur Townsend Wentz’s charming hideaway, A Mano, draws diners with a small but mighty menu of antipasti, primi, and secondi courses (plus a BYOB policy). The eatery delves into seasonal fare inspired by different regions of Italy, all grounded in the art of being made a mano—or by hand. In addition to a la carte menu items like burrata, scallop crudo, and braised pork shank, the four-course Abbondanza menu is served family-style for $65 per person.
