Il Mulino New York is now open in DC at 1110 Vermont Ave, NW and seeking professional staff who are interested in working in a classy, upscale environment. Various positions available in both the front and back of house. Please fax resume to 202-293-1150; ATTN: David. Visit www.ilmulino.com for more information about the restaurant.

I hear everyone on the pricing - but lunch is more reasonable and they started serving it today.

On the menu: paninis, pastas, salads, individual pizzas, sliced steak, branzino, filet of sole, and more.

They also do prix fixe at lunch: two courses for $23 or three courses for $27. Optional wine pairings are available for an additional $13.

And finally, the restaurant serves complimentary pasta at the bar from 5:00 - 6:30pm.

Danielle, could you please post a sample menu with prices? The Il Mulino Web site is sort of inadequate on that front.

I have PDFs but i'm having trouble uploading them! i'll see what i can do.

Il Mulino New York officially opens for dinner tonight, and will start serving lunch in the next few weeks.

If you're in the mood for rich, comforting pasta and Italian food this is definitely the place. The signature Sardinian langoustines are deliciously simple, served a few ways: sauteed in garlic and olive oil and served over spinach (my personal favorite!), served in a creamy risotto, and many other ways.

Check out the head chef demonstrating them and a few other dishes on FOX5's What's Cooking this Thursday, March 1 at around 9am.

All best,

Danielle

Hi all,

Just want to let everyone know that D’Acqua is now open! The extensive menu from Chefs Febbraro and Ricchi focuses on fresh seafood, and has plenty of pasta dishes and meat options as well. Late night and bar menus are both available. The former Signatures space has gotten a makeover to reflect an Italian coastal bistro – complete with sparkly murano glass wallpaper, a water wall, and most importantly, the “market” display showcasing the fresh seafood of the day. Details below.

All best,
