    I had an amazing experience, as usual. Our server Chris was attentive and engaging. The managers checked-in to make sure we were comfortable, and food and drinks were to our satisfaction. The food is outstanding! Period. Every dish was absolutely delicious as well as the crafted cocktails. If you plan to go, check out the menu but don't make up your mind before arrival. The chef will definitely have something on the specials that will make you rethink your decision.

    Tosca has been one of our favorite restaurants over the years however this last experience was well below expectations. First of all, the dinner was delivered but the side orders came much later, almost after we were all more than half way done with our dinner and only after us having to ask, “what happened to our side orders?”. Secondly, the veal which I ordered was hard, did not taste fresh. For a place of this caliber, this is unacceptable .

    Tosca remains my favorite place to dine in DC. Their menu is wonderful with so many options based on Northern Italian cuisine. We had the Cavatelli, the Agnolotti and the Steak and every thing was excellent! Their desserts were heavenly! Pumpkin cheesecake, an Apple fused dish and Tiramisu. It’s just great to go someplace where you know you’ll have a most amazing meal and be treated with such kindness! Chris is a most wonderful server! Ask for him by name!

    We did a date night at Tosca and took advantage of the fresh Truffles they were featuring. This was not the typical microscopic truffle shaving you get elsewhere- they really expended some truffles. Starting with a beef carpaccio with endive and truffles- amazing. I was lucky enough to score a veal chop - perfectly prepared and portioned just right. Of course the truffles just bring out the best. The starter courses were two delightful pastas- one of which was all egg yolks- no water. Perfect. Tosca has become our #1 destination restaurant- the ambiance and service are worthy of a star or two. Jonathon and Brian really go the extra mile to make the experience memorable.

    Our waiter was superb. Great recommendations on wine and specials. We had an amazing Pino Nero from Alto Aldige. Polenta, mushroom, and cheese appetizer was superb. The four of us split two plates. The special pasta with pumpkin seeds and brown butter sauce was amazing. All pastas were amazing. Go and ask waiter for recommendations.

    Service from our waiter today was just Ok- The other wait staff was wonderful- management always fantastic! Waiter never offered us anything to drink and barely suggested a salad option- not the usual good service.

    Still the best true Italian restaurant in the DC area, IMHO. I am half Italian and I visit my Mother in Milan 3 times per year. I can’t think of another DC-area restaurant to which I would take an Italian friend.
