“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!“

“😊🌟 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 🙏“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Always enjoy Ledo’s! My favorite for many, many years?“

“Solid pizza spot! I was nervous by some of the reviews and the mention of food being cold or not well made but I was pleasantly surprised! I got a Margherita pizza and it was done well. I’d like to try other items on their menu but for my first time it was really good!“

“The best pizza since 1975!!! I lived by the first Armand’s in Tenleytown, DC (which closed) and I came for the pizza I love and have missed!🎉🍕❤️ So happy to see the old sign here!❤️“

“Got into town on business at 7pm. Was hungry and wanted something quick. Found this place and was unsure. Slices later at night 2hrs before closing?
I walk in and order. I get my slices and they look tremendous. I’m checking out the place and notice Pittsburgh memorabilia on the walls. I find a framed article that the owners are former Pittsburghers. Now I know why the pizza was so good. They are modeled after the famous Aiellos in Pittsburgh. One of the holy trinity of pizza in the burg.
This place says they have been open for 20+yrs in the area. Let me tell you this late night, open for years and the pizza did Aiellos justice. Great work. I visit often for work and will definitely return. Love it when Pittsburghers spread their wings and thrive. Amazing!“
