Pizza, wings, and ping pong in a warehouse-chic setting
"The long-running, upper Northwest neighborhood pizza parlor has made a name for itself with a mushroom and bacon “smoky” and a lamb sausage-packed “Ca-lamb-ity J’s.” The lemony chickpea salad has a following in its own right, and the house-made ranch is the perfect dip for pizza crusts. There’s a convenient carryout tent with picnic tables, a bar, and fire pits in the parking lot out back. Know before you go: The dining room operates on a first-come, first-served basis." - Tierney Plumb
"The free ping pong tables, legit pizza, and classic desserts like sundaes and tiramisu are perfect draws for families at this neighborhood favorite in Upper Northwest. The back room is a popular children’s birthday party spot, and a fire pit on the back patio keeps diners warm all year. Sibling spots Buck’s Fishing & Camping and Muchas Gracias offer respective options for upscale grill fare and colorful Mexican food on the same block. Place pickup orders here." - Emily Venezky
"The long-running, upper Northwest neighborhood pizza parlor has made a name for itself with a pepperoni and jalapeno “hottie,” a mushroom and bacon “smoky,” and a clam-packed “Yalie.” The lemony chickpea salad has a following in its own right, and the house ranch is the perfect dip for pizza crusts. There’s a convenient carryout tent with picnic tables, a bar, and fire pits in the parking lot out back, and the dining room is back to operating on a first-come, first-served basis." - Eater Staff

The parking lot back is outfitted with picnic tables, a bar, and fire pits , and the dining room operates on a first-come, first-served basis." - Mekita Rivas
"Supporters of Comet Ping Pong, the D.C. pizza shop that conspiracy theorists have harassed since 2016 because they falsely claim it’s the center of a Clinton-centric child sex ring, found a way to drive out another batch of extremists Tuesday night: by blasting Lady Gaga and vamping up and down the block." - Gabe Hiatt
