I didn't quite like the scallops it was too salty .My husband ordered crab cakes they were very good . Vegetables cooked to perfection .He hot pasta as one of the side instead of roasted potatoes. Our dessert what can I say was perfect . Light and full of flavor both Cannoli and Tiramisu.

I want to like this place but it is so expensive. I ordered a focaccia sandwich and a single…read morearancini. The total was $31. Fine, everything is imported. Then I opened the sandwich and it had 2 pieces of meat and 2 pieces of cheese, with a handful of arugula. This is not enough substance for the price. The meat and cheese needs to be at least double the portion to justify the price. The workers were very friendly and kind but I can't justify frequenting at that price point. $31 for a lunch that's mostly bread is just too much.

When the weather is nice, the courtyard is nice and you feel like you have escaped to Europe. The food and service are excellent too. We have been consistently impressed.

Overall - Love this spot. I go here for their outdoor patio which takes me back to Italy…read more Spicy Seafood Pasta: As for the food, it's fine. I'd expect pasta to be cooked al adente, not taste like it came out of a Chef Boyardee can but meh, I don't need the carbs anyway. It was all about the mussels, scallops and shrimp for me. Short Rib Ragu: My buddy really enjoyed it and he was pleasantly surprised when there was visible chunks of meat instead of just a meat sauce. Fried Flounder (Special): Buddy said the artichoke sauce was the highlight. Piece of flounder was big but overcooked and dry. Oyster (not pictured): East coast oyster. 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.

My God, what a true 5-star experience…read more We were in Fredericksburg for the day, and I'm so glad we decided to give Orofino a try. The cozy indoor dining room transports you to a relaxed, no-frills neighborhood restaurant you'd expect to find in Naples, Italy. The service was excellent. Our server was friendly, offered thoughtful recommendations, and checked in at just the right times. They were attentive without being intrusive. We never had to ask for plates to be cleared or flag someone down when we were ready for dessert. We started with the calamari, followed by the lasagna, and finished with the lemon cake. I also had an Aperol Spritz. Every dish tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell nothing relied on frozen ingredients or store-bought sauces. If you're looking for authentic Italian food in the Fredericksburg area, I highly recommend Orofino. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in town.

New to the area, and what an amazing experience!…read more From the outside, the restaurant looks smaller than it actually is, but once inside, it's surprisingly spacious with a warm, traditional Sicilian atmosphere that immediately makes you feel welcome. Our waiter, Jack, was an absolute superstar. He was knowledgeable, attentive, funny, and incredibly helpful with our selections. He truly made the evening special. We started with the calamari and a salad with goat cheese, walnuts, and pomegranate unfortunately, I can't remember the name of it, but it was absolutely delicious! The complimentary bread served with their infused olive oil was outstanding and worth mentioning on its own. For our entrées, my husband and I both ordered specials the Lobster Ravioli and the Halibut. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. We also enjoyed an excellent red blend wine. By that point, we had enjoyed enough wine that I completely forgot to take photos of the specials! We finished with the cannoli special dessert, which was good, though not quite as memorable as the rest of the meal. Most of all, we can't thank Jack enough for the great service, laughs, and overall experience. It's rare to find food and hospitality that work together so perfectly. We'll definitely be back very soon!

A truly exceptional dining experience at Semifreddo's today…read more Even with the restaurant sold out for its 6th anniversary celebration, the entire team delivered excellence with grace. The anniversary menu was nothing short of sensational--beautifully crafted dishes that showcased both creativity and mastery. The service staff upheld their usual standard of warm, attentive hospitality, but the kitchen deserves special recognition. The chefs operated with remarkable precision under pressure, a testament to Chef Franklin's leadership and the skill of his well‑trained culinary team. Their consistency and passion shine through in every plate. It's clear why Semifreddo's continues to stand as the best Italian restaurant in the region. A memorable experience from start to finish!!

We were visiting from outside of town. Immediately when we entered the restaurant we received…read morecondescending looks from the guests and wait staff because we were not dressed up, but there was no dress code posted at the restaurant. There was no warm welcome and we wait several minutes to even be serviced. Overall the food for the price we paid was abysmal. The lasagna looked grotesque with pasta slices slapped with ground beef and crushed tomatoes from a can with no salt, no garlic and no taste. The pizza I had ordered the crust wasnt even cooked all the way through. I ordered the beet salad and it was pathetic looking for $12. Our waitress seemed preoccupied with other tables and it seemed we were given poor service because we weren't locals or werent dressed in our Sunday best.. I would not recommend this place due to poor service and low quality food.

We had a great experience at Denim & Pearls on a Saturday night! One of the first things we…read moreappreciated was how easy it was to get a reservation, which can be tough to find on weekends. The menu offers a wide variety of options, making it easy for everyone in our group to find something they enjoyed. The atmosphere was cozy, welcoming, and perfect for a relaxed night out. The highlight of our visit was our server, Drew. He was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service from start to finish. He really helped make the evening enjoyable. Some table favorites were the pork belly and ahi tuna appetizers, the braised beef short rib farfalle and the bacon wrapped meatloaf (with local Whiffletree Farm meat). We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend Denim & Pearls to anyone looking for a great meal and outstanding service in Warrenton!

Had potential but major misses in both food and service…read more Food: my pork belly app was over cooked and rubbery. I had the flank steak and ordered it med rare and it was med to med well. Flavors/seasoning were good but major execution errors. Service: don't let them seat you upstairs. They understaff that. It took almost 10 mins to get water and drinks. We observed similar issues with other tables. My wife ordered a second glass of wine that never came. I ordered the spinach side with my steak and that never came either. Fortunately, they did not charge us for these items. At this price point these are not acceptable outcomes. Will not be back here.

All their food is excellent. I had their Pastrami Reuben (warm) on focaccia bread and it was the…read morebest tasting Reuben I have ever had, and trust me on this one, I have had many Reubens. The sandwich comes with a bag of Lays potato chips. I also had a glass of iced tea so fresh it melted the ice in my glass. This is a light meal but I was only able to eat half of my sandwich because it had so much meat on it. Their Pastrami is delicious. You order at the cash register and order is brought to your table and drink orders are refilled. Lunch is available from 11 until 2pm. There are several different sandwiches on their menu. They also have pasta, meat & fish, and salads & soups on their 11-2pm lunches.

I saw that they had a printable menu so you could sit down and look, but I didn't see it until after I panic ordered! I settled for a combo, half salad and a half sandwich. I guess I didn't read the small print where you had to be selective about the salad, so I ended up getting a Caesar salad and then I tried the chipotle avocado chicken sandwich. I also got a side of potatoes which were crispy and very delicious. The side costs extra, which was as bummer cause some places give you a side for free. The sandwich was good and had a huge chunk of chicken on it. The salad was fresh and crispy. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday night, but there was plenty of seating. All of the staff that I encountered were very friendly, they were very quick to clean our table as we finished with dishes, and I also bought a piece of bread pudding to take home, which was amazing as well.

The desserts were many and looked great. I'll be back to get that soon.

We shared the cheeseboard, the penne à la vodka, and the tiramisu. I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of the penne vodka, but it was delicious. The best part of the meal was the tiramisu because it was just the right amount of coffee in the cake and it wasn't overbearing or taking away from the flavor. The only complaint that I would have is unlike most Italian places there wasn't like a bread with oil served complementary.
