    The generous portion of broiled swordfish was slightly overcooked and definitely overseasoned- tasty but just too much. The linguine side dish had an odd flavored red sauce that additional Parmesan couldn’t conquer. Drinks: for some reason all the liquor had to be infused so getting a vodka martini etc was impossible. On the other hand, my seatmate had the signature black ink aglio oleo and “licked the plate clean”.

    Unbelievably, the risotto with my seared tuna was cold. So out of character for DC in my experience so very disappointing. Everyone has a bad night, I guess...

    Had Thanksgiving dinner here. Service and ambience were great. But food was not up to par. Clam chowder was on the sweeter side, still good. Chilean sea bass and scalloped for entrees were both overcooked.

    Excellent selection of seafood, salads and pastas. Service was efficient but not intrusive. Oysters were some of the freshest and best I have had in a long time. Entrees were delicious if a little minimal in portion for the price.

    Terrific food. The fried calamari and lobster fra diavolo were ao delicious. I realized that the waitress didn’t provide us with any complimentary bread, which would be a great addition to the pasta. Only found it after seeing other tables had the bread. This branch accepts credit cards so it’s convenient. Overall it was a great experience.

    Fabulous food! Especially the Black Ink Aglio Olio pasta. Rave appetizer reviews at our table for the octopus with beans and the fried calamari, which was perfectly encrusted with a LIGHT batter. We’ll be back!

    Great food. Kids liked it too. Very large portions could easily split one great homemade pasta.
