Amazing food and service.
Great food and great service, I would highly recommend this place to anyone!
A bit salty the lasagna, but delicious.
Also the white house wine was good and I liked that we received a foccacia with olive oil as a starter from the house and it was very good 🤤

Retrobottega is a charming wine bar with a tapas-style menu, perfect for a date night or after-work indulgence. The restaurant offers a variety of high-quality dishes, including baccala, ravioli, pappardelle, and an acclaimed apple tart. The service is attentive, and the fried calamari and short ribs are particularly noteworthy. The menu may be small, but every dish is done very well. Guests can enjoy a cozy atmosphere, sit outside, and indulge in fantastic cocktails. The restaurant is quickly becoming one of the favorite spots in DC, with a warm and inviting environment where diners are encouraged to thank the chef on their way out.
