Ventro Restaurant writes: Vento, a modern Italian trattoria, features house-made pasta, grilled fish and meats, and Chef Martin Lackovic's celebrated spin on traditional Italian fare in a stylish, casual setting. A bar menu, an extensive selection of wines by the glass, a cocktail menu featuring house-made ingredients, and happy hour specials makes Vento the place to go for drinks, small plates and dinner. The restaurant is located at 2120 P Street, NW, in the space formerly occupied by MiMi's and includes a large lounge area, 95 seats in the main dining room, and a patio, which will open in the spring. Vento’s earth toned interior was designed by Florencia de las Gradillas
