Food was excellent and so was the service. It was our anniversary and they offered us free prosecco. The vibe of the place was super cute, but it got crowded fast so make sure you get there early or have a reservation.

I dined at Caruso’s DC location on 08/16/25. It was a 5 Star experience. Staff was very attentive the food was delicious. I had the Veal Franchise which was tender I was able to cut it with a fork it was the best veal I ever had. The garlic bread appetizer was amazing! I finished with coffee and a slice of Oreo Cheesecake which was delicious! I highly recommend this establishment. When I am in Washington again I know where I will be dining.

Great food and fantastic service. If you like wine, they have a great selection as well. My husband got the Butterfinger dessert and I got the Tiramisu; both were fantastic!

Way too salty. Chardonnay was old.
Second time here - just as good as the first. So many things on the menu were calling to us. We came on the later side, but were not rushed. Wish we lived closer. We'd be there once a week! Super-friendly service and wonderful food - hard to top!
Incredible. Huge portion sizes and reasonably priced. Cocktails were awesome. Incredible gluten free bread - and FREE. Same with gluten free pasta - no charge to substitute it and it was really yummy. I got the gnocchi gluten free and my roommate got the Alfredo. We both loved it.

The food was very good. I had the trout piccia and it was outstanding. However, it was difficult to hear sometimes because it was so loud.
Wonderful dining experience — we sat at the bar with no reservations and were greeted very nicely and seated very promptly on a Friday. Food was amazing, although the portion was a bit smaller than I expected, and the drinks were very good. Our bartenders were extremely accommodating and prompt, and Von and Sulma made the experience even better! Would recommend them to anyone.

The Alfredo is bomb. Not just cheese and cream but flavor. The seafood fra diavola also bomb. Our server was great! A lil loud if it's crowded but not distracting

This continues to be a gem --great food, fairly priced with an outstanding drink menu as well. The wait staff is outstanding, and the entire evening was first rate.
I picked up takeout tonight and just want to pass along my thanks for your kitchen’s attention to two requests I made in the comment box on two separate entrees. The attention to detail was noted and greatly appreciated. And the food was delicious as usual!

One of the best Italian spots in the city. I dream about the garlic bread!
Iviana was our waitress last night and she was AMAZING! So nice and friendly - she was so considerate and my friend and I had an amazing time. The food was phenomenal also! I will come back just for Iviana!
Our food did not come as we ordered, but what we received was very good. The wine suggestion was tasty. Our waitress was lovely, and the manager stopped by to check in on us. We would go again.
