We scattered to grab some food while in the Western Market, I picked Capo. I am attracted to Italian subs so when I saw that on the overhead menu, that's what I ordered. My order taker / sandwich maker got the job done. While it wasn't the best sub I've ever had it was pretty good. This Capo Italian Deli is a small place with some common tables in front of the business.

The sub was great and you can't beat the price either. The bread was fresh and ingredients all tasted amazing together.

I finally got my hands on a FAUCI POUCHY! PASSIONFRUIT MARGARITA - tequila, Chacho, passionfruit, mango, lime, agave, spice (I'm sipping this one as I type. Woo, Chile!) THE ORIGINAL - vodka, elderflower, mint lemonade, grapefruit OLD FASHIONED (not a pouchy) - Bourbon, sugar, angostura and orange bitters I was in the area and decided to grab some boozy sip-ups TO GO. Threw them in the freezer as soon as I got home. I couldn't wait for some slushy goodness. Will be back soon to check out a few of their cold cuts, hot subs, and desserts. __ IG: @f.hux I #yelp and I know things.

Sm California Cheesesteak
Anne-Olive N.

GW students are blessed to have so many options to eat so close to campus! I ordered the small California cheese steak and was shocked at the size because it was bigger than I thought it would be. This is a definitely a nice sized portion for lunch. The California cheesesteak comes with the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. The sub wasn't the best cheesesteak I've had, but it did the job. If the steak was seasoned, the sub would be a 5/5. The sesame bread is def a nice added touch. Great customer service and I would go back to try something different.

Sm Meatball Parmigiana
Erica S.

I placed an order via UberEats for a small meatball parmigiana sub. The sub was delivered timely but it's missing marinara sauce. Just a dry meatball and cheese sub. Tried calling Capo and was the lady who answered the phone was initially dismissive. Kept asking if I'd contacted UberEats. I explained my issue wasn't with the delivery but with the food. She spoke to a manager who questioned my claim because the meatballs are supposed to be in a container with marinara sauce. I was also told to contact UE for options. No offers for resolution!

Lg Capo Special

I went to the Capo Deli in Western Market. It was very clean and staff were very nice. I'm from Jersey so I've had my fair share of Italian Subs over the years. This sub was good, but I wouldn't say it's one of the better Italian subs I've had. The bread was very good and so was the meat, but I felt there was something missing even though I added some mayo. When I first bite into an Italian sub I get an immediate taste of the oil and vinegar while also getting those sharp onions into the mix. I didn't get that with this sub. Overall a good sub.

Small spinach wrap
Sung S.

One of the best delis around! I am not a huge sandwich/deli person, but I really enjoyed Capo. I ordered my own small spinach wrap with honey ham, capicola, provolone cheese, sweet roasted peppers, sun dried tomatoes, onions, lettuce, mayo, and honey mustard. I don't know if the combination was just superb or if the deli is just great, but it worked. They weren't shy about putting in a lot of the ingredients--very generous with the amount of meat. I especially loved the sun dried tomatoes and sweet roasted peppers, it's worth the extra charge. I only had half the small wrap and it filled me up. Definitely going back!

The waitress I had was so sweet and their guest service coordinator constantly checked in with a warm attitude. I got the focaccia and was between the girasoli and spaghetti pomodoro. I am so glad I went with my waitresses recommendation and got the girasoli! It was unlike any pasta I've ever had. Similar to a ravioli, but has a veggie puree opposed to cheese on the inside. The leek and lettuce within the lemon butter sauce was to die for, and the girasoli itself was pleasant and unforgettable. The focaccia was also SO FLUFFY. The outer crust was not too crunchy and just right. The inside is so glamorous but also feels Italian. Very clean, nice and spread out, and overall a fabulous vibe. If I'm ever back in DC, this is on my list of restaurants to be coming back to!

Unfortunately, I never got a chance to while I lived in DC, because to be honest, I never got in an Italian mood. Now that I no longer reside in the DC area, I use every visit to eat my faves and occasionally a new spot. So, after another popular (and cheaper) Italian place closed before I could finish my delivery order, I spotted L'Ardente. I ordered the famous Lasagna - their 40-layer specialty - with short rib sugo, truffle mornay, and Sottocenere Cheese. The truffle mornay added a smooth, melty, creamy cheese sauce. It is good, but I am not sure if it is worth the hype at $40 lagnasa. I think the cost is built into the work but not the flavor profile. I think the meal is better without the sauce - it made it too salty with it.

They also used bucatini noodles and I feel like not many restaurants do that and I just love how it absorbs all the sauce. Bread was delicious as always, but the cheese was just okay. Honestly I feel like the bread tasted better with the ragu sauce. Potatoes were exactly what you would expect - herby and slightly cheesy. Vibes in there are perfect - like an old style Italian homey restaurant. Service took a little while but they were also busy.

