Bibiana Osteria Enoteca
1100 New York Avenue, NW
From the Washingtonian: “Meatballs are everywhere these days, but the ones at this
intimate, modern-Italian dining room are standouts. New chef Loris Navone cribs from
his Italian grandmother’s recipe, mixing ricotta into veal, pork, and beef. Mounded atop
mascarpone-enriched polenta, the “appetizer” makes a small meal. Fritto misto is both
airy and tender. Pastas such as rosemary tagliatelle with Bolognese and ricotta cavatelli
with a lamb-and-kale ragout are wonderfully comforting.”
Buredo
825 14th Street, NW
Buredo (pronounced "bur-EE-doh") is a local DC establishment featuring handheld,
burrito-size sushi rolls, bowls and salads feature Asian and other globally-inspired
ingredients and flavors. Using seasoned rice and traditional nori, they roll their sushi
burritos to order - perfect for the health-conscious crowd on the go looking for good, clean
eating with a twist.
Centrolina
974 Palmer Alley, NW
Authentic, regional Italian cooking and seasonal availability is the inspiration for the menu
at Centrolina. Guests, with views of fresh market produce, an open kitchen and terracotta-
clad wood oven, are immersed in the cooking experience as they dine. The menu
features seasonal and frequently rotating dishes that showcase regional food from all
over Italy and relies heavily on what is offered in the chef-driven market, whether that’s
pinched beef ravioli, spaghetti alla chitarra with chanterelle mushrooms, grilled branzino
or wood-roasted meat and vegetables.
