PIZZERIA PARADISO

124 King St Alexandria, VA, 22314 United States

The original Pizzeria Paradiso, located on the second floor of a small townhouse in Dupont Circle, opened its doors in November 1991. The restaurant received immediate critical acclaim and has since been consistently ranked among the finest restaurants in Washington, DC. This location was upgraded in 2009, and is now located at 2003 P Street. A second location, in historic Georgetown, opened in December 2002. Our third restaurant, located at 124 King St in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, was opened in October, 2010.

2018: The Beer in Review

DC Brau Keller Pils. Soft mouthfeel, beautiful Noble hops – and there is just something about that blue color on the labels I really love. Quaffable, crushable, sessionable. Long live the craft lager.
