“Solid Italian restaurant in DC.
Easy to get reservations, I went on a Friday night with a friend. We got the three course set menu. A lot of food for the price. Great quality and great options. Recommend coming hungry or ordering off the a la cart menu. Garlic knots are a must.
Lots of servers that were very attentive. Be careful, they’ll scoop up your plate if you’re not paying attention.
Wine and beer list was extensive.
Fair pricing for quality of food and atmosphere.
Would definitely recommend to a friend. Would definitely visit again.
Parking: No parking lot, not a lot of street parking. Had to park a few blocks away.
Kid-friendliness: I probably wouldn’t bring kids here, didn’t have kid friendly food.“

“I came here right when the restaurant opened and sat at the bar for the happy hour. Food came out quickly, love the bread a lot. We got the meatball, the grilled octopus with finger potatoes (please try this dish it’s so good). They also accommodated my request regarding the pasta, which was very nice of them. Tiramisu is good too. Would come back.“

“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.“

“Great place for a meal. The service is outstanding and the food is delicious. Some of the best pasta I've had in the US. Drinks are well balanced. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Wait staff is observant and prompt. Somehow this place works both for date night and family dinner (older children).“

“We went for the bottomless happy hour deal. For $36 (~$50 after tax and tip) you get unlimited drinks and some apps from 5-7.
Most places in DC don’t honor the true spirit of bottomless drinks but that is not the case here. Our server kept the drinks flowing and they were all delicious. So was the food.
10/10 experience, amazing bang for your buck, and overall an excellent way to kick off the weekend.“

“😊🌟 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 🙏“

“Such a superb dining experience. I was solo so sat at bar and my waiter went above and beyond with exceptional wine and food knowledge and service. The food was subtle, creative and beautifully balanced. Everything just worked. I find US restaurants rarely have ambiance but Tail Up had great lighting even if dining room was fine but unremarkable. It was a brilliant experience of a brilliant kitchen, sommelier and serving team. Thanks for a DC highlight“

“My friend and I went here for her birthday; however we didn’t mention it was for any occasion. We were immediately greeted by the host and seated. Throughout the meal, we were checked in on by our waiter as well as the manager. Towards the end of our meal, the manager overheard it was a birthday dinner and gave us a free dessert. Overall, the service, food and ambiance was amazing!“

“My entire family loves Charlie's! We've been 10+ times over the past year.
This is the best pizza joint in the area, hands down. It's better than the chain pizzas, and the atmosphere is great, and the staff are always kind.
We love getting the 2 large pizzas special with meatball toppings!“

“My friends and I always choose Capri for our birthday lunches and are never disappointed in the food and service. Today was no different. Five out of 6 of us had the Rockfish lunch special, and everyone loved it. One had chicken piccata and said it was excellent. Capri is my favorite McLean Italian Restaurant. I'm going again Saturday night!“

“Olazzo catered a recent birthday party for us. Everything about the experience was first rate. Scott Crivella was extremely helpful in finagling the menu. The food was delivered right on time and was ready to serve. Our guests were delighted with the chicken Marsala, mango salmon, penne marinara, antipasto platter and bruschetta. Everything was delicious and the servings were very generous. We were extremely pleased.“

“We've been getting takeout from Listrani's for a number of years. It's our go-to place for wonderful subs and pizza.Our favorite sub is the eggplant parmesan. We get it without the parm to avoid saturated fat, as much as we know the cheese would be delicious. We also get the pizza without cheese for the same reason. The sauce on both these things is superb as is the bread for the sub and dough and crust for the pizza.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I had a to go order of their eggplant parmigiana with spaghetti, and a side salad. The young gentleman at the pick up counter was so friendly and welcoming. The food was great! The spaghetti was the star (very tasty!), and the salad was pretty good as well as the eggplant parmigiana (a little more sauce would elevate it). They were extremely generous with portion size and the food easily was enough to make 2-3 meals. Price very reasonable too. Look forward to supporting Mama Lucia and frequenting this business more!“

“This pizza is just right every time for me! I consistently go here for that reason. The sauce is a little tang to it in my opinion, but tastes good. The cheese is good quality. They baked their pepperoni just right (which is usually my litmus test).
The customer service is always cool, I've never had a problem. Staff seems to enjoy themselves while they work, which is always nice to see. Its a clean establishment. Never too busy or backed up. It's my preferred pizza shop, even though I pass a Papa Johns, a Pizza Bolis, a Dominos, and a slew of others to get to this one. It's out of the way for me, but I feel it's worth it. Plus the specials they have are very reasonable in my opinion, comparable to Dominos.
And I like all the toppings I've tried here. Next time I'll post pictures.
Vegetarian options: It's a pizza place, so of course you can customize your pizza to be vegetarian. The same goes for the salads and sandwiches.“

“The shrimp scampi pasta was so good and the portion was a lot. I asked a waiter to bring 4 small plates for our appetizer, he said I’ll let your waiter know. He’s not our waiter , but I don’t see why he cannot bring the plates. Bad Service!!“

“The salad at $8.50 was overpriced. It had a quarter of a tomato, just a few onions, and hardly any other veggies. The bread was tasteless. It was served cold and the crust was too soft. The main course of linguine and clams was fine. The service was a little slow.“
