    Iceland is amazing. Everywhere you go, you are treated to breathtaking views, interesting features, and lovely people. But you know what Iceland doesn't have? Good pizza. Or Italian food in general. There are several places attempting it, but something is just off. The sauce isn't what we are used to. Why am I talking about pizza in Iceland? Because I had recently come back from a 9-day stint there, and flew into Dulles very late in the day. By the time we cleared customs (which was a mess) and got our bags, it was late. It was even later by the time we caught an Uber to our car and began a journey back home. After 9pm, there isn't much open, especially on a Sunday night. Thankfully, by pulling up my trusty Yelp app, I was able to find this local NY pizza style place that was open until 10pm and decided to go get it. My wife and I were definitely their last customers. Not wanting to make them make anything from scratch as they were already cleaning up, we ordered from the available pizza choices on display. You could almost see their appreciation as the gentleman helping us loaded us up with garlic knots and selected the largest slices for us. I had two sicilian pieces, one pepperoni and one cheese. My wife got the knots to share and a slice of bacon pizza. In a matter of about 5 minutes, emerged perfectly re-heated pizza and knots for us to enjoy. The sicilian had that slight crispiness on bottom from the re-heat that you actually love, but was pillowy and cheesy. It was great. My wife's slice was also perfectly heated up, and our garlic knots almost tasted like they were fresh. The garlic and butter was very present, and most importantly, EXCELLENT pizza sauce for dipping. The sauce is boss. I don't live in this area, but would definitely recommend Buon Appetito to locals and travelers alike for a local owned pizza joint, that while typical in it's menu and offerings, does a great job! So great, that I didn't get any pizza pics, because I scarfed it down fast.

    After traveling abroad for 10 days, we arrived late night at the Dulles airport, Ubered back to our car and did a quick Yelp search for places open late. So happy we were directed to Buon Appetito! The owner was really kind to us. We came in about 30 minutes before they closed and they had already started their cleaning routine, but quickly stopped to help us. We didn't want to ask them to prep anything, so we ordered some already made slices. I got a meaty topping slice and an order of garlic knots. Both the pizza and knots were perfectly re-heated. The bacon was crispy but not burnt. Plenty of toppings, but not overly heavy as to make the crust soggy. The garlic knots tasted fresh, even though it was the last batch (and a big one at that). I think the highlight was their red sauce. Very robust flavor and paired perfectly with the knots and pizza crust. It was the perfect place for our late night pizza cravings before traveling back to Greensboro.

    From the outside, you wouldn't think much of this unassuming hole in the wall place like Buon Appettito. But I hate to break it you my Yelpers, this place offers some of the best pizza and pasta dishes in this side of town. Service: we come here often and every time; we are usually met with friendly and accommodating service. The owner is especially nice and he was the one that recommended our go to dish which is the linguini tutto mare. Food: the NY style pizza never disappoints. But the star of place to me are their pasta dishes. I especially like their linguini tutto mare dish with red sauce. The pasta comes with a side salad and garlic bread. And it comes loaded to the brim with seafood. I'm talking mussels, jumbo shrimp, scallops, clams... all tasting fresh and goes well with the pasta. It will be hard to deviate from this dish but I'll be back soon and will be trying their other pasta dishes.

    I had no idea this place existed and came because I found it on yelp. The beginning was a bit of a struggle when I asked what was exactly in a meal but then I believe the owner overheard and made sure I was happy and content which I was because oh my goodness, his actions were over the top. We ordered a large cheese pizza, mozzarella sticks and garden salad which was big enough for two people. Every person that walks in, he knows and hugs and asks how life has been. Truly amazing service.

    Yum. Everyone wants that burned flavor. Right? RIGHT???

