&pizza

Worse location visited so far. Poor general hygienical condition and sticky table surface. No working air conditioning, out of order bathroom, no workin soda machine, no cash accepted and 1 only non courteous but rude employee. In addition my order got lost in the system. Long wait time to get my order with no other customers ahead of me. This place needs to be shut down and put back in shape. I rate this minus 3 stars

Gotta confirm the other poor ratings, food, service, atmosphere, ALL BAD. It is the worst &pizza location I have been to in the city. They burn the life out of the pizza, it takes forever, and it taste terrible. And the "salads" have about 11 pieces of spinach and cost $6. Hard pass on this place Several other better options al within a block or two. And to go with it. The AC is out so it a constant 90 plus degrees inside. Apparently the owners/manager won't spend the money to fix it.

Great pizza, if you’ve been tourist-ing around DC all day and need a late night bite this is a great option. It’s not too expensive and quite good pizza. Location is easy, if a bit small with tight seating. We went in right before close, the music was very loud and service was a tad slow but the workers were good and kind. Would recommend the hot honey.

Pizza was really really good. Employees don’t say much but not rude either. Quick service. Little seating, maybe seats 15 people total. No wait for us, but we came later on a week night.

This is the first time I've ordered it from the app here in Washington DC, my garlic nuts were burnt and they did not have enough garlic sauce on them especially if they're burnt LOL. LOL. My pizza was pretty okay except there was not enough sauce on the pizza so therefore I had a huge brunt air bubble Fyi the garlic knots would have been great if had enough garlic sauce

Wonderful service! The hot honey suggestion went so well with my pizza!! Kim and Tina were both super nice and helpful with my order from start to finish! I made my own pizza and got the Ginger Berry Lemonade! Also, sign up for the rewards program (text REWARDS2 to 20003) and get $5 off your order! I saved money and got great service! Lol #winning

I’m not gonna hold you bro Luis was very welcoming. Provided great, actually outstanding customer service. The service was quick and efficient with a touch of local pizza parlor conversation. Now, aside from the personal reviews of Luiz the pizza was absolutely fantastic. Of course with a couple of recommendations from Luiz. Rating 10/10 but if course you have to ask for Luiz. Management didn’t miss with this one.

Awesome pizza and nice people Ny,and Marques fixed it up real nice and he did a great job on adding all my favorite toppings.Thank U & pizza U street.✌️👌😁👌👍

My sister lived in DC for 4 years and whenever we would visit her, we always made our way to &pizza. The pizza was always fresh and delicious with great ingredients. If you're ever in the DC area I recommend that you visit this location but if you are not in this area there are others throughout the DMV for your convenience. A great place with great environment to enjoy pizza

This &pizza location was a little better than the one I visited a few days ago (Dupont Circle). It was a pretty typical &pizza -- same decor, loud music -- and with typical &pizza pies, but they were well prepared with a good amount of toppings. We ordered ahead (no problems with the app this time) and got a custom pizza and a Maverick (both $13). The pizzas were ready before we arrived, so we got them from the warming drawer, but I wish they had been kept a little hotter. Service was prompt. &pizza is large enough to have leftovers if you aren't as hungry. Not everyone will like the thin crust &pizza style, but to me, it's a reliable fast casual option and I really like the customization options.

The Service is subpar. The ambiance was basic. Table was dirty. The pizza is meh! We tried a few different combinations, and did not enjoy any.

Not going to lie - the pizza here was great. It was my first time at &pizza but I've been to similar places in the past. I'll def be back. The topping choices and taste/quality of the meat options were impressive. The employees working were super, super nice, too. At a $13 price point for a pie, I'd gladly come back.

I'm disappointed to say that the pizza at &Pizza has declined in quality over time. It used to be great, but now it's just okay, and definitely not worth the $12+ price point. I've noticed that most locations are often empty, a stark contrast to when they first opened in the DMV area. What's even more concerning is that the company seems to be sh*tting the legacy of a local champion in the city, and the employees seem complacent with this. It's disheartening to see a company prioritize profits over respect and community. Never again...even if they gave it away!!!

Awesome concept. Fresh pizza made to order while I watch in less than 10 min. Came back the very next day bc the price was great as well! My kids ordered their own pizza & I didn't need a coupon! I love and pizza!!!

