Handmade pastas, pizzas, and seasonal dishes near White House
"Olio e Più, an Italian restaurant from NYC with a location in Chicago, has opened downtown alongside its French sibling, La Grande Boucherie. Expect the standards: housemade pastas, hand-stretched pizzas, seasonal dishes, and mains like chicken milanese and branzino with sautéed green beans." - omnia saed
"This Italian trattoria from New York City is now open for brunch from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and serving up bottomless mimosas with orange, grapefruit, cranberry, and pineapple juices for $30 per person. Diners at the new brunch can also receive a complimentary Bellini or espresso martini to sip alongside zucchini and mint frittata, prosciutto and spinach omelet, ciabatta and focaccia paninis, pastas, and whole branzino." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
"This charming NYC-born restaurant joined its fancy French sibling La Grande Boucherie in the same Federal-American National Bank Building in October. The 120-seat dining room near the White House evokes a grand villa nestled in the Italian countryside, with Italian executive chef Danilo Galati serving up traditional dishes like a bowl of pesto pasta that gets a textural twist from potatoes and green beans. Pastas are all handmade on-site from its shiny open kitchen in the back. Charcuterie and cheese arrives with homemade focaccia, followed by a crudo bar, salads, soups, and antipasti like octopus carpaccio or roasted veal eye round surrounded in tonnato sauce and crispy capers." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
"I found this sprawling Italy-focused spot a charming debut downtown: the 120-seat dining room evokes a grand villa and serves regional offerings from charcuterie and cheese with homemade focaccia to a crudo bar, antipasti like octopus carpaccio and roasted veal eye round with tonnato sauce, and handmade pastas from an open kitchen." - Emily Venezky
