Italian Cafe offers a unique, family-run atmosphere and good prices on its food. The linguine and clams, lasagna, shrimp scampi, and stuffed veal with Italian ham and cheese are all praised for their quality and taste. The wine selection is small but offers generous pours. Fried calamari and canoli are also highly recommended. Customers consistently enjoy the food, noting that no matter what they order—such as salmon, pizza, veal, spaghetti, chicken cutlet, or stuffed shells—the dishes are always excellent and the service remains friendly and consistent. The house dressing is still delicious after all these years. Visitors often mention the cozy atmosphere and find the place to be a wonderful spot for pizza and other Italian favorites. Many say it’s their go-to place whenever they are in or near DC, appreciating the incredible food, welcoming environment, and great service.
