Italian cuisine with friends and family.
We are a Bethesda community favorite, attracting diners from all over the DC Metro Area who are looking for wonderful Italian cuisine.
Cheese lasagna is yummy and a generous portion. LOVE the sauce, it's so lovely and flavorful, my favorite kind of meatless, simple-ingredient tomato sauce. The bread that came with the lasagna is crusty, hearty, and delicious. Also, I ordered a side salad, and the house vinaigrette dressing is TO DIE FOR. I tend to judge restaurants by their salad dressings, and Olazzo's is exactly my style. I just moved to the area and I am happy to discover this wonderful restaurant. Delicious food and good value. Checks all the boxes! I will definitely be back! Thank you!

The Gnocchi Bolognese was not very good... had chopped vegetables and was not really a sauce more so just beef. Small container of dressing for the House Salad, not enough. Was a bit pricey and I was disappointed. I wouldn't recommend.

Linguine and sausage is fantastic. The ingredients are fresh and the texture is so good, Not mushy gushy. The lasagna is very good and flavorful. The best dish is the gnocchi and bolognese sauce. My god this sauce is like homemade and just perfect. I appreciate finding this Italian food so much. My in laws are Italian and they enjoy it too.

Most restaurants always have shrimp alfredo but not my favorite shrimp with pesto sauce. The shrimp pesto pasta at this restaurant is delicious , and light with at least 7-8 shrimp and flavor- highly recommend!

Overall a very good restaurant, and everything is of good quality, but so far I'm finding that I absolutely love half of the dishes and find the other half to be meh (it's not quality of the ingredients or preparation; it's just the recipes are meh). The half of the things that I absolutely love are enough to make this a go-to. The Chicken Cardinale and the Lasagna are absolutely amazing for example. They have the absolute best brownie you will find online or in a restaurant. The chicken parm, wedding soup, and garlic bread are edible but fall into that "meh" category. Nothing here is bad, it's just that it's not universally great. Five stars because with some experimenting you can find what you like and have a great meal every time you order.
