“Came in here for dinner tonight! The burrata salad with the beets and the pear pizza were both AMAZING! bartender was attentive and kind. very good service. impeccable actually. delish. will def be back.“

“I am from Baltimore and while working in Germantown I wanted something to eat other than fast food. I went into Paisano's around 530pm and was greeted so nicely by a young woman. I did not want a sub because Montgomery Co normally you get a steak um and that is what I am used too. I ordered the chicken Parmigian with pasta. Wow the sauce was amazing, pasta was perfect, the breaded chicken was covered in cheese. The garlic bread was so good. Great price, large portion that I could not finish. I told the girl behind counter that the food was awesome and it made this fatboy happy. I am 6'4 & 280lbs and I wanted to hug everyone but I did not want to scare anyone. Thank you!“

“Beautiful restaurant with impeccable service and amazing menu! Andrew, the manager and Michael, our waiter pay attention to every detail. So happy to have in Olney!“

“😊🌟 Fontina Grill: Where Dining Becomes an Art Form! 🌟 If excellence could be served on a platter, Fontina Grill would be the Michelin-starred sculptor behind it. From the moment I walked in, I felt like royalty who somehow stumbled upon the holy grail of Italian restaurants in the DMV. I’m never going anywhere else, because clearly, this place was crafted by the pasta gods themselves. Now, let’s talk about Declan. This man is not just a waiter—he’s a hospitality virtuoso, a maestro of service. Declan served with the kind of confidence, precision, and charm that one would expect only in dreams or in five-star Italian dining halls on the Amalfi Coast. His attentiveness was nonplussable (and yes, I dare you to try and outdo it). I wouldn’t be surprised if he moonlights as a diplomat or a secret agent because his service was that smooth. Jennifer, his right-hand helper, deserves a standing ovation. She made everything seamless, adding warmth, grace, and an extra sparkle to an already stellar experience. I’m convinced they have some secret handshake, a dance of synchronized efficiency and care. It's like watching a beautiful duet—where plates and glasses are the choreography and customer delight is the standing ovation. The food? Oh, bella vita! I had a salad so fresh, it may have whispered compliments back at me. My friend’s pasta dish was a carb-laden poem—tender, flavorful, and divine. Each bite was a crescendo of Italian bliss. Clearly, the kitchen staff channels their inner Da Vinci every time they plate a dish. If this restaurant were a movie, it would sweep the Oscars. If it were a song, it would top the charts. If it were a unicorn, it would be the kind that sprinkles magic over your life. To Declan, Jennifer, and the entire Fontina Grill team: Grazie mille ❤️! And "Un milione di grazie." 🌹🌹🌹 You made me feel special, seen, and incredibly grateful. Never changing. Ever. IN SUMMARY: **Fontina Grill is, without question, the pinnacle of Italian dining—an experience of unparalleled excellence. 🍷✨ Every detail, from the service to the cuisine, resonates with authentic passion and flawless execution. Simply put, it is the *apex* of EPIC Italian culinary artistry and the finest I have ever encountered. 🍝🌟** You become alive when you have gone to Fontina Grill - or maybe you will even become a unicorn 🍀🌟🦄 ITALIAN MAGIC PIXIE DUST WILL FOLLOW YOU FOREVER 🙏“

“Pizza Rosa is a gem. I ordered cheese pizza with extra cheese and their chicken alfredo. First, their dough/crust IS different. But that's what makes it unique and special. The tomato sauce (made with san marzano, as it should be) is simple yet flavorful. The cheese is perfect too, and next time I won't get the extra cheese because I don't think I needed it after all. So many chain pizza places in my experience are so stingy on the cheese in general, so I order extra by default, out of fear that the sauce to cheese ratio will be 85:15. But Pizza Rosa has you covered, my dear fellow cheese lovers.

But now, let me cover their angelic chicken alfredo. It's hands down the best I have ever had (and I've had plenty from various top notch Italian restaurants in the area, all the way to Stouffer's). The kind of noodle is a new experience on its own and has the perfect texture, capturing the sauce in every nook and cranny so that every bite is perfectly balanced. The chicken itself wasn't overcooked or under seasoned. It was literally perfect. Tender as can be. And don't even get me started on the alfredo sauce. I'm a cheese and alfredo aficionado, and I have the highest standards when it comes to this kind of sauce, and Pizza Rosa's alfredo is superior to any in the universe.

