GIFT CERTIFICATE FOR $60.00  From Sorella Cafe in Fairfax.  Recent review:  I love Sorella Cafe. First and foremost, the staff is amazing - so friendly (genuinely, too) and accommodating. They act like they know you even if they've never waited on you before.

Diners are presented with a dish of olives and a huge hunk of Parmesan cheese to nosh on while waiting for their entrees. I recommend the gnocchi, which although aren't the best I've ever had, are so good on a cold winter night. Their salads are delicious too, and they make a mean butternut squash ravioli.

At the end of the meal, stick around for a while for a cup of tea and nibble on the complimentary gummy bears and Italian-style almond cookies that literally melt in your mouth.
