We loved it here! The Italian dining experience you've always dreamed of: a boisterous host greeted us warmly and loudly and when we sheepishly admitted we didn't have a reservation he responded with 'What's your name?! Now you do!' and showed us straight to our ideal seats at the bar. The servers were exceptional, the service excellent, the ambiance enchanting, the food sooooo delicious. ? There was a live musician, friendly conversation all around and overall a beautiful Saturday...read full review
Great restaurant. Delicious authentic Italian food in a casual friendly atmosphere. Eating outside is a treat. Great wait staff and host.
The food here is absolutely wonderful, the staff are good but cheeky. When we went there were probably 30 people waiting to be seated. We made reservations and it still took a bit to get seated. The food was worth the wait. It was delicious. I had the Canaloni and it was superb. My wife and daughter had chicken Parmesean and chicken Alfredo. We each got a desert. I highly recommend the sfogliatella. It was absolutely delicious. The 3 of us with one appetizer, 3 main courses,...read full review

Nonna Luisa Ristorante offers an authentic atmosphere, unmatched food, and warm service. The restaurant serves thoughtful dishes made with high-quality ingredients, and the portions are generous. Outstanding specials are made daily by the family kitchen crew, including dishes like pork medallions Marsala, Cannelloni, and limoncello cream cake. The friendly and knowledgeable staff provide excellent service, creating a welcoming environment with a great mood and accordion entertainment that adds to the lively ambiance. Guests often celebrate special occasions here, enjoying a wonderful experience with delicious food and attentive service. Located a bit south, many visitors are willing to make a road trip for celebrations or destination dinners. The restaurant opens at 4:30 pm for dinner and is considered a must-visit for anyone in the area. This is as close as one can come in Washington to the feel of the many quality restaurants one experiences in Italy. It just has the feel of authenticity - crowded, noisy, wonderful food. The food was absolutely delicious and the servings were good sized! The people who work here are probably the biggest reason we will come back, but the people were so fun and friendly and genuine. The service is great but the traffic up and down main aisle is distracting. They kept trying to take my plate which I wasn't done with, annoying. Over zealous. I felt rushed which is never good. Very busy place locally owned by an Italian. Great wine list. Worth going back.
