Cafe Italia - ArlingtonLove their customersRead the reviews online so decided this was worth trying. It is packed between other restaurants, and I was unsure we had chosen wisely. Well, we felt like we found new friends as the service was beyond wonderful. They loved us but didn't hover. Our food was beyond delicious. It is kind of old fashioned American idea of Italian style, but with a kind of modern level of freshness and excellence. When the bruschettas arrived, for instance, I thought, oh dear, because they didn't look special. But oh my, they were so amazing in taste. So come for the neighborhood feel, the kind wait staff, and the superb food.6/4/2013 12:00:00 AMSurprisingly reasonable pricesSurprisingly reasonable prices for Crystal City. Good portion size.