Super chill and awesome staff! Seriously all of them interact in ways that bring repeat business and deserve raises

I like &pizza but the U street location would get 0 stars if I could give that. For one, I ordered a CBR which is suppose to come with chicken. We come in to pick up our pizza and I say it's suppose to have chicken and chilis and their were neither. I brought this to their attention and they simply said they were out of chicken and there was nothing they could do. Not even offering a refund. How can you make and hand out a pizza that's suppose to have chicken as the main character and just eliminate the main protein of the pizza? For two, there was a random dog that was walking around the place the whole time we were there. Lastly, what is the point of a manger if they can remediate a situation with an unhappy customer. I like the food from this chain, but this experience was pure insanity.

Terrific choice if you want to lose 5 pounds fast. My daughter and I ate at this &Pizza and both of us had a pretty severe case of food poisoning about 8 hours later. I'll spare you all the details, but believe me it was the full hit parade. About 36 hours later I started feeling relatively normal again. Should've known it was a risk based on how untidy the food prep area is.

My go to. Also great for a quick dinner with visiting family as everyone can get their own personalized pie. Bummed the location on 7th St. closest to me closed, but the U St. location fills the gap nicely. Always busy, but the team works hard to get pies out quickly and they're always friendly. Shout out to DJ for going above and beyond to make my order right. So it's not the most exotic, but I love the traditional crust with classic sauce, fresh mozzarella, basil, roasted red peppers and kalamata olives. So good, and a few minutes in the toaster oven gets it bubbly and crispy after the walk home. I've had pretty good experiences with delivery as well. The one time my order was missing a few items, &Pizza remedied it quickly. Don't forget dessert--the chocolate chunk cookie with a sprinkling of sea salt on top is soooo yummy. Just don't look at the calories on it. Or split one (they're generously sized) into several portions. I don't have the willpower to do that, but perhaps you're better able to control a sweet tooth than I am.

&pizza is known as the perfect place to stop after a great night of partying!! It conveniently located near the lounges/night clubs such as Marvin's. I've been to this location a few times and they never disappoint! The pizza is always super delicious! Typically the line is usually long, but it goes by pretty quickly. They have a wide assortment of pizza toppings. I typically get a classic/traditional dough with spicy marinara, shredded mozzarella cheese, chicken, bacon, jalapeño, and sometimes olives if I'm feeling healthy. The pizza is always done to perfection! I've never had a terrible pizza from here, drunk or sober! Typically seating is limited whenever i come in so we usually end up eating on our walk back to the car!!! So worth it! Parking can be a challenge if you come here just for pizza! But if you're in the location for parties, this is definitely a good place to stop!!

Due to the popularity of the &pizza chains, I don't think the timing of the day/night should dictate if good customer service or a clean environment will be extended/visible. I get it, its U-Street late night, yet management needs to do better with having more employees on shift, who wants to be there & not give off negative vibes otherwise. I asked the employee to swap out her gloves & grab the Vegan cheese from the back due to the cross contamination of the toppings, she had the audacity to roll her eyes, so I rolled on out. That alone is why I elect to visit certain locations, to avoid terrible customer service...noted, won't return.

Cool staff amazing house soda and tasty pizza! The pep only is my favorite!!! !!!!!!!

I came with a very large group, about 8 adults and 18 children! We were in DC for a photoshoot. The staff was very friendly & accompdatkng. No high chairs and not much seating, but it is a small space. I'm not a vegan, but I throughly enjoyed the vegan cheese. I also had arugula, tomatoes & marinara sauce as toppings. Large portion sizes & flavorful, fresh ingredients. I'm usually not a fan of the "healthy" sodas but the root beer was great!

Wave and Luis gave us the best customer experience! Their recommendations and friendly conversation made me and my group feel welcome. The pizzas made were to my liking! I will definitely come back to this location!

The people here truly made my night: Brionna Was the one who helped my friends and I and she was truly helpful. She explained the options and was extremely patient with us. I will definitely be back as long as she works there. Please give that woman a raise!!!!

