- RRichardVIPKey West / Florida Keys •9 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAl Tiramasu combines an intimate atmospheric dining room with excellent food and professional service. A restaurant you can actually talk in. So rare in the era of loud noise levels at most restaurants. Highly recommended.More infoAl TiramisuPrice: Expensive• Italian• Dupont Circle•4.8
- KKevinVIPWashington, D.C. Area •47 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis was a nice quiet atmosphere for a lunch with friends. I’ve had many pleasant experiences at La Tomate and this was no exception. One suggestion is to give diners more time to review the menu before ordering. Overall, though, a very nice meal and surroundings. I need to remember that this oasis is right in my neighborhood and I should go more often.More infoLa TomatePrice: Expensive• Italian• Dupont Circle•4.8

- LLorraineVirginia •23 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 13, 2024We had family visiting DC from Australia. They suggested Italian. I just picked this restaurant based on cost, as we were a party of 6. Our guests arrived before us and had appetizers. With that & one bottle of wine, a couple of beers & main course, our bill came to $245. The restaurant is very open. It was loud and difficult to hear the person sitting across from you. The food was delicious and our guests raved about it. On a weekend night (Fri-Sat), a reservation is a must. I'd definitely go back. Added bonus was the parking garage (altho outrageous price $21) is right next door on R Street.More infoSette OsteriaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Dupont Circle•4.5
