Filomena does not disappoint! Always perfectly cooked pasta, chicken and seafood. The place is already decorated for Christmas which makes it quite an experience with a polar bear dressed in his best and Santa not to mention all the streamers and stuff hanging from the ceiling. No place like it. Only downside is they fill the place up and it gets tight and warm down in that basement. A must for any trip to DC and Georgetown!

The pasta was excellent, truly superb. I had the ravioli which was one of the best Italian dishes I’ve ever had. The antipasta (arancino rather than arancini as indicated by the menu) tasted a little off—perhaps frozen?—and the dessert I had (panna cota) was presented a flan rather than a true panna cota.
