Sonny’s, One of D.C.’s Top Pizzerias, Sets Up Shop at an Alexandria Marina | Eater DC

"A fun new riverside hangout, Catboat Pizza Bar made a surprise debut over Memorial Day weekend at Washington Sailing Marina (1 Marina Drive, Alexandria, Virginia), and I found stellar square slices there. Located about 15 minutes from D.C., a quick drive from Old Town, and right off the Mount Vernon Trail, the summer-ready spot invites outdoorsy types to pull up by kayak or bike and plop down for a pizza-and-beer picnic for as little as $10.50. The minimal menu starts with cheese, pepperoni, and mushroom slices and is expected to expand through the season; the drink list includes one lager, IPA, stout, wheat, pilsner, and sour, three natural wines (rosé, red, white), and a growing crop of spiked slushies. The airy setup with a scenic deck offers lawn games on the grass and views of planes coming in and out of Reagan National Airport; a portion of all sales goes toward the National Park Service, it opens Friday 3 p.m.–9 p.m. and weekends noon–9 p.m., and a grand opening and July Fourth fireworks watch party are planned." - Tierney Plumb
