Tucked inside the supremely elegant Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner, Maestro is a culinary work of art. Power brokers and sophisticates flock to this regal dining room complete with rich, dark woods and priceless artwork. This refined restaurant’s menu reads like a love letter to the cuisine of Italy, celebrating the intoxicating flavors and cooking styles of the country. Two distinct menus, along with an exceptional tasting menu, encourage diners to mix and match. Those who prefer the classics will want to sample La Tradizione, where favorite Italian dishes are enhanced with the chef’s signature modern pizzazz. Diners who want to embark on a palate-pleasing journey should look to L’Evoluzione for inspiration, which showcases the chef’s talent and revolutionary approach to Italian cooking. Presentation is everything at Maestro, and the service here is peerless. The extensive wine list is easily navigable with the assistance of the award-winning sommelier.
