The cocktails here are excellent, and the wine pairing recommended to us was particularly good. The seafood was clean and aromatic with no fishiness, which made the pasta very enjoyable. Even the bread was stunning.
Overall the cooking is impressive! The meat dishes were tender and well prepared. It is slightly on the pricier side, but well suited for a special occasion.
If I had to note a drawback, the space is rather small and the surrounding area feels a bit rough around the edges. Still, we left very happy and thoroughly satisfied.

The food is mediocre. You’d expect much better but I won’t be back for some half-assed ravioli or overpriced and undercooked lobster risotto. Just disappointing. Not to mention the servers all seemed way too unbothered to come by while the restaurant was half empty. Not going back

Felt like a home cooked meal in my aunt's home. Not crowded feeling even when most tables occupied.

Love this restaurant and the people there. Fantastic meal, wait staff and wine list? I love introducing this place to foodies who haven't been there!

The pastas were all very tasty, as were the cocktails and wine (the dirty martini was perfect) Perfect for a cold winter night!

Very good. The rabbit and thyme ragu is really tasty. Pasta is cooked perfectly. The aglianico is a full body with a lot of tannins, great combo with the buttery pasta. Wish I could drink the tomato sauce. The owner is attentive and kind.

Five star tasting menu for Christmas Eve by Chef Mossimo...absolutely outstanding!!! Started with a fresh green salad, then a Wild Boar Ragu, next Safron Rissoto, Dover Sole and then the perfect Beef Tenderloin with garlic mashed potatoes. Unreal. Ragu had a little different spin from the rabbit ragu; very flavorful and robust. Safron Rissoto was creamy, rich, and very tasty. We've never had Dover Sole; it was grilled to perfection and melted in our mouths. Finally, the Beef Tenderloin/Filet Mignon was another mouthmelter. Just fantastic. Glad we chose the tasting menu for tonight. The team at San Lorenzo's outdid itself. Service and atmosphere were excellent. We're regulars and this will keep us coming back again and again!!!!

I had a really unfortunate experience during our dinner on 12/11. Our server barely spoke to us, rushed every interaction, and seemed annoyed whenever we asked a question. We were there for my cousin's birthday, and when I asked his recommendation between two dessert choices he told me “you know her best” and asked me to pick. On top of that, each course was very delayed (we were only a 3 top), and when the food did come it was salty (all dishes) and undercooked (the pasta). Needless to say, I won't be back!
Everything was amazing as always. I've been coming there for a number of years, it's a small cozy place with very nice people. Pasta dishes are my favorite.

Don't waste your money. Not sure how they have such good ratings. Mediocre food for too expensive prices. Not great service. Midwest decor. Lighting gives you a headache.
Denise
Amazing food! We shared calamari salad and zucchini flowers which were delicious and light not over fried or too saucy. I had traditional ravioli in a light tomato sauce and it was incredible.
Raymond
Nice small restaurant. Food and service was excellent. The ravioli were delicious. A side of asparagus was grilled to perfection. Enjoyed our meal.

We had a wonderful dinner service for a special occasion. Shout out to Marjan and the team for an impeccable experience. The food was light and very flavorful. We really enjoyed the calamari, ravioli, and halibut. Don’t sleep on the dessert either! The strawberry cobbler and limoncello were sublime! Will definitely return on our next trip to DC.
