Hidden gem tucked into a non-descript strip mall in Reston, VA. Prompt seating, attentive service, delicious food, fine-dining pricing but options at many price-points. Worth a try!

As always service was excellent. Arugula salad very tasty. My lobster ravioli was very good but a bit rich for me. I should have chosen something else, but that is on me and not because the dish wasn't very good. Wife had the Festa di Mare. They did offer the Cleopatra but that is a lot of food (we have had before and will have again - but not tonight). Also excellent. Finished off with Tiramisu which is one of the best if not the best around.
