Tonari offers an enjoyable dining experience with friendly and efficient staff, making it a good spot for celebrations or a relaxing meal. The upstairs dining room adds a fun atmosphere to the restaurant. The menu features Italian-Japanese fusion dishes, including delicious pizzas like the unagi BBQ eel, signature dishes such as the corn pizza, and tasty starters like mini Caesar and roasted carrot. The pizzas are light and airy, made with Japanese flour for a unique texture, and options like the mentaiko, original, and Detroit style are flavorful and crispy. The garlic bread, especially the Korean garlic bread, is highly praised and considered fantastic. Drinks are strong and interesting, with excellent cocktails to pair with the meal. Customers also enjoyed the uni pasta, though some found it average, and noted the alligator dish on the menu. Service can be slow, with some guests experiencing long waits for wine or assistance, and the restaurant's ambiance is nice but somewhat loud at times. The restroom has a slick floor, and the lighting can be disorienting for photos, but overall, the restaurant provides a clean, pleasant environment with a variety of flavorful dishes and attentive service in DC's Chinatown.
