50 Best Italian Restaurants near Forestville

“I've purchased pizza from this Ledo's a few times. I placed an order for a turkey bacon ranch pizza and I mistakenly thought the bacon was turkey bacon. It was pork bacon. I explained that I didn't eat pork and the worker quickly took my order back and made me a new pizza. He was so nice and it was ready super quick. I recommend this location!“

“PIZZA MOVERS, TAKOMA PARK Excellent cudmstoner service; great pizza! Faster, too!“

“I Love Italian - and when I say this place has THE BEST MEATBALLS I've ever tasted - it's saying a lot! The mushroom gnocchi was light and delish! Not to mention the roasted cauliflower, burrata and garlic bread!! It was a feast and worth every bite! The staff was friendly, polite and aimed to please! The decor and vibe super cool. It was recommended to me by a local and when I visit DC again - this gem will be a first stop!“

“Trattoria Alberto was fantastic. We met the owners, Alberto and Ernie, and they were very personable and took the time to meet the guests. The food and staff were amazing. Jamie was our waitress and she was awesome, especially considering it was only her 3rd day. By day 10 she may be running the place. Great food, great people, and definitely worth a visit!“

“The pizza and Chicken Alfredo Fettuccine 🤌🏾🤌🏾“

“Came here for a friend’s birthday.
Good food, nice service, and a beautiful space. It feels a little pretentious, though. I’ve been to Michelin-starred restaurants that took themselves less seriously. Still, overall good vibes and an enjoyable evening.“

“used to get the good fella all the time when working in Waldorf...one of the best things I ever ate.“

“We were visiting from out of town and what a great choice to go to Primo Hogies!! The whole staff was incredible!! Food was great! If anyone is on the fence about what they want to eat, this is the place to go! Thank you guys!! Looking forward to coming back!!“

“Just under a month ago my husband and I had another shabby experience at the OG in Ritchie Station. I was starting to lose faith in one of my favorite Darden restaurants. We wanted to retry to have this experience again at another location which is about the same distance from our home which was in Bowie Town Centre.
I hate to speculate Bowie vs Capital Heights 😒 but sorry Ritchie Station you've loss me ✌🏾. Thanks Bowie, OG for reviving our experience and love for OG food and service 🥰🤗“

“You just can't go wrong with Olive Garden—the food always hits right.
We made sure to get there right before the Sunday crowd hit, and it was the perfect timing. Because it wasn't packed yet, the service was incredibly quick and easy. We got our food fast, and everything tasted great as usual.
Pro Tip: If you're planning a weekend visit, definitely try to beat the peak lunch/dinner rush to get the fastest service!“

“The pizza and salad today was extra amazing!!! Delivery was right on time and everything was perfect for my Sunday working crew. Eight pizza and full tray of salad is no small order and everything was perfect. The service is always friendly and professional for all my requests. Thank you for your hard work in this cold weather!!!“

“Visited Masseria on January 19, 2022. This one-star Michelin restaurant offers a tasting menu built around regional Italian dishes. Courses included branzino with sunchoke, agnolotti del plin filled with lobster and finished with basil and breadcrumbs, and strascinati with guinea fowl ragù and Parmigiano. Antipasti featured gnocco fritto with mortadella and pistachio, burrata with Wellfleet oyster and Kristal caviar, and carne cruda of Roseda Farms striploin. Dessert was torta al cioccolato with mascarpone and Okinawan black sugar gelato, followed by a Sicilian blood orange and green tea course.“

“Authentic N. Italian cuisine presided over by Roberto and Ivan.“

“Best Italian subs in the DMV!!!“

“Anthony’s NY Pizza & Pasta House was truly a 10/10 dining experience. From the warm welcome at the door to the attentive service throughout the meal, everything was exceptional. We started with a Caesar salad and complimentary freshly baked bread with butter, which set the tone perfectly. We ordered the white pizza and the filet mignon, and both were outstanding. The pizza was cooked to perfection—the crust alone was incredible—and the flavor was on point. The wine selection was also excellent and paired well with the meal.

I would highly recommend Anthony’s to anyone looking for high-quality food and great service. I’ll definitely be returning!“

“The food was excellent with equally excellent service. They get 5 stars.“

“Excellent food and service! Managers were present and constantly roaming to ensure customers were being taken care of. Food came out quickly and hot, even though we were a party of 11 and at least 2 other large groups were also there at the same time. They were accommodating our extra breads breadstick requests and sent us home with a huge pile of chilled Andes mints :)“

“OH MY GOSH! Not only was the service the best but the food was AMAZING! Our whole group loved every bite and left satisfied! We WILL be back and recommending this place to everyone!“

“This was my first visit to The Strand DC for Brunch In Motion hosted by DesFit & Dance ( the last Sunday of each month and it was great. I grew up in this neighborhood and went to HD Woodson and didn't even know it was there. I love the energy and beauty it brings to Nannie Helen Burroughs Avenue. Although I didn't have brunch my family did and they enjoyed it. It was clean, great design and the GM Tre made sure we were well taken care of.“

“If your looking for great wings and amazing subs, this is the place! I would give ten stars if I could“

