Gran Caffee L'Aquila is a newly opened restaurant in the Rittenhouse area of Philadelphia.
The focus is on Italian cuisine with a spin.  The menu is rather large and incorporates gelato into dishes.  A reigining Italian gelato champion chef creates very interesting and delicious gelato.  Highlights included oysters with mojito flavored gelato and the gelato with espresso.  The decor is quite fun and suits the mood of the restaurant.  The staff seems to be working through the kinks and many servers, waiters, and personnel were interested in how the experience was.  Definitely worth checking out again as there are many dishes to try.  Might be worth stopping in quickly for the coffee and gelato.  Time will tell what footprint this new opening makes on the Philadelphia food scene.
