In town for Thursday’s National Christmas Tree Lighting, actor Neil Patrick Harris was spotted having an early dinner Wednesday at Mike Isabella’s restaurant Graffiato.

A restaurant rep tells Yeas & Nays that Harris was wearing jeans, a sweater and a paperboy cap. He was with his partner David Burtka.

The two shared brussels sprouts, roasted cauliflower and a Goodfellas pizza and drank a hot tottie and barrel-aged negroni.

They told Graffiato’s Chef Marjorie Meek-Bradley that Bryan Voltaggio, a business partner and investor in the restaurant, had sent them there for a snack.

Afterward, Harris took to Twitter to spread the word. “Delicious pizza and the best brussels sprouts I’ve ever eaten,” he gushed, posting a picture of Burtka posing in front of the Italian eatery, which is located in Chinatown.

The couple made two additional stops on their culinary adventure, according to Eater D.C. They went to H Street’s Toki Underground for some ramen, sake, dumplings and tofu and finished the night at Izakaya Seki, enjoying a Japanese meal cooked by father and daughter.
