We got a reservation ahead of time but when we arrived have to wait 40 minutes and were sent back and forth between the restaurant and the “pizza bar”. The only reason we stayed was the reservation having a card on hold and essentially already having money tied to it. The atmosphere was raucous and unpleasant. On the resteraunt side they featured a DJ that I was heard asked to turn the music down twice by guests. I’ve read multiple other reviews online that confirm this is a consistent issue. Not only was the volume too loud, the music just doesn’t fit the atmosphere established. Eventually we were sat on the pizza bar side at a split table that another couple was sat at Midway through our meal. Ordering was fine and our server was quick, attentive, and pleasant though sparsely seen. When the food arrived my pizza was excellent, genuinely no complaints. My partner got the Alfredo with roasted chicken for a $12 upcharge. The chicken that came out was not just bland but completely unseasoned. Likewise, the Alfredo sauce was lacking in flavor depth. The pasta texture was gummy , I didn’t like it but my partner said she actually liked the noodles. She also had a drink which was small but good.

Wow, absolutely delicious! We were traveling with a group and searching for a great Italian spot, and this place kept coming up. I’m so glad we gave it a try. I had the chicken parm and it was fantastic, especially the sauce. Everyone in our group really enjoyed their meal as well. One tip: if you’re dining in, try to sit in the back dining room rather than the front, as it can be a bit loud up there. Definitely on my list to visit again.

My family and I had appetizers, dinner, and desert here. Everything we had was great. We would recommend the calamari- it was so good, we ordered another! It comes with a phenomenal garlic sauce & a unique red sauce. We also got the Beef Carpaccio, it was small, but had great flavor. For dinner we all loved the Drunken Love Pizza, it was amazing! We also had the Sunday Sauce pasta & enjoyed the two different meats in it. Two others got the chicken Parmesan and really liked it. If you are in the area and want some amazing Italian food, definitely go here. We learned they make home made pasta and pizza dough daily. We had to sit at the bar because it was the only seating available – we tried making a reservation but they weren’t answering the phone. Definitely try to make a reservation in advance, because it was packed! So good, if we are back in DC we will absolutely eat here again.

The drunken love pizza and caesar salad were delicious! Really friendly and helpful staff, though the service was slow for things like filling water glasses, getting plates and menus… The tiramisu was an amazing way to end the meal. Would recommend stopping by if you are in the area!

I decided to try this place because some girl on TikTok was raving about the spicy vodka pasta with shrimp, which was the only thing I ordered for pick up to go. First of all, this place doesn’t take orders online or by the phone so you have to go into the restaurant to order and then wait for the order before they bring it to you, which was sort of annoying but whatever. That spicy vodka pasta dish ended up being almost $30 because they charge $8 to add the shrimp. I thought that was pricey but the food must be super worth it. I get the pasta and there is only like four small pieces of shrimp and the pasta and sauce weren’t even that good. Extremely mediocre. Then there’s a 4% surcharge on all orders, despite if you’re dining in or getting the food to go, plus taxes, so the total cost for that one small dish to go (no tip) was $40, which I think is insane.

Moral of the story is to not get their food to go, and maybe the food tastes better if you dine in, but I have a hard time believing that. This place is incredibly overpriced for very, very mediocre Italian food. Definitely go somewhere else!

My family and I visited the restaurant last night for my birthday. It was a party of 7. Upon entry, the host asked if it was someone’s birthday and commented how they make a “big deal” about birthdays. The waiter took drink and appetizer orders but forgot to take one persons order who was at the end of the table. The apps and drinks came out very fast. When entrees arrived, some were missing food and had to wave the waiter down to remind him. I enjoyed my vodka sauce with chicken but some family members did not like their Alfredo. We did not get checked on after the food was delivered and needed to ask another waiter for another round of drinks and more water. The restaurant charges a “large party” fee of 20% which ended up being $108 which is why I believe the waiter did not come to check on us. As first timers, we did not enjoy the service and it did not correlate with online reviews.

Food was absolutely great …full of flavour and really well prepared. The atmosphere was electric, with a lively energy that made the whole experience even better. Our server was fantastic: friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout the meal, making sure we were topped up with water.

The only slightly odd note was the dessert, which felt a bit random compared to the rest of the menu. Still enjoyable, just not as strong as the main courses.

Overall, a brilliant visit and definitely worth trying!

First time here and I really enjoyed it! I got the Caesar salad, calamari, and the Drunken Love pizza, everything was delicious. The pizza was definitely my favorite, especially paired with the garlic sauce that came with the calamari. The vibe was great and everything tasted super fresh. My only small wish is that the salad had a bit more dressing. Overall, definitely worth a visit!

Easy to get to with covered outdoor seating.
Indoor seating is so loud that our table of 6 could not have a normal conversation. Lighting was so dark we had to use flashlights to read menue. Our server was amazing and the food was really good, BUT between the level of noise and the lack of adequate lighting is ridiculous. Until this change, save your money.

One of the best ceasar salads and Vodka sauce pastas I’ve ever had. Boyfriend loved his drink and chicken parm. Bartenders were great. Hope to be back soon!
