What we say

Bring your appetite to this friendly, casual Italian restaurant
Dupont Italian Kitchen offers both indoor and outdoor seating, a menu of Italian cuisine and a full bar. The food here is plentiful but not anything to write home about. The main benefit is the expansive outdoor patio on 17th Street sidewalk. On a warm D.C. evening, with patrons sipping Italian wines, this place is the place to be.

***** Good food, but...
Posted: October 27, 2009 - Visited: October 2009
Dupont Italian Kitchen's location on 17th might just be its best feature. I went on a chilly fall night, so there was no outdoor seating, and inside the place could be nicer--older floor tiles, awkward tables and chairs that could be replaced with nicer ones. The service was fine if a bit disinterested (certainly no hot gay waiters here, the only attractive men were the customers), but the food made up for it: everyone at my table enjoyed their different meals, from pizza to pasta, even if we had a pretty small selection to choose from. I ordered a Cosmo and have to say it was the worst drink I've ever had in a restaurant--hopefully the bar upstairs has better bartenders!

***** Fabulous Italian on 17th Street - Food and Men
Posted: October 09, 2009 - Visited: October 2009
This place is perfectly located on the corner of 17th and R and provides a relaxing environment, tasty Italian cuisine, and a view of all that Dupont Circle has to offer. All first time visitors should make it a point to drop by for lunch, dinner or brunch. The food is authentic, tasty and very moderately priced. Drink specials which vary on the season are a great attraction. After dinner you just need to go to the floor above and enjoy Windows -- a gay bar -- often referred to as DIK -- Enuf said.

***** Casual Italian on the 17th Street Strip
First to Review - August 20, 2008
Very gay-popular restaurant with outdoor seating in warmer weather. Except for a terrific Caesar salad, food is rather average, but the price is right and the service is friendly. On the second floor is DIK bar, a favorite among older locals and tourists, too.
