    Dirty booth and toe kick

    We visited Bertucci's recently on a Friday at 5pm for the first time in a few years. We were seated right away. The restaurant was not too busy. While the service was friendly and prompt, when refilling ice tea glasses the server took the original glasses away with straws, refilled them, and brought them back. This is highly unsanitary. Either bring a small pitcher to the table or bring fresh glasses. Do not take used glasses and straws to the counter to refill them. Please train staff appropriately! The bread was hot and fresh but our pizza was not hot. The food tasted mediocre (needed more seasoning in pizza sauce and more mozzarella). Croutons on salad were stale. The overall concern was regarding cleanliness of restaurant. Heavy dust was on HVAC duct work, light fixtures and ledges. Windows were filthy on inside and out. The sides of booths were dirty and our table had tiles that had broken away from wall and just held in place by table. There were crayon marks all over the wall and well as other unknown marks. The Parmesan cheese jar was disgustingly dirty which I didn't notice until the end or I'd have said something to the server. The plastic glasses should be retired. They are opaque from too many trips through the washer and are scratched. Bacteria can embed in those scratches. The table was sticky and menus were stained with food. We tried hard to be forgiving but the more I thought about all that I was looking at the sicker I felt for having sat through that dinner. Bertucci's once was a "go to" place for great food and atmosphere. We were disappointed by the mediocre food and filthy atmosphere.

    came here as a last minute dinner choice and was slightly disappointed. we came in an hour before closing and it took about 10-15 minutes to be seated/ acknowledged. everyone seemed busy closing so it was understandable but there was also maybe one other table dinning, so not busy. we were sat and when the waiter brought our drinks out she brought room temperature water. i asked for ice and never got it but i just thought that was odd. service was not great but nothing terrible was done the food was also not great. ordered the chicken alfredo and it was very bland. we cracked salt on top of it and it helped but took 2-3 bites and was over it. also ordered a large pizza and only ate one slice, the sauce on the pizza was super salty. my friend loves eating here and even he was disappointed so i am willing to give it another try but this say was definitely a miss.

    Solid lunch and happy hour spot that is a bit on the pricier side. I appreciate the bread and oil to start the meal, but do keep in mind most menu items are quite bland. I got the Mac & Cheese which resembled more of an Alfredo. Taste was decent, but nothing to write home about. However, the service is great and is very accommodating to all guests - especially good for big groups. The ambiance is a bit dark - I would definitely prefer if there was better lighting or more sunlight peeking into the restaurant. Overall, would be back to try their wings and drinks, but will stay away from the pastas.

    Veggie and half chicken/broccoli and half plain cheese.

Since I went on a Saturday I felt compelled to do the cheese wheel experience. Where they cook fettuccine pasta inside a giant wheel of cheese. Added a protein option as well for a lil more substance as well. The dish as incredible! The cheese sauce was so rich and creamy and I def need to come back and try it with the chicken. My server told me I should ask for the chicken blackened (the chicken is $9 but if you get it blackened it's $2 extra). The price for the pasta on its own before adding a protein was competitive when you compare the portion size. Be warned that the cheese wheel experience is only available Thurs-Saturday but it's so fun! It's akin to going to a Mexican restaurant that offers tableside guac or going to a hibachi restaurant! Can't beat the show! This place is great to go for a date, special occasion, whatever! Easily one of the best Italian spots in Northern Virginia!

The salad I could eat on the RW menu was incredible ! I'd have that again with some protein. My blackberry tequila cocktail was also excellent. Where I struggled is the gluten free pasta with seafood they could make gf df was ... OK. I appreciate that food costs are crazy high now and I can't imagine how hard it is for restaurants right now !! So please know I'm empathetic. But it had 1 shrimp 1 clam and 4 mussels. The rest were calamari rings which were incredibly rubbery. The GF pasta was cooked OK but it was pretty stuck to each others. The red sauce was .. so so. Also after having had SO much seafood this week for RW it really stood out to be how strong it smelled fishy compared to allllll the other calamari / fish / oysters / hamachi crudo / dover sole / branzino / whole head on shrimp etc I've eaten over the last 10 plus days... like it substantively smelled strong and pungent. Needless to say I didn't finish it. They were kind and provided a lemon filled sorbet for desert and i appreciated that- it was a little too sweet for me and the other RW deserts seemed just Ok... I had mentioned we had 3 birthdays on deck and they saw the gift bags- so our server acknowledged it at the start of the meal that we mentioned it on the resi-but surprised absolutely nothing came of it... Then when they were lifting a sauce to remove it from the table - a lot of it spilled into an almost full glass of wine (fair to say it may have been my friends fault as she helped hand the dishes over) and we asked if they could replace it, and they just charged us for a second glass... Music was a little too loud albeit GREAT pop music selections, but appreciated the brightness of the windows. I won't be back unless someone insists but honestly people adore it here so glad they have a following :)

Tina took the bar to another level when it comes to managers welcoming and checking in on their guest! Hands down!!!

Midnight at Tuscany, Lemon Mascarpone Cake, which was my favorite of them all, the zappoles needed some kid of butter in the mixture...was a bit too bland for me...and the ricotta strawberry cheesecake.

We were pleased to find that house pastas were half off on Mondays. What a deal! That said, the restaurant is a little on the pricey side, so the half off pastas made the bill a little more bearable at the end of the meal. All our dishes were delicious; I ordered Godfather Ragu and it hit the spot nicely. Our server, Christian, was thoughtful, professional, and prompt without being overbearing. The GM Rodney was considerate, checked in on us several times, and helped the staff with dishes and bussing tables when available. The restaurant also honors a 10% off military discount.

I wish I had been warned about the bread by the server because I can't tolerate spicy foods. It's ok that the menu had changed- my favorite lobster dish was gone. And the wine that we ordered was not available ( it was as explained that a new wine list was being printed- so to taste the wine from DOURA valley again was not going to be possible ). Our meals were good mine was the fried shrimp and my husband's was pasta and sausage - he commented that he would have like a little less sauce and more pasta ( being Italian he likes pasta and I noticed that there was only a bit on the plate) I had told the server that we were celebrating our anniversary- after dinner she came out with a tray of desserts and said we would like you to have a dessert to celebrate your anniversary. So we picked on to share and asked for a cup of coffee. We mentioned that was a nice gesture for the restaurant. We discovered later that it was not a gesture at all. The dessert was added to our bill. All and all it was a nice evening out. We will go again in about a year or two to look at their new menu and wine list. I am hoping for an improvement. If not.

Community There's a strong community feel here -- from the welcoming tone of the staff to the loyal local customer base. The restaurant reflects a family-first ethos that shows up in both service style and operating approach. Pro tip: Check the hours before you go. They keep limited days and times -- mostly late lunch and dinner service -- which reflects their family values and operating philosophy.