I ordered the Lil Roni, and that's what I got just a few pepperoni. When the pi,za arrived it wS ice cold

Fast casual food establishments is the trend right now. It's done with Mexican, Mediterranean, Indian, and just about everything else. &pizza is also in that fast casual category. It's not the best pizza, but it's enjoyable for what it is. You could either get one of their signature pies, or customize it to your liking. On my most recent visit, I ordered the Moonstruck, which had mushroom truffle, garlic ricotta, mozzarella, mushroom, grilled onion, goat cheese, and balsamic dressing. It was good, but a little too heavy on the balsamic dressing and goat cheese. I'll most likely customize next time to have it exactly the way I want. There isn't too much seating at this particular location, but it is a convenient spot right by U Street Metro. You could grab a seat by the window and people watch which can be entertaining. &pizza does have an app on the LevelUp Platform like some of the other fast casual restaurants, so I recommend downloading the app to take advantage of the rewards.

Don't ever come to this location with the late night drunkies! Let me tell you why! This past Friday night...well Saturday morning around 1:45 a.m. the place was packed to capacity. It was so crowded they had two security guards. Is this a normal thing here?! The line was very long and they were trying to move it along but the employees themselves had an attitude like they didn't even want to be there. They were messing up orders. It was just too much! The security guards were yelling at folks and had a hard time controlling the crowd. There's really no place to sit. Is that intentional due to the late night madness?! Ugh... either way, I won't recommend coming in here late at night. Just not worth the chaos.

If you ever find yourself waddling out of a bar nearby at 3 in the morning, this is the place to be. I found myself waddling not too long ago. I seen a few other people sitting on a street corner eating this pizza and asked them in a very sophistimicated manner where they scored such a feat at this time in the morning. Some drunken mumbles and a finger pointed me in the direction of &pizza. Let it be know that every other party animal with the beer munchies will be here. The line was quite long that night but it was well worth the wait. &pizza is out of the chipotle/build your own arena. They have several pre-established varieties to choose from but you can also build your own. I had something with meat and everything else that looked good on it at the moment. It was really good and made me happy. When the bar closes down &pizza feels you up. Highly recommend for those beer munchies.

Imani, Charles, and Brian made our night! They were so kind and understanding with my annoying pizza order and special requests. They're so fun and upbeat. It made my already fun night on U Street even more fun!

If my college stint in D.C. had been a Hollywood blockbuster, &pizza would've won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor/Actress (or whatever it chooses to identify as because who am I to force gender roles on a pizza?). A month or two into my first semester of college, a new friend and I stumbled out of U Street Music Hall and across the street into &pizza, where she introduced me to the "Chipotle of pizza" concept. Although we ended up having to eat our pizza on the ground in front of the bus stop in Logan Circle, I don't think I had ever eaten a better pizza. My go-to back then was the Kiss & Fire (which sadly isn't on the menu anymore) with its mouthwatering combination of strawberry balsamic (RIP), mushrooms, and a four-cheese blend. This particular location is very near and dear to my heart because it always managed to save the day (or night). When I first started running, I planned a three- to four-mile route that went through Adams Morgan and ended at this &pizza on U Street, correctly thinking that the pizza at the end of the run would motivate me to make it through all the hills. And it was always there for me at the end of a Friday or Saturday night on U Street -- serious props to the staff for putting up with lines of drunk customers every weekend. I'm dismayed that &pizza no longer offers strawberry balsamic, but you can't go wrong with ancient grains, mushroom truffle, mozzarella, mushrooms, spicy chickpeas, chicken, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, and red pepper flakes. Depending on your level of inebriation, you can even get away with turning a single pizza into two meals.

Terrible pizza. Tasted like cardboard. Beware, they charge a tip that you cannot edit. I wanted to tip my delivery person also but this business charged a $10 tip on top of a $60 order for 3 pizzas! Definitely will not use this location again. Signature chicken pizza had maybe 10 tiny pieces of chicken. AWFUL.

I've been to &pizza a bunch of times but first time at this location. I set the order for pickup because I heard how busy this place can get but was pretty empty seating wise but a good amount of people picking up. I accidentally placed the order at the wrong location so I had to cancel and place my order in person. Big shout out to &pizza's customer service because they handled the cancellation/refund via text easily. Both the guys making the pizza and handling the finish were friendly and worked quickly. The guy at the register for some reason ignored me when I tried asking for help and took other people in line who came in after me. That was pretty off-putting but the pizza, as usual, was still solid and they were generous with the hot honey. I'll definitely come back if I'm in DC seeing a show or grabbing drinks but hopefully register dude is in a better mood.

