12/04/2014 4:00 pmComing from northern New Jersey and exposure to traditional italian pasta dishes, I don't believe there is a ton of good italian in the DC area, even at high-priced establishments that get good publicity. This small but comfortable kitchen makes quite wonderful, authentic pasta dishes that don't try to wow you with a hundred flavors going on...they trust the simple flavors of their ingredients and completely nail the rustic tastes they are presenting. I've only had the pastas, but they are fantastic with just the right size portions. I tell everyone I know to go here, and everyone I've brought has loved it. |

We've had several wonderful meals here -- both romantic evenings and family gatherings alike. Everyone leaves happy and satisfied. But shhh -- Al Crostino is one of the best kept secrets in town. |
