"Trattoria Alberto is the one of the few things everyone on Capitol Hill can agree on. The old-school restaurant with its cherry wood furniture and white linen table cloths is usually full of senators and staffers not-so-quietly discussing cuts to healthcare access over piping hot plates of chicken parm. And while the present company might leave a bad taste in your mouth, the food, like their creamy pesto fettuccine, is done well. Their creme brûlée, which they keep simple with cream, vanilla, and sugar, is one of the best in the city." - omnia saed, allison robicelli, mekita rivas

"Be forewarned that although visitors don’t come to Trattoria Alberto, congressional staffers do (but avoiding them is a different guide for a different day). The restaurant is a staple for those on the Hill looking for Italian food done right, think spaghetti and marinara, chicken parmesan, and a crème brûlée that’s almost worth sitting through long-winded conversations about congressional procedure. The best seats in the house are on the patio, but the restaurant doesn’t take reservations, so come early. " - Omnia Saed
