Best Bars And Lounges in Capitol Hill / First Hill

Barolo’s is one of my favorite restaurants and I love their lamb and cherry sauce. The atmosphere is cozy and the food is always amazing.

Food was fantastic but our server, Luke, was overworked and overlooked our table multiple times. Seemed to be more attentive to others. My mom ordered pasta and asked for a side of focaccia. Never came. Even after asking the runner, our server, and again our server who told us that it should be out any minute (even after about 20 minutes in between). The pizza and pasta was outstanding and my salmon burger was also great. Could have had a bit more flavor as the avocado was just that as well as really no seasoning on the salmon. Huge portions. Being a former server, Luke needed to have less tables. Lastly, my mom wanted a receipt, which apparently was pressed, but was never delivered from our server. She asked at the front to no avail. Overall, food was great but I would try a lunch rather than dinner time due to the amount of people and lack of servers.

The restaurant was probably experiencing a short staffed day. However, everyone was doing their best to make sure we were comfortable with the wait. The quality of the food was excellent and the service was great.

Excellent service and food. Cocktails were creative and the beer on tap was great. The tiger prawn risotto was a bit salty. Our service took it away and brought a new one which was just right. And he said I took off a couple of drinks from your menu. Will definitely go back to try other items. Only warning is the parking in the area. The small lot we parked at charges $25 plus tax. Find street parking if you can.

It was amazing. Wonderful bar, great food and drinks and delightful staff. We just loved it!
