Sfoglina Downtown Washington Reviews
Stop in, take your time, and enjoy the great tastes of Italy!
What a phenomenal experience! I was in town for work and we wanted to sneak in here and we got in. The staff were incredible and we even had the chef come check on our table. The dessert and coffee were so good we stopped in the next night to get ano
The patio is wonderful on a nice day.
I decided to sit down as I was walking home from an appointment and have a bowl of pasta on the patio. It's great for people viewing and to kind of sit and have a relaxing moment. The service was great and I found her to be extremely attentive.

It's tough to decide whether the food or the service were better at Sfoglina. Our server was fantastic and it only by thinking about experiences elsewhere that I can really appreciate the whole process of things arriving at the table at the prop

food exceeded our expectations! went for their brunch and would definitely recommend. Raspberry waffle was very unique and tasty so was the peach sorbet if you love desert.
Made a reservation at Sfoglina yesterday evening.
The moment we walked in, we were greeted by the kindest man--he literally goes out of his way to make sure your experience is top-notch! Our server was Alejandro, and he was beyond wonderful and kind. The food? Out of this world delicious. My husban

The food and service were excellent! While the handmade pasta was delicious, I have the say the Caesar salad was by far my favorite bite and perfect for sharing! It's so good I can't even explain. Deviled eggs were delicious as well
Food and service
Oscar Reyes was a great server. He helped us to navigate the menu. Also i celebrated my sisters’ birthday at the restaurant and he surprised us with gelato on the house. We were tourists so he even gave us advice on where to look around. The atmos
Cute ambiance.
Food took a little longer than I would have liked but it was lovely. The tiramisu rocked my world
10/10 from the service to the incredible food.
Sfoglina is always a treat. Best Italian in the city. Just never misses
Great food and the servers were very attentive and nice.
The ambiance was perfect and very cozy. Recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for an intimate dinner or a large group dinner.
The express lunch option is fantastic.
I'd generally stick to the pasta option as that's what they do best. The gelato is always fresh and tasty. Service is always consistently attentive.

Wonderful little authentic Italian restaurant with a great location. We enjoyed this little place on our first night in DC with our two toddlers and in-laws. The staff was attentive but not intrusive. Perfectly balanced. While I'm not a huge pas
Fantastic Meal and Excellent Service
We did not have reservations and they snuck us in. The Caeser Salads were phenomenal, our entrees were amazing, and desert was great. Service was outstanding and we were treated like everyone in suits (very well) even though we were in fairly casual
Absolutely amazing food and service- highly recommend!!
What an amazing meal! Absolutely delicious food with top-notch service! Our server, Oscar, was fantastic with excellent knowledge of the menu. All his suggestions were perfect. Everything from the appetizers to the dessert was phenomenal.
Yummy Italian near CityCenter mall and Metro Center
One of my favorite places to eat when in DC-they’re willing to modify dishes for dietary restrictions, and everything is tasty and served hot. The decor is fun and there are a couple of private rooms for groups, and a nice bar (if dining alone). We
Nice lunch
We had lunch with some friends at Sfoglina during Restaurant Week. I chose to do the three course lunch with gazpacho, swordfish, and gelato. All of the food was excellent. My only criticism is that the piece of fish was very small. Everyone else

There are a lot of much better options in DC. This place is overpriced and not great. We ordered a carbonara dish which had way too much egg in it to the point where it overpowered everything else. We also ordered the eggplant parm, which was describ
Service and food were both good.
Barratta, Tomato and grill artichoke app was tasty too!
This is one of my favorite places to visit in the States.
I've been here twice, which means I go there whenever I'm in DC. Dinner is definitely better than lunch time if you go here for a date :) The entire menu is savory! All the pastas and their tiramisu are exceptionally good! If I ever have the chance

I was in DC for a trade show and I was looking for a place to eat with my work colleagues. This location was close to our hotel within walking distance. The reviews were mostly positive so we decided to try it out. We were NOT disappointed. We ordere
Absolutely delightful dinner experience!
We had a fabulous dining experience, tonight. Our waiter, Oscar, was excellent - very helpful and quite attentive. I wanted a simple arrabbiata preparation of my pasta, which was not on the menu. Oscar said no problem, and they made an excellent

This place has an incredible happy hour.
Oscar at the bar was super sweet to me and made great recommendations. Another staffer Ameo talked to me for awhile - everyone from hostess to barbacks were all very attentive and warm. Loved talking to Bruno the manager who was easy to talk to and k

I was welcomed with vintage ambiance, kind, engaging service and simply delicious cuisine. An unassuming little gem that you may walk by without a thought but should engage in a lovely moment and meal if you have the chance.
Had a nice evening at Sfoglina thanks to our server, Irvin.
He was friendly, professional and accommodating. The restaurant was cozy and beautiful. It was a Saturday night. We didn't have a reservation so we dined at the bar. We had the Burrata della Campania and tried the Pasta Tasting. We had the Spicy Squi

