Chicken Tibs Awaze slice
Lauren C.

Located on a busy street next to bars and other restaurants, I stopped by here to grab a late night snack. So glad they are open until midnight during the week. Service was friendly and attentive. You have the option to order a whole pizza or just a slice to go. There wasn't a ton of searing inside, but I noticed there is a speakeasy. I have to come back to try the speakeasy sometime. I got the chicken aware tibs slice. It was really good. It had a nice level of spice to it without being overpowering.

18" Vegan Pizza, Pepperoni Slice, Cheese Slice
Chelsea C.

I love a pizza with a thin crispy crust. You can tell the pizza dough is expertly made due to the bubbles from the hydration of the dough. Its a super satisfying crunch and its a large slice. However, we only ordered the vegan pizza and admittedly its not the most representative of what they offer (this usually comes with vegan pizza). It can still use some work, its incredibly simple so we got a good taste of the sauce and vegan cheese (which was melted!) and the few sprigs of basil. At times, the crust is a bit too hard, so its difficult to appreciate the toppings especially when its just three ingredients.

Walk down to Speakeasy
Shyra N.

I love a good speakeasy and if this is your first one, then it may be worth the trip but if you been to speakeasies before you may be a bit disappointed with this. First, the entry to this one is great. I love how it's located in an unassuming pizza shop and the walk to the bar just builds anticipation for the experience behind the door but afterwards the experience just falls short. The space is nice and the service was great but the quality of the food is not worth another trip. Also, our bartender was nice and accommodating but you can tell he was just starting out. If you are getting a craft drink you should be able to tell your bartender your spirit and flavor. If it was off the menu, no luck. I probably won't return but if it's your first speakeasy it may be work the experience.

Awaze tibs pizza
Michelle D.

Minya pizza is an Eritrean-owned pizza shop, with American pizza, a few types of Eritrean pizza, and other food as well. I came on a Monday at 12 pm and there weren't too many people. The worker behind the counter was friendly, and there is plenty of seating. It is only a 4 minute walk from the U Street metro. I got a slice of their awaze tibs pizza, which had spiced ground beef, jalapeños, onion, tomato, and cheese. It was delicious! Definitely unique and worth trying. The price wasn't bad too, it was $7 and had a good amount of meat. One slice was enough for me. I will definitely come back.

Pizza is delicious! I tried their vegan cheese pizza and wouldn't have been able to tell if I hadn't known otherwise

Absolutely poor customer service.. selection of pizza slices were slim to none.. I will NOT becoming back Slices available look like that have been sitting there for days

I was out on 9th st and decided to grab some pizza. The employees including the owner, Yosief, were very kind! I ordered slices of the cheese and derho pizza. They were both delicious. I would love to come back to try the Ferrovia pizza. This place also has a great surprise! I can't wait to come back.

Their pizza is actually quite good. It is the perfect balance between dough-iness and thinness. They are friendly too.

Cool atmosphere, crappy food, lackluster service, and ridiculously overpriced watered down drinks. $18 for a small vodka soda.

It's a nice small location. It's fairly small inside but there's also outdoor seating outside. We…read morecame at night, all the lights were lit up so it looks so pretty. I got buffalo chicken wings - pretty good actually Got 4 slices of pizza: we like them all!! Korean chicken - too sweet for me but hubby like it Chicken Paneer Chicken Parmesan Chicken Bacon Ranch - my favorite! I was satisfied Best part is definitely the thin crispy crust. Service: can't say much because it's a pizza place and we only order and take our food. Staff read welcoming and easy to talk to ( male cashier); female staff who took my order and hear up my food my me seems a little mean but it's probably because of the loud noises so it was hard to hear each other....some miscommunication/understanding both ways. Go try some pizza!!

Onto the letter W on my alphabet series, representing prior to 2018, W is for Wiseguy Pizza. The…read morefirst time I ever went to Wiseguy Pizza was in August 2014. That month I had started Uber driving, was in this area of DC, had heard good things about Wiseguy, and decided to eat here. Although I don't like paying to park just to simply eat a meal, I sometimes will make an exception for convenience and/or if it's a place I really want to go. But for the most part, I'll go to restaurant where they have free parking or at least I can find free parking near the restaurant. I remembered getting a parking spot very close and feel like I feed the meter like 50 cents in 2014 parking prices for a quick 30 minute meal. They have all kinds of varieties of slices from the standard toppings or just cheese to fancy ones. Although the pizza is fairly thin, but average for New York style pizza. I tried Andy's Pizza 11 years later in 2025, and while it was solid although not as good as Wiseguy, my real complaint with Andy's was that the pizza is very thin, where I was hungry very soon later; so a much worse value as pricing is comparable to Wiseguy. Wiseguy slices are big, and the pizza is top notch New York style. I went to this location a couple of more times after my initial August 2014 visit as I loved the pizza. Then, they opened up other locations. I went to Navy Yard one at least twice, once after a Nationals baseball game after a disappointing loss for my 4th favorite baseball team, Texas Rangers. Sorry Nats fans, but Nats are in my bottom 10 teams. I also went to Rosslyn & Pentagon City location, where parking isn't quite as bad. They even had a Wheaton Mall food court location, which I got to experience once, but they sadly closed. Every experience with Wiseguy has been positive.

