Totally agree. Pizza is average. But if you are looking for great pizza Two Amy's is my favorite.

L'Enfant Cafe at 18th and Florida. So good.


Wonderful place to relax with the Sunday paper on a sunny Sunday morning.

Ripple
Commissary

Never been, but based on this thread, I'm going to have to check out Blue 44.

Room 11. Amazing on a summer night outside.

Granville Moore is one of my favorites.

It's great if you've got a big group with diverse tastes, or for brunch. Everything is good. But not great. And it's big and bustly, not the kind of place you'd want to make a regular hangout.

Unless you mean Egypt, I don't understand why you can't still go to them. I live all the way out in Crofton and go to many of these places.

I actually can't stand their salads. The famous sliders always seem to be dry. Pizza is average. I'm just not sure what I'm missing with this place.

Really? I love the simple salad and the pepperoni pizza.
