What a beautiful restaurant! A nice large bar/lounge area that
is so inviting with the friendly bar staff, that you almost feel
like you are missing part of the experience by going to your table
right away!
It's a comfortable dining room where there is a buzz! Local business/casual
types, and I spotted a Congressman who seemed to come there alot.
I see why - the food is great! The pasta dishes were prepared fresh
with great sauces and hearty portions. The ceasar salads also
taste like it was whipped up seconds before I ordered it! The fried
calamari appetizer was lightly coated and fresh - not overcooked
or chewy. Never had it better! The linguini and clam sauce was
perfectly seasoned with garlic and white wine...mmmm!
I can't wait to go back!

What a great find! In a cozy neighborhood area of Capitol Hill,
away from the crowds, this comfortable quiet, yet airy restaurant
with life trees reaching up to the skylight boasts some of the
best pasta, veal, and seafood italian dishes I've tasted! Reasonable
prices were an unexpected surprise when walking into such a fine
restaurant with linen tablecloths and napkins and top notch
service! It made it easy to keep going back regularly - and most
patrons are regulars - the staff knew many by name.
The fresh rolls and generous dinner portions make it difficult
to save room for dessert - but do! The tartuffo and tirmisu can't
be beat! Along with an espresso or amaretto, they top off such
a nice evening.
I heard the Sunday brunch is great with a Southern touch - the owner
is from the South!
