Awesome service. Great food. Pizzaria style ambiance. Takes care of customers despite Door Dash issues.

Pretty much the only edible slice of pizza in the whole of Washington DC (I've tried like 15 places). Horribly over priced and trying way too hard to be "artisanal" but everyone else is pretty much shilling chuck-e-cheese level pizza. Im sure theres something else edible but it's not as close or easy to get and i've heard of "Chicago" or "Detroit" styles being ok here but as far as I'm concerned thats a lasagna. But if you dont wanna spend the money id recommend something frozen over literally anything else in this g*d forsaken place. read more

Loved all their pizzas. Great service. I highly recommend this place. Panner pizza and veggie pizza are flavorful. read more

Boy oh boy, let me tell you about these garlic knots! I stopped in randomly hoping for something simple and tasty, and the garlic knots DID NOT disappoint! Great price, and amazing taste. They have just the right amount of seasoning and when you get them hot and fresh they really hit the spot. The place is clean and the staff is friendly and engaging. I'll be back read more

Wiseguy Pizza is a beloved pizza shop that's now in DC. This location is in Navy Yard in Canal Park in the middle of a park that houses a splash park in the summer and an ice skating rink in the winter. Inside the building is Wiseguy on one side with outdoor seating and Altani Gelato and Coffee on the other side. That way you can have lunch or dinner followed by dessert. The pizza itself comes by the slice and two slices is around $9. It's super greasy, but they sell some interesting slices like the Tandoori pizza, Korean chicken pizza, cheese, and everything in between. One thing that is super odd are the bathrooms. The restaurant itself is nice, but the bathrooms are down a long, dark staircase through a shady hallway. The entire experience makes you think you may be murdered. Other than that, this is an easy place to grab a quick bite if you're nearby in the park with your kids. read more

The most unique pizza options I have seen in my life. I tried the paneer tikka pizza and the Koran chicken pizza. Two slices definitely make a filling meal. Another slice that caught my eye was the Nashville hot chicken slide -- definitely on my list to try next. read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Before I ordered my pizza, a worker did a loud cough and spit. He reached under the table to spit. I do not know where he was aiming to spit but it was disturbing. What is more disturbing is the number of co workers (about 6) who did not say a word to him. They remained silent. It was loud and the restaurant was very quiet as I was the only one ordering at the time. He did not wash his hands. He did not change his gloves. He spit in proximity of the food, underneath the counter that holds pizza, stood upwards and proceeded to serve customers. The co workers not speaking up brings me concern about the culture of safety and hygiene In the workplace. The owner addressed the situation. As for the pizza. I frequent Wiseguys and it doesn't stand a chance against the Massachusetts Ave. Location. They had various freshly made pies but my supreme was not up to standard. The only crispy part of my slice was the crust. There was too much oil on top and underneath the slice. Because if this, my slice wouldn't stay put when I folded it in half. The toppings were sliding off and the bottom of the slice was limp and not staying in the folded position. I'm from Jersey so this pizza folding is serious business! read more

Warning: Do not pay for extra sauce, extra cheese or any customization if ordering online! This location will no longer make freshly made custom orders. You will be charged extra but you will get whatever pizza they already have sitting out. Most likely cold! It's one thing if there was no charge, but it is completely unacceptable to charge extra for a custom order and not provide what is paid for. If you want a freshly made pizza, you must go in person to watch them make the pie from start to finish. Do not expect a fresh pizza if you pick it up! Also, they will NOT respond if you contact them through their website. No way to get a refund. I used to love this location, but unfortunately it is just no longer reliable. read more

This distinctive freestanding building is in the little Canal Park, next to the skating rink in season. This is not the first business to inhabit this location, but I never bothered with whatever was there before. As a fan of the original Wiseguy, I have mixed feelings about their expansion (there are a few of them now). More pizza is good, but some loss of quality can come with expansion. This one seems to be doing alright though. The big negative was that I visited just as they were opening and they didn't have all their pizzas ready yet. But the basic ones I got were both excellent, a plain and a mushroom slice. There may be no floppier and more delicious pizza by the slice in DC (you can order a whole pizza, too, though a quick slice is generally most of their business). It's all wheat and dairy, so if you're avoiding one of those things, this is not the alternative pizza place you need. And I leave it to the New Yorkers to compare to their hometown, but to my tastebuds it's a quality slice. read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Buffalo Pie - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

We ordered delivery - they go through GrubHub; the pepperoni is what we got. It was delivered in reasonable time. The pizza was great! For me, the red sauce was a little sweeter than I was used to, but that's not necessarily a bad thing... also, a great crust, but not "quite" as crispy as I prefer, but all in all - a great pizza. 10/10 would do again!!! read more

Great for a quick pizza stop! Super fast service and delish flavor. The inside is small and mostly for quick bites.

