Pizzeria Paradiso at Georgetown  - 3282 M St NW, Washington, DC 20007- is a DC institution known for its wood-fired Neapolitan-style pizzas with a focus on high-quality, locally sourced ingredients.

The cozy yet lively atmosphere makes it a great spot for a post-museum meal.

“We opened Pizzeria Paradiso so we could make the kind of pizza we longed for but couldn’t find in the DC area; the kind of pizza where the crust was the most important part,”the founder said on their official website.

“To create that pizza, we start with a wood-burning, domed, stone oven able to cook at a temperature of 650 degrees and above. Then we placed the oven at the heart of the restaurant so our guests would feel the warmth and comfort of its glow,” it said.

Founder and Chef/Owner Ruth Gresser's vision of Pizzeria Paradiso during its formation was of her standing near the kitchen laughing with her co-workers.

The notion of creating a nice, respectful and positive place to work is the bedrock of Pizzeria Paradiso, guiding the staff and transferring to our customers.
