    I understand why this place is popular and packed - and challenging to get a reservation for on short notice. The food was absolutely outstanding (truly some of the best Italian food ever) and the portion sizes were generous. The pasta was fresh, the sauces on our dishes were done to perfection - and the service was attentive, professional and generally marvelous. The decor was, to us, overwhelmingly overdone and distracting, and actually subtracted from the experience. They must have just finished decorating for Easter and there were baskets hanging from the ceiling with stuffed bunnies everywhere, garish purple lights that cast a weird and unappetizing haze over the restaurant, glittery decorations everywhere. That might have been kind of fun and kitschy but the extremely narrow aisles between tables (I felt bad for the wait staff having to navigate that!) contributed to a feeling of an almost claustrophobic-like atmosphere. Also, the noise level made conversation with my dining partner difficult. We both had to take our phones out to use the flashlight to read our menus - the pink/purple/fuschia Easter-themed lighting made it very hard to see the menus. We don't regret trying out this place - and truly, the food and service were as good as they come - but anyone looking for a relaxing dining experience where they can have intimate conversation without raising their voice to be heard may be a little disappointed.

    Coming from the NJ/NY area and being of Italian heritage, I am a little picky about my Italian food. So spending a weekend in DC I decided to look for as authentic of an Italian restaurant as I could. Well, I found one. Filomena was outstanding. Old school, authentic but most importantly delicious. Wait staff was well trained, high quality and professional. Everything was homemade and authentic. Veal chop parmigiano was one of the best I’ve had. And the final chef’s kiss was the complimentary sambuca or amaretto after dinner. A touch of Italy for sure.

    Always a fun and great experience here. Just have to share the food and order less than you think.

    The restaurant has mediocre food and a terrible ambiance. There so many better Italian options in the city.

    Food was good. Good desserts. Fun atmosphere decorated for Easter. Our waiter in particular wasn’t very attentive or friendly. Almost seemed as if he would rather be doing anything else besides serving people. Nice restaurant, but be sure to get reservations early when you know you’re coming.

    The food is delicious and the portions are enough to share ( unless you eat a lot 😉 ). Our server was super friendly and attentive.

    La experiencia fue genial, el lugar fabuloso, además de ser un magnífico restaurante italiano podemos decir que es parte de la historia de Washington, en donde muchos personajes han disfrutado de sus diversos platillos. En mi recomendación sugiero que el trato al cliente debe de ser poco más serio y no de tanta confianza, pues puede llegar a ser incómodo, además de que el servicio es poco lento, pero el ambiente tan especial y los platillos tan exquisitos hacen definitivamente la diferencia.