This was my first time at an &pizza; it's like a Subway for pizzas. The workers move down a line of toppings as you pick and choose what you want, you pay and wait for your pizza to come out. There's confusion as they pile up everyone pizzas as they're done baking and so I think we actually got someone else's pizza. The pizza was typical flatbread style popular around this area; I'm from NY so I'm not fond of it but as a light late night snack it gets the job done. The toppings were fresh and they had fountain drinks that would work great as a mixer lol.

Got delivery from here while on call at work. Ordered the Moonstruck after having tried it a few weeks back when my coworker got it. It was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!! It is the best pizza they make and even though I have only tried two of their pizzas (this one and the gnarlic), it's still the best one they make. Must try!! "mushroom truffle, garlic ricotta, mozzarella, mushroom, grilled onion, goat cheese, fig balsamic." Even if there are one or two ingredients you typically don't like separately, trust me, eating them all together will be worth it. I didn't even realize there were mushrooms on the pizza, that's how delicious it was.

The location was really good and the time I went was not busy at all. I do not get any meat on my pizza but they do give you a lot of options to what you can get. I usually get my pizza with both cheeses yes you can get pity if you want to do both. They do have vegan options . Also if you are not a fan of gluten you can get your crust gluten free. There is an extra charge for gluten. The pizza was not to hard and it was very delicious. If you are planning to bring a child to the area most of the chairs are way to high and it's a tight space for a stroller. The only recommendation is to keep an eye out for the restroom. It is a hit or miss on how sanitary the restroom is. It did have a little weird smell and that could definitely ruin your taste for your pizza if you decide on eating it there. Just let the staff know about the bathroom. That was my only complaint.

5 star experience always! This location is their second store and right next to the U Street Metro as you come up from the underground. The staff is friendly and quick to make you the best pizza in the District. I recommend the Farmer's Daughter with your eggs over easy. It has a perfect blend of flavor with a little spicy kick at the end of each bite. There's window seating and a long table to enjoy your food at. P.S. If you visit &pizza for the first time and love it, download their app ASAP. I didn't do that and am still kicking myself for not the last few years. I could have gotten free pizza!

This is NOT the & Pizza I once had a dying love affair with. I stopped in here a couple nights ago feenin' for pizza since it had been some time since I had & pizza and I was quite excited about it. What I walked into was an ill-kept store with employees on their cell phones as they made my pizza and as I paid for my pizza. I also ended up with old YELLOW arugula on my pizza with no flavor and about 3inches of missing pizza because it was not stretched to the length it should have been. The ingredients are obviously nothing like they used to be and are purchased in masses. & pizza used to make their own mozzarella in-house. That obviously is no longer a thing and a thing of the past which us what partly launched the brand originally. Long story short - As someone who & pizza even pizza bomb my wedding in 2015, this experience was an utter disgrace and let down. Sam - if you are still in charge of & pizza's operations, your U street store is in SERIOUS need of attention and so are the low quality ingredients you are now serving customers. Big thumbs DOWN.

While on the surface, goodwill towards feds seems kind. However, I'm furious to see this sign go up. Contractors, the thankless victims of this government shutdown -- many who will NEVER receive back pay, unlike feds -- are being charged? At work contractors sit next to feds, 40% of the federal workforce are contractors. Many will never see back pay, but &pizza wants to continue to perpetuate some backwards stereotype that we're out here living high on the hog as contractors. I call BS. Just to summarize: Get back pay = free pizza Don't get back pay = $5 pizza Yeah, I'm going to need someone from &pizza to explain this to me and my contractor peers. While I wait -- I can guarantee you'll never see a dollar from anyone in my family again. Be fair and kind, or do nothing at all, but stop with this divisive garbage.

This was my second time going to &pizza (different location) and I fell in love all over again. The staff was friendly and made a perfect pineapple jack pizza. My friend got the OG/classic pizza and loved it as well. For a busy location, this &pizza was very clean and well ran. The manager even stopped by every patron to make sure they were enjoying their food and everything was too their liking. I'm a sucker for good customer service so this was appreciated. The ginger berry lemonade was great as well. This &pizza location (and others) is definitely a must go whenever you're in D.C.

