Trattoria Dionisia - Parker

We've never been disappointed visiting Trattoria Dionisia! The food is excellent and the service is impeccable!

Delightful and delicious!!! Definitely get the bruschetta, and the deserts are unmatched!!!

A worthy place to go! I was VERY happy with portion sizes, because I’ve been to several other Italian restaurants in the area that don’t give you enough to justify calling something an entree. Bread and the glass of wine I ordered were excellent. Small hangup was that the space was a wee bit small, and since it wasn’t full of patrons I didn’t like being put in the middle. (In this instance, baby does want to be put in the corner). My carbonara was well-portioned but slightly less flavorful than I expected. Crème brûlée was good to end the meal. If I’m craving local Italian food and I’m over by this way I’ll keep this lovely lil place in mind!Dietary restrictions: I did not order any, but there are several gluten free options I saw on the menu.

Went in on a Saturday night, hungry for some good, authentic Italian cooking. Oops. The server was nice but not well prepared to answer any questions. The wine I wanted was not available, same with the sparkling water. The pasta was overcooked and not drained properly, so the meat sauce (grandly advertised as Bolognese, but really just chunks of hamburger with some tomatoes, onions, and garlic), was watery. My dessert was 2 tiny and pretty stale cannoli and an espresso followed by an amaro (which seemed to amuse the bar regulars). All in all, not a welcoming place. The last straw was the small print announcement on the menu, almost an apology, that said that if you didn't pay in cash, they would unfortunately have to charge a 4% fee. When did it become my responsibility as a patron to pay for your credit card processing fees? Last but not least, the helpful tip guide on the check started at 20% and went up from there...

Stopped in for the first time last night and our expectations were exceeded in every way possible. The atmosphere reminds me of a quaint Italian kitchen. The food and service were both exceptional! My husband and myself thoroughly enjoyed our date night there and have now found one of our new favorite places to dine.The place is small but in my opinion that only adds to the ambiance of the restaurant. Already looking forward to our next visit!!
