"This family-run restaurant has been Crystal City’s go-to for Northern Italian cuisine since it opened in 1970. The menu ranges from ricotta-filled, baked eggplant and meatball-studded Italian wedding soup to linguine with clam sauce and rosemary-crusted lamb chops. — Lenore Atkins" - Lenore Adkins, Missy Frederick
