DC Named A Best Pizza City, Where To Grab Slice: TripAdvisor

TripAdvisor says DC is one of the best pizza cities in the country, and has a recommendation on where to get a great slice.

WASHINGTON, DC — What would you suggest when asked where do you go in the Washington, D.C., metro for the best slice of pizza? That's likely a debate that will never be settled, but TripAdvisor this week named the best pizzerias in the country and ranked Washington one of the Top 10 US Pizza Cities with a recommendation of where to grab the best slice in town.

Boston's Pizzeria Regina in the North End topped Manhattan's famed Bleecker Street Pizza to be named the best pizzeria in the country, TripAdvisor said. The top 10 list was "based on millions of reviews and opinions from TripAdvisor diners," the popular travel website said. Recent reviews were given more weight than older ones.

Overall, Washington, D.C., was ranked as the No. 10 pizza city in a top 10 list led by New York. The top cities are also based on the quality of pizza restaurant reviews and the quantity of pizza restaurants and their great pizza reviews, with more weight given to reviews in the past year.

The best pizza place in town, according to TripAdvisor, is Pi Pizzeria at 910 F St NW, in Washington, D.C.

A recent customer review said in part, "Stopped in before we visited Ford's Theatre for a play and pleasantly surprised. We thought the bottle wine prices were great. South side classico deep dish wasn't quite as good as Chicago, but the best we've had in DC. Thin crust not NYC best, but good local alternative."
