"Around since 2001, downtown’s iconic trattoria unveiled a fresh new look for its 20th anniversary. Executive chef Fortunato Nicotra, who earned Michelin stars at two restaurants in Sicily before the age of 30, led the kitchen at NYC’s award-winning Felidia before landing at Tosca. The old-school restaurant specializes in Northern Italian cuisine and homemade pastas, including its top-selling agnolotti del plin." - Mekita Rivas
"Pairs fresh pappardelle with white truffle shavings. Limited quantities are available; call to confirm." - Tierney Plumb
"Downtown’s 20-year-old power dining spot is back on Tuesday, May 25, with a lightened new look, a new chef, and seasonally focused menu. Phil Marzelli, formerly executive chef at Fabio Trabocchi’s Casa Luca and Sfoglina, is selling big-ticket items like whole grilled Dover sole and a tomahawk steak for two to go along with a new chef’s counter serving six-course tasting menus." - Tierney Plumb
"After the first version of this story published, Eater has learned a trio of Italian eateries in D.C. also just sued their shared carrier for denied business interruption coverage. Long-running power lunch spot Ristorante Tosca, Shaw’s San Lorenzo, and Union Market Distrtict’s Stellina Pizzeria filed a suit today against the Erie Insurance Group." - Tierney Plumb
"Upscale northern Italian stalwart Tosca serves a three-course, pre-theater menu for $45 Monday through Saturday, from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Diners can choose from a broad selection of soup, salads, risotto, multiple pastas, plus gnocchi, fish, chicken, and dessert before heading to nearby Ford’s Theater, The Warner Theater, and other venues." - Travis Mitchell
