I have no idea why this place has a 4.5/5. Both the parmesan, butter, and garlic spaghetti and the pesto spaghetti were not good. Both dishes were bland and over priced. On top of the entrees being bad, our desert, tiramisu, was partially frozen and unappetizing.

Pesto was oily and oddly acidic as if made with lemon or vinegar. Pesto was also not blended properly. The parmesean butter garlic pasta was bland, it seemed like not even the pasta water was salted, and also very oily. The negroni was too sweet and seemed to be made with Select either in place of or in combination with campari. The tiramisu was literally frozen when it came to the table. Not the worst food I've ever had, but probably the worst I've had at this price point

Unimpressed. Long wait time and the food was mediocre at best. Lots of Italian restaurants in this city... Wish we'd tried a different place.

The best pasta restaurant in the DC area. The restaurant is relatively small and very intimate. Ita great for small groups. The food is as amazing as you can get.

I went here a while ago. The food is authentic Italian. However the service could be better. Seems like it's a family run business. There was just one person in charge of several tables so there was a long wait whenever we needed something. But overall it was a good experience.

Service is almost nonexistent. Bitter and grouchy when you do get service. It's really a takeout spot with a few tables pretending to be a FS restaurant. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

For a city (and neighborhood) with terrible pizza this really shines. I live nearby but this is a quick walk from union station for out of towners and the sauce is great. I usually don’t add reviews but this place seems new and I want it to last!

Food was delicious! Tortellini might be the best I have had in the states. Will definitely be back.
