Very welcoming staff, terrific service from all, especially our waiter Mike. Apps (meatballs), salad and entrees were great! I had the Bronzino, my wife had breaded veal cutlet. Both were very good. Fish was prepared perfectly. Veal was thin and flavorful. Because it was breaded I thought it called for a little marinara (or some other sauce) but still very good. Wine selection excellent. We will be back

Tamari was a fantastic server. She and all the staff were great and the food was outstanding. My wife and I were visiting Washington DC for the first time and this restaurant was so good we went back for a second visit.

Outdated premises and tight, uncomfortable seating. Good portion but oily good and expensive overall ($16 for a bottle of sparkling water and $17 for a scope of gelato). Service is very good. Overall not worth it…

The lobster risotto was awful. A few cold, very old and extremely small lobster cuts thrown on top of the risotto. For $50!!! No way. I asked the waitress to take it away and bring me some else. The pasta was good. Service nice.

My partner and I visited this restaurant for Valentine’s Day and tried their special four-course menu. While the service was attentive and the ambiance was decent, we were disappointed with the quality of the food. Unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations, especially given the high price point. Even at a lower cost, the overall quality wasn’t something we would return for. While others may have a different experience, we personally wouldn’t choose to dine here again.
