Reviews for The Espositos Restaurant in Fairfax, VA
There?s a lot I can say about this place but to keep it simple. Their food is absolutely amazing and authentic as I went with... people who lived in Italy. I will always come back. Read more
I was very impressed with my experience here. It was nostalgic of growing up in long island and going to a family owned Italian... restaurant. Checkered tablecloths, sweet service and amazing food. We had the fried calamari, pizza and lasagna and everythingwas so good. I have to say I can't remember the last time I had a lasagna that I enjoyed that much. Well definitely be addingthis gem to out list of regular restaurant spots. Read more
I have them a 4 star, but should have been 3.5 and now I'll tell you why. The food is always good but the spaghetti red sauce... but a bit bland. The carbonara sauce on the other hand was very good. The monkfish was delicious, but they had run out so I wasunable to try that. But my biggest problem was the attention the wait staff gave us. They were nice enough but when the foodcame, no offer of Parmesan cheese over the pasta, and had to ask for our water, and drinks to be replenished when the glasseswere empty. That's my only complaint, which is minimal because they do have great pizza, and generally speaking their food isalways good. Read more
A nice little and humble restaurant that has some of the best Italian food I ever had in the USA!! I specifically had the... gnocchi with pesto and it was heavenly!! The sauce was creamy, very flavorful, tasted like freshly made pesto, and smelled freshtoo!! The gnocchi was tender (in a good way) and were so soft!! The servers we also very nice!! Over all this place is amazingfor the quality of the food without the insane prices!! Read more
Our favorite local Italian restaurant. A neighborhood staple; wonderful family-owned place. The mussels and home made pastas are... our go-to items. Read more
Loved it! We ordered Spaghetti Carbonara (bacon) and the Linguini Vongole (clams in white sauce). The spaghetti was... fantastic-creamy but light. The bacon was flavorful and not oil or salty. The vongole was so tasty. It?s the dish I seek toorder when eating Italian out. The salads were very nice too. I?m so glad to have finally made it here. Both meals were lessthan $20. Service was top notch. Thank you!! Read more

The food is amazing and tasty. It?s cozy restaurant with authentic atmosphere and generally welcoming people. There is only 1... ?but?, and it is our waiter. I have never seen the grumpiest and rude waiter. Never smiled once, and acted as if we?re doing hima favor by coming to the restaurant. That service left bitter taste, but overall the food was great. Next time we come, we willjust ask for another waiter. Read more
