What people say, in short
Sfoglina recommendations cover its DC restaurants, including the explicitly praised Van Ness location. A diner names its cacio e pepe and vodka-sauce pasta, while other brand recommendations include meatballs, short-rib ravioli and garlic bread without consistently naming an outlet. One commenter considers the experience elevated without being prohibitively expensive. Dissenters prefer alternatives, and another enjoys the food but dislikes the carbonara's style.
