Filomena does not disappoint! Always perfectly cooked pasta, chicken and seafood. The place is already decorated for Christmas which makes it quite an experience with a polar bear dressed in his best and Santa not to mention all the streamers and stuff hanging from the ceiling. No place like it. Only downside is they fill the place up and it gets tight and warm down in that basement. A must for any trip to DC and Georgetown!

We always enjoy eating at Funck’s. Our service was great. The food was very good. I just wish the lobster tacos came with a side of something. Tortilla chips would have been great to add some crunch and interest.
