We ate dinner there last night and really enjoyed it. Our server was a very sweet-natured young guy and we enjoyed talking to him. My husband ordered a pasta with mushrooms dish and he said it was very good, although the portion was small. I had the vegetarian lasagna - and not only was it really delicious, but it was also a very substantial serving.
The interior was incredibly hot when we entered, so we took advantage of the good weather and sat at one of the outdoor tables. -

This place is adorable, and everything we had was absolutely delicious. My cappuccino sprinkled with chocolate powder was one of the best I've had in a while, and the Piadine #1 recommended to me by the waitress was simple but so flavorful. My friend built her own sandwich which she loved as well. They import all of their products from Italy and have a little shop section which could make good souvenirs if you are traveling like we were.

As a Pimlico local, I have been to Gastronomica a few times. In a sentence I would describe it as good but not great.
FOOD: The pizzas are sizable and will satisfy a craving but there aren't many interesting menu options here and aren't wood oven (not as delicious or crunchy). The best entrée option is the lasagna which is better than the average and reasonably priced.
SERVICE: the service can be a bit slow and sometimes doesn't always understand English. But is always friendly and serves with a smile.
VALUE: best part of Gastronomica is that it is reasonably priced with large portions
Come if you are in the area but don't make the trip out just for Gastronomica. -

This small Italian restaurant and deli near Victoria has a pretty impressive selection of aged meats and interesting cheeses. However, I was by for a meal.
The roast eggplant salad hit the spot --- marinated peppers, well-cooked eggplant (though the skin was a bit tough), and a nice balance of flavors overall.
The spinach lasagne, however, was almost inedible --- overcooked spinach that tasted like it'd been in the freezer too long, rubbery cheese, and nothing else. No pasta, no veggies, no sauce --- just a congealing spinach-cheese mass.
The clientele was fun (especially an older tweed-clad table), the waiter was reasonable, and most of the food was good --- but stay away from that lasagne.