When our original dinner plans fell through, we spontaneously found Sfoglina and it turned out to be a great pick. This is more of an upscale Italian restaurant and it appeared to be pretty popular with the after-work crowd as most customers arrived
Great caesar salads.
Can't comment on pasta but if the caesar is any indication, the pasta would be wonderful. Authentic dressing and for dessert, the tiramisu was simply wonderful.
An Italian Delight
This restaurant is to die for. From the minute you walk in you are treated like you're special. Our server Oscar was phenomenal, very attentive and knowledgeable. My daughter (7) told the chef that her kids pizza was the best pizza she had e
Sfoglina is a cute restaurant with good Italian food.
The vibes are cozy and they typically have older music playing, which adds to the ambience. The service is also typically quick and attentive. The pasta is fresh, and the rosemary bread is one of my favorites! This is a solid choice for Italian food
Got a reservation night of, seated right away and service
Got a reservation night of, seated right away and service was always available but never over the top. Squid ink pasta was outrageous, carbonara delicious and the soft egg ceaser perfect. I'd go back time an time again.
Easily the best Italian meal I've had in memory.
The short rib agnolotti was delicious, as was everything we had. My only regret is that I can't eat here again!
Can't beat the variety of house-made pasta options.
Can't decide on what to order? Try the Pasta Tasting and select three dishes. Ample serving for two hungry people to share. Delish!Energetic vibe and attentive service; but not a quiet romantic venue if that's what you're looking for.
Some of us got sick and throwing up all night .
I had potato gnocchi and we ordered 3 appetizers, not sure which made us sick but not going back. Servers were great.
Honestly, some of the best past I've ever eaten.
Every single dish is perfectly executed. What an amazing dining experience! I started with the Grilled Spiced Wild Calamari with Almond Romesco, and Charred Red Peppers, and OMG- it's the best calamari I've had. So perfectly tender with just the per
Exceptional Italian food
Exceptional Italian food in upscale restaurant. Both pasta dishes we had were very good, as was the warm Rosemary bread. Wait staff was very attentive at the beginning but not so much at the end. Definitely encourage alcoholic drinks to accompany the
Ambiance and service were good - food was average.
Started with the garlic bread, which was a super small portion for the price (barely shareable with 3 people). To eat, we got the Radiatore all' Arrabiata (good, quiet spicy), the Bucatini alla Carbonara, and the Spicy Penne alla Vodka (added chicken

Sfoglina really knows how to treat a woman.
I'll keep it short and sweet. This was the best Shirley Temple I've had thus far. I'm not sure what they did in regards to the sprite and grenadine, but there was a noticeable difference in quality compared to previous Shirley Temples. And LOOK at th
Excellent food and service.
Spicy vodka penne was delicious. Service and atmosphere was great.
Top notch Italian
Sfoglina is one restaurant where you do want to waste your appetite on the bread and salad, because these were standout parts of the meal, especially the thick, soft and cheesy garlic bread and spicy broccolini salad. I certainly enjoyed the bologne
Not What We Had Hoped For
Very disappointed with our dinner delivery from Sfoglina. We had a simple order— 2 of the same dish, garlic bread and a slice of cake. We’d been out so we set the time for a delivery after we knew we’d be back at our hotel. The meal was deliver
Prices beyond all logic
Nice location, average quality, exorbitant prices: 2 beers, a bottle of water, two plates of pasta, 4 slices of bread and one of cake 135 Dollars!!!! To avoid!
Worse Italian food in DC
Whoever wrote positive reviews of this place never tasted real Italian food. I'm Italian and this place is terrible. EVERYTHING absolutely EVERYTHING is way too salty and has no other taste than salt, to the point of making your mouth numb. I do eat
Food food and nice service
We shared three different pastas. Buccatini alla Carbonara, Pappardelle Bolognese and Tagliatelle Aglio e Olio. The tagliatelle was our favorit and the little spicyness was nice. The buccatini was also very good. However, the pappardelle was a bit ov
Great find
I have been here for business for a week. I’ve eaten at this restaurant twice. Both times the restaurant experience was exceptional. The food is incredible. I had Bronzino and my wife had the mussels which had an amazingly flavorful sauce. The wine
Memories of Meals...
Exceptional food and service. Ambience is perfect for conversation and meal together. A truly memorable family experience was created here. Thank you.
Over the top excellence
We were greeted with care and seated immediately. Our waitress was great, but… she completely forgot our wine order and we ended up sending our dinner back because we wanted to enjoy our wine first. As a result of that, we we’re showered with att

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Sfoglina Downtown Washington at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Sfoglina Downtown Washington page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Sfoglina Downtown Washington to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Sfoglina Downtown Washington!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
