Bethesda​のベストイタリア料理（コンテンポラリー）レストラン

I knew the portions would be large for 2-3 people but it was larger than expected! I went with a party of 3 and we all had leftovers. We got one appetizer, one pasta, and one shrimp dish. The complimentary bread was great too! Everything was very good! We ordered portobello parmigiana, penne alla vodka, and shrimp diavolo. Everything was very flavorful.

What we ate was very good, but it is a limited menu with a lot of sausage and peppers on the menu, neither of which I like. I didn't find much on the menu that appealed to me so it was hard to order. I ended up eating a salad and an appetizer. My companion had a basic salad and pasta dish with sausage which was good. Pizza choices were good, but I wasn't in the mood for so much starch for dinner. At first we were shown seats next to a right next to a couple when there were many open seats, then shown seats next to a table of 6 - so I suggested a table at the end which was a table away from the first couple. These days, I prefer to keep my privacy and germs away from others - especially when the restaurant was probably 80% empty. Service was very good; prices relatively high for a very average-looking, boring atmosphere. I really wanted to like it more but doubt I'll be back unless it's for a lunch or menu changes

First visit to see my stepdaughter in DC. The restaurant is a lttle off the beaten path, small and relatively intimate. There was a separate room with a large group celebrating so it was noisy. We all found the food delicious. Boys had the veal chop, my wife had the branzino, my daughter had the ravioli and I the pork tenderloin. The table shared tortellini. The wine I chose from the menu they did not have and substituted another unfamiliar to me. The waiter seemed to be having a bad day so service was average. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would recommend for the food.

Food was great along with the service. Would recommend

Our service was excellent. When we asked about the wine by the glass, he had the sommelier come to discuss the choices which was super helpful. Our dinners were excellent, both the appetizers and the mains. Their brodetto is one of the best dishes we’ve experienced in DC.
