Lot's of fancy items to go on top, but the main thing is the crust which is wonderful. And its cooked in a wood oven. They also have a great mixed salad (chicory, romaine etc.) and good deserts and espresso. The house red wine isn't even bad, and it's only $10.00 a bottle. Unfortunately the place is *tiny* (seats about 40) and is always busy so far any time and any day of the week. But it's well worth the wait. Faccia Luna, Upper Wisconsin Ave. in Glover Park This is next best, but more of a standard kind of pizza. They also have lots of interesting items to put on top, spinach, sun-dried peppers etc. Their espresso is also excellent, and they have a good selection of imported beer, including Spaten on tap. Busy on Friday and Saturday nights. Alan
