Great Italian restaurant with large portions (recommend sharing the entrees). Rich sauces. Great desserts. We come here every time we’re in DC. A must-do.

Zaytinia impressed on all fronts. The chef's talent shines through in every dish - expect inventive flavor combinations that really work. Each plate was a delightful surprise, showcasing quality ingredients and skillful preparation. The staff struck a perfect balance - attentive and knowledgeable, yet warm and unpretentious. Their familiarity with the menu enhanced our dining experience. The ambiance is equally inviting - elegant without being stuffy. It's the kind of place where you can comfortably linger over a excellent meal and good conversation. Zaytinia offers a top-notch dining experience that's worth seeking out. Whether for a special occasion or a treat-yourself evening, it doesn't disappoint. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to explore more of their menu.

Delicious food but perhaps slightly over seasoned. Wife had steak fritas (?) and I had trout Parmesan. Generous portion of fish, steak less so but huge, too large portion of fries with her steak. Reservations are hard to get for peak times unless you book early. We enjoyed our meal and would go back again.

Our server Douglas was spectacular. The brunch buffet was delicious and plentiful with many options. Their cinnamon roll in a cast iron skillet was awesome. if you are sitting outside with the fountain or near a window, the ambience would be great. Deeper inside the restaurant the ambience was lesser. The brunch had many breakfast options and lunch options, fruit, salad, and dessert. I was surprised the brunch didn't include coffee, tea or juice, but it was only $5 more for any of those.
