“On vacation from RI, my husband and I and very good friends had lunch at Lily’s just this past week and we fully enjoyed experience! It was a beautiful sunny day, and we were greeted with sunny faces and a friendly, highly professional staff. We sat in the outdoor area and everything from being there to fill our water glasses and explaining the menu was covered. I highly recommend Lily’s if not just for the fact that we felt like we were at home but to top it off, the food was delicious. Try the Tropical salad and the meatball appetizer!!“

“One of the best meals of my life. We got five different dishes, and each was different, unique, and delicious. The half chicken in particular had the whole table talking.
The service was funny, polite, and amazing. They didnt seem to be around, but the second we needed some thing they were there.
We will be back!“

“Very good food! Especially loved the fairytale eggplant and the corn ravioli special, but the portions are small. Not unlike many other fancy restaurants but I will say I was surprised when the ravioli entree came out with only 6 small ravioli (it was $33). That being said it was delicious but cmon corn, peppers, and ravioli are not expensive ingredients. It was quite loud in there which is why I’m docking a point on atmosphere (they should really put some foam on the ceiling to help muffle noise). Our waitress was super nice and everything came out at a great pacing. I would go back but know it’s a special occasion kind of place and wouldn’t go starving bec you’d need to order wayyyy more food.“

“Checks all the boxes as they say, Beliseima! Mangiamo! Salute!“

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

“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.“

“We went to hear the band and try the cuisine. The band (Ambience) and the food were excellent!“

“My first time at this restaurant for a fabulous shared birthday party. It was amazing. Not only the party and the staff, but the cuisine! ❤️ The appetizers (some of the freshest, delecate, perfectly prepared calamari), desserts (all amazing), main dishes (I had the salmon...yum!), but that salad dressing!!! It is the most delicious, freshest of flavors! Many of us purchased a bottle to bring home (I live in another state) and enjoy it immensely. i wished I lived nearby. I highly recommend this amazing place!“

“We visited for a celebratory lunch today, and Ryan took wonderful care of us! We ordered the focaccia appetizer, one Caesar salad (which we shared), and we each ordered the half-size Fusilli Bolognese. All items were outstanding and Ryan gave us some extra touches to make our event special. We’ll be back for our next celebration!“

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

“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 love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friend's home. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The branzino was amazing, and the chocolate gelato was refreshing. The personnel are professional, helpful, and kind, making you feel in a familiar ambiance. Service was well-timed and friendly; wines were affordable. I will add it to my list of favorite restaurants.“

“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 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!“

“Was nearby for a doctors appointment and stopped in with my daughter. We had one special cheesesteak with everything on it. Food was fantastic and staff were very kind and courteous. I would absolutely be back next time I’m in the area.“

“We had a food tour with Jacob in Georgetown on May 24,2024. He was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us a great tour with some good history tidbits as well. The food was delicious as well. It’s a great way to spend a few hours walking, talking, learning, and eating. Highly recommend“

“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.“

“Terrific pizza!. Staff were wonderful. Definitely recommend. We will be going back!“

“We had a great dinner on our way to Charlottesville… 👍. Thank you.“

“I live in the neighborhood and Sal’s is absolutely a godsend. We probably either eat in or carry out 3 to 4 times a month. The food is consistently first rate. Dining in, the atmosphere is casual and convivial. Any neighborhood would be lucky to have a place that is of such consistent high-quality and as welcoming.“

“This a neighborhood gem. Great service. Excellent food. Everything is delicious.“

“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.“

“Been here a handful of times - every experience has been fantastic. Amazing seasonal food, perfect drinks, atmosphere is incredible. Its everything you want your neighborhood Italian spot to be. I also love the marble tables and glassware. It’s really fun to sit outside with a drink while you wait for a table.“

“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!“

“First time eating here and I am in love. I decided to get chicken piccata, my favorite dish, because I'm always on the lookout for a good one. I am always disappointed by other restaurants because there's never enough sauce, cappers, no seasoning or over salted. Not here. There was a good amount of sauce, a lot of capers, good amount of chicken. The plate was huge!!! For 27 dollars including a drink and garlic knots thus was highly worth it. And the garlic bread that came with the pasta has real garlic on it. Chefs kiss. Coming back again and next time bringing friends. This place puts other pizza and italian places to shame.“

“Best place to dine in . Also the best place in Adam Morgan Washington DC.“

“Outstanding cuisine and service! My family and I always enjoy dining here. If you are ever in the area please do yourself a favor and stop in for a wonderful meal. You’re welcome!“

“southern and northern Italian specialty foods. Chef Ettore the best!“

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

“WHAT?! I'm from northern Jersey/NY area where pizza is a religion. I stumbled upon this absolute gem entirely accidentally and have not stopped talking about it. This place serves DELICIOUS pizza. Beautiful crust that stands up (minimal flop), delicious sauce, cheese is spot on. It's the little things that count and this place does some serious pizza. Highly recommended.“

“Best Italian in Washington, D.C. and perfect location if taking the metro. Get off at friendship heights and your right across the street from this jewel of a place“

“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 .“

“Warm and casual atmosphere.“

“Went during the week for lunch. The cannolis were authentic and out of this world I will return just for this. The spaghetti and meatballs in an olive oil butter sauce were fabulous. The chicken marsala was good, but very salty for my taste. The waiter was fabulous. Fabulous. Fabulous service. The restaurant itself is in a strip mall so if you’re looking for ambience, this is not the place but if you want good Italian food, this is where you go.“

“The pizza was really good - fresh and tasty. However, I was disappointed with the lamb dishes. The texture felt more like ground meat mixed with soy or fillers, and it didn’t have the typical lamb flavor at all. It didn’t even smell like lamb.“

“Still smiling after an unforgettable birthday dinner at Trattoria Sorrento in Bethesda! Celebrated with my family—and the 3 generations of family behind the scenes who crafted one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The veal ravioli bolognese was out of this world—homemade, heartfelt, and absolutely delicious. Huge thanks to the Trattoria Sorrento family for making it so special. If you’re looking for authentic Italian with real soul, this is the spot. Grateful for the food, the warmth, and the memories. 🇮🇹🍷🎉 #TrattoriaSorrento #BethesdaEats #ItalianFoodLove #BirthdayDinnerDoneRight #FamilyTradition #VealRavioliDreams“
