From the reception I received when calling to tell them we were running 10 minutes late to the fabulous meal and outstanding service from Moogi, there hasn’t been a better night . The short ribs were excellent. Husband had the branzino and said it was excellent. Our friends had the rabbit and the pate. It was another fabulous night at La Piquette! Thanks.

La Tomate has become a favorite for the following reasons: - genuine Italian cuisine, expertly prepared and presented -- including all pastas house-made - professional, friendly waitstaff who provide attentive service with no annoying "hovering", constantly interrupting your conversation with tablemates and trying to be your new best friend - lovely atmostphere, lots of light with big windows (and shades for when sun is too much) - it's quiet enough, even when busy, to be able to actually have a conversation with your tablemates without shouting Four of us had dinner there yesterday evening and it didn't disappoint in any respect. So if you're looking for a restaurant that offers all of the above, you won't go wrong with La Tomate. And you will be supporting a local, family-owned and operated business as well.

Excellent(1001)

• American • Capitol Hill
Booked 29 times today
The food was quality, as was the servixe. The music for a Sunday brunch was way too loud. The crowd was vibrant and engaged in conversations, which made it hard to hear your own conversations at your table. With the music at an extremely high level, it made the outing unpleasant. I made eye contact with other patrons who also displayed wide eyes at the music decibel level, which increased as time went on.
