About Centrolina Restaurant and Market: OSTERIA Authentic, regional Italian cooking and seasonal availability is the inspiration for Chef Amy Brandwein's menu at Centrolina. Guests, with views of fresh market produce, an open kitchen and terracotta-clad wood oven, are immersed in the cooking experience as they dine.

The menu features seasonal and frequently rotating dishes that showcase regional food from all over Italy and relies heavily on what is offered in the chef-driven market, whether that's pinched beef ravioli, spaghetti alla chitarra with chanterelle mushrooms, grilled branzino or wood-roasted meat and vegetables. The beverage program features a wine list that combines Italian classics while highlighting modern producers and styles, a beer selection that stays true to Italian styles and a curated list of seasonal cocktails and spirit free options.

MERCATO At Centrolina's retail wing, Chef Amy Brandwein dons the grocer's apron, giving her guests a shopping experience that reflects her personal experiences with Italian cooking and the products and produce she loves and uses.

Imported and specialty items share counter space with fantastic local produce, meat, cheese and seafood. Grocery items include dried pasta from all over Italy as well as fresh pasta made from the Centrolina kitchen, accompanied by house-made sauces.

The dairy and produce sections are stocked with goods from farmers and artisans from Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Italian specialty items include anchovies, olives, vinegar, olive oil, salumi, imported and local cheeses and sweets. Wine and craft beer is also available for sale.
