    14" RANDOLPH PLACE
    Suzie Z.

    I tried takeout from here last night and ordered two pizzas. We got the Crispus Attucks (vegetarian) and Randolph Place (meaty), along with Brussels sprouts and a burrata salad. What stood out to me right away was how refreshingly light the pizzas were. They are not as oily as other spots I've tried, which was perfect for my taste. The dough was fresh and airy, with a nice chew to it. Between the pizzas and sides, the portions were solid--easily enough to feed six females. Overall, it's a great option for a more balanced take on pizzas, especially if you're looking for something satisfying without the grease.

    BACIO'S WINGS

    Fantastic service. They were accommodating for myself and my service dog. The food was incredible. I got the Buffalo Wings as an appetizer and the 10" Eckington. Both were amazing and left nothing to be desired. The atmosphere of the dining room upstairs was comfortable and warm. Felt like a scene out of a movie. Especially if you get one of these balcony seats. 10/10 will be back.

    The uncovered portion of the patio

    This is one of those spots I consider to be a "hidden gem" because I've never heard anyone talk about it and it's slightly tucked away in the shaw neighborhood. We stumbled upon it while looking for a dog-friendly spot to grab lunch last Saturday. They have a cute patio which is decorated in two very different ways - the covered patio is very classic, wicker chairs and simple decor (with heaters for once the weather turns colder). The open patio has a very trendy decor style, with faux flowers and a cute wall that would make for a nice photo background. The service was great - we were the first ones there for lunch but even as it got busier, our server was always around and ready to help us out. I grabbed a local Senate lager from Right Proper Brewing Co and my husband grabbed an Amber beer. We started with the French fries and Brussel sprouts, which were good. My husband felt the brusell sprouts were a little undercooked, but I liked them as-is. For pizza: he did a plain cheese and I got the Randolph Place. I loved that so many of the names were true to DC and paid homage to neighborhoods!! I would describe the pizza as similar to a dominoes pizza style - but waaayyyy elevated. They aren't on the same tier at all, but I draw the comparison when thinking of crust thickness; that style of pizza I haven't really had anywhere else. This place uses the highest quality ingredients, everything was fresh, and the pizza was cooked to the PERFECT level of done-ness. Crispy crust, beautiful bubbling of the cheese, and the sauce is JUST right. Next time I was to try one of their organic cocktails which are advertised, and maybe the mozz sticks, which look bomb! This spot, Andy's Pizza, and Della Barba hold the title as top 3 pizza joints in DC (in my mind). Go check them out!

    On a quick trip to DC, when a friend asked if there was a good pizza place in the area, I remembered Bacio's quaint patio on a side street in Shaw. I'm glad I did because on a surprisingly cool summer evening, there was little more one could ask for than sipping on an Aperol spritz here and sharing a bruschetta as the afternoon winded down. We shared a pizza with gorgonzola and caramelized roasted garlic, and a Nona option with chunks of eggplant on top, both delicious pies somewhere between Neapolitan and a NY slice pie. While perusing the menu, we noticed a white cheese filo pastry advertised that sounded suspiciously like sigara böreği. After some inquiring, we found out that the owner is in fact Turkish! We tried an order and enjoyed the unique baked variety paired with marinara sauce.

    Randolph Place
    John K.

    Unfortunately like so many places that start off great, this is crumbling under terrible customer service. When a place is charging upwards of $40 for a 14" pizza, you have to excel across the board. The city is too expensive for weak excuses.

    Eckingtons Pizza
    John S.

    Wanted to try out a new pizzeria and picked this one. We got the Eckington's and they were very pleasant/accommodating for a takeout order. I asked if they could replace the caramelized onions with another ingredient, and they obliged. I also requested extra sauce and they said of course. So overall a very easy and quick order experience. Also very much enjoyed the pizza. The crust and pizza itself was crispy, but not hard enough where you keep chewing. The sauce was a good tomato sauce, but feel like they could add more garlic here or something. I enjoyed the ingredients overall, but wish they had toppings with more of a zing like pickled jalapeños or giardiniera. Didn't get a feel for the ambiance, but saw they had outdoor patio tables for the summer. They have good takeout specials online as well, so would recommend looking into that if you're picking up!