Delicious pizza that you can order by the slice or as a pie! We got the godfather and liked it so much that we had to go back for another slice. The crust is so thin and crispy, and I loved the crust. Pretty generous with toppings. Make sure you grab napkins because they are greasy and drip grease as you eat! Definitely not healthy but it sure is tasty. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the price- $5 for one slice of pizza feels a bit much especially when the slices are not big and one is barely enough. Worth it if you are craving good pizza though! read more

We ordered delivery through GrubHub during COVID and were pretty blown away. These pies are (as promised) GIANT. The slices are true NY size and one pizza can easily feed 3-4 normal adults. So of course we ordered two pizzas. The house favorite was the paneer tikka pie. It really tasted like Indian food, and had this enormous variety of flavors (onion! Cream! Spice!). And it's even great cold the next day! Also good (although, in my opinion, less good cold) was the mushroom truffle pie. It had a nice amount of truffle flavor, although not a ton of mushrooms. (It's much more a "pizza with mushrooms" than a "mushroom pizza", if that makes sense.) Once we can visit in person, I'd like to try this one again straight from the oven. Delivery took a while but it was a Saturday night and this was (I think) the only location doing delivery. But based on how amazing the paneer tikka pie was, I think it will be sliding into our regular takeout routine. read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Paneer Tikka Pie and Mushroom Truffle Pie - both so good! - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I visited D.C. this weekend and heard great things about this place, so I decided to check it out myself. Absolutely delicious food ans great service all around. I ordered a single slice of buffalo chicken pizza and a garlic knot, and both were very tasty. The pizza was a great combination of buffalo with blue cheese, no one flavor was too overpowering. The chicken was nicely seasoned and tender as well. The garlic knot was fluffy and had plenty of garlic flavor. They also had a variety of interesting pizzas you'd never think about. Some of them ethnic like the paneer chicken pizza, some of them American dishes in pizza form. I'd be privy to try one of them the next time I visit here. If you're in D.C. around the Navy Yard area, I'd highly recommend stopping by here for a slice. read more

Came here on late Friday night and wasn't too busy. I got a Margherita pizza which was delicious. Saucy and crispy mmmmm. Doesn't take too long to heat them up. Great place to get some quick pizza! While I was waiting for my pizza to heat up, two of the employees were making conversation with me, and they were SOOOO nice!! When I asked which flavor they recommended, one of them said Buffalo, Chicken Parmesan, and Chicken Paneer. THEN HE PROCEEDED TO GRAB A CHICKEN PANEER AND HEAT IT UP FOR ME ON THE HOUSE T___T It was delicious... like an Indian meal in my mouth!!! I will definitely be back :-) read more

NEW YORKER APPROVED PIZZA!!!! This place is the bomb. Quality is on point every time I come and fellow NYers also named this place the best pizza in DC (note: there's multiple locations in DC) My fave slices: buffalo chicken, spicy pepperoni, chicken parm PRO TIP: they have hot honey to drizzle over your pizza if you ask for it !!! Bonus: there's a gelato shop on the other side. The gelato is very ehh but it's still a nice dessert. In the winter, the pizza/gelato shop is surrounded by an ice rink. In the summer, there's fun fountains for kids (or adults) to play in. Plus farmers markets in the spring/summer/fall on the weekends! read more

This is a hidden gem in canal park! I love how the pizza tastes and looks like the authentic NY style that I was craving. Even better was that they have other styles of pizza. I was a little apprehensive to try it since the price seemed high for a slice of pizza. They pre make a wide selection of their pizzas, so you can walk in and order by the slice. They heat up the selected slices in their pizza oven and within minutes you've got a piping hot pizza. If it's your 1st time I definitely recommend trying a few slices before committing to an entire pie. They've also got garlic knots! I agree with previous reviews that it's a little greasy but it's no worse than any other NY style pizza I've had. My personal favorites were their Cheese pizza and even the Paneer Tikka pizza! Viva la comfort food! read more

Nice pizza place, easygoing, fresh. This place is good for pizzas on the go. They have a lot of different flavors, from traditional pepperoni to curry chicken. Prices are very affordable, around $3.99 per slice. Another thing I like is that they close at 3 am on Friday and Saturday! A great option when everything In Navy Yard is already closed. read more

