Summary

Don Rockwell
Celebrity chef Bryan Voltaggio's big restaurant inside the Chevy Chase Pavilion is a bit hard to find (it's on the second floor of the mall) and is at times overly-ambitious (there are 9 kitchen stations). But its classic American menu always has something for everyone, from a full raw bar, to a selection of wood-fired pizzas, to entrees featuring all the major proteins (recently chicken, steak, salmon, pork, lamb, scallops, and sea bream), making it a good place for a crowd. The drinks program is also top-notch, with a good selection of beers, wine and cocktails.

This local mini-chain has four locations featuring New Haven-style pizza by the slice or as whole pies. We think that the whole, freshly-made pies are better. Try the New Haven or the Arugula (to which they'll gladly add prosciutto on request).

"Consistently well-wrought pies, salads, and pastas make this local chain a favorite …, but New Haven specialties in particular … white pizza with clams … tomato pie drizzled with sweet olive oil … show off the excellent ingredients and detail-focused kitchen." See Full Review…»
