"D.C.-based and critically acclaimed, this pizzeria has opened its seventh shop at 741 Meeting Street, bringing crispy, "Neapolitan-ish" 12-inch pies with a rotating lineup of 11 white, red, and green varieties. Specialty pizzas lean creative—think Carolina barbecue sauce, strawberries, Peruvian sweet peppers, braised pork, and micro cilantro—and every pie can be made gluten-free. The menu also includes empanadas and salads, notably the Snoopy with mixed greens, cucumber, roasted corn, candied peanuts, cilantro, chives, and a charred scallion dressing. Charleston’s kitchen is led by chef Jeremy Waybright (formerly of Tempest), while co-founders Chris Brady and Andrew Dana trace the brand back to a 2014 farmers market stand and a first brick-and-mortar opened in 2016 with chef Daniela Moreira. Hours are Monday–Thursday 4 p.m.–10 p.m. and Friday–Sunday 11:30 a.m.–10 p.m." - Erin Perkins
