Went for happy hour on a Wednesday and it was pretty good. Enjoyed the cocktails but honestly they were nothing special considering it was "speakeasy night". Food was decent but the tacos were the best part which is odd considering it's an Italian restaurant. Bartender was attentive but not overly pleasant. Overall a 4 star experience mostly because of the solid prices for DC.
Pasta is great. Cant go wrong. The alfredo was amazing, the spicy pasta (amatre..) was very good very attentive service and nice ambience. Wines are reasonable priced.
We had a great time at Dino’s on Saturday night. Love the wine selection- all the basics and lots of fun choices like Lambrusco. Fresh truffles and excellent eggplant. Definitely going back.
The food here is really good, honestly. Best lobster pasta I've ever had. You're gonna pay for it, but it's worth it. Shaw is home to a fantastic Italian place.
Food here was good and the service was friendly and attentive. It was quiet on a Tuesday night, but I think it could pick up a bit toward weekends. Didn't have an opportunity to check out the bar downstairs, but the wine selection was nice and the meal was overall quite pleasant.
