La Viola, Italian for "the viola," a string instrument known for producing a deep and sonorous sound, is one of Philadelphia's excellent bring-your-own-bottle establishments, serving a harmonious blend of moderately priced Italian fare. The restaurant, a tiny, single-room establishment located in Center City near Rittenhouse Square and the theater district, offers a unique and lively experience, where diners complement La Viola's flavorful selections with favorite wine choices toted through the BYO’s doors.
