“So I had the steak sandwich and my wife had the little mini 5-in Mama's spicy pizza. Both were excellent, very good. Very tasty. Cooked perfectly and the service was really good. Would highly recommend stopping in here. It's kind of like a little known place.“

“Att Fabio! I’m here now and Maria is my server. She is the best! I started with the grilled calamari and asked about the vongole. She brought me a sample to try! She is well versed with your menu, it was a pleasure to dine here.“

“My wife and I had an absolutely amazing evening dining out here on a long weekend trip to DC for our Birthdays. The food was incredible I have not found one dish at this or the Chicago location that wasn’t great. Abagail was simply the best waitress we have EVER had. She was attentive, personable and really went out of the way to give us the best dining experience my wife and I have ever had from top to bottom. We had a great experience in Chicago but I have to say I think the food was a touch better here. I am comparing caviar to caviar here as both were great, but DC has the win here and certainly did with our waitress as well.“

“This was some of the best food I’ve ever had. I would never normally choose Italian as a n “”out to eat” option but I’m so glad I did! I would eat here night after night if I could.“

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

“First impression, fancy place yet accepting of my Washington Capitals hoodie. I thought for sure I was gonna get calamari but the waitress sweet talked me into getting chicken parmigiana. And wow am I glad she did. It’s like a pizza but with a chicken tender crust. Great work! And right when I didn’t think they could do any better, I got a free cookie!!! That is service.“

“Still a great place after all these years. Lovely atmosphere, great food, attentive service. A wonderful night out.“

“Cannot say enough about how good they do EVERYTHING. Always fresh and made with care, love, perfection, out of the best ingredients. Whenever we are in town, we go to breakfast, and sometimes lunch or dinner. Fantastic place to grab a delicious bite.“

“The bread was divine. The manicotti was pretty good. It has cold crab on top. The server told me beforehand, which wasn't a problem, but I just don't get it. Seems like the dish would have been better and more composed with warm crab. The salad on top didn't taste like much and didn't add anything other than texture to the dish. The pasta and seafood were both cooked to perfection. Service was great.“

“Great menu of food and drinks, well executed, and in a neighborhood locale… well-spaced outdoor seating.“

“Thank you for such an amazing experience.

The owner, Tim, was incredibly kind. He came over to our table a few times, sat with us, and even shared the story behind the pasta. Learning that everything was made from scratch made the experience even more special.

Everyone was so warm and welcoming. I didn’t catch the name of our server, but she was an absolute sweetheart.

The atmosphere felt like home…like a neighborhood spot where you’re just eating with friends. Truly reminiscent of Italy.

Chef Nick even came out and brought a special dessert for my nephew, which meant so much, especially since we were celebrating his birthday. Out of all the places I could have chosen, I’m so happy I chose Ulivo. It genuinely felt meant to be. This will definitely be a place I come back to!“

“Shoulda had some dessert after the meal I ate.“

“The food was phenomenal - we had the beet & burrata salad, a Margherita pizza, and the wild boar tagliatelle. They have a nice wine list as well. Can’t wait to come back and try other dishes!!!“

“Every bite, Always right! I appreciate your drivers and will tip them.“

“Delicious food-very relaxing atmosphere-friendly staff“

“Wonderful food & charming outdoor patio space . Cocktails yummy 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!“

“My husband and I were visiting DC for the weekend and decided we wanted a nice meal on our last night. Google brought us to Trattoria Alberto which I chose because it was only about a 10 minute uber from our hotel. I was nervous bc we didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday night but we walked in and were seated immediately. Then I was nervous bc it was 6:30 on a Saturday and the place was mostly empty. Our waiter, Luis, was so kind and friendly. He went through the specials which all sounded amazing. My husband got the beef carpaccio special bc Luis raved over it. He ordered it as an appetizer bc… YOLO. He said it was even better than Luis described. He then had the veal saltimbocca which he devoured. I played it simple and got a caesar salad and fettuccine alfredo w/chicken. The salad was fine but the alfredo sauce was the best I’ve had. The drinks were flowing, world cup soccer was on and everyone was having a good time with each other including the staff, ourselves and the table next to us. We ordered dessert to take back to the hotel. The chocolate mousse cake and cheesecake were fabulous as we sat in bed. I have no idea why this place was so empty on a Saturday night. Maybe it was a fluke or maybe locals don’t realize what a special gem they have right there in Capitol Hill. Regardless, we will be talking about this place for a while and returning if we ever happen to be in DC again!“

