The seafood was overcooked and fishy tasting. We split our meal but was charged double—$50 for a sub par pasta dish. We found something in the bottle of wine- crystal looking in the bottom of a wine glass and the waiter provided another glass of wine but did not take anything off the bill. Gnocchi was in fettuccine sauce and not good. Overall, great little restaurant with regard to location and ambience but will not be going again.

We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed the food. This is authentic Italian. It wasn’t as busy as I would’ve expected or as busy as some of the surrounding places but I assume that people enjoy the bar scene more than a nice restaurant. Was well worth taking the risk and visiting.

Authentic Italian experience we haven’t had anywhere else in the DMV area. Understated elegance, excellent food and wine, and affordable - we felt we had traveled to Italy while there.

It was a lovely time, and nice that there was free parking just across the street. The service was attentive, and the menu had a nice variety. A great place to have nice evening out.
