Best Casual Restaurants in Washington DC

Food is delicious comfort food like meatballs, cacio e pepe arancini, spicy risotto with Italian sausage, and delicious pizzas. We have never had a dish we didn’t love. The service is always impeccable, friendly and efficient. When we told our server that one of our party had a shellfish allergy, a manager came out and told us which items might be unsafe because they were cooked in the same oil as the calamari. This was such an important thing to do and we’ve never had that happen anywhere else. I highly recommend North Italia!

This place is fantastic for both goods and services, and with their rewards/loyalty program, the savings are incredible when you redeem your rewards—no questions asked. It’s simply the best! We’ve been loyal customers for over seven years and will continue to return without hesitation. A huge thanks to the chef-owner, who always greets us warmly and remembers us, making each visit special. Special praise also goes to Steven and Nora who provided excellent service and are a pleasure to chat with.

It was a very nice evening just the two of us. We'll be back.

We dined in for Valentine’s Day and took advantage of the 3 course pre fix menu. The flavors were excellent, but the portions for both the appetizers and desserts were barely more than a mouthful. I’ve eaten here before and enjoyed everything about the experience. Maybe shrinkflation?

Server was the best. The 4 of us loved our meals and had beignets for dessert. They were absolutely delicious. Pleasant night with good friends!
