Ricciuti's - Olney

Went on a Saturday late afternoon to have an early dinner. I got a mushroom pasta dish and my friend got the short rib pasta. Both dishes were heavily salted, but mine was unbearable. I had so many glasses of water to try to balance it out. The cream sauce was also a bit thin. Thankfully, they remade the dish, but after a few bites, I realized that the second time, it was still just TOO SALTY. The flatbread appetizer was good and the salted caramel gelato was actually amazing, but the main dishes were sorely lacking. Service was mostly great. Upstairs, the service was amazing and our server, Kate, was extremely attentive, even as it got busier. Downstairs, however, when I arrived, they were unaware that the other half of my party had arrived, and they never checked me in as I was marked as a no-show on OpenTable (no big deal, just off-putting). The atmosphere is modern and lovely. There was a loud group occupying the bar area, but not much could be done about that. Overall, it could be great, but just...isn't.

Went without a reservation and sat at the bar. Ronald was very friendly and nice taking care of us. We had a good time dining there.

Went to Salt Vine on 6/28 and we were served by Ronald in the upstairs bar. Service was outstanding and Ronald made useful suggestions regarding our food and drink choices. Food arrived at a comfortable pace and every dish was delicious. We never felt rushed or ignored by any of the servers. The atmosphere was very relaxing and my family will definitely visit again when we are in the area. Thank you Ronald for a great experience!

Great quality Italian on the pricey side but worth it.

Patrick was absolutely amazing! His service was impeccable. He went above and beyond to make us feel satisfied. He went over the extensive menu and had us laughing throughout. His service was outstanding and we will be coming back just because of his amazing attitude and positivity. Thank you so much Pat!
