Noona’s and Paulie Gee’s.
I was so unimpressed with JBGB’s pizza. It was just OK.

Yep, agreed on JBGB. I was hoping for top tier pizza given their pricing, but it's just... medium.

Paulie Gee’s only does wood fired some days. They changed it up during Covid

My personal go to for small wood fired pizza with top shelf ingredients is Verde. You pay for it for sure but so worth it.

Specifically Wednesdays. Also, eat-in only Wednesdays, no carry-out. Worth it, though.

John Brown has 2 locations, 1 in the city and 1 in the county. That makes you sound like the idiot. Take a deep breath, you sound pretty wound up, we’re just discussing a butcher, christ.

Paulie Gee’s in Hampden. They only do wood fired on Wednesdays and you have to eat in (no takeout), but pizzas are two for one.

I don’t understand what you’re confused about?

Dang. So if we wanted to go tonight(Sunday) there wouldn’t be any pizza?

There is pizza, but it's not wood-fired; they have deck ovens for not-Wednesdays.

Try Joe Squared. Coal fired but definitely has the charred crust.

Just tried JBGB. their crust was dry and tasteless, like eating burnt toast. Will have to give these a try

Yes, slicing is optional.

Verde
cattimusrex t1_ixzy2xi wrote
Ok. So. I lived a block from Hersch's for a decade, and imho, their handmade pasta outshines their pizza 100%. Tasty pizza with good toppings, for sure, but reallllly soggy middles.
Extension_Aside9034 t1_iy00qua wrote
Birrotecca - interesting toppings, charred crust & other good things on the menu.
Lots of parking too!

Just try underground pizza and tell us what you think

Verde in Canton. Neapolitan style
cdbloosh t1_iy03fwh wrote
Yes, which is admittedly dumb, but you can just ask them to slice it and they will

I like Earth Wood and Fire on Falls Road in the county.
gbe28 t1_iy05a9c wrote
Agreed. Great option if not trying make an event out of it…quick, reasonably priced and friendly service. Bonus points for having a very serviceable separate bar area.

BricknFire Pizza Company in the Marriott downtown. Worked at Camden yards warehouse building and we ate there once twice a week.
bvzxh t1_iy09hug wrote
Gotcha! Yeah I went there a few years ago and admittedly was so annoyed we were given a butter knife with an uncut pizza. The flavors were really good tho, and good to know you can ask.

Wait, the one at Union Collective?
I just ate there like three weeks ago
JHBaltimore t1_iy0ed1s wrote
Imagine being too cheap to pay 5 to 10 more dollars than a papa john’s pizza. Pizza with locally farmed high quality ingredients and general popularity in the DC/Baltimore area.

Every time I've walked by recently they look closed - I've been worried they shut down.

I can’t be the only one that wouldn’t really be bothered if they mentioned it in the restaurant and I was like “okay sliced please”, but reading it online is just like….why be so annoying, if your food is good, you don’t need gimmicks like that.
gaytee t1_iy0flvh wrote
JS is underrated pie for sure.
Old_girl90 t1_iy0fmc9 wrote
No, they are definitely open! We’ve ordered many pies from them during covid (pick-up) and been back to the restaurant after they reopened for in-door dining 5pm till 10ish I believe

28 bucks for a deep dish pep is actually lower range of price points. Via313 in austin charges 30. Goodpie in vegas charges 34 for a pep. BluePan in denver charges 32.
FWIW I’ve had all of these and they’re all a good value.
ClusterFugazi t1_iy0irz3 wrote
JBGB’s across the street from the Ottobar. I had it recently and the crust was charred. Damn good pizza.
jwseagles t1_iy0lpbq wrote
Not sure if gimmick is the word for it. They don’t slice pizza in Italy so them doing Neapolitan pizza unsliced is pretty reasonable.
jwseagles t1_iy0oydj wrote
While they may not have the greatest pizza in the city, I do still love JBGB’s because on top of the solid pizza, they they have plenty of other options that are all great from what I’ve tried. Awesome drink program too.

I used to eat Al Pacinos all the time off of falls road, but hasn’t been the same since they changed ownership years back.
Floss_tycoon t1_iy0yk9t wrote
It's good but like everything else it's become hella expensive. Oddly, the best thing there is the risotto.
Old_girl90 t1_iy104cg wrote
Oh darn!! Their pizza was one of my favorite, too bad
oldbaychay55 t1_iy14jk6 wrote
Verde is amazing
Spaceghostster t1_iy1gm8k wrote
Also, not cutting the pizza helps it absorb as it cools so it doesn't get soggy
conval3sce t1_iy1q0i9 wrote
Not in the area but well worth the drive - Frank Pepe’s in Bethesda. It’s a Connecticut establishment that recently opened the MD location. Would HIGHLY recommend. There’s also one that recently opened in Alexandria!
conval3sce t1_iy1q962 wrote
A more helpful local answer would be Verde or Paulie Gee’s — sorry! I just love to plug Frank’s whenever possible haha

Love birrotecca. I forget what it's called but they do a pizza with pork belly and hot honey that is incredible.

I Love Al Pacino's ! Used to go to the Read St. location. Really miss that place.

I second it as well, but it's spelled Hersh's

The older gentleman that used to own Al Pacino’s, like 10+ years ago, give my brother and I gifts on Christmas like snow gloves and such! And I was unaware they had another location

Just ate there the other night. Was in the area and heard that was a good spot. Had their supreme and it was delicious! Love the square pie & square-cut pieces.

Paulie gees doesn't do wood fired anymore. They have the ovens but haven't used them since the pandemic for some reason.
starskyandskutch t1_iy35xue wrote
Always a fan of Johnny Rads but they have a tendency to be a tad floppy in the center, have to request well done.
A lot of “Jbgb’s” is overrated talk in here but I loved their pizza. Probably helped that I had no expectations going into it, however.
Like many have said, Hersh’s in fed is great. Definitely the better than Verde if you’re looking for an upscale dine in experience
