“Food was fabulous. Our table had the pizza, gnocchi and a seafood dish. All were spectacular. The service was awesome. Will definitely come back.“

“The pizza and appetizers were delicious. Will be back soon to try different menu items. Customer service was great 👍“

“I had the Arancini, gnocchi sardi, and olive oil cake and they were all fantastic. And while I came for food, I will say the two things I'll remember the most were 1. The fact you gave postcard with the receipt as a souvenir and one less thing I'd have to buy on my trip and 2. The service was amazing. I forget what her name is now, but my waitress came over and cleaned off the table of the two or three crumbs of truffle I had and got me new silverware for the second course. I can't think of any other restaurant I've been to where I've had service that attentive before.“

“My husband and I absolutely LOVE the Italian Pasta Shop. We look forward to it every week when we go to the Olney Farmers Market. Luca and his father are the best and make incredible Italian dishes. Our favorite is the Genovese rigatoni, it's such yummy comfort food!“

“Gigi’s is one of my absolute favorite spots in Western Market. The pasta is made fresh to order, and you can actually watch them finish it in the pan — it feels like a little chef’s table moment. The radiatore with amatriciana is my go-to. The sauce is rich and perfectly balanced, and the radiatore shape holds the sauce better than anything else I’ve tried.

I always add the veggie topping and extra cheese. The vegetables are fresh, colorful, and add the perfect contrast to the richness of the sauce — it never feels like an afterthought. Portions are generous without being heavy, and everything is consistently good every time I come.

One of the biggest perks for me is the timing: my order usually comes out in about 5 minutes, which is a lifesaver because I’m almost always there with two hungry, picky kids under 10. It’s fast, but still feels like fine dining.

The atmosphere has a modern, slightly upscale feel for a fast-casual place, and the staff is always friendly even when it’s busy.

If you love high-quality, freshly made pasta, Gigi’s is a must.“

“Thank you so much to Martha, Tom, Jason, Sarah, and the entire team who made my gathering at Alta today so special!! Martha really went above and beyond by arranging to have the surprise decor, balloon bouquet, and party favors for my guests and me! I was so overwhelmed by her thoughtfulness.“

“Fabulous staff, delicious food, spot on cocktails (amazing negronis) not to mention wine special.“

“Vocellis is always and consistently great, the pizza is fast and very high quality, the brief experiences with the employees at this location have always been very nice and considerate, leading to quick and convenient ordering. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone local or visiting. Hopefully this place is here for the long run!“

“Ordered Korean spicy Noodle soup with side order bread, soup was the BOMB, on the other hand with the bread was sliced“

“New Mosaic location just opened and it’s great. The pizza is fantastic, actually cooked with some nice crisp and char like the northern pizza snob in me likes. I also had a chicken parm sub that was fantastic. Haven’t tried the cold subs yet but there’s always tomorrow hah. The location is great on the bend of District Ave looking out down the street and they smartly installed a retractable front wall that can be opened for open air on nice days/evenings (or if Covid decides to play some more games here in the future). Also some select patio seating which is nice as well!“

“Love this place! Friendliest staff!!!“

“Great experience! We had a big group and they forgot to make one of the meals, but they had it straightened in minutes with piping hot food. They gave use a complimentary cookie for waiting. Then they came and checked on us after to make sure we had everything we needed.“

“Totally awesome place, good,and great staff. Totally recommend 😘😘😘😘😘👋👋👋👋👋“

“I like this place. The noodles are solidly good. Zero complaints. The staff are generally nice, which is not always true of fast casual places. I've liked everything I've gotten there: pesto zoodles, pesto cavatappi, Japanese pan, pad thai, penne rosa, fresca, Mac. I was surprised by the fat content, but maybe that's why they're so good ? I even like that they have Izze drinks“
