Check out this short video of Facci featured in Baltimore Summer Restaurant Week 2024.
Gino Palma-Esposito is the chef at this comfortably stylish bistro, which became an instant hit by hitting all the right notes. It’s chic but accessible, and seems to know that kids don’t need to be babied with crayons and chicken fingers, which is why they love it.
A Little Italy
Italian food may be the current “it” cuisine, but that doesn’t mean there are a lot of great dishes commanding our attention. Facci, a new restaurant and wine bar in Laurel (7530 Montpelier Rd.; (301) 604-5555) that specializes in wood-fired pizzas, is a notable exception-though not for its pies. Seven bucks ($6.50 during happy hour, from 3 to 6) buys a heaping pile of the tenderest, most flavorful meatballs we’ve had in years, its generous blanket of zesty marinara all but spilling over the sides of a two-handled silver crock. You may want seconds.
