Came here when the doors opened a while back. We were seated promptly as the restaurant was empty. As the evening went on, of course, it filled up more and more. We ordered a few dishes, all very well done and cooked to perfection.
The place and staff felt very familial and well versed on their specials and menus. While it did take a little while for the food to be served, it's not a chain restaurant where they unseal your food from a bag and microwave it. The wait at a place like this that means the food is very freshly made, and it was indeed worth the wait. I highly recommend this place,

Food and service is adequate. Decided to try this place out after recommendation. Getting into downtown find parking at one of downtown Bethesda’s many lots. We were seated quickly and place is clean and inviting. There was plenty of foot traffic from take out and grub hub orders. There isn’t really any room or server station inside so foot traffic loiters around tables. Tried an anti pasta, seafood special and gnocchi. All dishes came out as ordered. Seasoning is not overpowering and serving sizes are on the larger side. Even tried the desert of cannoli and tiramisu. A nice experience.

All the food was delicious. I ordered the special, the red snapper was really tasty. The spaghetti marinara was good but the penne vodka was my favorite. For the ones that don’t like pasta we got a chicken with mushrooms sauce, potatoes and veggies.

Excellent Italian food in a lowkwy Bethesda setting that draws many locals. The calamari was good. The flounder stuffed with crab and served with pasta was amazing. It's definitely worth trying from the specials menu. We will be back when looking for traditional Italian food again.
Parking is on the street.

Great little Italian spot. We ordered the specials tonight. A rack of lamb and red snapper in white wine sauce and they where both fantastic. Portions are a nice size and the pasta is fantastic
