Best Sunday Lunch Restaurants in Chevy Chase

Corso was really excellent. The menu looked so good that I had a hard time choosing. At our table we had the whipped ricotta which was delicious and great for sharing and the arancini which we all agreed were some of the best we had had in a long time. For the mains we had the scallops and risotto, the mushroom gnocchi, carbonara and the porchetta and white beans. Everyone loved their dishes (with the exception of the carbonara which was the only slight disappointment of the night). The porchetta was especially great. We shared the canoli for dessert and they were a very good sweet end to the dinner but small and maybe not the best value. The 22ox spritzes were a good value, on the other hand.

I do recommend this place, especially for brunch, but don’t order the cheese plate. Really bad quality.

The branzino was excellent. I really like the unusual sides of falafel and cucumber salad. My order was taken promptly, but I had to wait a long time to get my check, perhaps because I was a solo diner.

Great food and service. We had two young children with us and they took lovely care of them bringing their food right away and giving them dessert as a bonus. A lovely evening was had by all.
