   We researched this place before hand and everything looked promising. Upon arrival, the place looked nice and near the White House for a post-dinner stroll. However, the service was really poor (e.g., we were served our meals but only offered cheese or red pepper flakes ten minute in; drinks were slow to arrive) and the food was mediocre (e.g., appetizers were barley warm, salads and food was generally over seasoned). Probably won’t go back.

   First time to this new restaurant and highly recommend Il Piatto. Service was stellar but best of all the food was authentic home style. Great red sauce. Everyone’s dish was clean by end of the meal. Good value. Nice option in an area of such high priced restaurants

   The server was very abrupt and would cut us off when we asked questions. She also would grab our plates away the minute we were done while others were still eating.

    Start to finish a lovely experience. Service was pleasant and prompt, food was delicious and very reasonably priced, and the atmosphere was upscale but not stuffy. The food was the highlight. We had the meatballs appetizer, fettuccine bolognese, seafood pasta and several deserts - everything was delicious.

    Brought my friend for her birthday and we both love it. We started with a round of cocktails. Then we had the Arancini and Caesar for our appetizers which were so good esp the arancini - yummsssss. Then we got the veal - perfection. And the rigatoni alla Juliana which was so good with just right amount of creaminess. Service was good too however needs a bit of improvement. Our server was nice. Overall, it was great. me and my friend had a great time. Kudos to Chef Lina and Juliana and their whole team. Cheers.

    Everything was excellent. The food was amazing! The best Italian restraint we’ve been too in a very long time. The wine list was comprehensive and offered a lot of choice and cocktails were great too, especially the Limoncello. The staff were all extremely helpful, polite, and not overbearing. We will definitely go back and recommend them to anyone looking for a great dining experience.

    First time visiting Il Piatto. Nice place. Met quickly at door by staff and wisked directly to our waiting table Our server Tiffany was immediately at our table to greet us and get us settled. We allowed our server to select the appetizers for our table of 4 We were brought calamari, meatballs and arancini. The meatballs were moist and cooked perfectly, the Arancini seasoned well and just the right size We continued to the pasta round with gnocchi with Gorgonzola and pasta with mushroom sauce. Both very sublime…seasoned well not over done. Next round were entrees to share. The lamb chops tender cooked perfectly and delicious, even for those of us who are not huge lamb fans. Accompanied with chicken masala. Thin but not too thin and cooked just right so still very tender and juicy We each had a dessert, tiramisu, chocolate mousse, and seasonal ice creams. All delicious and followed with the home made limoncello. I cannot say enough about our dining experience here. Ambiance, service food all incredible enough to get me to write a review which I never do. Cudos to the GM Paul (who made it a point to come by and check on us multiple times), and his team for making an impromptu evening out with friends a great evening. We will definitely be back to this new gem

    Avoid. Horrible service. We were seated outside to wet patio chairs. Waiter openly complained about the tip he received from adjacent table, remarking "what is this?!" Waiter breezed by and used paper that was in bread basket of another table blew into my friend's face. Waiter insisted that we give whole order at once- drinks, appetizers and food. Thats not how its done. Waiter brought the wrong order to the table and admitted to "mispunching" on the computer. Nothing was done to make up for his mistakes. Waiter clears table then just brings check. He never asks if we need anything else like dessert. Not that we would want anything after such a horrible experience. He changes his clothes to basketball shorts, tube socks and crocs then comes back to the table to let us know his shift has ended and he's leaving. Extremely poor service.

    Food was great! Only thing was that our waitress only offered still or sparkling water. So we were forced into buying water until we realized others were offered tap which we would have been fine with.

    We love the space and decor. Our server, while sweet, was clearly new in the role and struggled with timing, recommendations etc. The food was great and authentic for the traditional dishes. The wine list needs some bulking up and variety, especially in premium whites, but we were able to find some bottles that worked. We would go back but more for a family dinner than a special occasion.

    Il Piatto has been one of our go to restaurants since it opened. The food is excellent, with ample selections for all tastes. Service is wonderful, whether you are dining at the bar or in the dining room. Manager Paul is a gracious host and always stops by to make sure everything is going well, which has been the case for us.

    Appetizers and food came all at the same time very quickly after we ordered so the main courses were not hot by the time we got to them. Food was nothing special and not worth the price. A server also brought us bread while we were waiting on the check, not noticing we had already finished our meal. The design and atmosphere of the outside and location are great. The food could use some work and more flavor.

    Great service and ambiance. Food looked great but left a little to be desired. Ordered four dishes, Chicken parmesan was great, I would definitely recommend it. The NY strip steak was sorta cold and not a good cut or flavor. Potatoes were saggy not roasted, I would skip it. Same with the chicken marsala, it needed more flavor. The bolognese was good as well. Service was A+. Cheesecake was kinda plain, but the Tiramisu was good.

    Service was great. In addition to our server, two other people came to check on us, which showed me that management wanted to make sure guests were well taken care of. The food was okay. Brunch for two including tip with no alcohol was $100. That’s a bit pricey considering what we got. The location is great and there’s outdoor seating, which is great.

    The food was ok. Perhaps they are working out kinks since the restaurant is very new. My mushroom pasta had practically no mushroom. The calamari appetizer was pretty decent. The patio was lovely but they need to plan for an entry/exit path for the inside tables. Our server - James - saved the day. He was pretty much working the entire patio on his own but had everyone covered, didn’t skip a beat and had a welcoming and friendly attitude.

    For having only been open 2 weeks (23 June 2022), Il Piatto is doing superbly. Server James was friendly, knowledgeable and overall great! The food was delicious, warm and timed perfectly. The spare ribs and white fish were excellent. The maltagliati funghi needed a little salt, but was good well. The outdoor patio was nice. Even though it had a lot of tables, it did not feel crowded. Amazing start!

    Maybe it’s too soon since opening of the restaurant but we all found the whole experience underwhelming. The service staff did a good job at seating people and serving us but it didn’t seem as they had much experience. The food was fine but nothing exceptional. I don’t think anyone in our party of 4 will be running back so soon.
