Radius - Washington, D.C.

Definitely one of the better places in the area. As a native New Yorker I am obnoxiously picky and this is the only place I have found myself going to consistently when I have a pizza craving. The appetizers are also pretty good and the food has always been consistent. Plus, Thursday's in Half-Price-Wine which always earns a plus in my book.

Radius is my go-to for take out pizza. Firstly and most importantly: the pizza is really great! Very thin crust, classic pizza pie. Not exactly NY pizza, but as a native New Yorker this is the closest to home I have found. Secondly, Radius offers an amazing take out deal! If you pick up your pizza, they only charge $10 for a cheese or $12 for a pepperoni pie. And to make the deal even sweeter, they have a loyalty punch card (buy 8 pizzas get a free cheese pizza). Usually only takes 15-20 minutes to be ready. I've only stuck with this classic take out deal, but everything else looks great when I pick up. Definitely a Mt. Pleasant gem!

We come often to this cozy neighborhood spot. Owned by a local family, they have great specials, delicious pizza, and fried pickles!!! The kid's menu plus crayons and paper make it perfect for family dinners out. The warm, Cheers-like vibe makes it great for ladies' nights (or dudes' night or an unstuffy date spot). Look for excellent take-out specials that get you quality pizza for the price of the mediocre stuff, and try the spicy gnocci!

Contrary to google informing you otherwise, this place is now open again. Their bruschetta was flavorful and topped with plenty of diced tomatoes and artichokes, their mt pleasant was surpringly spicy yet fantastic with ham and pepperoni, and their beer was great. We had the founder's IPA, very tasty, also, spiked cider. Overall, this place is a nice neighborhood joint, next time we are in Mt. Pleasant, we will be back!

The best pizza I've had In the area, next to Red Rocks. Wish they were open for lunch, alas, but they do do take out.
