- AAnn MarieWashington, D.C. Area •38 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoLove Filomena Ristorante! It is our “go-to” for special occasion dinners. They offer more than just a meal—they deliver an experience steeped in tradition, warmth, and culinary excellence. From the moment you step inside, the old-world charm envelops you. The Christmas décor is beautiful and sets a nice festive ambiance for the holidays. We started our meal with the Wagyu Beef Carpaccio, the Crab Purse and Meatballs (a must have on each visit). All were delicious and we would not hesitate to order again. The main courses were equally spectacular—the Linguini Cardinale, loaded with fresh seafood and a decadent cream sauce, is a masterpiece, the Veal Chop, which melts in your mouth, and the Tortelloni Di Michele, a luscious brisket stuffed pillow with a wonderful mushroom sauce. We highly recommend all three of these dishes. The perfect end to such a delicious meal is any of their exceptional desserts.The Filomena Cannoli is a showstopper, as is any of their cheesecakes or the Tres Leches cake. Pair it with a robust espresso or enjoy with the provided Sambuca or Amaretto. The service at Filomena is second to none. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest feels like family. Whether it’s a romantic evening, a celebratory dinner, or just a casual night out, they make every moment special.More infoFilomena RistorantePrice: Expensive• Italian• Georgetown•4.8

- SStephenWashington, D.C. Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoCute restaurant in a subterranean location. The staff are very friendly and make you feel at home quickly. We enjoyed our server, Nala and the manager/owner, Enrique, once again. Enrique is such a warm and fun people person too and goes out of his way to make sure you are happy with your dining experience. The food is excellent, from the light and crisp calamari with a delicious marinara sauce to dunk them in; our wonderful pasta dishes, one with a mushroom cream sauce and the other a fine melody of seafood, pasta, and broth; and finally two delicious desserts. Everything tastes delicious and fresh and the coffee was warm and tasty too. Can’t wait to go back!More infoGiovanni's TrattuPrice: Moderate• Italian• Dupont Circle•4.6
