Opened by Luigi Calvi in 1943, Luigi's is one of the oldest Italian restaurants in Washington, D.C.

What originally brought Luigi its fame was pizza and, in fact, it is thought that Luigi introduced pizza to Washington. Over the years, Luigi has continually upscaled and expanded its' menu and today, under the ownership of Corrado Bruzzo, who inherited the business from his wife's family, it features fresh homemade pastas, veal, chicken and seafood dishes as well as the old standby, pizza.

Still serving from the same original location, Luigi's prides itself on serving authentic Italian food in an old-fashioned Trattoria-type atmosphere. Famous Luigi's - Bringing the best of Italy to you.