Definitely one of the best vegan pizzas I've had so far in DC! The service was also outstanding. Not sure of the employees names but they were all so kind and provided excellent customer service! Will definitely be going back for more and highly recommend!

Sandra and the &pizza team did amazing they took good care of me helped me too the end I definitely will be stopping back late night! Customer is immaculate! 10/10 definitely recommend

I will give this place a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It was good Pizza and maybe even great on certain days. We ordered a Pepperoni and sassuage Pizza. It was piping hot and fresh. Luckily for us there was no line and sitting. One thing to mention is that this place doesn't have the most sitting so you may have to take it to go. Wish I could of tried more pizza but I was in a hurry. Also, don't forget you can order online and pay for it online!!!! -Rick

Luis went out his way to help me with what type of pizza to get with no problem..cat & diana helped me decide on what sauces to put on my pizza and would drink with best for me an my son! I will definitely be back! I even was able to use my new &Pizza app and get all my point!!!!!

Conveniently located right outside the metro station, so it's the first thing you see as soon as you walk out (which isn't a bad thing). I arrived in DC a little late and was looking for something quick to eat so, of course, pizza always comes to mind. This was the top pizza place in the area I was staying at as well, and it seemed like the best choice. I am so glad I went! I got the Gnarlic pizza which tasted just as good as it looked! My mouth watered when I saw it. Its' cheesy, garlicky, pesto goodness was perfection. I can see why the place was so popular! The store front is definitely small (not many seats), and it looked like they hadn't thrown out the trash in a while (over flowing trash cans). The price has also changed from $8.86 to $9.55 per pizza. Their pizza is amazing, but the crust is dry and doesn't have much flavor. The presentation also wasn't the best. However, I still think this is an amazing place to stop by for a quick eat!

Awesome pizza place in DC. Came to Washington DC for a quick two day trip and stumbled upon this pizza chain with its weird name. Nonetheless, it attracted our attention, especially since it was open late night. We ordered online first and wanted to-go because we were hungry, tired, and just came down from a 5-6 hour drive from NYC. The website was so convenient and we were ready to pick-up within 20 mins. We decided to walk it at around 2am and saw that it was super crowded and poppin at such a late hour. Everyone else thought the same so that was pretty interesting for a non-NYC pizza shop. I ordered the pie with the Hawaiian based toppings. It was delicious and pretty big. I could not finish it thinking it was a small pizza. He got one with the egg and that one was pretty good as well. It definitely was satisfying and hit the spot. Would come back if ever we needed some pizza in the D.C. area again. Thaaaaanks!!!

I love their pizza, especially the fact that you get to make your own pizza. My fav sauce is with pesto. Downside: I was really paranoid if I will get sick from the pizza because the employee was not using gloves when rolling the pizza dough. Even if you guys are super busy, please make sure the stations are sanitary and workers are wear gloves.

Good service and costumer service With smiles on there face Kim Nik Yanni Highly recommend this spot when these lady's are working !!!!!!

Bottom Line: Delicious, customized pizza at the top of the U Street Metro station for $10. I heart &pizza. I fell in love with the food, concept and pricing about over a year ago and I continue to go into DC to eat &pizza. So far, I've made it to three different &pizza locations. What I like about this location is that it is at the top of the U Street Metro station. There is just something amazing about riding up the escalator and seeing that familiar ampersand at the top. Also, the "tribe members" here are super smilely and nice. Also, if you sit at the windows in front of the metro escalator, there is some good people watching. If you are not familiar with the &pizza concept, it is as follows: The &pizza tribe members will pile your generously sized personal pizza with as many ingredients as you'd like before putting it through the conveyor belt oven and charging you a thrifty $10. The process goes something like this: - Select your crust - Specify your sauce (or sauces, get creative!) - Choose your cheese - Pick your veggies - Add some proteins (including faux meat and a fresh cracked egg) - The pizza is quickly baked - Add some finishing touches (parmesan, fresh basil, garlic, oil, etc.) - Enjoy your masterpiece. I'm not totally sure, but this location might only have traditional crust whereas others have ancient grains and gluten free options. My go to used to involve artichoke hearts but &pizza, or at least this location no longer has them. The pizzas are intended to be personal pizzas but its a lot to eat for one person. Of course you can share with others in your party but that takes away from the customization concept a bit. Instead of sharing, I like to save my leftovers for later. One of the downsides of this location is that they don't have a diet cola option on their craft fountain soda machine. Also, the stools at the front window seats are way too high for the counter. Unless your thighs are only 4", you won't be able to sit here comfortably.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! &pizza is such a warm and hospitable place. The guy who made our pizza's is named Kevin. He is so nice and such an incredible, considerate, and caring gentleman! Love all the staff here. This is the only &pizza I like in the DC area!

