Tropea Italiano - Capitol Hill

This restaurant is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended! As a native New Yorker, it can be hard to find great Italian food in Washington. We used to frequent their old location in Redmond, and we are thrilled to have them back. One of my favorite dishes is the Pollo al Tartufo (black truffle, mushroom, and cream sauce over a perfectly sauteed and flattened chicken breast). The tiramisu is homemade and delicious. Some of the other desserts are from a vendor, so make sure to ask.

The food at this restaurant was exceptional - incredibly tasty and full of flavor. The service was satisfactory, although nothing particularly outstanding since they were quite busy. The ambiance of the space was lovely, but unfortunately, the tables were too closely packed together which detracted from the overall atmosphere. It was a bit cramped and difficult to maneuver in and out of the seat comfortably. Despite these minor setbacks, the food experience was fantastic. It may be best to visit during non-peak hours for a more enjoyable dining experience.
