Maria Cirincione: Definitely try the grilled octopus. We loved the rigatoni with fennel sausage ragu and the saffron zucca!! The Brussels sprouts were perfect and the maple and brown butter gelato sundae was awesome!
Tin Kadoic: Italian homemade food, great pasta, creative dessert. Go there when in DC. Also, Croatian and Slovenian wines. Orange wines. Chamomile grappas.

Tammy Gordon: I love the two course salad and pasta pairing for lunch by the river. Great escape from the work day! (The panzanella is amazing.)
Behrad Eats: They know how to work a grill here! So along with your pasta, get the Grigliata Mista: lamb chop, skirt steak, sausage, pancetta, and marinated peppers.
Brandon Cain: This place is truly a delight! Homemade pasta, excellent cheese patters, and amazing view. Gnocchi here is far the best choice on the menu.

Theo Bell: It's great dinner spot! Warm and cozy areas for both dining and meeting for a cocktail. The service is excellent from valet to the busboys. The food was amazing; I highly recommend the lobster ravioli
Isa Lara: Frozen negroni cocktail is the BEST summer drink. Tuna tartar is amazing, but the lobster ravioli are totally worth it. Even at $10 per raviolo. Amazing.
Elizaveta T.: Go with grilled calamari, lobster ravioli and share ricotta pancakes for dessert. Great service, awesome cuisine!
Shawn Scruggs: The brisket...the sausage...the mac and cheese...the bourbon...just a great place to eat and hear great music!

Jenna: Try the super tender fried chicken, mac 'n cheese and waffle dish. An unusual yet surprisingly deliciously harmonising combo. Comfort food at its finest.
Allison Kasic: Outstanding: butternut squash ravioli, corn bread, fried green tomatoes, chicken and waffles, and cocktails. Go to town.
Zach Hedrick: Just an all around unbelievable place. Any and I mean ANY appetizer you choose won't disappoint. Lobster Mac & Cheese and the salmon are to die for. Incredible drinks as well. Don't miss this place!
