"Chevy Chase’s cute neighborhood stalwart sends out all sorts of reliable brick-oven pies. The Works is covered in sausage, pepperoni, bacon, caramelized onions, and an array of vegetables. Feeling hungrier? Little Beast also has a strong showing of thick, Detroit-style pies, all available for dine-in, takeout, and delivery. Insider tip: A new location is coming to Falls Church, Virginia" - Tierney Plumb
"You can’t go wrong ordering anything from the menu at this cutesy neighborhood bistro in Chevy Chase. But the Detroit-style pizza selection delivers perfectly crispy, cheesy square slices every time. Its second location in Reston closed at the end of 2023, but a new one is scheduled to land in Falls Church this summer." - Hannah Yasharoff
"The neighborhood pizza spot surprised Opal’s late-brunch table by whipping up a gift box of cupcakes from its affiliated confectionary; staff were “super psyched” when they learned Jay-Z was at Opal, and teenage employee-of-the-month Javi Thompson patiently waited in an alley with the cupcakes near the VIP exit. Staff recounted that Jay-Z was “extremely nice and appreciative” and even said, “I love you for this, man.”" - Tierney Plumb
"Chevy Chase’s cute neighborhood stalwart sends out all sorts of reliable brick-oven pies.

"With a mix of Detroit-style pizza and brick-oven pizza offerings, this charming restaurant is a must-visit for those seeking a delicious slice o’ pie. Consider the Motown — complete with a cheese blend, chile relish, pepperoni, caramelized onion, meatballs, roasted red pepper, banana peppers, and tomato sauce — or the Diavola, made with spicy tomato sauce, cheese, garlic confit, salami, pepperoni, and banana peppers. For refreshments, try the white sangria or one of the several fresh squeezed infused lemonades, like blueberry lavender or blood orange." - Mekita Rivas
