Our new favorite place in northern Virginia. The vibe is a mix of Italian restaurant meets Local bar meets wine shop. The wine selection is great. The menu is traditional and also has some nice varieties. The eggplant appetizer is fantastic- melts in your mouth and the flavors are perfect. With their bread and a glass of wine it was already filling. We couldn’t finish our entrees but both were very good . Best of l was the Staffa- especially the bartenders who made us feel like regulars. Definitely try it !

This was our first time trying this gem of this Italian restaurant and it is worth a repeat. We had a great waiter, nicknamed EZ, and he was super attentive, helpful with suggestions and made our experience great. They made everything a wonderful experience. Appetizer we ordered had Italian sausage, onions, cheese and tomatoes and is a great dish for people on a keto diet! Our dishes for our meal were Veal Marsala and Fettuccine with steak and shrimp. The pasta is made in house!. The meal was hot and not warm. I super enjoyed having it that way! They have a huge wine selection. This is a must try! We will be back. Sorry not to have a picture of the meals upon delivery to the table but we were hungry and it smelled wonderful.

First visit and had the fried mozzarella and pepperoni pizza. Both tasted delicious and especially loved their bread, it was nice and warm and absolutely scrumptious with the butter. The service was great and my whole family loved their food. Would definitely return!

We’ve officially found our new favorite hangout in Northern Virginia! This place has a seriously unique vibe—it’s the perfect blend of a cozy Italian eatery, a welcoming local bar, and a well-stocked wine shop. Naturally, the wine selection is superb. The menu offers a great mix of comforting traditional dishes alongside some exciting variations. You have to try the eggplant appetizer; it literally melts in your mouth, and the flavors are absolutely spot-on. Paired with their fresh bread and a glass of wine, it was almost a meal in itself! Even though we couldn’t finish our entrees, they were both very good. But honestly, the highlight was the staff, especially the bartenders—they made us feel like instant regulars. Definitely give this place a try!

We just discovered this incredible Italian restaurant, and it is absolutely worth a repeat visit! We were lucky enough to have EZ as our waiter; he was super attentive, incredibly helpful with suggestions, and truly made the entire experience great.
The food was phenomenal. We started with an appetizer featuring Italian sausage, onions, cheese, and tomatoes—a great, flavorful dish (and perfect for anyone on a keto diet!). For the main course, we had the Veal Marsala and the Fettuccine with steak and shrimp. Knowing the pasta is made in house made it even better! Crucially, the meal was served piping hot, not just warm, which we super appreciated. They also boast a huge wine selection. This is a must-try gem, and we will absolutely be back! (Apologies, we dove right in because it smelled too wonderful for photos!)

My wife and I went on an impromptu date night. We saw the reviews for this place and figured we would try it out. We were not disappointed. Our server, Jerry, was top notch. He was very knowledgeable about the menu AND also made “off the menu” recommendations. The food was delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The pasta was cooked perfectly. The salmon, also perfect.
The food was so good, that I actually ordered desert (which I don’t usually do). Tiramisu was probably one of the best I have had. And the price!! We will definitely be back.

For almost 25$ for a plate, their food should at least taste good. I got a very bland sphaghetti and meatball with what felt like no taste, and it had ZERO no salt whatsoever. The bread was okay. i would put a lower rating but i feel kinda bad doing so. Maybe it was my bad luck and just my plate was off today.