My only regret? Not ordering the dulce de leche cheesecake. That stuff looked heavenly and I'm hoping to order it soon (like tomorrow).

Job well done, Pizza Rosa crew. Job. Well. Done.“

“Delicious food. We just had our dinner delivered to the pool. Lasagna, Broccoli, Caesar Salad. The family raved about it and had 3+ servings, kids included.“

“This place has the most delicious pizza in MoCo. The toppings are generous and the sauce is fresh and delicious. My favorite part of a good pizza is the crust and Paisanos has perfected it! Crunchy but soft on the inside, and nice and garlicky. If you’re like me and you think Ledo’s crust is too undercooked, Pizza Hut’s crust is too greasy, Dominos’ is usually burnt and Papa John’s crust is flavorless and rock hard, YOU WILL LOVE PAISANOS. Crust done right! (The customer service is amazing too, the guys are so polite and patient, it’s really wonderful)“

“Great food! The service was great, and the people very friendly! We will definitely be returning customers!“

“My favorite restaurant is Gregorio"s. The food is delicious served warm, service is delightful and the place is always welcoming. If you are looking for a great meal visit Gegorio's Trattoria .“

“Carlos (server) was amazing! Very knowledgeable of the food and alternatives. Friendly and professional. Thank you Carlos for the exceptional service. And Ada(manager), Great attitude and open to questions. Thank you Ada for ensuring a great evening.“

“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!“

“Good food, good service. Reasonable prices“

“Lemon ricotta cookies are amazing!“

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

“Friendly, quaint and delicious food. Great service. What more do you need“

“Stopped by with my wife and 2 of my daughters celebrating mother's day. First off , what a hidden gem, in a strip shopping center. We had calamari which was probably the best I've ever had, we had spaghetti with meatballs and with meat sauce also linguine with shrimp delicious all around. Our servers were on point all night, wine was perfect and the peronis were ice cold. Way to go guys, we will be back“

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

“Great food and nice atmosphere“

“I had the hot pastrami sub today , it was delicious and came out very fast“

“We had a family Father's Day and two birthday get together. It was a lot of fun bowling and the food was wonderful. From the small plates while bowling to a late lunch downstairs. Thanks to Jeremy for the Great food. And Jose is a great server, He was very helpful with the menu food came out fast and hot.It was our first time and we were very pleased. Please get elevator fixed as I had issues with all the steps. Thanks for a great time. David, Cara and Family Bowers.“

“My group (30+ people) had our fundraising event at this restaurant on January 13th. The restaurant was fully prepared for our arrival, and their food & service were all done well. Our group had a great time! (I personally had fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp, and it was beautifully cooked.)“

“We had such a great experience here. Our kids enjoyed playing with the pizza dough before their dinner came. Everything was delicious and the service was exceptional.“

“It's a nice little pizza shop for friends and family. The pizza isn't 100% NYC-style, but coming up from Raleigh, NC to visit peeps, it was close enough to enjoy a near real deal experience with a thin crispy crust, excellent mix of cheese, and a tangy sauce. The gluten free pizza order by one of our party was soupy, but tasty. Both lies needed another 60 seconds in the oven. Nice staff, just busy to the point I didn't get a needed drink refill. Still, I'd go back, and recommend it for a casual night out where catching up on conversation with old friends is on the menu.“

“fantastic food, great service.“

“I wish had taken a photo of the pizza before we devoured it. It was gorgeous and so tasty! I can see why there is a big trophy in their establishment for award-winning pizza. We were hoping to find somewhere to eat in. After driving around and having difficulty finding parking we were headed to McDonald's and saw the sign for Maggi's Pizza and Subs.There were many different choices of pizza selections or make your own. The subs menu looked good; I'll be back to get the Italian buffalo chicken sub. Desserts included large cookies, cake slices, cheesecake slices and others. The people were so friendly and they knew their left from their right :) It didn't take long at all to have our order ready. When we got home, my husband suggested leaving the review and he doesn't do that - so you know it had to be good! Stop in if you're ever in Damascus and visit Maggi's Pizza and Subs!“

