Masseria
"Masseria,is a celebration of big, harmonious flavors and the finest Italian cooking. It earned a Michelin star within Washington, DC’s first-ever guide. The restaurant’s name carries a heartfelt meaning, defining the charming agricultural farm of the Puglia region, which is heavily rooted in Stefanelli’s heritage. Taking the pretense out of fine dining and keeping it to just a whisper through its service. Entering into a handsome courtyard with relaxed seating, Masseria, an exclusive restaurant for 60 guests, combines the raw and simple look of an Italian country estate, the industrial grit of the Union Market district, and the undeniable chic of its fashion-savvy chef-owner."

This was the best meal I’ve had with my wife in Washington DC, and I can’t believe it was take out. The staff were very friendly and professional and allowed me to wait at the bar for my pickup order. At home the meal included heating and preparation tips which was an excellent touch. A lot of care was put into how well the food would travel and reheat and the restaurant did an amazing job. Every course was perfect and my wife and I were stunned at how transcendent every single component was. We were remiss because we’ve always wanted to eat here in person but both the pandemic and getting childcare has prevented us. After this experience we will absolutely order again and hopefully be able to finally dine in person soon. I can’t recommend their “a casa” service enough, and also recommend adding their desert course.
One of the best meals I've had in my life. So many incredible dishes: cheesy doughnuts, octopus with artichokes, truffle risotto, pumpkin ravioli. The non alcoholic cocktail pairing was a really nice touch ofr my pregnant wife. We did the chefs counter optiin and were able to view the kitchen. Highly recommend as a really pricey yet memorable meal.
Masseria didn’t disappoint. I had a lovely birthday dinner here. The service was top notch, the restaurant was beautiful, and the food and drinks were amazing. We added the foie gras mini cannoli, which was SO worth it. They even sent us on our way with a gift bag with some goodies. Everything was perfect.
Confusing upsell process when you first arrive. Most dishes were good — not great — but not particularly voluminous inflation, I’m sure. The duck was NOT good. Tough. Tasted like it was pulled out of the Anacostia after subsisting off mud water and cigarette butts for a lifetime. There was a pickled carrot that was quite tasty. If it had been just a little larger than half a cashew see photo with circle, then Masseria would be cruising at four stars for me. The desserts were good no doubt. We came hungry. We left … still pretty hungry. But we “checked that one off the list .” Not to rag too hard on the restaurant — maybe it was an off night — but I polled my partner after the meal: “Would you have been more satisfied with that for $500 or a gut-bomb Chipotle burrito bowl for $30, using the remaining $470 for two months of a personal trainer for two to kick the burrito bowl?” Of course, it was an obvious choice for her. Hope this helps. Gotta run to meet the personal trainer!
Masseria was one of my favorite tasting menus in DC. We sat at the chef’s counter and got the tasting menu and wine pairing. The meal starts with a homemade kombucha and only gets better. We had 8 dishes beginning with bread, and following up with various plates including a fish, octopus, 2 pastas, and duck. I especially loved the beet dish and linguine I really really loved the linguine. They finish things off with a gift bag including some desserts and olive oil. Atmosphere and service were both great. 5 stars.
Fancy and boring. I sat at the bar and ordered a la carte. Apart from some amuse-bouche on the house, which were mediocre at best, I got a pasta & mushroom course, good but nothing to write home about, and an oxe with textures. The meat was satisfying but way too tough; the tendon chicharrón it came with was the most interesting bit. I cannot omit to mention that while DC is boiling at nearly 100F, this restaurant keeps two propane heaters on full blast in broad daylight—polluting, and wasteful. When we inquired with the waitstaff, they replied the heaters were there to “light” the patio. I guess they have never heard of light bulbs.
Birthday lunch. This is probably the most unique Italian spot I’ve experienced so far and it’s obvious why they earned a Michelin star. Ambiance is great inside and the outdoor seating area is a nice touch. Cigars are available outside too!Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: Yes
Very nice place, if you seat outside the lighting in the afternoon makes for a great photo lighting. Service was on point, really, just what you'd expect from such a place.
This was an awful experience. I wish I had read the reviews before booking a reservation. I’m not sure how this restaurant earned a Michelin star but assume it won’t last. From start to finish, it was bad. We were seated in an area that was clearly not suitable. It looks as though the space should only be used for seating when the weather is perfect. We didn’t receive a welcome drink that everyone keeps talking about and noticed that other diners did. Our waiter never once asked us how the food was or I would’ve told him, and didn’t even eat the last course since it was terrible. We had to wait multiple times for drinks and was ready to leave halfway through. I’ve been to nearly every Michelin restaurant in the area and have always had a great experience. This was not great, or even good. Don’t waste your time or money
Went to Masseria with my mom while she was visiting last weekend. We previously ordered the Apertivo tasting with the cocktail tasting. Everything was delicious as expected, but was even more impressed with the exceptional and friendly service. My favorite bite was the Arancini pictured on the plate in the bottom left. The cocktails are amazing, their sour Cherry old fashioned was to die for. Will be attempting to make at home! Lovely treat for when a friend/loved one is visiting!
