I seldom visit fine dining as I don't often see the value but this place is excellent. Marcos is the gold standard when it comes to service and not to mention the excellent food. Highly recommend for a pleasant dining experience with family.

My favorite Italian restaurant in old town. Landini’s is always clutch. Grey goose martini with blue cheese olives is a must!

I ordered the "Blackened" shrimp Alfredo. It tasted like the shrimp was boiled plain and tossed in Ragu sauce. The entire dish smelled like pasta water with zero seasonings. For $35, this is very disappointing. Marie Calendars taste better than this. My daughters easy bake oven pasta tastes better than this. I've had $5 Olive Garden pasta that tastes better than this & I could've got unlimited breadsticks that are better than this stale bread. I'll be telling everyone I know to not come to this poor establishment.

This restaurant was amazing, the service was even better. The calamari was cooked to perfection. I will definitely recommend and come back again if I have the chance. My wife had the barnzino which was perfect and amazing in every way!!!

This is a very nice place restaurant. A bit overpriced for half portions. I've been to 5 star restaurants all over the world that are worth the price. You don't leave hungry. Great service, nice locations, romantic atmosphere. Please get the price right or the portion. Most of your entrees are overpriced by 10 to 15 dollars. I spent 200 for 2. I'm should feel satisfied, not hungry.

Landini Brothers is our absolute favorite must visit restaurant when we're in the DC/Alexandria area. One member of our family has to eat gluten free and they are very accommodating and careful guaranteeing a safe and enjoyable meal for all. The food and ambiance are outstanding. The food is beautifully presented and the wait staff is extraordinary though this time the service was slightly slower than usual. Out primary waitress and all of the waitstaff are attentive and always very pleasant. We are already looking forward to our next visit.
Friday evening at one of our favorite spots! Landini Brothers never disappoints. We had Pablo as our server. He was outstanding. The noise level is always high , that's due to its popularity. Must make an advanced reservation.
We had a great dinner at Landini Brothers and we were trying to split a Caesar salad but we all got one and that was OK. At first we felt a little rushed but then things evened out portions are large and very good. It is a tad noisy, but a very popular place.

We've eaten at Landini many times. During the pandemic, we ordered carry-out meals here almost every week. This was our first time dining indoors since the pandemic began. Everything was as great as ever - fabulous food and cocktails, friendly service. There were two small problems - our server forgot to bring our appetizers, and the cocktails didn't arrive until after our entrees arrived. But we're chalking this up to our server being relatively new at the restaurant and still getting her sea legs, so to speak. We also wish the restaurant would bring back the bread it served before (for years) - the newer loaves are smaller and sliced as thin as crostini.
As always food is outstanding .. service was fair .. ask for bread 3 times / was hard to get refills ..by the time they came back to ask about dessert 30 min had past .. this is not the usual service. We get here was very surprised. And we will definitely go back. Everyone can have a bad day.

This has always been one of my favorite restaurants in Old Town. Simply fails to disappoint. Clams with linguine is my all time favorite. The garlic, spices, and primo olive oil make for a delicious choice. Only disappointment, and it was a minor one, the ahi tuna appetizer was bland. Good quality Ahi, and a lot of it, but somehow it missed the mark. Too full (and happy) for dessert.

I have been dining at Landini Brothers for over 40 years. In all that time I cannot remember a meal that was not excellent. I especially love the mussels marinara and dipping the crusty Italian bread in the fabulous red sauce. The lightly breaded Halibut special was perfect with angel hair pasta and broccoli rabe, Delicious. My companions had the short ribs, rich and flavorful; and the linguine with clam sauce a simple classic that is always great. How Landini Brothers has been so good for so long is a mystery but one I love solving again and again.
