The Best Restaurants In Georgetown - Washington DC - The Infatuation
"Eighteen years after Nancy Silverton opened Osteria Mozza in LA, the iconic Italian restaurant has arrived in Georgetown. It doesn’t matter why or when you find yourself underneath the dining room’s soaring ceilings, eating at Osteria Mozza feels like an occasion. Start with the Focaccia di Recco. It’s not an option so much as a necessity—an ultra-thin, crispy, cheese-stuffed marvel finished with some of the best olive oil we’ve ever tasted. The sea trout is pan-seared to crisp-skinned perfection, its buttery flesh offset by the acidity of braised red cabbage, earthy Roveja peas, and the surprising richness of hard-boiled eggs. But if we had to pick just one reason to visit Osteria Mozza, it would be the dessert menu. The tiramisu is outstanding, but playing favorites feels unfair. If you decided to skip dinner entirely and focus solely on desserts, we wouldn’t judge you. In fact, we might join you." - joe brantlinger, tristiana hinton, omnia saed, madeline weinfield, allison robicelli