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

“The best Italian food in the DMV!!!!“

“We are tourist & was searching for a place too eat since our first choice for dinner totally ignored us after we sat there 30 minutes we left. This pizza joint is absolutely delicious. The thin crust was delicious especially on the cheese pizza. The only negative thing I have too say is y’all charging too much for a house salad. I mean if you gonna charge $14 @ least give me something other than basic lettuce.“

“he food was very good, and overall we had an enjoyable experience. The service was mostly excellent, although there was one issue during our visit—they accidentally missed one of our courses. I didn’t realize it until later, so I called the restaurant to let them know. To their credit, they handled it incredibly well. They apologized, prepared the missing course, and actually sent a driver to deliver it directly to our hotel.

I really appreciated how they took responsibility and went above and beyond to make it right. That level of customer service left a great impression. Of all the courses, the one that really stood out to me was the lemon cake dessert. It was an unexpected highlight and easily one of the most memorable dishes of the meal.“

“The food here is incredible. They make their own dough for both the pizza and the crispy focaccia sandwiches and it’s exquisite. And their gelato is super flavorful. Service is amazing and so friendly. Also, books and coloring books for kids while you wait for food.

I want everyone to know about this place!“

“I like this place I would like any of the men there. I'll be good..“

“Vengo spesso da voi per il pranzo con i colleghi e uso i buoni pasto Coverflex, sapete se li accettate? Non vi trovo sull’app e sarebbe comodo poterli usare qui.“

“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!“

“I ordered the Lasagna dinner and I The serving was large and the salad was with Balsamic Vinaigrette’s. They also make pizza did not try from the amount of Togo orders it must be good. The management needs to decide are a full fledged Italian restaurant or just a pizza place serving some Italian food. I would go back again.“

“Fun sitting on the swings to eat! Sausage pizza was really good and my daughter said the gluten free margherita pizza was good, too!“

“Best Italian subs in the DMV!!!“

“The pizza was some of the best we’ve had. Delizioso! Definitely a great place to eat.“

“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.“

“First time trying this place, after seeing an ad online and I'm glad I did. Most orders appear to be To-Go, but the dining area is suitable for a quick bite, for a few people. I had the hot honey pepperoni pizza, steak & cheese, and cinna-bites. Everything was good, and the service was friendly. Don't know how I forgot to take a picture, but I'll be back!“

“fantastic new restaurant by chef Amy Brandwein. I feel like I'm at a cafe in Italy!“

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

“The BEST food, the BEST service!“

“It was incredible—surprisingly incredible. Under the new family management, and with no exaggeration, the food, service, prices, and team were among the best I’ve ever experienced in DC.

We tried the pizza, salmon, chicken burger, gyro, and shrimp, and everything was amazing. The flavors were genuinely some of the best I’ve ever tasted. The portions, quality, and prices made the experience even better.

I highly recommend this place to everyone. I honestly can’t resist going back again and again!“

“I've been meaning to try this for years. I can't believe I waited so long. The food is SO GOOD!! We got butter chicken pizza, lamb Rogan Josh, garlic naan, and kashmiri naan. All delicious. The lamb Rogan Josh is some of the best I've ever had!! And they were so nice while I waited for my take out, offering me a beverage and a place to sit. I'm really looking forward to ordering from here again!“

“We absolutely loved everything about this place. The food was amazing, the service was exceptional, and the unlimited soup refills were such a wonderful touch.

I’ve always wanted to experience an authentic Italian restaurant because I absolutely love pasta and Italian cuisine, and this place exceeded all my expectations. Our server, I believe his name was Oli (or Wili), was incredibly kind and attentive. He recommended a few dishes, and we trusted his suggestions, which turned out to be perfect.

The cozy, family dining atmosphere made the whole experience even more special. From the welcoming ambiance to the delicious food and genuinely warm service, everything felt just right. We will definitely be coming back!“

“Great service @ DC the seafood appetizer was delicious!“

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

“This was great compared to pizza we get in Colorado. Thin crust, plenty of toppings and they were sliced big so you could actually tell what you were eating.“
