Trattoria da Lina

Fantastic food and service. Mike was awesome great personality and friendly. Knew the wine list well and recommended a fantastic Italian wine. Pasta was excellent definitely homemade. My wife had branzino and it was cooked to perfection. Desert was great loved the hazelnut chocolate cake. Everyone in the restaurant was very friendly. Thanks for such a great authentic dinner.

Small family owned restaurant. Good food food service. The short ribs are excellent and the pasta is definitely homemade.

My first time eating Italian food. Great place to explore my first ltalian. It was a great experience for me.

Such a charming place. I would certainly go back. An old school Italian restaurant with the matriarch of family doing the cooking. It was great. She came out and spoke with us (with an interpreter) as she only speaks Italian. We wanted to tell her how good our meals were. The bar area is small and quaint with a welcoming neighborhood vibe. Our bartender
(owner??) was super friendly and had great stories. The place must be doing something right...When we left every table was full. It was a Wednesday night.

This is one of the best Italian restaurants I've ever eaten in.. It's not too big and not too small. The ambiance is wonderful and the food is spectacular.

We had a reservation for 7 on Christmas Eve and we were seated immediately and had a wonderful waitress. The food came out quickly, the drinks were great. All around, it was a great experience. So, if you're ever in the Takoma Park area or even if you're not, you should try this place out if you're looking for an excellent Italian restaurant.
