The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming -- honestly made me feel right at home from the moment I walked in. The food definitely lived up to the hype too. I had the half Kitfo and half Doro Wot pizza and it was absolutely amazing. Great flavor, fresh ingredients, and a really unique combo done perfectly. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Such good pizza this place is def slept on!!! The sauces that accompany the ethiopian pizzas are so flavorful and add a whole other dimension. Lots of options and great for vegans and meat eaters alike. Fries were perfectly seasoned NOTE: do not order delivery thru GrubHub they don't use that platform despite it showing up on the GrubHub platform! read more

Ice N Slice - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Delicious Ethiopian pizza!! As soon as you walk in, the owner greets you with hot tea or soup, and then you can place your order. My girlfriend chatted with him for a bit and it was genuinely really fun. He seems like such a personable, welcoming guy and totally adds to the experience. My only gripe is the price. We ordered just one half & half pizza and the total came out to around $50, which is definitely on the steep side. That said, it still felt like a worthwhile splurge. The experience is distinct, and if it's true that this is the only spot in the US serving Ethiopian pizza, then it really does feel like you're trying something rare rather than just grabbing dinner. The ambiance is also really nice. It's a cozy, smaller spot, but thoughtfully decorated. It genuinely felt like being in an Ethiopian uncle's house in the best way possible. read more

It took us over an hour to get our food but the doro wat pizza more than made up for the wait. One of the best pizzas we have ever had! So unique compared to any other pizza place you will find. read more

Delicioussss Ethiopian pizza. My boyfriend loves this spot, and now I do too! We've gotten it to go before, and have dined there. The portions are huge and the flavors are absolutely delicious. Not like any other pizza in the area. The teenagers who work here are also super nice. Highly recommend read more

Love ice n slice, everything on the menu is great and I like that they are open a bit later on the weekday and weekend for a late night bite. Finally getting around to writing a review. I recently had the vegetarian injera wrap and it was phenomenal! Super filling and I had leftovers. The veggies inside were fresh and tasty. Not pictured is the special green sauce that is available on the side. I believe the owners are the same from heat the spot (which also serves their special green sauce). Can't recommend this place enough! read more

Ice N Slice - Vegetarian Beynet Injera Wrap - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Ethiopian fusion pizza is the sort of thing you'd really only find in DC. This place is prominent and distinctive. It appeared that only outdoor seating was available, which won't work for all conditions so you may need to be thinking takeout. They only offer pizzas in one size, and I had doubts whether the $30+ with tax and tip would be worthwhile. However, lugging this monstrosity of a pizza back to my car certainly convinced me that it was heavy enough. Notably, I ordered a pizza based on ful, which was listed without cheese and yet, as one can see by the accompanying picture, came with cheese on it. Since I am not a vegan and hate to waste food, I just took it, but for those actively trying to avoid dairy, you unfortunately would be well advised to make extra sure that your order is correct. However, I think the end result to be well worthwhile. I thought it might just be a plain pizza with fava beans replacing tomato sauce, but it in fact came with a variety of vegetables including mushrooms, peppers, and spinach. The fava beans make it even more filling than a normal pizza. It was flavorful by itself, but some extra sauces were included, one a sweet, spicy and sticky one, and the other mint-based. I used them for the crust. I deducted a star for service because of the lack of clarity in the menu and because of not quite getting what I thought I ordered, but if you are the sort of person who hears "Ethiopian fusion pizza" and thinks "I need to try this" (as opposed to "this is absurd"), then I commend you to this unique establishment. read more

Ice N Slice - Lemenor Pizza (with cheese) - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Amazing place. I ordered pizza and it was so good I had to take it with me to the airport! the boss was so welcoming and kind, he helped me put the leftovers in a bag instead of box so that it would fit in my suitcase. Even before this he was super kind to the customers and me, overall great attitude, asking us how our day was etc. Highly recommend. read more

Seriously the best pizza I've ever had! If you do one thing, GET THE ADDIS ABABA PIZZA! Dough is perfectly fluffy, and the flavor combination is truly revolutionary. Spicy honey sauce, green sauce, and hot tea provided on the side are incredible. The service here is also unmatched. They treat you like family. read more

Can't say enough good things about the pizza here! The doro wot pizza especially is amazing. I went with two friends and 1 pizza was exactly the right amount for 3 people. Everyone who worked here was so friendly and checked in on us, made sure liked everything, etc.! My friend tried the ice cream, and the vanilla bean one was solid. The pistachio had a bit of an odd texture and more of an almond flavor. It's definitely pricey ($40 for a large pizza), but it was super unique and delicious - I'll come back to try more flavors for sure. They have a huge menu and I'm looking forward to trying more of it. I just wish they sold some by the slice so I could sample a bunch of flavors at once, but that probably just means I need to come in a larger group. I definitely recommend coming here! read more

Amazing service and delicious food! Every visit feels special and worth it. Always!!!

