3 Pizanos – pizza, subs, salads and gyros is coming to 1815 M St, NW (next to Ozio, west of Connecticut Ave) in March. Their facebook page says:
“Who loves authentic New York style pizza?! Not the wanna bee kind but the thin soft and crispy crust with just enough sauce and an awesome amount of oozing cheese ;o)~ drooooling…”
I’m cautiously optimistic.
Whatever. Everyone and their grandmother claims to have NY pizza in DC. Nobody does. And that’s fine. There are enough places with good neapolitan pizza to suit my taste. If I want good NY pizza, I go to the Bronx.
The only genuine NY-style pizza around the metro is at the Italian Store over in Arlington. Pete’s Apizza is really close. Why doesn’t one of them open here in Dupont? *sigh* (Disclaimer: I grew up on San Francisco pizza, which is NY with more garlic and oregano in the sauce and a good helping of *real* parmigiano or grana mixed in the cheese.)
I do not want any “bee” kind of pizza! Sting-y!
Considering the location, this will be a bug pile of meh aimed at the boring work lunch and late night kickball audience.
“big” pile… “bug” pile might have been a Freudian slip though.
that font they use certainly does not bode well for anything…
Soft AND crispy?
It would help if the proprietors knew how to spell “paisanos.” Yes, I know they are also trying to play on pizza but it smacks of being so fey.
Yeah, I was wondering if they were trying to pun on “paisanos.” Isn’t it a Spanish word, though, not an Italian one?
May be a word in Spanish as well but in Italian it means something roughly equivalent to “buddy” or “pal.”
is “fey” supposed to be a type of insult?
They sell gyros so I already know exactly how bad this pizza is going to be.
