Pizzeria Paradiso

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.

On Georgetown's M Street, Pizzeria Paradiso is a best bet for its Neapolitan-style pie plus dedication to beer in the form of the 16-tap basement birreria. [Eater 38 Member]

Gluten free pizza is decent! Not celiac friendly as it is baked in the same oven as regular pizza but those with an intolerance will be fine and enjoy a brick oven baked pie! Yum!

Savory and strong flavor Italian pizza in Georgetown. The salad with goat cheese was a great start. Di Mare is quite spicy and Bosco is perfect for veggie person.

Eat a pizza upstairs for dinner , then visit the beer bar downstairs for a truly outstanding selection of craft, import, and specialty beer that's worth a visit for any beer drinker!

Peter Blumberg

You really can't go wrong with any of the pizzas - try mixing it up with a classic (Atomica ) and an offbeat option (Bottarga ). Beer list is second to none and the sangrias are great too.

Vanessa Plain

Really friendly and helpful staff - and great food. Suitable for family groups and a good tip is to wait in the Games Room downstairs if there’s a wait.

Murad Gürmeriç

I designed my own pizza with the option of full-grain crust. The pizza was really good, only a bit burned at the bottom. The environment is nice, with a separate bar section.

MK McKenzie

It seems a bit crowded upstairs but the downstairs bar is awesome. Intimate setting, way too many beers to choose from! Not complaining. Atomica pizza is my favorite.

Sri Uma Aisvarya

Pizza is yum, well made not so thick crusts. The menu here needs to be updated. I liked the bruschetta and black widow (blueberry cider ) drink.

Brent Gatewood

Can’t believe I haven’t left a tip here. Great pizza , good beer selection . Must stop in Georgetown.

Carlos R.

Ask for a half and half , it's the top way to experience one of the best pizzas I've ever had!

Washington Post

One of the coolest beer bars around, with a tight, often esoteric list of 16 drafts and 80 bottles to go with the gourmet pizza . Read more

If you sit at the bar , ask for D.C (aka David) he's an incredible bartender - looks out for you and makes sure you are enjoying what you order. He'll fix it if you're not!

Tim F

Great beer list ...although I was more impressed with their bottles list than what they have on tap . 12" pizzas are about right for two people.

Kyle R.

My favorite pizza place in DC! The Quattro frommagi is second to none. Also, their beer list is excellent!

Serious Eats

Solid Neapolitan style pizzas , but worth considering for its beer list alone.

James Slack

The beer selection is pretty good, and the downstairs has a great vibe. Like dive-bar-meets-craft-beer vibe.

Randy Sisto

Had the Siciliano pizza and a Tell Tale Hearty Ale - fantastic!

Chafeeza Bain

We had the Sicilian pizza ! The 12" is enough for three , honestly ! If you love veggies this is the pizza for YOU !!!

Jennifer

The downstairs game room is the place to be... laid back and super fun.

Zein Samer

Delicious pizza . Check out their specials; they always are the best!

Chris Konecny

Family friendly , inventive pizzas . Good beer except they serve them in small glasses

gautam singh

I have been here once and I still think about coming back here years later. The pizza is very enjoyable.

Stephanie Garrison

Beer flights are the way to go - for $11, you get four 5 oz. beers from their draft list . It proved to be a great way to branch out!

Paul Travis Klein

The Bierreria downstairs is almost always less crowded , cooler, and has cheaper food and drinks during happy hour .

K S

Very friendly staff . The pizza was pretty good.

Sri Uma Aisvarya

12" pizza plus a starter and a drink each was very filling and came to about 65$ including a decent tip.

Oscar Montiel

They have vegan cheese for your pizza ! Beer selection is great too

Derek Flanzraich

Beer sampler is a great deal. Go downstairs !

Eduardo Fontes

All is good. 2 drawbacks: 1 - don't take Amex; 2 - wine served on "pint" glass...

Juniet Diaz-Reutlinger

Pizza is amazing. We had the Paradiso with prosciutto and roasted garlic and it was amazing! My husband loved the beer sampler .

Jared S

Great pizza . Definitely make your own with the Paradiso. Water was hard to come by. Try the beer sampler .

Deniz Sezen

They have a great beer list and very friendly staff .

Char

Pretty chill place, good pizza plus they have Mortal Kombat.

PizzaSnobo pizzasnobo.com

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.

Patrick Frank

Salad + large pie is great for two people

Monika Stopyra

The Best quattro formaggi I've ever ate!

Carol Sormilic

Staff is very friendly , but after waiting 60 mins for a table disappointed in the food mainly due to the lack of flavor. Salad was okay but the description and anticipation of flavor was a let down.

Brett payne

The crust is like the crustiest French bread . So delicious.

Dobrodana Popova

Super friendly service , awesome craft beer and delicious pizza !

Tom Maxwell

The Quattro formaggi pizza is a killer

Jay Luna

The Arugula salad and pizza is great

Faisal AlSehlie

Very good food & perfect location

John

Downstairs looks like someone's basement but it is surprisingly homey and quaint. And of course you can't argue with the food.

Rich Bennett

Good meatballs (appetizer/ Panini )

Jimmy S

Excellent wood fired pizza . All fresh ingredients .

Nicole Thompson

Get a table downstairs by the fireplace and enjoy the awesome beer selection !

Amanda Sarvis

There's a Japanese white ale . Light and summery. Try it its really good!

Now Owl

The pizza Genovese with potato , pesto and parmesan is delightful on its own. Adding prosciutto puts it over the top.

Rogier Rogier

Very good choice of beers