Got a takeout pizza, which is about $25 for a huge pizza. It fed two people with enough leftover for both of us the next day. Great quality and a great deal. Garlic knots were very good as well. read more

We tried Wiseguy Pizza before a National's MLB game. I'm from Jersey and grew up eating amazing pizza. I consider myself a pizza snob. Wiseguy's had absolutely fantastic pizza in the style NYers and Jersey folks will love. We also had garlic knots. The garlic knots were large, chewy on the outside, soft of the inside and had the perfect amount of butter and garlic. The man that helped us was friendly and welcoming. We will be back the next time we get to a game. Thank you for the clean restaurant and restrooms, great food and service. read more

Wiseguy is hands down my favorite slice in DC and I'm so happy to see them expanding to Navy Yard. This location is prime, and caters to the inevitable flow of fans by offering quick service, ample inside and outdoor seating, meal specials, and lots and lots of options. Grandma slices (thick squares), Mushroom Truffle, Paneer Tikka, Korean Chicken, lots of super loaded meaty options too. And for just over $3 for a slice of cheese and $4 for specialty slices, it is seriously good cheap eats. (AND DON'T FORGET THE GARLIC KNOTS! Swoooooooon) Crust-wise, it is perfection. Nice and crisp without carrying a burnt flavor that seems to be very popular at a lot of newer "hip" pizza places. If you get a slice with lots of toppings, your crust will not fail you. I miss my NYC days and honestly this is the closest you'll come in DC to getting a New York style slice. The staff is incredibly friendly, which is always a plus in my books. I come down to Navy Yard with my kids a lot during the summer, and I know that we will probably be hitting up Wiseguys at least once a week. They live up to their "damn good pizza" slogan for sure! read more

He even recommended the salads. Thanks you guys happy holidays read more

Wiseguys near Nationals Park needs CPR. Lit up brightly outside: inside are missing bulbs, no prices, no use of space for more tables. On top of that my girl's pie was overbaked, taken out, then immediately put back in the oven until slices were black. Pizza boys barely speak English do not give a f@&k. Boy I spoke to just said 'yeah, yeah...... man' and meanwhile left them in to burn. Thanks for nothing! Walk up for a slice that looks like it came down the chimney and was dipped in fireplace ash!

Great place! Such fast service and great pizza! Garlic knots are my absolute fav. Located in great location.

Went late night after an event downtown. Everyone is so friendly. My friend even helped them assemble pizza boxes while we waited. Pizza is pretty good. read more

Good pizza place. This place opens until 3am and they offer pizzas per slice, different flavors, from the most traditional to some unconventional but everything is valid in a pizza. They also offer complete pizzas with good size and at a good price. When serving pizza slices they heat them in a large oven and seem freshly baked. Wiseguy: good option at a good price read more

First things first: Wiseguy is my favorite pizza in DC. All right, now that that's settled...this was a welcome addition to Navy Yard. I have always loved that Wiseguy has uncommon types of pizza, like penne alla vodka, Buffalo, grandma (mozzarella & basil), mushroom truffle, and chicken Parmesan--among others. Like a real pizza place, they heat your slice before giving it to you (only the ratchet places don't do that). The penne alla vodka pizza is one of my faves. Yes, it's pasta on pizza, but sometimes you just want a big ol' carb fest. They always use fresh ingredients and are pretty friendly. Their pizza is pretty greasy, yes, but with a name like Wiseguy, they are not pretending to be some haute shop with low-carb, non-fat pizza (does that even exist??) Wiseguy is a win in my book! read more

So glad that this place opened up in navy yard! Their pizza is the closest thing to jersey/NY style pizza-by-the-slice that I've had in DC. It's quick, affordable, and nice and clean inside and outside. I enjoyed their plain cheese and mushroom truffle slices. My boyfriend had their chicken parm one which was delicious. I've heard their chicken paneer is also a tasty combination. Save room for gelato from the place right next door! read more

Lots of different options for cool pizza flavors! Love going here late night. The garlic knots are yum too

