We opened Pizzeria Paradiso so we could make the kind of pizza where the crust was the most important part. We started with a wood-burning oven. We also wanted our guests to feel like they were being treated to the comfort of home, so we placed the oven at the heart of the restaurant.

A great choice for vegetarians . We had the 12" Siciliana and the 12" Bosco . Portion was great for 4. Loved the dimmed lighting and candles on the tables, made having pizza quite an experience!
Mozzarella E Prosciutto is the simple, yet perfect pub grub you're looking for here. Buffalo mozzarella , sundried tomato , basil , prosciutto di Parma , & toasted homemade bread .
The atomica is good but really hot! Picky people can choose toppings. The IPA beers were too bitter for me... Atmosphere is nice but noisy ... Olives are free and yummy! Servers are great!
wow this a great place, service is really nice & quick, pizza is georgous, you dont miss if you are in DC
Pizza . Beer . Who has room for more calories? You do! The tiramisu is surprisingly good. And it comes in a cute little pot de crème pot, so it is calorie-controlled. You won’t regret it!
You can't really go wrong with any decision here. With the said, the Pizza Napoletana is delicious for the anchovy and caper lovers out there.
My first *real* beer (i.e. not natty light) was at their Georgetown location yrs ago. It was an Ommegang Rare Vos and it changed my world. Still have a huge soft spot for their Saison-heavy beer list .
We did a half-and-half of the Bosco and Siciliana , and it was delicious! Great, chewy crust and fresh toppings . Also fabulous beer list !
Good selection of tasty pizzas and an extensive beer list make this a great place to grab a meal.
Ingredients are fresh and VERY high quality. Some of the best pizza in DC. Make sure to check out their long list of craft beers .
Pizza is great and the gluten free crust is the best I have ever had. The beer selection is phenomenal but the gluten free drinks are just ok. They charge you for seltzer water.... Kind of lame.
If you like pizza , this is the place to be in the Dupont Circle neighborhood . I personally love the spicy "Diavola". Also, enjoy their humongous beer selection .
Delicious pizza with fantastic toppings and chewy dough and an incredible selection of craft beer . Perfect cozy date spot .
The pizza bar in back is a good option, often you don't have to wait if alone or in a small group. Plus you get to watch them make everything.
Cant believe that no one mentions their beer collection. It rocks. Amazing staff , great atmosphere, awesome beer collection and dont forget to try pizza with pesto , onions , mushrooms and goat cheese .
The pizzas are fantastic of course (di mare was really tasty) but they beer menu is quite excepcional.
Ranked among the 100 Best Restaurants in the DC area by The Washingtonian magazine. Pies are baked in a wood-burning, domed, stone oven. Domestic and imported microbrews and Italian wines available
Great selection of beer & wine , with very delectable food. Service was very attentive.
Great artisan wood fired pizza and antipasti...and a 14 page beer/cider/mead list
Pizzas are good, great taste ftom good toppings. Its the crust that missing something. Not too crispy nor too doughy, but also without much taste
The pizza is GREAT! Fresh ingredients and great choices for toppings. But even better is the BEER selection . FANTASTIC.
Very good pizza , 9 inch size is more than enough for one. Ingredients are high quality
Happy hour is absolutely worth it! Be there before 6 pm and enjoy pizza and drafts by half price
The pizzeria’s 2 D.C. locations will be tapping into a few seasonal kegs , including Oktoberfest & pumpkin ales by Bells, Dogfish Head , Weyerbacher & Spaten. Starts Friday & runs for a week. Read more
Wonderful pizza and great selection of beers
Pies are some of the best in town ! Great Veggie + Meat options, additions are genius. Try the Curieu triple brewed beer if you're looking for a kick. :)
A wonderful pizza place with a great atmosphere. We were given a bleeper & told there was a 40 minute wait but it was actually 10. Well worth the wait.
Great service. Occasionally long waiting list. Great pizzas . Strongly recommended.
Delicious pizzas . Try the Napolitana. Well designed beer draft list
Was expecting to be blown away by the pizza but it was fairly bland, but plenty of vegetarian options and good Belgian beer selection . Don't get the larger sized pizza .
one of the best pizzas in the area! order the one with the egg on it. so goood.
1.5 ozs?? In your dreams (more like .75 oz) Really shitty pours. Stick to beer . Pizza is good. But the yuppie "can I get the white pizza but with red sauce and sub everything" vibe is sad. Grow up.
Great beer list ! Get a few flights and try something new.
The bottarga pizza was fantastic! Excellent selection of craft beers on tap .
Huge beer menu with several craft beers ! Lots of specialty pizzas too
Crostini with prosciutto do Parma and goat cheese .
Fantastic pizza ???? and friendly staff ????
The 'Bosco ' Pizza is one of the best I've ever had
Great beer selection and service. Good for gluten free pizza and beer .
"There is no try" Clearly Yoda never met a Paradiso bartender . You can try any beer before you commit. Yay beer !
You've come to right place for pizza , get ready to enjoy one of the best pizzas in the nation's capital! -- Green Guide Editor
Delicious pizza . Get the Siciliana and add some prosciutto
Prices are a bit on the higher side than your typical pizza place but the food is worth it.
They have gluten free pizza here! Crust is on the thicker side but quite chewy
Quattro formaggio pizza - hands down best thing you'll ever eat.
Interesting beer selection and really good pizzas
Great place for groups. Staff is extremely accommodating.
They use sweet chopped tomatoes instead of sauce, but the ingredients are top notch and they have a great beer list . For more reviews check out www.pizzasnobo.com.
Good authentic pizza and awesome beer list .
If you can't decide, ask for a split pizza . The espresso was excellent.
