L'Ardente Washington Reviews from The Last Year
All around really enjoyed this place, their food and the
All around really enjoyed this place, their food and the general vibe. Service was awesome and management checked in on us!
We love this place.
We started out with the Prosciutto Di Parma and Carciofi. I had the parpadelle, my wife the layered lasagna, and my daughter the ravioli. Our drinks were great (old fashion, pinot grigio, and etc.). Desserts Teramisu Flambe and Ricotta Cheesecake. All items were delicious and most are in the photos already. Service was great, bathrooms clean, ambiance was inviting. We are not used to DC, so I have never seen a 20% added for service workers and then they said an additional tip would be generous. We don't have that even at the nicer restaurants in Nashville, so I didn't know how much to tip with the 20% already added. Usually, that is "baked" in the food cost where we are from.
Amazing food.
Loved the 40 layer lasagna , seafood dish and my cocktail was also delicious ! Ambiance is great for date night / special occasions.
5/5! Highly recommend the Duck Hunt and any of the pastas.
Service was quick and professional
Very underwhelmed by my last visit.
The best items of my meal were the ones that weren't prepared by the human hands: the red wine and oysters. Now as for the meal: 1. I ordered the 48 layers lasagna, I couldn't even eat it halfway. The sodium levels were high, it was almost like I was just eating salt. 2. I had to order a desert to counter all the salt on my tongue and throat that the wine nor water washed away. I ordered the Tiramisu (it was different and I wasn't impressed) 3. Then for my desert drink I ordered an espresso martini and requested they substitute the vodka with tequila. The establishment charged me a shot of patron and the drink. Most establishments just make the liquor substitute which is weird on their part and of course the drink came out tasting like patron. The morning after my throat and tongue still taste like salt. Of the two stars, one is for the oysters the other for the red wine.
Decided I really needed the 40 layer lasagna for my
Decided I really needed the 40 layer lasagna for my birthday this year -- let me tell you guys, the food did not disappoint! We started off with the Arancini and Margarita pizza, both were delicious! The cheesiness of the arancini with the chili oil was to die for. The pizza was tasteful and cooked perfectly. Let me not get started on the lasagna, it lived up to the hype. The rib meat in the lasagna gave it a different taste but in a good way. One small note - we def thought the portion was going to be a bit bigger. Nevertheless it was good! For dessert we had the Tiramisu Flambé and the soft serve. The presentation was so cute and fun. The service was fine, our waiter was nice but he could've been a little more helpful since it was our first time here. Our drinks were good too! Overall, great experience for my birthday! Would def be coming back :)
Incredible experience.
Such a beautiful restaurant and the staff is amazing! We were indecisive on which wine to choose and their wonderful sommelier, Kendrick, helped us find something we loved. Service was stellar and the manager was absolutely impeccable. Will be returning and I highly recommend.
Quite possibly the best Italian restaurant in DC and
Quite possibly the best Italian restaurant in DC and certainly among the best places around. I find myself thinking about the pappardelle, lasagna, and the duck soup on par with how often I think about the Roman Empire. The only thing off with the experience is the tacky neon sign referencing cocaine by the bathrooms; otherwise perfect.
Okay okay okay I get the hype now, I really do! We came
Okay okay okay I get the hype now, I really do! We came here with a group of 9 people who were all excited to share lots of things on the menu, which (in my humble opinion) is the best way to try a restaurant for the first time. We got a good selection of the menu and I really think I got a good feel for what L'ardente is all about. First, our server was super attentive and kind. I know with 9 people it can get hectic, especially on a Friday night, but he never forgot anything and kept a smile on the whole time. 10/10. I'll list the items we tried in order of my favorites: Zucca Arancini Bucatini Cacio e Pepe Hamachi Crudo Ravioli Lasagna Americana Pizza Cheesecake Gianduja S'mores Tiramisu Flambe My favorite cocktail was the Arancia Rossa Margarita, which was super gorgeous and also very delicious. The mule was syrupy and barely drinkable imo, but the Frozen Sicilian was also a winner.
Overhyped! It was fine but wouldn't come back.
