Located in the new Westin Arlington Gateway Hotel, Pinzimini is an Italian steakhouse with an upscale, yet comfortable, atmosphere. Its open, airy design is a relaxing environment for an after-work meet-up in the increasingly vibrant Ballston neighborhood.
In addition to the tempting libations, featured above, Pinzimini’s happy hour (called 'Unwind’ ) also features selections from their small-plate Antipasti. Thinly sliced Proscuitto, cheeses, olives, grilled vegetables and warm, crusty bread, served along side Pinzimini’s sea salt and herb-infused olive oil, provide an enjoyable nibbly nosh to accompany a much needed end-of-the-day break. Tummy still rumbling? The panini and pizzas are quite delicioso.
