The staff were friendly & professional. The food was perfect & in huge proportions!
I do really enjoy this restaurant. Great food, great people, and a great atmosphere. The only thing is that I’ve had experiences where they rush food off your table before you’re finished every time I have been there. Otherwise a fantastic place to eat.
Could not have been better. 3 appetizers were amazing. My dinner was outstanding. All 5 of us enjoyed everything we had. Service was as good as it gets. Juliette (?) from Columbia was the sweetest and proficient server. Loved everything!!
My 2nd time here was nowhere nearly as good as my first visit. I ordered their Cappelletti once again - Truffled Ricotta Ravioli, Melted Butter, Prosciutto. The ravioli's severely undercooked, flavors're off & super salty - it felt like eating straight up butter. I asked the kitchen to recook them since it felt so off & they came back out exactly the same lol... They probably just reheated my food under heat lamp. I'm not sure if it's due to a chef change or because they're overwhelmed with guests, but their Cappelletti that day's way worse than Olive Garden. So all in all, I probably spent $50 for something I can get in a grocery store's frozen section. Their prix fixe brunch menu's also gone so there's really no reason for me to come back anymore.
Incredible food, wonderful service, and the perfect setting for our pre-wedding dinner!
We brought our families here the night before our wedding, and everything was fantastic from start to finish. The Italian food was absolutely delicious, with every dish being a hit, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it! From appetizers to desserts, everything was full of flavor and beautifully prepared.
The staff was incredibly warm and friendly, with genuine smiles and attentive service that made us feel truly welcome. They graciously set up a private area for our group of 14, which gave us the perfect mix of intimacy and celebration.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend for any special gathering — or just a great Italian meal!
Great spot, especially on Monday's for their pasta special. The food is incredible, the service was great (Edith was our server and she was exceptional, professional and very friendly). The sommelier stopping by the table is a nice touch too and he reccomended the perfect wine pairing.
Looking forward to going back! Highly reccomended.
The food and customer service was great, love it
Great Italian food and service in an atmosphere that isn't rushed and a venue compliments the Navy Yard area.

It w as honestly just ok... just enough to sober me up from sipping wine. The food was not at all flavorful to me. I have no problem paying these prices for tasty food, but I'm leaving feeling cheated.
Our service was exceptionally fast and courteous, however.

We shared the Insalada Mista salad, Focaccia bread, and Rigatoni pasta which were all excellent. Service was very good.

I think this place is FANTASTIC. They are super friendly with food allergies, the food is delicious, and the service is great. The location can’t be beat - I would argue that their apertivo hour is one of the best happiest hours in DC. The small bites and discounted spritzes & Negronis on the water are impeccable. You have to check out Morini Monday for their pasta deal, too!

Campanelle Black Squid Ink Pasta!
Daniel and Martin were absolutely fantastic at helping us celebrate our recent engagement! Stopped in for happy hour and ended up staying for dessert. Martin was a top notch server who knew everything about the wine list and menu. Can’t wait to go back.
