The absolute worst service I’ve had. A broke plate happened at our table and we were the ONLY table sat inside and the entire staff heard the plate break. Nobody came over to check in. We picked up the glasses and threw it away and asked for someone to clean up the small pieces. Nobody arrive. The server came to deliver our drinks and leaned over the guest and the glass shattered. The glass flew everywhere. BEYOND slow to clean up that mess. Mind yon the plate glass is still on the flow. The server wasn’t mindful about cleaning and resetting the table afterwards. Things were forgotten and service was terrible. The napkins were all dirty we went through three different silverware rolls. Drinks were forgotten and staff was rude. We order dessert and for the ice cream they gave us the biggest spoon and had it appeared it was for the kitchen staff to toss a big bowl of salad. I’m not sure what was the energy or vibe that night but it was the worst easter dinner ever

Arrived during Happy Hour so ordered two apps from that menu plus cocktails. The arancini were good if small, and the sauce was mildly spicy. The tuna tartare was fine, though the tuna seemed a bit cooked, with a nice amount of avocado and finely chopped red onions. The tartare came with two small pieces of toasted bread, and when my husband asked for two more he was told that we could order a bread basket— I guess two pieces is all that’s allowed during happy hour. Our pasta dishes for our main meal were delicious-one of us had cavatapi (sp?) with sausage that was mildly spicy and delicious, and two of us had the linguini with shrimp and pancetta in vodka sauce— absolutely delectable to the last drop. All three of us ordered dessert and all three were delicious. Service was attentive with regular water refills etc. and a very pretty and efficient waitress.

Great food!! The meatball appetizer was delicious. We also ordered the Burrata Caprese and it was a small portion for the price. Highly suggest the Salmon; perfectly cooked atop a homey rich tomato vegetable sauce akin to ratatouille. Overall great dining experience!!

This was our first night in DC and we were excited to try your place. We are so glad we did. Such a cozy vibe. We ate outside which was so nice but also loved your little inside bar. What a gem. Food was delicious and service was very good as well. Thank you for a wonderful night.

Lack of service. Section was over sat. Of the two orders both were wrong, and no one came to ask. The party of 20 plus took priority and once seated we got little to no service.

Nice place. Amazing food and drinks. Unfortunately the service was very bad. Waiting more than 10 minutes just to order the drinks… the guy who’s doing the table setup had much better service than our waitress.

Excellent food and service. It was loud as in hearing other tables conversation. I didn’t mind it, as it creates the ambiance, but thought it would be good to mention

Very disappointing dinner. The place was incredibly loud. The service was haphazard and unprofessional and food was mediocre at best. There are much better options for Italian food in DC than this place.
