I stopped in for a solo dinner and was not disappointed. The service was great. Very personable and intimate spot where everyone will greet you by name. The ambiance itself is a bit dated, but that’s part of the old school charm that I personally appreciated.
As for the food, I tried two specials of the day. The grilled cauliflower soup was absolutely delicious. The snapper was prepared well but it was a little cold by the time it was served, but the flavors were there. The laganelle, a simple but flavorful dish, was the highlight. The house-made pasta was razor thin but very flavorful, and the mushroom ragu was the right texture and consistency.
I will certainly be back to try other items on the menu.

This tiny place was full of charm. The food was excellent and the service was friendly. The fish was fresh and tasty. The truffle pasta was really good. Finally we had to try its namesake dessert-tiramisu, which was tasty without a strong coffee taste.

Dining at Al Tiramisu is truly a special experience. From the very first bite, you can taste the freshness of the natural ingredients and the care that goes into every dish. The flavors are authentic, balanced, and crafted with love, reminding me of home cooked Italian meals but elevated with a chef’s artistry.
What truly makes Al Tiramisu shine, however, is not just the food, it’s the people. The staff are welcoming, attentive, and treat you like family, ensuring that every visit feels personal and memorable. And then there’s Luigi, the owner, who is absolutely one of a kind. His warmth, passion, and genuine hospitality create an atmosphere that makes you feel not just like a guest, but like part of the Al Tiramisu family.
This is more than a restaurant. It’s a place filled with heart, tradition, and joy. I can’t recommend it enough!

A solid choice for Italian downtown near DuPont. The staff was very friendly and super helpful. The pasta Ala vongole was good. Both the tiramisu and the homemade panda cotta were very good. A pricy wine menu, but that’s to be expected. A quiet atmosphere for a nice lunch. Good for business lunches as well.

Great little Italian spot! Service was great and fun! Felt like family eating in the intimate interior. Fish was cooked well and the radish and gorgonzola cheese risotto was amazing! Burrarta and honey appetizer was very tasty. Was my first time on a recommendation of a friend and I’ll definitely be back!

Cozy and Delicious 🙂
I am from out of town and meeting a friend for a late dinner. I am so happy he picked Al Tiramisu. This is an unassuming storefront tucked tightly between 2 other establishments, but don’t let it dissuade you. The specials are hand crafted each night and are the way to go. I had linguine and meatballs which were a better version of those I make at home and my friend enjoyed the pea risotto which was a soft green color (mint green like a vintage vespa). Both dishes eased our thoughts of Monday morning as we dug in. We left with full stomachs ready for bed.

This longtime DC establishment continues to delight. The space is unassuming, but it has a special charm and elegance. There are no windows, making for a quiet intimacy that is rare in restaurants today. The Italian food is solid. My partner loved her deconstructed mushroom lasagna. My fresh grilled pompano fish was perfectly grilled and prepared. Al Tiramisu is not reinventing the wheel. They give you what you fundamentally want from a great Italian meal: excellent ingredients, assembled with economy, and prepared with precision. Well done!

The food was honestly good.
I just wanted to warn people that they tried to scheme us here. We paid for 6 higher priced meals, all got multiple drinks, even got deserts.
Then they come out with bottles of flavored liqueurs. We didn’t really want any but the server presented them as if they were on the house and asked everyone what they wanted. Was very pushy and many places offer these for free if you order desert, so we acquiesced.
In the end we see a $60+ charge on this stuff that tasted like cough syrup and nobody even drank. We didn’t want to completely stiff the wait staff but we did deduct out of the tip. Now I don’t know if the waiter did this on his own accord, but nonetheless it completely changed my take on this place. They should know better than this.
I just can’t stand for this kind of behavior so unfortunately I will leave a 1 star. If the owner wants to discuss I will modify my review. I understand margins might be squeezed but it’s just bad business to pull this crap on high paying customers on their first time in your restaurant, and it soured our night.

Wonderful atmosphere. Small restaurant with GREAT service. Loved the presentation of options. Wine was amazing! And the truffles?! OUT OF THIS WORLD!

Small restaurant with great food and service. Don’t take chances – make a reservation! Intimate atmosphere enhanced the experience.
Went for Valentine’s Day and it was packed. I had the ravioli special and my wife had the lamb. Both were excellent.
Had the calamari appetizer. Very unique and unlike any calamari dish I’ve ever had. It was amazing and worth a try!
Service was terrific. Seems like all mature staff and no “kids”. Old school feel.
It’s on the pricey side (my ravioli dish was over $40) but certainly a great place for a special night out.
