"This local haven for wood-fired pizzas and craft beer, founded by chef Ruth Gresser in 1991, offers a long list of 9- or 12-inch pies for indoor/outdoor dining and takeout or delivery. In addition to Georgetown and Dupont Circle, Pizzeria Paradiso boasts outposts sit in Spring Valley and Hyattsville, Maryland. Insider tip: The Georgetown locale sports a game room downstairs" - Tierney Plumb
"The Kennedy Center has plenty of family-friendly shows, so you’ll need a restaurant that feels inclusive, too. Pizza is always a good idea. Head over to the Georgetown location and pick from a dozen different curated options, build your own personal pie or opt for the larger option. Sit outside, if you’re the type to brave a patio along M St., or just dine in the bright yellow dining room. Toss in an order of hard-fried wings, and you’ve got a solid meal. And if your show is on a Thursday-Saturday after 5pm, there’s also a game room with arcade-style video games, shuffleboard, and darts (admittedly a little less kid-friendly) to pass the time." - tristiana hinton
"Pizzeria Paradiso’s D.C. locations will pour Pride Palmers made with Tito’s vodka. For every Pride Palmer sold in June, Tito’s Handmade Vodka will donate $1 to Capital Pride Alliance. Plus, the Dupont location will serve a rainbow of six cocktails (one of each color) leading up to Capital Pride, priced from $12-$15 (June 3 to 9). All locations across the DMV will also serve “Alec’s Puerto Rican Pride” pizza designed by an LGBTQ+ employee." - Evan Caplan
"Plan ahead to nip a raging hangover in the bud with Pizzeria Paradiso’s 4 Pork Hangover Pizza Special. Only available on New Year’s Day, the special comes loaded with mozzarella, asiago, pork sausage, salami, pepperoni, and prosciutto atop a base of tomato sauce. The pie is available at all restaurant locations ($16, 9-inch, $23, 12-inch)." - Kalina Newman
"From now until June 12, the pizzeria’s Dupont location will feature pours and canned beers from local, queer-owned breweries and distilleries, with all sales benefitting SMYAL and The Blade Foundation. Opt for a Pride weekend beer flight ($14) or parade-day special: a draft and shot of Civic Pride Vodka for $10." - Evan Caplan