Listennnn! This place is filled with deliciousness!! I wish I had taken a picture of our pizza, but we forgot and started eating right away. We got half and half, I ate the Addis Ababa and my friend had the Merkato. The Addis Ababa is a flavor combo that is simply stupendous! The cabbage and lentils were the highlight for me. I also really enjoyed the crust! And you must, when I say must, I mean must try the "secret sauce" directly on the pizza. It takes the flavors to the next level. I also highly recommend the house made tea! More deliciousness!! Not only is the food fantastic, the service is top tier!! It's giving family restaurant and you're always welcome here. I wish I lived in the neighborhood, so I could go regularly. Good food takes time, so don't come here trying to rush the process. Enjoy the experience and you won't be disappointed! read more

Okay yes. On my way to what I thought was my last dodgeball game (long story), I knew that once it ended that Ice N Slice would be closed, so I decided to head into town a little early and finally try them out. It was not a long walk from the metro -- maybe 5 minutes. You can see a sign right on the corner of Georgia Ave, but you have to walk around to the main entrance. So you order outside, and there are a bunch of tables and menus to look at. There they were... big pictures of the Ethiopian pizzas I so wanted to try. Given the name, I was hoping I would be able to grab pizza by the slice, but I was limited to whole ones... but YOLO! After hearing the descriptions of each one from the lovely staff, I decided to get half Addis Ababa (veggie) and half spicy beef. It was ready in about 15 minutes and I couldn't help but take a slice as soon as I got the box. So I opened it, it was PIPING hot. And I was surprised to see small ramekins inside the box... there was honey and a green sauce (not sure what it was, I didn't ask... but it was yummy). The spicy beef was really REALLY spicy. I was quite pleased, but whew it is definitely not for the faint of heart! Once I got to my other destination I tried the veggie, which was a nice cooler option... but the flavor of the lentils, chickpeas, spinach and more really set it off! I kind of expected the crust to have some wild injera spin on it, but it was just a standard crust -- it was still delicious, don't get me wrong! This was definitely a novelty pizza that I would gladly have again. I'd love to try their ice cream flavors and other options on the menu as well! Ethiopian wraps sound like a winner too. I'll be back! read more

I absolutely adore unique finds, and this is definitely a gem in its own right. Ethiopian pizza? Say no more!! I couldn't choose between Doro Wat and Merkato, so I got half and half. Neither one disappointed! It's the best pizza I've had in awhile. Even the crust is unique, and you're gonna want some more of that green sauce, so gon'head and get yourself a lil' extra. That's all I'm gonna say about it because everyone needs to try how incredible it is for themselves. It's a walk-up and order type of establishment with outdoor seating. They were so unbelievably kind and accommodating, too! It was raining the day I went (September 9, 2023), so they let me wait inside and sip some hot tea. Good food, good people - who could ask for more? Their menu is quite overwhelming in the best way possible, so I can't wait to return and try their other menu items. read more

I flew all the way from Minneapolis to try this place, only to find it was closed on a Wednesday. Online, the hours stated it was open Tuesday through Sunday. After all that travel, it was incredibly frustrating to discover the restaurant was closed without any prior notice. To make matters worse, I met other customers who had flown in from Seattle, equally disappointed. The restaurant really needs to update its hours online to prevent others from wasting their time and money traveling from out of state only to find a closed door. read more

I got takeout from Ice N Slice and was blown away by how amazing the pizza tasted. We ordered the Addis Ababa Vegetarian Pizza and it was so delicious! I have always loved Ethiopian food and DC had some of the best Ethiopian food and this was no exception. I loved the concept of Ethiopian pizza, the curries on the pizza tasted so good and the dipping sauces provided on the side were so delicious as well. For two people, one pizza is more than enough the portion size is so big that we even had plenty of leftovers. I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and will definitely order this again. read more

Very sweet folks at this place and lots to choices! Service was excellent and same with the food. No complaints here.

Very cool place! Was very intrigued by the thought of Ethiopian pizza and of course love the folks behind Heat Da Spot and want to support them in everything they do. We ordered 2 pizzas: the Merkato and the Doro Wat. I liked the Merkato best of the two (the doro wat had chicken on the bone which is a little complicated to eat on top of pizza). The flavor of both was top notch and I'd definitely come back to try more of their specialty pizzas! read more

No better place to get Ethiopian pizza than here!!! The decor is a bit chaotic and overwhelming with pictures and words, but it's honestly kinda camp LOL Graphic designers would cry looking at this place. Currently it's take-out only, but plenty of outdoor seating at the patio! The cashier was extremely nice and helpful with her suggestions. We got half Doro Wat (chicken stew + boiled eggs) and half Addis Ababa (veggie). Both had generous portion of toppings and were soooo flavorful. The Doro Wat came with honey on the side while the Addis Ababa came with a spicy green herb sauce on the side! I feel like one pizza can easily fill up 3-4 people since it's SO BIG. So worth the price!! read more

