Pizzeria Paradiso

$, Italian, Dupont Circle

User Rating: **** 3.8

Fodor's Review:

A trompe l'oeil ceiling adds space and light to a simple interior at the ever-popular Dupont Circle Pizzeria Paradiso. The restaurant sticks to crowd-pleasing basics: pizzas, panini, salads, and desserts. Although the standard pizza is satisfying, you can enliven it with fresh buffalo mozzarella or unusual toppings such as potatoes, capers, and mussels. Wines are well chosen and well priced. The intensely flavored gelato is a house specialty. At the larger location in Georgetown, a new rathskeller-style beer pub on the lower level opened in 2006.

this place is amazing

Posted by cd from Washington, DC on 11/2/05

It's amazing that a place that has been open this long, at least ten years, still tries so hard, as they have nice happy hour snacks, such as 1/2 pizzas, and have nice chefs who cook the food and talk to you at the bar at the same time. Love the food and the flavor of this place, as nothing is wrong.
