What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"We visited Café Milano again this Christmas Eve — our second year in a row — and once again had a wonderful experience. The service here is consistently excellent. Every server we’ve had has been attentive, professional, and warm. You can tell the staff really care about making sure guests are taken care of, and that level of attentiveness makes a big difference, especially on a busy holiday night. The food was good both times we visited. Although the portions are on the smaller side. Still, we enjoyed it. The only downside for us is the spacing and acoustics of the restaurant. The tables are quite close together, and with how busy it gets, you often have to raise your voice just to hear the person sitting next to you. The space feels a bit tight, and the noise level can take away from the dining atmosphere. Overall, though, Café Milano continues to be a great holiday tradition for us. The excellent service, quality food, and festive energy keep us coming back."
"Amazing experience at Cafe Milano, authentic Italian food, amazing atmosphere and unmatched service. Candido and the staff made us feel welcome since the beginning and helped us prepare a fantastic Wine Dinner for my Perbacco Wine Club. As an italian I was stunned by the quality of the ingredients and by the cuisine. The Linguine allo scoglio could easily be as good as a Posillipo restaurant, the Veal as good as the one in the best restaurant in Tuscany. Incredible experience, it was an honor to organize an event here and all my guests were stunned by the quality of the food. I want to thank the staff and Mr Giuseppe Lonardo for hooking me up with the best Italian restaurant outside of Italy I’ve ever been to."
"Nice Christmas decorations. Simply best Italian restaurant in DC.. Grilled calamari was so tender and juicy and cauliflower soup is full of flavor with truffle. Holiday specials main dishes like squid ink pasta and dover/branzino are super tasty. Tiramisu for dessert is never disappointing."
"We had a great lunch here. The Milano salad was super fresh, the bruschetta was delicious, and both pastas were solid—the seafood pasta full of flavor (but knocked food to 4 because it’s a lemon pasta and didn’t get much lemon flavor); and the angel hair light and delicious. Everything tasted really well done without being overcomplicated. Service was fantastic and friendly, and the whole vibe made it easy to just relax and enjoy. Definitely a place to check out."
"Cafe Milano has a great vibe - highly recommend for a fun night out in Georgetown. The food, decor and service are all good - but nothing to write home about. This place is all about the atmosphere. Lives up to the hype of the DC scene… politicians, news anchors, and other dc celebrities at various tables. Fun people watching, and good Italian fare to accompany. Great place."
"I stopped in for dinner on a Sunday night and it was pretty empty! I ordered at the counter and it took about 15 minutes for my pizza to come out. I got the..."
