- AAlanVIPWashington, D.C. Area •9 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe recently dined at La Piquette and had a great experience. Our party of four was celebrating an anniversary and a birthday, and the afternoon couldn't have been more perfect. From the moment we walked in, the cozy, intimate setting created the ideal atmosphere for our special celebrations. We skipped the appetizers and ordered our entrees, which included Prime Beef Steak and Frites, Lobster Risotto, Halibut, and Sautéed Fresh NC Shrimp. Each dish was a perfect blend of flavors and textures, beautifully presented and perfectly cooked. It was evident that the chefs put a lot of passion and creativity into their culinary creations. The service was equally impressive. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, ensuring every detail of our dining experience was right. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable, adding a personal touch to our celebrations. And don’t overlook their desserts! They were the perfect ending to a perfect meal. The sweet treats were as delightful and creative as the main courses, leaving us thoroughly impressed and satisfied. Overall, La Piquette exceeded our expectations in every way. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience. The only thing that would make me hesitant to return again would be the 2+ hour ride up I95. No, on second thought, not even that would keep us from being repeat customers.More infoLa PiquettePrice: Expensive• French• Cleveland Park•4.8

- PPatrickVIPWashington, D.C. Area •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoClaudio's Table is an Italian restaurant in the Palisades neighborhood of Washington, DC at 5441 MacArthur Blvd. It is owned by the fantastic Chef Claudio Pirollo, who also owns the French-Belgian bistro Et Voila. Claudio's Table serves great Italian cuisine, including pasta, meat, fish and pizza. I have eaten almost everything on the menu and love it all. The restaurant also has a great wine list and cocktails. Claudio's is known for its lively and cozy atmosphere. It is a very popular spot for lunch and dinner. We like sitting at the bar where you get to talk with patrons from the neighborhood and get fantastic service. Additionally at the bar, you can catch a glimpse of Chefs Claudio and Stephane preparing exquisite dishes. The staff provides excellent service with charm. The food is delicious! Claudio's is a neighborhood gem! PatrickMore infoClaudio's TablePrice: Moderate• Italian• Palisades Northwest•4.7
- TTracyWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoCaruso's Grocery at Pike & Rose is consistently excellent. It's hard to find really good Italian food in the area, so we were thrilled to discover them. The calamari is some of the best we've had, and we've really enjoyed the pasta dishes and entrees that we've tried over several visits. Highly recommend!More infoCaruso's Grocery - Pike & RosePrice: Expensive• Italian• North Bethesda•4.5
- RRosemaryVIPBaltimore / Maryland •46 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis is the fifth or sixth time we've visited from Baltimore, MD and Et Voila just keeps getting better. We always order mussels, which are consistently sweet and well-sized. Love the onion soup and my husband is a huge fan of the goat cheese salad. Excellent service. The only quibble is the small tables! Merci for a lovely Valentine's Day lunch.More infoEt VoilaPrice: Expensive• French• Palisades Northwest•4.8
