"Shortly after opening in Falls Church in 2019, this mom-and-pop pasta shop from chefs Gabe and Katherine Thompson won positive reviews for its spicy meatballs and olive oil cake. The couple, who rose through the ranks of the NYC restaurant scene before moving to be close to family in Northern Virginia, also opened a second location in Old Town Alexandria. Order takeout here. Rotating pasta picks showcase smoked duck ragu and broccoli rabe pesto." - Tierney Plumb, Mekita Rivas
