Floriana offers a lot more than just "pasta" - although their pasta in excellent. They offer generous portions , good wine, and interesting cocktails. We weren't rushed at all and they let us sit and talk. The only drawbacks were related to the restaurant space. It's in a townhouse, so there isn't much room between and around the tables and the restrooms were up a steep flight of stairs, where there is another dining space. It would be hard for people with limited mobility to get into the restaurant and enjoy themselves.

The experience was marred only by a loud table in the window that dominated the room. Food and service were excellent.

The atmosphere and food were outstanding. Once it got busy our table got sort of forgotten. But overall I would recommend this restaurant! Especially if you tell them it’s a special occasion 😊

We arrived early for our reservation, so we had a drink at the bar downstairs. Honestly, I could have sat there all night. It was such a homey atmosphere -- the woman tending bar made everybody feel so comfortable, and it seemed like she personally knew everybody who walked in (including us, though we'd never been there before). She checked for us if we could go to the dining room early, which was nice of her. Anyway, Floriana was just great. We shared the charcuterie board (Salumi & Formaggio) which was just amazing -- don't miss it! Our pastas (agnolotti and gnocchi) were outstanding. But I'd order the Salumi & Formaggio appetizer for myself as my entree in the future, it was that good. Don't miss.

Floriana's is our go to Italian restaurant in DC. Been there many many times and still going back. At least one person gets the lasagna every time we go (we've all had it at some point) and anyone who doesn't get it kind of regrets it just a little haha. The bread and dip they start you with is kind of like a pesto and is excellent. Cocktails are very good and authentic. They have a nice selection of wines and Sundays have half price bottles. Inside is very charming. And when it's nice out, the outside dining is great. Loved ending the meal with their delicious tiramisu!

I loved the butternut and crab pasta. Absolutely delicious. Also, they allow you to split your meal in half, so you can try both pastas.

This is a charming neighborhood place with an intimate vibe. Although the menu is not that extensive, the food is excellent. The pastas are a great value. The wine list is hefty, but that seems to be the case everywhere these days.

Floriana was a wonderful experience to celebrate my grandmothers 82nd birthday. Our waiter was professional, helpful and attentive. The staff even took the time to write her a hand written birthday card which really meant a lot to her. Our food was delicious. Highly recommend !
