Il Radicchio

It's been a few years and unfortunately I don't think this is a spot for pasta anymore. We came in on a Friday night and the inside wasn't packed at 7. We got smushed next to two other two top tables- I get wanting to save larger tables for other large groups but it's super uncomfortable to be sitting hands distance away in a small back corner when half the rest of the restaurant is empty.Bruschetta is still good but bread basket got smaller. As mentioned, the all you can eat pasta is a rip off- might as well go to Olive Garden. You get all you can eat noodles, which we all know a box of is about 2$ at the store. The least they could do is give 50% off each extra sauce you order to make it slightly worth it. The spaghetti and meatball is just two meatballs cut in half to make it seem like it's 4. Pasta quality was good but meatballs were very grey and grainy.The biggest let down is the lasagna changed completely- while it appears larger, the sauce they use now is completely different than the one we loved from 2017-2022. It had chunks of celery and carrots and just was not good.Maybe a spot to grab pizza from still but definitely no longer a place I'd crave pasta from.

Got takeout which was easy to order online. I really like their concept of the build your own pasta! I got penne with bolognese. I've been trying to find an authentic bolognese in nova (where there's less tomato) and have been struggling to find one. This is still pretty tomato-y but it's getting closer to what I've been looking for! I would go back to try another one of their sauces

I've never had such bad service in my life. I would've given 0 stars if I could. The employee was EXTREMELY RUDE AND THREATENING

I've strolled by here enough to glimpse the faux candle light flickering off the wine glasses of a merry group of 4 dining on the outdoor patio. It looked warm & inviting.I ordered the chicken parm ($20) + bruschetta ($11). I spotted the all you can eat pasta and suggested it to my partner who was famished. My food was basic and filling. Just as I expected for the price point. What leads me to the poor review is a mixture of their misleading menu + nonchalant attitude of server. When I spotted the "all you can eat pasta", my partner was suspicious, too good to be true. We hailed our server and asked for clarification - crystal clear- it was all you can eat. When my partner tried to flag for his 2nd filling of pasta - woopty do- you're charged for the sauce. We called the server and he backtracks "oh it says on the menu only the noodle". We ask him to point out to us where on the menu it's written---and he searches and says - it's not there. No acknowledgment of the misinformation let alone an apology. I still tipped out of societal pressures. Yes, I can afford the sauce. I want to say it's the principle. But it's more than that. My working poor immigrant parents hated dining out because of all the huge hidden costs + small unsaid cultural etiquettes. I think we went to Chili's twice a year MAX.Be forthcoming with your menu. And don't ever try to make people feel stupid for not deciphering the cryptic code in which you + your menu speaks.

This restaurant has the best Italian food I have found in the area. The service was superb and they met all of our requests. We were a table of 10, which can be challenging but they shined. This is a small restaurant so there is not the loud noise you find in other places, so you can carry on a conversation without having to yell. I can't wait to go back.

Talk about a delicious and authentic local Italian spot! I came here to celebrate my birthday on a Friday evening and had the best dinner and dining experience. We started off with the insalate de mele and it was fresh with perfectly ripe grapes and apples topped with a subtle and refreshing Prosecco dressing which I loved. Next we ordered the calamari which was chewier than I expected but was served over a bed of arugula and white beans that added a delicious savory flavor. Then, we split a 12" pizza with fresh mozzarella, olives, mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes and a penne salmone. Both were excellent but wow...the penne salmone was my absolute favorite. I could eat it everyday! The food already makes ill radicchio one of the best Italian spots in the DMV, but the indoor ambience of the restaurant adds such charm. We got a little table for two perched in the windowsill and we enjoyed having our own private nook and the cute decor and painting of chickens on the wall. Would highly recommend for a memorable and authentic dining experience!

We came here around 530 on a Friday and were able to get a table with no problem despite it being a small restaurant. The bread is free and great but the real crazy part about this place is the all-you-can-eat pasta. You can get the pasta refills but the sauce will cost you. The radicchio e salsiccia and carbonara was solid. The best one was the Alfredo pesto. You are not beating the price for decent pasta anywhere, I would definitely go back.

I was visiting from out of town and my friends and I decided to try this Italian restaurant. We were seated right away and our server was very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered a classico pizza, orechiette dish, and Lasagña. Unfortunately, the people who consumed the pizza and the orechiette became very nauseous after dinner and for this reason, I would not go back.

Charming tiny spot for authentic Italian food. Extensive red wine list. Bread was a good starter on the house. You'll have olive oil and red peppers ready at your table. Highly recommend the caprese if you crave mozzarella like I do. Spaghetti and meatballs hit the spot. Meatballs were heavy and the melted cheese was a nice complement. Tomato sauce was hearty and had little pieces of meat in it. Lobster ravioli had delicious Smokey flavors. The vodka sauce complimented it well. Maybe went a little too far with the pecorino Romano cheese. Good prices for high quality Italian in Arlington.

No person should ever give this establishment any money. The disrespect I received from the manager was appalling. We had a reservation and were seated in the corner upstairs in a cramped 4 top for 5 people. We asked to move tables and the employee said the tables were the same size which was not the case, he then yelled at me "Wanna bet". I said what and he repeated it again even louder. I then said we will go somewhere else and he rudely said that's fine go somewhere else.