&pizza definitely surprised me!! I have been to so many "build your own" pizza places and i havent liked any of them. However, this place was delicious!! The crust was delightful and the pizza was delicious. The reason I docked a star was because of some of the staff. The guy who made my pizza was wonderful and friendly but the cashier was not. Overall, it was a fun place with tasty pizza!

&Pizza is the pizza version of the quick and customizable food chains that have been getting popularly lately. It's next to the metro, so very accessible and noticable. Food: I had the American Honey, and it was lovely! It was tangy, but had a kick and spice that makes you really feel the heat without it being overbearing. The crust was absolutely delicious! I think it has a cinnamon rub on it. Definitely made me happy to reach in and go for the next bite~ Only downside is that the portion sizes are pretty small. Finished my pizza very quick and I'm still quite hungry. They sell bottled water for $2.27 lol... Their house soda blends are super interesting tho for $2.50. The Atmosphere: It's a cool place. The marble counters at the order counter really elevate the place. However the dingy chairs and tables bring it back down. They play trap music and some remixed mainstream songs that really reverberate the place. The music is quite loud that it's sometimes hard to communicate with the server on what you want on your pizza. The general customer area is pretty dirty, so I'd recommend that you take your pizza to go. Finish: Delivers in terms of taste at a moderate price. Would recommend if you're looking for a light bite, otherwise you'll feel empty afterwards.

A must when you visit DC especially if your'e out late on U street. Be advised if you go late night you will be standing outside and they will not let you sit inside because it's honestly not that big of a place and it's packed. There will be security late night to maintain order and watch occupancy capacity. Have-it-your-way pizza place with tons of toppings that you can make unique combination or keep it simple. It's right in front of the metro station so very easy to get as long as the metro is running Avg is about $12 -ish

after a long evening of partying I was elated to stumble across this pizza shop on u street! I'm not sure if he's the manager but the tall gentleman had the best customer service! keep him and hire more people like him! I don't expect customer service at this time of night but he delivered

Ah, good ole &pizza. You really can't drive through DC without spotting one of these! For $11, you get a huuuge variety of pizzas and topping options. It's pretty incredible! I've only gone here for my drunken pizza cravings but I do sense that it's probably good when enjoyed sober as well since business is booming no matter what time of day it is. HIGHLY recommend drizzling hot honey on your pizza, truly delectable and really adds a kick!!

As you already know from several of my &Pizza reviews, I love this place. It's great food for a great price open at great times. I have been to this location several times but this is my first time venturing to this location before midnight. The food was great, facilities were clean, I wasn't greeted but the staff were friendly. Overall, I plan on coming back. If you're in the area looking for something quick to eat this is the place. I always get "The Maverick" with both cheeses (Not really sure what types of cheese it is but the staff always seem to know). I'm pretty sure they're both mozzarella but one is shredded and one isn't. If you get both it allows for optimal coverage.

Simple & delish. I had a classmate named Alexis who worked for company and even hosted events. She enthusiastically raved about the food and the business itself, but the mere fact that she'd asked me to go there on her off day meant something. I saw why she loved it, and I put my other friends on all the time.

One of the best locations; &pizza at U street is literally right at the Metro and has quickly become a neighborhood staple. Also, there's no Bill Cosby painting on the side of this place, so that's a plus. As always, a delicious and nutritious pizza will be assembled before your eyes. This location has recent been retooled to more clearly separate vegetables from non-vegetables on their counter, which I appreciate. Some thoughts on ingredients: While always diverse and special diet friendly, their ingredient selection has added more of a clear seasonal rotation, which I like. I'm a tad disappointed that they cut falafel (admittedly not my favorite of the veggie proteins, but I got it now and then). Nonetheless, keeping things fresh is important. Whatever toppings there are, I still consider spicy chickpeas mandatory.