Found it to be a bit louder than I would've liked but I think it was because of the spacing between tables. Came toward the end of the night and got seated and welcomed right away. I ordered the polpette, meatballs to start. They were quite tasty, but the sauce was a bit watery. Think that's just because the meatballs themselves were pretty juicy. Heard the focaccia was a hit, so asked for some of that. I was told they didn't have any left. Which was weird, because then another server came and asked if I wanted bread. I'm glad I said yes because the focaccia is very fresh and was a great addition to the meal. For my main, I ordered the vodka pasta, which was very flavorful and very saucy. I love a good, thick vodka sauce and that's what you'll get here. The one part of the pasta I didn't really enjoy was the chicken inside the pasta. I think I would've preferred a grilled chicken option instead of the chicken that comes in the pasta. That being said, this place is a gem. The prices are great and the portions are hearty. The pasta is thick, you're really coming here for fresh noodles and ingredients. If you want to top your meal off just right, you'll get the chocolate lava cake. Very delicious! Service was good and staff was very attentive!

That said, being on this app and criticizing food is something of an oxymoron of me. I bring some of the most strict criticism to the fine dining experiences I part take in. Osteria Mozza has been on my list for sometime but getting a reservation was challenging till last year. I finally got to visit last night and honestly, I am impressed. This might be one of my top 20 dining experiences of all time. First of all I want to thank the staff for everything they did fr adjusting my reservation because I was running late, being kind when my guest accidentally dropped a glass and helping us clean. I really appreciate the kindness of the staff. Thank you so much. The place is beautiful. The aesthetic is a mix of old industrial ceilings with retro Italian architecture. Coming to the food. Nothing disappointed me even a tad bit. Everything was just amazing. Starting with the Mozzarella bar. The bread, the dips and the cheese. I was delighted tasting everything. I would just come here again alone for the Mozz Bar. Then the blue prawns were marinated and grilled to perfection. The presentation was 10/10 but the taste was 11/10. The oxtail pasta was delicious! I usually do not go for pasta but this honestly made me fall in love with pasta again. The whole branzino was seared to perfection. It was salty, the skin was crispy, the meat was flaky and cooked simply. There was a bed of herbs under the branzino that tasted out of this world. Last but not the least, the rosemary cake. I now know that one should only eat vanilla ice cream over olive oil. Out of this world! This is an experience worth every penny! 5/5 must go for special occasions!

Their happy hour is really good, so if you are in the area during those times, I would definitely go to the bar area. For appetizers, I usually get their Wagyu Beef Carpaccio - it is one of the best ones I've had. Other standouts are their Shredded Brussel Sprouts - this dish made me actually like Brussel sprouts-lol. This has avocado, toasted breadcrumbs, and pickled peppers and the Truffled Garlic Bread - so good. For main dishes, my daughter just raves about their Maine Lobster Ravioli. She loves this dish so much. It's the only dish she orders. Actually, you can't go wrong with any of their pasta dishes - Spicy Dungeness Crab, Short Rib Bolognese and Mama DePandi's Bucatini. Other mains we really enjoy is their Prime Dry-Aged Bistecca Fiorentina - this can feed two people, and it's priced at $175, but I think it's worth it. Steak is really good. Also, I really liked their Mediterranean Branzino. Cocktails are great, especially their Old Fashioned. Service has always been top notch here. Can't wait until RPM Steak opens in downtown DC later this year!

Martini Hour alert!…read more First, I think that the martini hour is absolutely genius! It runs from 5-7pm and the selections of martinis were perfect. Ambiance: the restaurant is beautiful but note that martini hour takes place in a small bar area with limited seats. Nonetheless, you can grab a few friends and make this a moment as you enjoy those perfect martini selections. Bites: there weren't much to eat at martini hour so we moved to the general area afterwards to enjoy some food. Service: the staff was amazing and very accommodating. Shoutout to Nesto, the best bartender around! Martinis: Morini Martini: I absolutely love this drink. It was crisp, refreshing, and had a little bold flavors from the white pepper. I absolutely loved this drink and would get it again Sicilian Martini: another fav! Think summer time refreshing with a hint of sweet and citrus burst from the mandarin and lemon Espresso Martini: this drink was another great selection. Freshly brewed and perfectly prepared. I loved it Least favorite: Cala Rossa. I only disliked the drink because it was very sugary and I don't really enjoy sugary drinks. Food: Rigatoni: this dish was divine! And quick note, the smaller plates were perfect serving sizes. But back to the dish. The pasta was cooked al dente and the lamb ragu was soooooooooooooo good! No seriously, it was absolutely divine. Perfectly seasoned and rich in flavors. Other members of my party enjoyed their dishes: Cappelletti and Paccheri Alla Norma, both were described as absolutely perfect.
