First time back in a while due to the shootings in this area and we won’t be back. The food was ok (duck ragu) but the service was awful.

I was staying with friends in the area who said this was some of the best Italian in the capital—and it did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is very charming, with a cozy, old New York Italian feel: plenty of grandma-style clutter on the walls and romantic, dim lighting. Our servers were friendly, attentive, and never rushed us. They poured our wine professionally and were helpful when answering questions. We started with the meatballs and the grilled octopus. Both appetizers were well sized but not huge, just enough fo... read more