For first timers, be aware that they tack on a 20% service charge to your bill. Duck ravioli (3.5/5): This was mostly sauce with a tiny piece of ravioli, hardly any duck flavor or filling. Sauce was good but it was about 85% of this appetizer. Zucca (2/5): Lacked in flavor--I had to ask the waiter for black pepper and red pepper flakes. Very bland red sauce and the sausage was good, but had clearly not had time to properly immerse into the sauce. Bland and definitely could be prepared better at home. 40 layer lasagna (4.5/5): This was the best dish of the night! Flavor was fantastic, presentation was great, and it was a sizable portion. Really delicious. Pretty much the only thing I'd get again, carried the entire dinner. Tiramisu flambé (2/5): Presentation was cool so I can't dock it more than the current score but it was truly the most lackluster tiramisu...the flambé was cool but completely unnecessary as the alcohol did not burn off properly. Dessert was not soaked evenly in espresso and alcohol, leaving some pieces tasting very bitter and some with an overpowering coffee flavor. Would not get again. Service was also incredibly slow. Tables around us were waiting for the waiter to take their orders and sitting around. Ambiance is nice and definitely geared toward a younger, hip crowd--not too loud or too dark, which is a plus. Unfortunately, the meal was lackluster--plenty of better Italian in the city and I would not return on my own volition. But if I came with a group, I'd try a couple more apps and get the lasagna again.
Overhyped and underwhelmed
For the price, I suppose I was expecting better ambience and more attentive service. Granted, we were there on a busy night, but two of the toilets were backed up and the bathrooms were pretty gross. Service wasn’t the most attentive and with a $35 surcharge for truffles on top of already pricey entrees, the truffles weren’t even shaved tableside. Large, large restaurant with the vibe of a mid-range casino. Lasagna was tasty but overall not impressed.
Good food but…
Three of us visited in late December. The 40 layer lasagna and the fig dessert were very good. Service could have been more attentive, water glasses were left empty several times and we had to ask to order cocktails. The worst part was being seated next to a family group where the children were seldom in their seats and allowed to jump up and down behind other guests. I feel like the staff should intervene when other diners are that disruptive. Overall it’s a nice restaurant with some very good dishes. Unfortunately, lots of restaurants have staff issues these days.
Super
Really loved the food and the service. Would highly recommend to all. The lasagne was the best I ever had!
One of the best places in DC
Absolutely one of the best places in DC. Great service, ambiance and amazing food. Perfect for a date night or just to get out. Can’t say enough about the food, it’s unique and delicious. An absolute must
Pricey but top notch brunch
While L'Ardente is pricey, we found the Saturday brunch top notch. The caesar salad was excellent and had a different twist with lemon bits and mint; my pasta was quite good, and my friend's wild mushroom pizza may be the best I've ever had. We found the desserts not as good as the main dishes although the cheesecake was quite good. L'Ardente lives up to its creative culinary reputation.
Loud brasserie with decent food
This is pretty good spot if you’re looking for something Italian and lively. It was not what we were expecting. Some dishes are better than others. Arancini and “fresh focaccia” were cold in the middle. Pizza seafood pasta were excellent. Crudo fish just ok. Spiced apple dessert was strange and didn’t seem fresh. Service was warm and very friendly. The guests are an interesting cast of characters
Great food and atmosphere
40 layer lasagna - if you are on the fence about what to order just know the lasagna needs to be ordered because it’s amazing.
Beautiful place, good food, busy
Great ambiance, beautiful place, great location, good food and outstanding service. Our waiter couldn’t have been more professional and nice. Great food is hard to find in DC and this place was great
Luke warm, soggy pasta
Soggy pasta, nowhere near al dente. Very strange sweet and sour sauce with the arancini. Suggest serving it with a traditional tomato sauce. Food was luke warm to cold. Wine list has very little in terms of under 100 dollars for a bottle. Holding a credit card to secure reservation makes sense for a place like the Inn at little washintion, but for a place that is one notch above Carrabbas, it's a bit ridiculous. My suggestion, skip L'ardente and go to RPM instead - leaps and bounds better.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