So as you may or may not know...I love pizza!! In that pie, or rectangle, or triangle there is a science that satisfies the elements of my being!! I love pizza!! So in my search for the perfect piece of pizza pie I was led to 202 M St., S.E. Washington D.C. where @wiseguy pizza resides. I hear about this spot a lot amongst pizza connoisseurs, so it was my time to try them. Ok so you can buy pizza by the slice in here (at about $5 a slice), or a whole pie (18' ranging from $20-$32). They have vegetarian pies like their Marhgerita Pie (tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, Parmigiano, and EVOO-a non-mechanical crushed olive process), and their Backyard Pie (tomato sauce, green peppers, red onions, mushrooms, Kalamata olives, chili peppers, and mozzarella, both for $30.22. They also have cauliflower crust options. They also have a slew of chicken specialty pies like their Spicy Nashville Hot Chicken Pie that wasn't available when I went in (with spicy Nashville hot sauce, crispy chicken, mozzarella, house ranch, and a cabbage mix). They have salads, chicken tenders, garlic knots, craft sodas, and NY Junior's Cheesecakes & Cookies. So I copped their square Spicy Roni (pictured-Spicy tomato sauce, thick aged pepperoni & sausage, fresh mozzarella, and Parmigiano-$33.46). This pie was delicious!! With premium ingredients, this pie held up, it was truly spicy, and the crust was crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Although I like a dense cheese on my pie (a Wisconsin brick cheese, or a Parmigiano-Reggiano mixed with my mozzarella) their cheese was true Italian mozzarella. Next I snatched a Cheerwine soft drink. It also was delicious, and reminded me of Rock Creeks Cherry Smash. I also got their chocolate cheesecake cake (pictured- a NY Junior's cheesecake stuffed inside a delectable chocolate cake $11)...STAMP!! Get it!! Trust!! Customer service started by being disengaging. It took a while for someone to come take my order. But it ended well, they answered all my questions, and accommodated me. The establishment was clean, and inviting. Parking was rough, and metered. This spot has good pies, cakes, and drinks.

Well, it is edible. I ordered a supreme 10" and it cost 17 bucks. For that much money I expect close to perfection, but no.... First the crust was so thin it collapsed when I picked it up. The tomato sauce was like catsup mixed w/ tomato paste and the the outer crust, usually my favorite part, was burned. Never again! read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

My fiancé and I have a lot of love for this place. We were first introduced to Wiseguy and Altani in Navy Yard through a Yelp Elite Event and haven't been able to stop since! It's definitely in our top two places for fantastic pizza in DC (the other being pizza from Il Canale). The fact that it's family owned is also a huge plus. I'm not sure what happened to Altani, but Wiseguy has been a family favorite -- especially during our move to Navy Yard. We recently moved from Dupont and during our move, we ordered Wiseguy's plain pizza, margherita pizza, and garlic knots. These 18" pizzas are HUGE and have giant slices. And the crust is also great. Being from the NYC area, the pizza standard is high. But Wiseguy always comes through and everyone (not that there are any gatherings anymore) loves it. There's also always leftovers! So we get this amazing pizza all week! It looks dreamy and it tastes dreamy. Personally, I'd probably want peppers and onions on it, but they know how to do plain DAMN WELL. It helps that we are literally a couple of blocks from Wiseguy. The delivery comes so quickly though DoorDash during this pandemic, but also we've picked it up. If we are picking up, we call the store and make an order. It's usually ready within 20 minutes. Couldn't be more convenient! We're back to the days where you order pizza over the phone and pick it up in person! We all think it's definitely worth it for the $$$, but it is a bit pricey. We got 3 pizzas and it came out to over $100. Both of our families request this, but we've conveniently not mentioned how much it costs since they are Indian and probably would think twice before wanting it again. Oh -- I forgot to mention their Paneer Tikka pizza! It's interesting to us that there are Indian flavors and that they make the paneer tikka and chutney so well! My finance, his brother, and even my dad (who is not a huge fan of paneer) LOVE it. They usually grab a couple of slices when they pick up the order to get the taste but enjoy the plain and margherita. We're so happy that we live so close and that Wiseguy is one of our staple places during this pandemic. We also love supporting local businesses! So we try to order one of our favorite places at least once a week. Thank you, Wiseguy! Looking forward to our future encounters!! read more

Holy Moly! Just across the street from my work is this unassuming little pizza joint (yes, that concrete structure next to the water fountains or ice rink, depending on the season). I got a slice of chicken paneer and holy geezus, I was impressed! They warmed the slice up in the oven for you first. Ok, really $4 for a slice? Call it a gourmet slice! Your taste buds will thank you! Chicken, masala sauce, paneer cheese, jalapeno, cilantro, onions and tomato all topped this delicious relatively thin crusted slice. This might have been the most perfect slice I've had. Good job Wiseguy! My wallet will be skinnier, but my hips will be wider! read more
