Since the consensus in this thread seems to be toward New York Style, my
personal favorites have got to be the following:

1)  VACE ITALIAN DELI - 2 venues, Conn. Ave in Cleveland Park, and
Wisconsin Ave. in Bethesda (between Bradley & Woodmont).  Sorry, but this
place is carryout only - no delivery, and no dine-in.  But their pizza is
truly superb, and astoundingly inexpensive (a 14" pizza w/ two toppings
under $8!)  If you're so inclined and don't mind paying a little bit more
all tolled, you can buy their ingredients separately and make your own
pizza at home - dough, sauce, cheeses, pepperoni...whatever.  My wife and
I have done this and it's been excellent!

2)  FACCIA LUNA - Wisconsin Ave. just south of Calvert in Glover Park.  A
very flavorful crust, and a fine selection of toppings including roasted
red peppers, which is one thing I'm always a sucker for...

As far as Chicago Style goes:

1)  PIZZERIA UNO's - an appropriate name, and surprisingly high quality
for a chain...
2)  CUGINI'S - Conn. Ave. near Nebraska.  Great delivery pizza for large
groups.  Very delicious sauce, somewhat sweet.