“This is my favorite lunch place in DC. The food is outstanding, the staff are friendly, and the restaurant itself provides the feeling that you're enjoying a local sandwich shop. This is the best sandwich bread you can get in DC, and it's not even close. You can taste the freshness in every bite and the addition of being able to buy the meats and fresh baked rolls separately gives Salumeria a local, small-European town quality that can't be matched at other places. For this price point and this level of sandwich creation, you won't find anything better in DC. Try the Crudo, it's a classic, simple sandwich that provides rich flavors in every bite with fresh mozzarella and prosciutto that melts in your mouth.“

“the pizza here is pretty good. been maybe 6 times; will likely go again. the style is hand toss / wood fire. crust above par. a tough greasy, lite sauce, standard cheese, but love in the craft. better assortment of toppings than most. also whole kitchen & bar from adjoined Trattoria available.

look at a lot of these other reviews in context: complaints about 3rd pay delivery being cold, complaints about pandemic rules. that's 2/3 the negative. liking it or not, that's fair. service going sideways would be fair. personally i have not had a bad experience. this isn't a bad pizza joint and the 3.6 rating is ???“

“The new ownership has done an amazing job! The pizza quality has improved significantly, the ingredients taste fresher, and the service is excellent. You can really see the effort they’ve put into making the place better. Highly recommend giving it a try and supporting the new owners! 🍕👏“

“This place was recommended by a friend who lives in the area-and to him, I say THANK YOU! Everything was excellent, from the staff to the food; I couldn't have asked for better. The calamari and shrimp with peppers appetizer were possibly the best appetizer I've ever had. The lasagna was out of this world cheesy! It was delicious in every way. Highly recommend this place; you won't be disappointed!“

“Excelente servicio al cliente. Los ingredientes de muy buena calidad y el sabor es delicioso. 100% recomendado.“

“So I've only had pizza bolis one other time, years ago, from a location in Virginia and it was nothing like this... and that's a great thing cause that other pizza was so disgusting It took me years to give pizza bolis another try, and I'm glad I did. It was reminiscent of a childhood NYC papa John's pizza with that garlic sauce on the side. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My usual fast pizza spot used to be domino's but this was way better so now when I want quick pizza this will definitely be my go to. We spent about $45 and got two pizzas with all the toppings we wanted and a gyro, and fed our family of 5 and had enough leftovers for 3 people the next day.“

“My family came here last weekend and we had a wonderful meal and the services was great! Pepperoni pizza was loaded and the sauce was awesome!! The subs were packed and flavorful and the french fries were crispy and on point. Thank you guys!!!“

“Ledos pizza is always great! Been coming here for years. Ledos pizza in College Park, Maryland. We do carry out pizza once a month. Carry out service was good. But the BISCUIT sized paper plates are ridiculous. I can't get one slice pizza on the plate. Paper plates are way too small. Spending money on the pizza, can't even give you full sized paper plates. RIDICULOUS!“

“Absolute Perfection, excellent food, service, and shop.“

“Fahim was very polite and professional as he took my order. It was a hot day and eating in the restaurant gave me a very chill lunch/dinner break. The mozzarella sticks were delicious (as always) and I appreciated the clear passion of those who work here, leading me to leave this review. There was also street parking, which you can’t always find in DC. Highly recommend!!“

“I haven't been inside since the H Ledo re-opened. My grandson usually does pickup for me. I can say that since the re-opening their previously good pizza is now excellent. The two I bought
a few days ago made me want to turn around and get another immediately.“

“Food is 🍕 delicious 😋 and the service is amazing“

“We had the wings a meatball sub and a pepperoni pizza.

The wings were over fried a bit but the sauce was fantastic. We did spicy. The issue is the size. They’re the mini wings.

The pizza crust is doughy and crisp which is perfect. The cheese and pepperoni are ok, the sauce was more sweet than most and lacked flavor. I prefer toppings and sauce with lots of herbs and some salt so it wasn’t for me. My friend absolutely loved it and is ready to go back for more. The pizza is a good one if you have a mix of people that never agree because it is a middle ground flavor.

The meatball sub I would not do again. There was no flavor or seasoning. But there was a lot of cheese and that was good.“

“I attended a special dinner event at osteria costa on Friday April 27th it was a absolutely spectacular the live music and the food and specially the service Joel and Hugo were highly professional they were responsive of all my requests they never leave any empty glassed they replaced the silverware few times I really admired their full attention to details I highly recommend this place also Sunday beach is something to try .
Special thanks to Joel and Hugo for their excellent service.“

“Best. Service. Ever. Love this place!“

“pesimas hamburguesas carne muy seca y mal sabor“

“yummy pizza and good service very delicious just love it!“

“This has been my family’s favorite pizza since before I was born. The sauce is special and different than other pizza spots. The toppings are high quality. I love their thick slice pepperoni but also appreciate the halal pepperoni. Both very good! I also love the old bay wings. Started off as my mom’s favorite pizza shop and now it’s my son’s favorite. Pretty cool when I think about it ❤️ I’ve dined in and taken it to go from this location. Good either way.“

“I grew up on Detroit style pizza being from Detroit area. I can say over the past few years Detroit style pizza has become popular. I have never had a pizza as good as this Detroit style pizza. The best, give it a try.“
