About the restaurant

Manalu is a new authentic Italian restaurant by Chef/Owner Marco Pontecorvo. The name was to combine all three of his family members names. MA for Marco, NA for Naomi, his daughter, and LU for Lucia, his wife. Manalu's goal is to bring a taste of Italy and a touch of Naples in the town, by serving authentic Italian cuisine and the original pizza Napoletana cooked in a brick oven. The atmosphere is very cozy and warm, perfect for family and friends. Manalu` also has a full bar and happy hour Mon-Fri from 4pm to 7pm. Happy hour also includes a food menu with delicious appetizers.

This is honestly the best Italian food around and the price was phenomenal. It’s a long reservation list and almost impossible to get a reservation on the weekend but it’s 100% worth it. Food was amazing, pricing was great, service was great, everything was great. Will be coming back

About the restaurant

A ground-to-glass small-batch distillery located in the heart of Montgomery County, Maryland. We offer full service dining, a locally-driven food menu, craft cocktails made exclusively with Fallen Oak spirits, and several Lone Oak draft beers.

We have four seating areas that are uniquely different - the Lawn, Perch, Tasting Room, and Montgomery County's only Speakeasy. All reservations booked online are for our Speakeasy (shhhh, don’t tell anyone!). We also accept walk-ins for the Speakeasy and the other three seating areas.

We are closed Mondays & Tuesdays. The Lawn, Perch, & Tasting room open at noon each day; our Speakeasy opens at 4pm. Please be aware that all guests of Fallen Oak must be 21 years or older. For those that are interested in booking large parties (15+ guests), we have several private event spaces that can be rented upon request.

Having been to Lone Oak my husband and I were very excited when we heard they were opening a distillery! It was such a fun experience, starting with entering the “secret passage” behind the bookcase. Drinks and food aren't cheap but worth the price!

We have dined here more than once and have never been disappointed. We are particularly partial to the "chef's special", a selection of appetizers and small dishes. There is a vegetarian and and meat-eater's version. Both are outstanding. The other interesting thing about Passage of India is the variety of Indian cuisines represented on the expansive menu. There is something for everyone and lots to explore. All is well prepared and nicely presented. Staff is friendly and informative. Highly recommended

We’ve been to La Vela many times, and it’s always outstanding. Fettuccine Bolognese, is excellent, and the roasted duck, with a few minor adaptations for my wife’s food sensitivities, is the best she’s ever had. The service is great. This time we were there for our anniversary, and we loved it.

Really lovely food and the service was unbeatable. However, for the price point, the plates were rather small.
