La Panetteria Reviews List

La Panetteria

La Panetteria has been a Bethesda Landmark for more than 35 years. It has won accolades from food critics and many loyal customers for its superb menu and impeccable service. Cozy, old-fashioned Italian restaurant, serves both northern and southern Italian specialties, with homemade pasta, fresh seafood, veal and chicken dishes and best white pizza in the area. The restaurant invites diners in with a tree shaded street front awning, and an Old Italy atmosphere enhanced by a sunlit indoor atrium with graceful hanging baskets and period paintings on white washed stucco walls. The ceramic tile floor and white tablecloth complete the ambience of a true trattoria. The menu is extensive and features a wide variety of classic Italian dishes, plus daily specials like risottos, veal shank, seafood lasagna, rolattini and Zuppa. If you have a favorite Italian dish you will find it on the menu. La Panetteria means ‘the bakery’ in Italian and all the bread is baked fresh daily.

"This was a celebratory meal. Our daughter had just graduated form college and all our family was in town for the event. We let our daughter choose the restaurant and she chose La Panetteria because she thought it would be like her favorite restaurant in Rome. Everybody had a good meal and the service was fine."

"Dined here for a graduation luncheon celebration. Party of 8. Found this place on Open Table as we are from out of town. It's on a side street so it was not crowded, no problem getting a reservation as a lot of other places were booked solid. I am so glad I found this. The service was wonderful, the full menu was delightful, everyone enjoyed their meal, wine list was good and reasonable. The only downside was finding a place to park. Two parking garages across the street that were full on Sat. afternoon. Kept driving around and around waiting for a spot to open up. But once you're inside it's worth it! Enjoy!"

"this was our second trip. not as good as our first occasion. food was awesome, drinks were perfect. I believe the waitress might have been new hence our moderate service. she was very pleasant but not as attentive as she could have been. the restaurant wasn't full so certainly she wasn't being over taxed. it was brought to her attention that it was my sons birthday but no attempt was made to arrange a special dessert which was the case during our first visit. had trouble placing items on the table. all in all we will most certainly return."

"I'm pregnant and was craving freshly-made pasta (reminiscing about an amazing meal in Florence during our honeymoon). As most know, pregnancy cravings MUST be satisfied. I did some research and found good reviews on La Paneterria. The staff was very nice and attentive, but bottom line is that the meals were so-so. The pasta could have been made from a box. Hard to tell since it was drowned in oil. I do try to eat healthy so I knew that we'd be indulging in alot of carbs and fat. Unfortunately it wasn't worth the calories. Not horrible, just nothing to go back for. My older foodie friend said she went through the same search years ago, and decided the DC area does not have good Italian. Guess I'll go back to Florence next time!"

"This is the second time we have been to La Panetteria and the food was excellent both times. From the pizza, to the eggplant parm, to pasta and meat dishes, everyone enjoyed the food. The house wine was good as well, and, although they do have a good wine selection, it is slightly on the expensive side. The service was good, but a little slow (but not to the point of being annoying). Overall, we really like this restaurant and will definitely go back as soon as we can."

"Fantastic food and tremendous service. My waterglass never went below half. They didn't hover, but were always attentative to our needs. We live in Virginia and went to La Panetteria because it was convenient on the way back from a trip out with the kids. We will be driving back especially to go to the restaurant."

"We had brought my parents there for their 60th wedding anniversary. I had made the reservation on line and made that as a comment. I never mentioned it to our waiters when we came in but sure enough after dinner they brought a couple cannollis out with candles for their anniversary. The food was very good and filling. No one left hungry, that's for sure. Thank you so much,"

"I'll be honest, we ended up at La Panetteria almost accidentally. My boyfriend's father is in town from Spain and wanted pasta for dinner so I looked on Yelp and saw the Olazzo had good reviews. Unfortunately that had a long wait which brought us to La Panetteria which I like to refer to as, "little old Italy". It's very cute and cozy, a great place for family dinners. The food is also fantastic, best spaghetti alla carbonara I've ever had in the States! I highly recommend this restaurant, especially to those who love mom & pop styled eateries."

"Yet another delicous meal at our favorite Italian restaurant and we were glad that, on Valentines Day, the food and service were still just as good and Panetteria didn't succumb to the "Three Courses for large amount of money" syndrome. A nice touch were the roses handed out to women and the valet parking which they normally have only Fridays and Saturdays. Our desserts (we had to have chocolate of course!) of chocolate mousse cake and chocolate eclair were delicious as were the Trota Amalfitana (which my husband orders all the time) and the Meditteranean Seabass special. Lots of yummy garlic in the mushroom, white bean, and asparagus appetizer special. There's a reason we're regulars!"

"This is a great little spot for date night. The ambiance was sweet, the vibe was good but it wasn't too loud. The food was better than average, although the lambshank was a little greasy.

"Food was mediocre. Male had special of the night of lobster and crab with fettucine. Seafood was tough and dish was tasteless. Female had trout which was OK. Table bread was terrible, no crust and very gummy. Not worth the price."
