Washington, DC has no shortage of excellent restaurants, especially Italian. These venues cover the entire culinary spectrum - while some are projects of native Italian chefs, others take the best of the Italian tradition and modify it to American tastes. Several establishments pride themselves on a constant rotation of seasonal ingredients brought to life in simple yet potently flavorful dishes, while others experiment with novel platters and unexpected combinations.
