"Longtime D.C. chef Fabio Trabbochi’s casual pasta house with a mozzarella bar is named for the Italian masters who make fresh pasta. Top sellers include carbonara, potato gnocchi with porcini crema, and garganelli with clams and chiles. During the pandemic, Anthony Fauci got a to-go pasta fix at the Van Ness original. There’s also outposts in Rosslyn and downtown. Order online for takeout and delivery. For a fancier noodle, consider its prix fixe, Michelin-starred sibling Fiola." - Mekita Rivas
"Sfoglina (sfoal-yee-nah) is Fabio Trabocchi’s ode to the Italian Dolce Vita and the craft of handmade pasta. It is inspired by the female pasta makers of Italy—today it’s cultural icons--who carried on the tradition and the art of making pasta by hand. The craft is showcased daily in our pasta rooms. Sfoglina serves light and seasonal salads, appetizers, shareable meat and seafood entrees, and authentic, family-favorite Italian desserts. Our charming venues feature a whimsical design and timeless Italian cocktails, approachable Italian wines, and comfy patios for al fresco dining."
