Wonderful ambiance, tasteful and festive holiday decor (Easter) and efficient/friendly staff. Food was received quickly, was well=prepared, and quite enjoyable. We will definitely return again and look forward to the decor for the next holiday!
The restaurant was very nice and the service was excellent. The waiters were very polite and courteous and they were very good at catering to ones need
Amazing food and service as always. I liked the dividers in between tables and honestly want them to stay after the pandemic environment - it made it a little more intimate especially for a dinner for 2.
Amazing dinner and service.
All plates had the same sauce , food was bad. Super expensive .
Birthday dinner was fantastic. The decorations for Easter were a trip! We loved it.
Visiting from NYC, this restaurant came highly recommended.
Basement level dining room was a surprise, decor was circa 1985. Waiters were attentive and friendly but did not seem well-aquainted with true 'Italian cuisine'.
Dishes seemed rushed and drenched in heavy cream. Calamari Fritti could have done with an additional minute or two in the fryer and were slightly soggy, the spinach stuffed mushrooms were a creme-fest - as was the mushroom Ravioli and Fettuccini with Lobster.
If you would like a walk into the past into a 1980's American version of Italian fare with giant portions, this is your place.
Enjoy!
This restaurant came highly recommended as a staple in Georgetown. Hands down the best italian I have had outside of an Italian household. Portions are large and fresh. My lasagna is the size of the entire plate. Not a complaint I could think of.
Excellent food and service as always
We were delighted by the old school environment and the delicious food!
An excellent restaurant! Excellent service and excellent food.
Such a great place for our first date night post baby! The service is outstanding and the food was even better
We really enjoyed our experience at Filomena’s! Despite us arriving a little late after our reservation, Dino happily accommodated us and still was able to find a spot for us to dine! The service was phenomenal and food was excellent! Our waiter was very attentive as well. Definitely recommend!
Our whole experience was amazing. Our waiter Tony helped to pick our entrees and he was spot on based on our description of our tastes. We started with the fried calamari. Then we had the Easter specials: lamb chops (for me) and seafood risotto (for my boyfriend). Then we shared the mixed fruit cheesecake. Let me just say that we had such a great experience that we booked another reservation for next month while still in the restaurant.
Always a favorite when we travel to DC.
We had a lovely dinner due in great part to our server! He gave excellent suggestions for both food and drink and was attentive. Our dishes were exceptional. The burrata was our favorite.
Best Italian food in the DC area. The service was exceptional. The venue nostalgic.
Everything was amazing. The ambiance was superb, the service was beyond, abs the food was delicious!
What a wonderful first time experience! We were greeted by Dino, who made us feel very welcome with his warm and friendly personality! The service was top-notch and the food was delicious! We will definitely be back!!
The food is always incredible and the service at Filomena's is so wonderful and accommodating! Would recommend to anyone!
Excellent Service and Food was Delicious!! Would definitely go back!!
Amazing. Decor so fun and festive. Service wonderful from the host to the server. 10/10 on food.
Good waiter.
Simply the best service. Food is great. A bit on the pricey side of course, but I will be back.
Excellent food! Great customer service!
Location and restaurant settings great
Service good
That is all it is. Food is not worthy. I order a veal rib that looks more like a meat pizza with a bone and cover with tomato sauce and cheese. Terrible
My son had a lobster pasta and lobster where not well cooked and the pasta was not andente
The best there is.
Love it every time we go!!!
I have been to Filomena's many times over the years. This is the first time I thought the food pre-prepared.
Very nice for a quiet lunch. Food was great. Drinks good too.
Wonderful meal! Our server, Daniell, was fantastic and took very good care of our table. I have always enjoyed dining at Filomena's and plan to dine here each time I am in the city.
Food was delicious - portions too large though. Server was very helpful.
Filomena never disappoints. Service was excellent and the food is always wonderful. It is pricy, but worth it.
While the food was very good, the noise around our table made for a less then present experience. There were two families with little children that each had an electronic device with the volume turned on high. The parents and staff did nothing about it. they had the kids at one table and they sat at a table near by. It was not the most pleasant dining experience.
We had a wonderful time the weather was awesome and just so happen to be from where we lived
Hands down, the BEST food I’ve ever eaten!! Best service! Best ambience! BEST!!
Food is fresh. Portions are huge. 1 dish is easily enough for 2 people. Service is fantastic! Filomena's is a Georgetown staple.
Wow! We had a lobster pasta that was not to be believed. We will long remember our outstanding dinner. Service was also perfect. We will return!
Beautiful Easter decor. Friendly and attentive staff. A wonderful way to spend the evening.
felt somewhat isolated in cubby with protection screens....other customers were in less restricted settings...beauty of decor couldn't be fully appreciated
