Timpano Italian Chophouse - RockvilleLovely CelebrationThis is my wife's favorite place to dine, and it a always adds to a special evening -- this time her birthday!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had dinner reservationsWe had dinner reservations and were greeted with smiles and enthusiasm. The food was great and our server was very attentive. This was a very wonderful dinning experience.4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMMarvelous MusselsI can't say enough good things about the unbelievable roasted mussels. They are outstanding -- roasted to perfection and seasoned just right. They are served in a sizzling cast iron roasting pan set into a clever metal serving gizmo with a handy bowl underneath to discard the empty shells. A delicious arugala and watercress salad was the perfect accompaniment. And speaking of accompaniments, the lounge band that was there on the night we visited (we heard they're there Mon-Wed nights from 6:30 or 7 on) was a treat. The female vocalist has a gorgeous voice and a great repertoire of just right music! This was our first visit to Timpano and we look forward to many happy returns!4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMBeautiful restaurant, withBeautiful restaurant, with a romantic feel.

The service was impeccable and I recommend asking for John. Everyone enjoyed the flatbread appetizer and ciabatta rolls so much that it was tough not to fill up before our entrees arrived. Everyone in our party of 5 ordered a different dish, which was nice b/c everyone enjoyed their meal. I had one of the best spinach side dishes ever and my bone-in rib eye steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare. So delicious! If you're OK with crowded, lively dining rooms and live jazzy music, you'll enjoy your experience at Timpano!3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMA preferred location for lunchA preferred location for lunch when in the Rockville area.
