Villa di Roma is consistently winning accolades for its meatballs, and it’s easy to figure out why. Since 1963, this family-owned, cash-only South Philly restaurant has been serving up classic Italian fare like shrimp scampi, spaghetti with oil and garlic and baked rigatoni. After you top off your meal with a bowl of spumoni, grab a container of Villa di Roma’s classic house-made marinara sauce to take home.
