    Recommended by a chef at Capital Grille. We love the intimate, cozy, feeling. The friendly staff, and yummy food made this a hidden gem.

    We eat at Il Corso regularly, we live walking distance from the restaurant. We really consider it to be the best Italian in the city. The pastas are incredible overall, and the cacio e pepe is my absolute favorite. The avocado and artichoke salad is a very notable starter, and a fav dessert is the warm bread pudding. The food is consistently excellent, the service also consistent and excellent. The servers are knowledgeable and professional and the timing is always right. I cannot recommend Il Corso enough!

    Food was exquisite from start to finish with a special shoutout to the butternut squash soup which was a DELIGHT and the Pappardelle al Ragu di Agnello which was probably one of the best dishes I’ve ever eaten, the slow cooked red wine lamb Ragu will live rent free daily in my mind til I get it again..lastly, service was absolutely fantastic and our server was a gem ..10/10 recommend