From the owners of beloved Heat Da Spot further down Georgia Avenue N.W. comes Ice N Slice, a takeout only food and ice cream shop. My five-year-old daughter and I went right then they opened at 11:30 a.m. on an August Friday. With a short wait, we ordered an ice cream for each of us. Here's our experience: 1) Ice cream: They have around a dozen flavors from a Philadelphia-based ice cream company that started in 1861. Behind the glass of ice cream is a row of toppings from sprinkles to cereal. My five-year-old daughter ordered the strawberry ice cream with sprinkles in a sugar cone and I had a scoop of chocolate chip cookie dough in a cup. The ice cream was decent. The best in the city? Absolutely not, but not bad. 2) Service: It's always so great! They are kind, efficient, and treat you like family. 3) Space: There's an outdoor patio with several tables. They also sell breakfast sandwiches, pizza, and a few other food items. There's street parking nearby. read more

All I have to say is try their Addis Abba pizza! You will not be disappointed the pizza is large enough for at least 2-3 people and fairly priced for the beautiful rich taste and ingredients. It came with lentils, cabbage, collard greens, and feta cheese on top. Definitely not typical of a standard pizza of course but they complemented each other ver well. How they thought to merge pizza and Ethiopian food is genius. Totally worth the experience. I ordered through Uber eats and it came hot and ready! I also loved the honey and green sauce that accompanied the pizza. The green sauce had a nice kick to it and added to the burst of flavors. I appreciate that Ice n Slice caters to vegans, vegetarians, and meat lovers. I absolutely can't wait to try their other options like the Doro wat and merkato pizza. I don't think I can order pizza from any other place now! read more

Ice N Slice is amazing! They have large Ethiopian pizzas that we loved. We had a Merkato Pizza, two hand crafted sodas, and two milkshakes. The service is extremely friendly and they are outdoors and take out only but have table service outside when weather permitting. The outdoor table service was great on a Thursday evening in February with perfect weather. We look forward to returning! read more

The pizza and milkshakes (among other things) are delicious, and the service is always great. They serve pizzas with Ethiopian style toppings, making them very unique. You can get pizza at a lot of places but where else can you get pizza with beef tibs? The people who work there are also really nice. My favorite restaurant in the area, and there are a lot of good ones. read more

So delightful! This place is owned by the same folks who own Heat Da Spot and it is equally fantastic. All of the food we had was SO good--highly recommend both the spiced fries and the sambusas. The veggie pizza is an awesome fusion dish, with everything from an Ethiopian veggie platter piled onto a pizza with sauce. You also must try their special sauce as well, it's mildly spicy and delicious. The atmosphere is casual, you order outside at their takeout window and can take your food to go or sit on their patio outdoor seating. Above all, the service is incredible. Unbelievably friendly, attentive, and accommodating. We will be back! read more

Been trying to get here forever, since I love their first place that's lower on Georgia ave- Heat Da Spot. We ordered pick up on a Wednesday night..the order was ready quickly. I can't speak to the pick up process, since my dining partner picked up the pizza for us but I assume the staff was lovely, they are stupendous at Heat Da Spot! I was surprised that they have vegan cheese!! I'm sure a pizza with the real stuff is a lot better but I want to live. We got the Letigab Kifto pizza. I was a bit saddened that it was mostly meat and a scant amount of any of the veggies listed on the menu or shown in other's orders of the same dish. It was flavorful and I enjoyed the sides of honey and spicy green sauce. I feel bad giving low marks but it was lacking. Maybe another pizza would be more robust. I'll try again with another pizza sometime. read more

This new Ethiopian fusion spot from the owners of Heat Da Spot has something for everyone! We tried two of their Ethiopian pizzas - the Letigab and Addis Ababa. The pizzas have a traditional Italian-style pizza crust, sauce, and cheese, but with delicious Ethiopian toppings. I especially loved the lentils and chickpeas on the Addis Ababa. The combination of Ethiopian and Italian flavors and textures is hard to describe, but we adored it. They also offer ice cream, which they let us sample. The coffee flavor was really great! They also have breakfast sandwiches, smoothies, and coffee. Right now it's an entirely outdoor experience - you order at a window on Shepherd and either eat and the outdoor tables or take it to go. Definitely go check out this brand new business! read more

We ordered the pizza half doro wat and half vegetarian. They brought us two sauces too - one is a thick sweet but spicy sauce and the other is an herbal spicy sauce.

Unfortunately it was raining when we came so we sat inside. Luckily it wasn't crowded. read more
