Girasole

How is this restaurant still in business?! First, I was meeting friends who wanted to do a wine pairing at the restaurant, I myself do not drink, but just wanted to be with them for the company. All I basked for was a glass of water. Then they brought me the food pairing, which I didn’t even want. This plate with hardly edible and very hard to cut or chew food items! When the bill came, since I did not drink, I expected just to pay for the horrid food, maybe half the price, they slapped the full $ 62!!! For a glass of filtered well water, best thing on the menu and the micro hard food! Outrageous!! Who do they think they are?!!! My friends want to stay and have dinner, I did not, but I did want to spend time with them. So I ordered the salmon, it was the driest piece of fish I have ever ha

Last night, our party of six had the pleasure of dining at Girasole, an Italian restaurant located in the charming town of The Plains, Virginia. We were celebrating my mother-in-law's retirement, and Girasole proved to be the perfect spot for our special occasion. The service was absolutely outstanding, deserving a full five stars. Our waitress, Gabriele, went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful time. Her attentiveness and friendly demeanor made us feel incredibly welcome and well-cared for. She truly contributed to making our celebration memorable. We indulged in a variety of beverages, including mixed drinks, wine, and beer, all of which were excellent. The appetizers were amazing, setting the stage for an equally impressive main course. Each dish was flavorful and beautifull

Very nice Italian restaurant. The outdoor seating area is great. Really nice setup and layout. Food was good and flavors were well balanced. My only complaint is the portion size on the bolognese, it was really small and not indicative of the price of the meal, especially when compared to the portion size of the short rib meal my wife got.

My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and delicious! Our server Gabriella had the perfect wine recommendation for what we were looking for. We sat outside on the patio and the atmosphere was really nice, but the inside is also very welcoming and homey for dining in. We would recommend the burrata for an app, our entrees were perfect, my spinach and ricotta pasta was delicious, and we each got a dessert (they all sounded amazing). Chocolate cake and blackberry chocolate chip ice cream were our dessert favorites! There is clearly so much effort and love put into every dish and this family run restaurant is definitely one of our favorites! We can’t wait to visit again!

The food was delicious. The ambiance was perfect and the service top notch!
