“Marco is an amazing chef and a wonderful host as he and our waiter, Fernando were both fabulous. Coming from Providence, RI we know all about great, authentic Italian food and this restaurant was superb. We would highly recommend it and only wish we lived closer so we could frequent Manalu often. Thank you for a memorable evening and such delicious food.“

“Stopped by and ordered the Fumo Pizza and Black Truffle Pizza, along with the free Margherita Pizza. The pizza tastes fresh, and enjoyed the texture and flavors of each pie. My favorite was the Margherita. Definitely will come back to try the other pizzas.“

“Went for the first time tonight, with my wife and son. We recently moved to the area and had been missing authentic Italian sandwiches; no longer! This place is fantastic. We tried a few of the cold cut subs and antipasto platter. Perfection. Love the soft roll bread and spicy relish they use, too. Can't wait to try the pizza next time, it looked amazing.“

“We had a late lunch, so not busy. Food was excellent. Service was good, as was the atmosphere. I feel to judge it thoroughly and truly, I should go at peak hours. However, I would definitely go again, and I have already recommended it to a friend.“

“I've lived in chicago, New York & live in Annapolis. And I've yet to find a sandwich like the Tony V that can compete. I drive 65 mins on special occasions just to get this sandwich. The owners are two brothers who truly care about the quality of their products. If you're looking for good food go somewhere else.... If you want the top of the line authentic sandwiches.... There's no place better!“

“The service starts as you are greeted at the door by the attentive hostess, escorted to your seat, met by the waiter and provided your clean menus, another server asks for drinks and they are brought immediately. Right away, you order is taken and then comes the fresh, tasty bread, butter and sauce. And then the appetizer arrives steaming hot, right out of the kitchen. Followed by a waiter quietly refilling the water and ice tea. From the back corner and behind a barrier the manager is looking across the medium-size restaurant floor and bar area for anyone in need of service. He addresses everything quietly. Noone hovers over the guests, instead the servers constantly check your drinks and quietly refill them. Their manners and service are consistent. Without exception they each say please, may I, thank you and so on. This crew is well-trained and very good at what they do. And again, timely, the food came out and both dishes were hot from the kitchen. I was warned my plate was hot and we were offered another serving of parmesan and oil bread dip. A loud noise from a delivery driver is blaring music in the foyer and the manager immediately addresses it as he should. The food was excellent, tasty, not just heated up, not generic, not bland. Its refreshing to visit a new restaurant and enjoy a new and good taste. The restaurant was clean, well-maintained, with a good ambiance, the correct background music at the proper volume. And all the staff were consistently masked and careful on how they seated people with seperation without being too obvious. This was our first time visiting. The customers were varied, maybe 26-30 in number around 8 pm. There were families, couples and dates and so on. We recommend this place. It's a bit far for us but we definitely intend on returning. As for the cost, it was right in line with all the Italian restaurants.“

“I understand how it feels to have low expectations for food and then be pleasantly surprised by how good it is. I had a great experience with the pizza - the amount of cheese and sauce on it, along with the light and crunchy crust, must have been a real treat for my taste buds. Based on my recommendation, I would consider trying their pizza myself. And if you do end up trying their burgers or sandwiches in the future, please let me know how they are!“

“- ⭐ Swift Order Service: Despite the long wait time, the order service is impressively quick, ensuring minimal time spent hungry.- ⭐ Limited Menu Options: While choices are limited, each item on the menu is crafted with care and precision, focusing on quality over quantity.- ⭐ High-Quality Dough: The pizza dough stands out for its perfect balance of chewiness and crispiness, setting a high standard for Neapolitan-style pizza.- ⭐ Flavorful Toppings: Whether it's the classic Margherita, the bold Mariana Rustica with Mozzarella and Nduja, or the unique Oven Roasted Potato and Onion Pizza, each topping is bursting with flavor.- ⭐ Must-Try Nduja Addon: The inclusion of Nduja, a spicy spreadable pork sausage, is a must for adding a delicious protein element with a kick to your pizza.- ⭐ Worth the Wait: Despite the lengthy wait time, the exceptional taste and quality of the pizzas make every minute worth it, leaving a lasting impression on your taste buds.“