“Shoutout to this favorite neighborhood restaurant, its good food, and always friendly team.👏👍👏👍“

“The food and service is amazing!! If you want to have a taste of homemade authentic Italian food. This is the place. From the appetizers, main dishes in the amazing desserts. Everything was absolutely incredible. We had impeccable service. Everything was so good. We’re going back a second time before we leave Maryland.“

“Great place to eat! Will definitely be back“

“I'm a regular at Angelo's almost every Tuesday during the fall middle school and spring high school softball seasons. I stop there between the game I umpire and teaching religious education around the corner at St. Patrick's. I will say that the quality at Angelo's is outstanding. I usually do a combination cheeseburger sub or steak and cheese. They are excellent. Plus, the fries are real fries that come out of the deep frier nice and crispy. I often will treat my religious education class to pizzas from Angelo's and they always tell me it's good pizza. Finally, they have Little Gina's pizzels. They're an Italian cookie my Italian mom would make and they are exactly like she would cook them. So, if you want some great pizza or sub plus some really crispy fries, I highly recommend Angelo's. Maybe I'll see you there some Tuesday!“

“Very well! Would come again, limit the amount of food you can take because I have to bring some home lmao! Other than that, service was really really good. Food was excellent, it was better than most pizza places. There's a variety of food, even soup! The atmosphere was really calm since there wasn't a bundle of people. Which there should be a lot?? Because this place was excellent. Jaun was really well, the service he gave out was insanely good! Props to him give him a raise. Only spent 40 DOLLARS in 3 people for 4 dishes! Really recommend, also the songs hits. RECOMMENDED PLEASE THIS PLACE NEEDS MORE ATTENTION.“

“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.“

“Inferno Pizzeria Napoletana exceeded my expectations. The pizza was flavorful and beautifully presented, with attention to detail in every bite. The staff was courteous and provided excellent service, always making sure we were taken care of. The atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant, creating the perfect setting for an enjoyable evening. I’ll definitely be returning and would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Went and tried the Italian sub and the meatball today.Absolutely delicious and fresh!“

“We’ve been coming to milanos for the last few years and always had a good experience with them. Monday we asked them to make us 50 pizzas for an event and they really got everything done within the time frame we had talked about. Thank you and all your staff for the great work and great pizza“

“We just got into town and first stop we ordered a cauliflower crust pizza and a LIFO salad. We went shopping at the Giant as they made our dinner. We decided to eat there and they provided plates and silverware. The pizza was as good as always with plenty of toppings and the salad was delicious and a very big portion. The next day we chopped the leftover salad and added garbanzos and black olives and enjoyed it again. I had leftover pizza for 2 breakfasts. Really friendly people and really good food. Lots of parking in the lot.“

“I've been coming to this place for 4 years now, their service and food quality is what made me one of their loyal customers. I have been recommending them to friends and family since.
Thanks for the great service Pizza Boli's of Germantown.“

“Clarksburg has Manhattan Pizza which has great pizza and much more. Both the Reuben and the Islander were super delicious. Onion Rings were great. Lays Chips were flat in taste. A bust. The Tiramisu made us very happy, easily one of the best. We will see you again soon.“

“Absolutely love their food and the samosas are to die for!!“

“We were visiting from Australia with some American family and enjoyed the pizzas,, they were very tasty. We did stay past closing time and while the staff were probably keen to close the store they were patient and polite and didn’t ask us to hurry, which we appreciated very much 😊“

“I was looking for a pizza place that was different than the “usual chain” places and found Ledo’s and man was I blown away! The pizza here is absolutely phenomenal! The crust is unlike anything I’ve had before (I love the squared style), the toppings are super fresh, and put on the pizza in abundance (I’ve never felt shorted on toppings), the sauce is good, not to salty or anything, and the cheese they use on the pizza’s is real cheese!! The service here is always good as well! If you’re looking for great quality pizza definitely check out Ledo Pizza!“

“We got takeout and got a hot honey Stromboli, a fettuccine Alfredo, and a cheese steak. Everything was really good! We didn't really taste hot honey in the Stromboli, but it was still delicious. I'm not sure if it's standard, but I do wish it was a little larger. The wait was long (45 mins), but on a Saturday night, it's to be expected.
Overall, I'd recommend this Ledos!“
