Rich, flavorful and comforting Italian food. The service was excellent, Juan, was friendly and personable. The outdoor seating... is perfect for a cool summer night while the dinning room inside has a cozy aesthetic. Pictured: lasagna, burrata ravioli,indoor and outdoor dining spaces Read more
Neither my Husband or I considered Italian food one of our top favorite cuisine, but after coming to Floriana’s, that has... definitely changed. Everything about our dinner was perfect! The location is fantastic, only a 5 min walk from our hotel. Therestaurant was cozy, romantic, clean, and welcoming. I loved the decor and the feel that I was eating at someone’s house. Theservice was amazing. Always had water on my table, our orders did not take more than 15 minutes to arrive, the waiter was notconstantly interrupting, but made sure we were taken care of. Their menu has a great variety of options without feelingoverwhelming. They have a great array of wine to choose from by the glass or bottle and also have a cocktail menu. I went forthe sangria and it was absolutely delicious. My husband had something with bourbon that I can’t recall the name of now, butequally as good and strong! Now the food. Best bread and pesto! I had their yellow tomato soup for appetizer and it was chefskiss! Best Risotto I have ever had! I like to consider myself a self-made chef and have cooked risotto many times, but thisrisotto was out of this world. Portion was generous, flavor was to die for and texture was amazing! Every bite was a bit of ahigh, fireworks of flavor and texture in your mouth! My Husband ordered the lasagna and again, absolutely delicious. Greatportion, housemade pasta, mozzarella, and sauce! You can taste the freshness and the amazing flavor in every bite! We were alsovery thankful fof the nice anniversary surprise at the end of our meal with on the house champagne and dessert. Deliciousbubbles and we had the berry sorbet which was the perfect light sweet end to a carb heavy meal. All in all, we did not want toleave and were actually the last to leave in the dining room. I wish I lived in DC, just so I could come here every week! Ispent hours looking for a restaurant for this special day and I am so happy to have chosen Floriana! Best Italian food outthere! Read more
Good service and amazing (and very creative!) cocktails. The food disappointed a bit (was expecting more flavor and more... freshness), but I am willing to try other dishes next time. Read more

I dined here with 2 others for restaurant week. $40 for an appetizer, dinner, and dessert. The appetizers were great - we got... the gnocchi, Arancini, and the Salumi. We paired it with some excellent wine. For dinner, the lasagna was 10/10. Super cutevibes, the restaurant is in an old house. Service is excellent. Read more
I liked this place. Good service and attention. It's with a pre reservation. The food is delicious and very fresh. They have... tables indoor and outdoor. So you can enjoy wherever you want. I took some pictures of the menu because the letters are sosmall. I recommended this restaurant! Read more
Went out for a date night and was not disappointed. We began the night with cocktails, warm bread and the BEST pesto I’ve ever... tasted. We then had the lasagna and shrimp & scallop risotto. Both were cooked to perfection. Finished the night with anamazing teramisu. Don’t even question if this place is worth it. Just go! Read more
