We were a party of 7 and sat on the upper level. The table was a nice big size and had enough space around it. Food and wine were great and delivered fairly quickly. Friendly service. Prizes are on the steep side, especially for the wine.

We were in from out of town, just were looking for a place close to the metro that had reservations available. Stumbled upon Mazaro and were not disappointed at all! Amazing service and outstanding food! Was one of the best Italian dishes I’ve ever had. Also was a really neat area of town! Would absolutely come back next time I’m back in the d.c. area

Mariah was phenomenal, service was great and the manager introduced himself. We got the spaghetti carbonara, one word: Amazing. Mariah gave us a great suggestion for a Christmas pop up bar to go to afterwards. Our last night was perfect in DC. Thank you Olio e Più!!
