Al Tiramisu, Washington, District of Columbia Restaurant Details

Food:

Amazing and authentic Italian. While on a trip to DC with the family, we found this intimate spot near the hotel. Walked I without a reservation and was blown away. I had handmade parpadelle with a delicious mushroom ragu. O_o

Food:

Four for early dinner.Cozy,empty and attentive service.0rdered a 90 dollar wine and was charged 160.One of the specials was veal roast. Two of us ordered the veal....do not neglect To ask price of specials.....price will not be mentioned by the server. The veal was rolled into a wheel shape and served with a sauce. The offering was so thin you could read thro it.Half was fat and it was so over done it was a struggle to cut. The waiter asked how we liked our dinner and I told him it was grossly over cooked. He then asked if he could replace it with something else.....kudos to the waiter, but we declined. Called when I got home and spoke to the waiter about over charge on the WINE which was immediately corrected. This place came highly recommended for its food. 2 risottos,i salad,1 wine,1 duck 2 veal 300.00. Quality of food....DON'T GO.

Food:

We were well-received for an early dinner; and initial service fine.
Restaurant is rather small, and narrow; acoustics very poor and make it almost impossible to have a conversation.
Upon ordering, appetizers arrived literally within a minute; obviously not freshly made but were fairly good, better than adequate.
1 of 3 dinners brought to table was wrong meal; waiter insisted it was what had been ordered, but because I do not ever eat what was served, no question and I told him to take it back.
Waiter agreed to have the correct meal (red snapper) prepared, but after a long wait and after others in the party were through with their meals, and only after I told the waiter to bring the meal or cancel it, it was brought to the table (on an extremely hot plate!)
It was at best a mediocre, and extremely small portion of red snapper.
Then a large party was seated closely behind our table, and additional chairs brought to that table which necessitated my moving where I was seated.
And finally, despite our very unpleasant meal, no accommodation was made or offered on the bill.
I do not mind paying $400 for a $400 meal (for 3). This was not worth it; not even close.
This restaurant claims to cater to the rich and famous. They can have it!

Food:

I was disappointed - at first, the service was good, and the waiters (I think I had David) were well informed about the menu and the ingredients. Later, I ordered pasta with clams, and ended up getting sick and throwing up a bad clam in the men's room. I mistakenly thought that they would comp the dish. They didn't. I won't return.

Food:

There is a reason Al Tiramisu has been voted the best Italian restaurant outside of Italy for several years in a row by the Italian Restaurant Association, it is that good. It's small so reservations are highly recommended. The fish is their speciality and they fly it in fresh from the Mediterranean. The preparation is pretty simple for most fish dishes, grilled with lemon and olive oil, but it's fantastic. The pasta is also great as it is made in house daily. Try the portabello mushroom appetizer topped with Chevre.

Food:

Beautifully prepared Italian meals, bursting with flavor and delivered with charm, make this intimate cellar off Dupont Circle fill up fast; wonderful fresh seafood is its specialty, but making guests feel extra welcome is probably the main reason it's a standby.
