Bastia draws its inspiration from the sun and shores of Corsica and Sardinia, offering a citrus- and seafood-forward menu with a focus on rustic simplicity. Located within the elegantly restored Anna & Bel Hotel in Fishtown, Philadelphia, the restaurant reflects a sense of coastal ease and warmth. The branding is intentionally understated—featuring a hand-drawn typeface, complementary illustrations, and generous white space—to mirror the unfussy, effortless charm of its culinary and cultural influences. In 2025, Bastia earned the top spot on Philadelphia Magazine’s list of “The 50 Best Restaurants in Philadelphia.”
