    Filomena does not disappoint! Always perfectly cooked pasta, chicken and seafood. The place is already decorated for Christmas which makes it quite an experience with a polar bear dressed in his best and Santa not to mention all the streamers and stuff hanging from the ceiling. No place like it. Only downside is they fill the place up and it gets tight and warm down in that basement. A must for any trip to DC and Georgetown!

    We were celebrating the engagement of our son to a wonderful woman. I had told the restaurant why we were there and they were especially accommodating. Our server did not rush us through ordering and the food arrived in a well timed manner. The food was excellent- hot and fresh. We ordered dessert and it arrived with the word Congratulations written in chocolate sauce around the plate. It was an all around great time.
