La Dispensa

We love La Spiga, so when I got an email from their extension La Dispensa about the Grigliata Mista( Father's Day BBQ kit), and I was glad to take up the offer. This was such a great meal. Well thought out, a little bit of everything, and came with detailed instructions. It was so nice not thinking about dinner. Threw everything on the grill and in less than 30 minutes, we had a great Father's Day meal. I will definitely be looking at their other take home kits for the days I want a stellar meal, but don't have the energy to drag the kids out.

This is a stunning place to get a meal to cook at home, to take to the beach for a picnic, or hang out in their small lounge for an Italian happy hour. I absolutely love all the food. I have tried a lot of it at La Spiga, but there is stuff that you can get here that you can’t get at La Spiga. Everything comes in a perfect size and all the accompaniments you could think of are here. I have catered full on parties with items I’ve gotten from here and the reviews are always rave. People always ask me where they can get the food, and I tell them La Dispensa! It doesn’t hurt that it is located in the absolutely adorable Chophouse Row building in Capitol Hill.

I love the food at La Spiga, so I was happy to recreate the food at home with La Dispensas meal kits. The Pomodoro gnocchi, Morel pasta, and vegetarian Lasagna were just as delicious prepared at home. The service is exceptional; I even received a free lemonade because I had to wait longer than usual for the food. Fyi, they have cooking instructions on their website.

The food never disapppints, i hey the mortars and sometimes chicken with potatoes if I’m doing a HH snack and I’ve used them for catering as well. The service is so good, Mochi is a delight, so incredibly helpful and diligent, and warm. She goes above and beyond to give us a great experience. Feel lucky to have such a high quality counter in our community. Thanks gals!

Delicious, well priced, and freshly made food, all from a welcoming team. Great lunch spot and option to pick up Italian breads and treats to bring back home for later. Wonderful addition to Chophouse Row!

Cute little spot that's hard to find, but it's through the doors until you see the sofa. Food was great, really nice service and a really quiet and soothing dining area with a sofa and a table. Great for a quick bite!

The team at the counter is simply the best and the roast chicken lunch is not only the best deal on the hill, it's legit the most delicious chicken I've ever had!

Delicious lasagna bolognese 👌🏾
