You like a regional style…that’s not the best. It’s one type.

I agree it’s good but dare I say perhaps too cheesey

Andy’s pizza in the nice Tyson’s mall (can’t remember if it’s I or II) is legit very good. I grew up in the northeast and think most pizza in this area is awful.

The consensus favorite in my family is Colony Grill in Arlington. We all have other favorites too, but we don't agree on those! I'm a big fan of Pupatella (two locations in Arlington). The Italian Store is also very good, but I tend to get a sandwich when I'm there, so I don't often get their pizza.

I have not tried it yet, but several people have I know have recommended Badd Pizza in McLean.


Don’t bother with bad. It’s not NY style at all.

I’m from the NY suburbs too and feel your pain. That said, I really like Mama Lucia in northwest DC. Thin tasty crust that you can fold and hold in one hand bit the narrow end of the slice doesn’t droop. Not overly cheesed or too greasy. Give it a try and let us know your verdict.

As someone who likes good, plain cheese pizza, I was surprised how good the pizza was at Santini’s, in VA. They have multiple locations, so may be in MD as well.

In MoCo I think DaMarco is hood for neapolitan and Corner Slice is good for NY style, and Vace is good for a compromise in between.

I am also from NYC. The best NY style pizza I have found in this area is from Andy's or Slice Joint, two places that haven't yet been mentioned. I also like Wiseguys, but it's not quite as NY style (a little thicker) but still good.


Another +1 for Andys (in Tysons Galleria) and Tonys NY pizza - former NYer