I'm going to miss this place when I leave. When it's Earlybird the breakfast burritos are excellent…read more(and huge!) At a reasonable price. I grab and use in their entirety both the orange-y hot sauce and the green sauce every time while adding hatch chiles to the simplistico burrito. I've shown several other people this place and they loved it as well. When it turns to side door they make some bomb Detroit style pizza. I truly haven't had a bad example of the style yet. I don't know if I'm selecting well or if it's maybe just low key the ultimate style of pizza but this is yet another fantastic example. It's just a small, quick takeout place for the most part, though there is some seating outside when the weather is appropriate. As such, service is generally to the point which is fine by me.

I Was Craving Pizza & Wanted To Try Something Different For Once. I've Been Hearing About This Spot…read moreFor Years But Never Actually Went... Until Now. Today Was The Day. Street Parking Only & It's Definitely Hit Or Miss. I Got Lucky & Found A Spot, But It Is Metered So Be Prepared To Pay. This Spot Is Literally A "Side Door" Located On The Side Of Scarlet Oak. Super Unique Setup With Cool Lights That Make It Easy To Spot. It's Different From Your Typical Pizza Place, Which I Actually Liked. Since It Was Monday, They Had Half-Off Pizzas If You Dine In & I Had To Take Advantage Of That. CHEESE PIZZA I Ordered A Cheese Pizza & Lemon Water. This Is Detroit-Style Pizza, So Don't Expect New York Style. It's Thick, With A Generous Amount Of Mozzarella Cheese & Tomato Sauce. Honestly, It Almost Felt Like A Cheesy Bread Situation But In A Good Way. The Crust Was Buttery With A Slight Crisp On The Outside & Soft Inside, Which Was The Perfect Balance. The Ingredients Tasted Fresh, & It Was Very Filling. The Size I Got Came With 4 Slices, & Honestly, 2 Slices Was More Than Enough. I'd Definitely Come Back & Bring My Son This Feels Like A Spot He'd Love, Especially If He's Into Breadsticks & Cheesy Pizza. The Staff Was Decent, Though I Didn't Interact Much. The Overall Setup Is Interesting, A Full Restaurant Vibe Inside With This Separate Pizza Concept On The Side. Different, But It Works. I'm Glad I Finally Tried It, Unique Setup, Solid Detroit-Style Pizza, & A Great Deal If You Catch It On The Right Day. Just Have To Be In The Mood For Detroit-Style Pizza.

I feel bad for only using this space as a pit stop, but I totally would come back again!

Cute little place that was all decorated for the season…read more This was our first time here & we had heard a good buzz about the place so we were excited to try it out & hankering for some good pizza. We arrived 20 minutes to closing, not realizing their hours, but they were open & it's pizza & cooks fast. Yet it was abundantly clear they were hoping no one walked in & we were told they were closing so we asked if we could order and they hesitated. We were about to leave when they said yes. We were a party of three & ordered three pizzas to share & try. They were decent and the other two really liked the dough but I actually did not care for it. They staff cleaned around us including at our table & had their music going. Then they sat on the counter and watched us, lol. Not a fun experience & we would not have bothered them had we known. If you are open then you are open, otherwise close up early. No real desire to go back!

When we first walked in, the cashier immediately apologized for the long wait times, thanked everyone for their patience, and let us know they were incredibly short staffed with only two people working. Because the tiny interior was already packed, we decided to leave and do some sightseeing first. However, seeing how good the pizza looked we knew we had to come back later that afternoon. There's no negative details in my review. Nothing but positive things and a small recommendation. 1. Staff and Service I really appreciated the cashier's honesty about running behind right off the bat. That allowed us to make an informed choice rather than get frustrated by a long wait. More businesses could learn from this! 2. Restaurant's Layout The inside is a bit tight and busy, but it's located in a smaller older building, so they have no other options. Since they can't expand the inside adding an outdoor pub height counter for eating, a bench or some seating out front would be a great way to give waiting patrons a place to sit. Also a place to eat. 3. The Pizza -The Veggie Pizza: My nephew and I both ordered this, and the slices were massive you'll see in my pics! They were honestly the largest slices I have ever seen! I love pizza and have eaten it in New York and Chicago, and my slice here held its own. It was loaded with a huge variety of vegetables. I requested to put mine through the oven twice to get the veggies warm and cooked because I noticed my nephew's slice looked like a warm salad on crust. So happy I did because it was delicious! The jalapeños were intensely spicy which is on me, since I'm a bit of a lightweight with spice! -The Meat Options: My son got the pepperoni and thought it was really good, and my husband got a supreme slice which he also said was good . 4. Price and pizza size- they're more expensive than a typical slice, but once you see those big ole slices in my pics you'll understand why. They can't even fit on a plate. They had to serve them to you in an actual pizza box! After reading my long review you're trying to find out if I would go back huh? Absolutely! If I ever in the area or stay at the Hilton DC again, I would definitely walk right on over and get a slice. You can feed a family of three on one slice! Adult and two small children!
