Behrad EatsJanuary 5, 2017Looking for a heart dish? Look no further than the spectacular Wild Boar Tagliatelle made with san marzano tomato, english peas, oyster mushrooms.
- Behrad EatsJanuary 5, 2017Beautifully plated and equally delicious Black Gnocchi with lobster cream, roasted peppers, Andouille sausage, & rock shrimp is a great starter!
- Behrad EatsJanuary 5, 2017The Arancini with sundried tomatoes, mozzarella, sweet sausage, & smoked garlic aioli are just what you're looking for!
Gabriela RodriguezAugust 25, 2017This was an amazing place. Bill, our waiter was the best!!!! He recommended the lobster with squid ink pasta, and I was in awe. The best squid pasta I've ever had. Would definitely recommend this!
Bitches Who BrunchJanuary 11, 2014The Bitches Say: A+. Comfortable and cozy, yet upscale, with house-made Italian pastas, heavenly carbs, great menu options, and impeccable service. Winner of the Best Mom and Pop Brunch Award of 2013!
Aroob Q.April 20, 2014The fettuccine with Swiss chard and cherry tomatoes tastes great! The ambiance is amazing with a feel of home. Staff is definitely nice and experienced.
James LeeJuly 2, 2015When the lamb gnocchi is on the menu, GET IT! They're not always consistent with how well the meat is done, but nonetheless its worth the risk.- David AllenJuly 13, 2013Get the black gnocchi as an appetizer and the Gay Wedding as a cocktail. Fantastic. Everything, including the service, was tremendous - great way to end a long week.
Angela LansburyJune 10, 2013A VIP croaked at dinner, landing face first in a plate of lasagna! The police brought in Dito for questioning, but I deduced that the murderer was actually a rival restaurateur on 17th Street.
Rudy TelsonMay 27, 2013If you get off late and need a few plus a relaxing spot this is the place! The bartender is nice and knows how to make a drink!
Bridget GaelAugust 8, 2019Great Italian food and half priced wine nights— we loved the pastas, fried Brussels sprouts & salmon
Jasmine ChanApril 24, 2013Love this place. Grab a drink in the cute downstairs bar and head out to them patio for dinner.
Anne HenochowiczApril 27, 2016Fig and caramelized onion pasta is shaped like candy in wrappers, but isn't too sweet. Set off by goat cheese sauce and olive oil.
Food was good although a little small on the serving size. Plan on getting a few courses if you are hungry. Front window seat on second floor was nice and cozy. Service was good. Ran out of tea.- FlorianaSeptember 12, 2013All bottles of wine are 1/2 price Sunday and Wednesday evenings, open-close!
- FlorianaJanuary 15, 2014Join us for DC Restaurant Week! Enjoy our special $35 dinner available January 13th-19th.
Darcy DNovember 5, 2012If you like tuna, definitely start with the tartare. I loved the gnocchi with wild roasted boar.
Ann BroughMarch 4, 2012Black gnocchi appetizer is delightfully spicy and filet mignon tortellini decadent and delicious.
Dion PrivettFebruary 16, 2011The arugula salad is to die for! As well as the parsley pesto that accompanies the bread. Service was A+ as well.
Alcione StürmerMarch 23, 2013Make a reservation for dinner. Pretty busy. Nice, but small, bar downstairs. Delicious food.
Brad E.September 11, 2011All pasta is made in house and menu changes depending on season and what local market has to offer.
Sam HJanuary 12, 2015Verrry pricey for somewhat mediocre Italian food. I could barely taste the truffle oil in the risotto I had gotten
The food is amazing and the service impeccable. If you like a manhattan, try the Moma.
Liza RyabovaApril 3, 2013Strange vibrations of the building are disturbing. It seems like there is an endless train under the earth.
- Aiden KirchnerSeptember 13, 2011Italian with a side of complaintsDespite its location and cheery atmosphere, the service does not come with a smile and many think the food tends to be overpriced.
The food !!! Best in the business !!! And the bathrooms...... Really ??? Outstanding!!!