“Went there and ordered pizza today and my husband and I was very pleased, the customer service was impeccable and I definitely would suggest this spot, to anyone that is in the area and definitely worth the drive. You’ll definitely see us again.“

“Some of the best pizza in the DMV! We order from them frequently. If you cherish a good crust, theirs is highly recommended, crunchy with a great chew to it. They have an impressive variety of fresh toppings, and not just the same old: gyro meat, fresh garlic, ricotta, spinach, you name it. And they're not stingy with the toppings either! The sauce is savory and not sickly sweet like some other pizza places I won't name but rhyme with Shmoppa Shmon's. Pretty much every time we order from them they have some sort of wallet-friendly promotion going on that offers significant savings. And the service is great too: whether we pick up or get delivery, our food always comes hot, fresh, quickly, and with a big smile. I can't recommend this place highly enough. They earned this review!“

“Our family was visiting the area and after a long day of site seeing we decided to order pizza to our room. 1st night we ordered a large supreme, small margarita pizza, med buffalo wings. Everything was fresh, hot and cooked perfectly. Our family enjoyed it so much we ordered again from here. This time we added chicken fettuccine Alfredo, and opted for a large margarita pizza and more wings.. The people who took our order were very friendly, delivery was fast. We will definitely order from here on our next visit.“

“"You know... We have never had a bad meal at a Ledo. Considering how many we have visited... That's impressive."This location is no exception.Promptly greeted. Sat immediately. Our server was quick to the table and made sure everything was accurate and drinks stayed full. She even suggested we keep 1/2 the pizza at the front already packed up for ToGo.Enjoyed the new Taco Fries. Maybe offer some jalapenos and salsa with them?Wings are always a solid choice. Caeser Salad was fresh and had the right amount of dressing. Pizza was enjoyed by my son when I got it home.Will definitely stop back into this location again.“

“We were in Gaithersburg for a soccer tournament with our son. We googled nearby Italian restaurants and stumbled upon Il pizzico. Being of Sicilian descent, I noticed they had some familiar foods you can’t just get anywhere and made a reservation. What a pleasant surprise! From the carpaccio and arancini appetizers, pasta and risotto to the gelato and cannoli desserts, everything was 5 stars. We will be back in the spring!“

“Ordered takeout, got myself Eggplant Parmesan, and my girls got the Chicken Parmesan, both were amazing. My boyfriend is gluten sensitive, so he ate the gluten free pizza, he said besides it being a little too crispy it tasted great!Dietary restrictions: Makes a good gluten free pizza“

“I am giving the ratings based on Quality of Food, Flavor , Pricing for the items that it is known for.Yes, it is NOt upscale, yes, it is NOT fancy or high end Indian. But,For the 20 yrs I have known this place,- the Somasa Quality is the same. The snacks, nann, Lassi is the same.Quality and Flavourful Indian Food for very Cheap. Probably, the CHEAPEST in America.There is also a Brick Oven Pizza called IL - Ferno in the same place. That has amazing quality.Congrats for Decades of working and All the Best.“

“We have always heard good things about "Biscotti"; however, we never went there until last weekend. Boy have we been missing out!!! My husband has hearing issues, and choosing a restaurant has always been a struggle because of the noise, and especially the loud music that seems to be so common these days. Well, we just happen to be near the restaurant the other day, and decided to drop in. It's quite unassuming because it's tucked into a small shopping center - it's all a disguise if you ask me! This place is a gem!!! Wonderful menu, beautifully decorated, very friendly staff, and the only noises are from other customers enjoying their time too! Wonderful!!! We will be back ~~ SOON!“

“My daughter and I went to dine for the third time. Joseph was absolutely delightful. It didn’t hurt that the host/manager on duty was singing along with the music playing made for great entertainment, lol.This lemon butter salmon was exceptionally well prepared. We always enjoy the bruschetta and the lasagna was not bad. Always have plenty for leftovers.“

“Ordered through GrubHub and it was very easy. Carry out service was kind and efficient and easy to access the location. Food tasted fantastic, generous portions, and was still warm. Only picky thing I can say is the calamari was pretty soggy, but then again it was in a carryout container.“