    I dunno why this site didn't post pics. Read my previous review. Whole thing burned. Check your pizzas at pickup. Never got this on delivery.

    been here enough for the staff to recognize our faces every week and give us me and my friends little nicknames. great family owned business. always so affordable and delicious. i will say, the pasta (carbonara in my case) was very heavy/saucy and difficult to finish alone. portion was massive though! orders never take more than 5-10 minutes at most and will customize to your liking! great for friends and family to sit around and enjoy some dinner

    This place is legit. True Italian place serving thin crust pizza and various Italian dishes such as eggplant parm, ravioli, and spaghetti. We came here for the pizza and kept coming back for the pizza and their other dishes if we feel like it. But the star is the pizza. It's a hole in the wall place so don't expect much thrills and frills. Service is quick and straightforward.

    This place has some of the best pepperoni pizza I've had in a while. The cheese was gooey, and the crust had just the right amount of chewiness. The service was a bit slow, but the pizza was worth the wait.

    I recently saw that Buon Appetito was in the running for best pizza in Northern VA in the NOVA Magazine and wanted to give it a try, so I came in one day with a foodie friend who has been eating here for years. The place has the look and feel of the typical neighborhood Italian/pizza/sub joint. Staff was friendly, owner was very nice. Offerings are immense and great! They have lots of pies already made to get a fresh, heated slice from. They can make anything you want fresh also. They also have plenty of unique and interesting items in their menu, like a baked ziti style dish that I got, called "luna (something)" it was really good. Their red sauce is amazing! They even sell is by the jar! Their pizzas were good. The crust was spot-on! Toppings were of a high quality too. Meatballs were really good too. Overall, I enjoyed it and I'd definitely recommend stopping in for those seeking out true NY style pizza.

I'm usually not a white wine drinker, but my fiancé ordered a glass of Terre d'Abruzzo Pecorino, and I was pleasantly surprised. It was incredibly crisp, bright, and refreshing--one of the rare white wines I'd happily order myself. For dinner, we had the Il Misto in garlic sauce and the Linguini Vongole in garlic sauce. A fun touch was that they come around with freshly grated Parmesan and will keep sprinkling it until you tell them to stop. The Il Misto was loaded with a generous variety of seafood, and the garlic sauce leaned creamy without feeling too heavy. The Linguini Vongole was equally enjoyable--the clams tasted fresh with a pleasantly briny flavor that wasn't overly "fishy," and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. Overall, this was a satisfying Italian dinner with quality seafood, attentive little touches, and a wine that unexpectedly won me over. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

Tables were kinda jammed together. Service was great though as the waitress was always stopping by to see what else we needed for our meals. Our table got a bit crowded for 3 of us, but that's probably because we're pigs.

They were good, nice and fresh but overpriced imo. Fennel Salad (not pictured): Got the vinaigrette on the side. Needed more fennel. Too sweet imo. Little less honey and little less sugar in the dressing America, . Oranges were the highlight. If I were to get it again, I'd ask for both the hot honey & vinaigrette on the side and ask for extra fresh cracked pepper to even out the sweetness of the dressings.

The restaurant itself is old school Italian with the drippy candles in wine bottles and dated decor. It could definitely use a facelift - and still maintain that classic Italian restaurant vibe.

I will start off by saying that I had low expectations given the track record of non-chain Italian restaurants I've tried since living in northern VA of which 85% have been terrible (remember I'm from NJ where Italian food should be the state food). But I said YOLO, crossed my fingers and ordered the marsala via GrubHub. The moral of the story is that I was PLEASANTLY SURPRISED by Cantina D'Italia overall because the marsala was pretty tasty, spaghetti cooked almost perfectly, garlic bread with cheese perfectly seasoned and cheesy and they sent an added little unexpected bonus of a pretty side salad with a homemade vinaigrette and fresh Italian bread and butter! Oh and the portion was HUGE! Totally got 2-3 meals out of it. Cantina D'Italia has given me hope ... or I should say at least gave me an Italian restaurant I just might frequent and explore all the other menu options :)

People avoid certain foods for religious reasons, ethical reasons, health reasons, or allergies. Serving a completely different item without proper verification is a serious failure. In a diverse community like Northern Virginia, restaurants must understand that dietary restrictions and food choices deserve respect and careful attention.