    Seating Area

    soooooo yum. the food is super good and fresh, the place is super small and cute, but very nice. i would definitely go back, and would be fun for a date night. the staff is great, great restaurant!

    CALZONE (CUSTOMIZED)
    Boobie D.

    uber eats delivered but the calzone was huge && worth every dollar because im sure you cant finish the entire thing in one sitting! all the food was fresh except the mozz sticks were okay as they seems not to be fried enough (thank goodness for a airfryer reheat)! i would for sure order from here again the next time im craving a calzone! might try the pizza next too. its the ninja turtle in me?

    Oh how I want to give this place more stars! But, let me share my experience. I was introduced to this place over the weekend and thought I'd give them a personal try. I walk up and there it is a quaint little restaurant. Who would have known! We decide to eat in since they have their patio. The Flies were like vultures and it was hard to eat in peace. I strongly recommend taking out. As we are enjoying the meal, I hear a man start mumbling to himself. He goes in the establishment and comes out with all the employees. He is now scolding all of them, for what I could gather he was upset about trash and dirt on the sidewalk. Personally I didn't notice any of that, the big concern for me were the DC flies that were flying around the pizza. The issue for me was having to watch the employees get in trouble for something so meaningless. It was unprofessional and arrogant. I really love this place but I also love kind people and the owner was a tyrant. I hope he sees this and realizes how his actions made a repeat customer not ever want to come back. Did we receive a hello? Nope! Did he say thanks to us? Nope! Did he ask how are meal was? Nope! Yeah, How logical is that?

    Mediocre pizza man. Not much flavor to speak of in the under cooked dough. Very overpriced for not very good food. Tis the standard DC.

Now for the atmosphere, it was so so elegant in there even thinking about it now makes me want to go back just to stare at those wax candles that creates mountains of dripped wax which is its own kind of art. Next, let's take about the mouthwatering and delicious food we had. I ordered the Vodka Sauce Pasta and it was the perfect amount of heat and flavor. I also got a side of garlic bread and it was so crispy, light, buttery, and garlicky, just like I like it. My husband ordered the Drunken Love Pizza and of course I had to try a slice and WOWWWW. That one slice of pizza had me drooling it was so yummy!! Everyone enjoyed their food and it was great time. Now, on to my cake, I'd brought candles, plates, and even a knife with me to cut the cake. To my surprise, they brought the cake out with lit candles and everyone sung Happy Birthday to me. They even cut and served the cake to us. Keep in mind, there was not a charge on the bill for this either. It truly made my birthday even more special. Grazie Nonna, you don't understand how happy you made me feel that day. Thank you so much for the love shown on my special day. I will forever tell people this story. Thank you!

I ordered the polpette, meatballs to start. They were quite tasty, but the sauce was a bit watery. Think that's just because the meatballs themselves were pretty juicy. Heard the focaccia was a hit, so asked for some of that. I was told they didn't have any left. Which was weird, because then another server came and asked if I wanted bread. I'm glad I said yes because the focaccia is very fresh and was a great addition to the meal. For my main, I ordered the vodka pasta, which was very flavorful and very saucy. I love a good, thick vodka sauce and that's what you'll get here. The one part of the pasta I didn't really enjoy was the chicken inside the pasta. I think I would've preferred a grilled chicken option instead of the chicken that comes in the pasta. That being said, this place is a gem. The prices are great and the portions are hearty. The pasta is thick, you're really coming here for fresh noodles and ingredients. If you want to top your meal off just right, you'll get the chocolate lava cake. Very delicious! Service was good and staff was very attentive!

Not saying that dining companions are distracting, but I felt like I could fully experience the flavor of both the Taglioni Neri and Gnocchi, both half portions at $10 each, better on my own.

The standout in the Neri were the shellfish for me. Even though they were small bits, the pieces tasted fresh. In the Gnocchi, the saltiness of the prosciutto, though not overwhelming, paired well with the basil sauce. I finished a little more than half of each plate before boxing it up for a small lunch the next day. The service was great and the tall ceiling and windowed dining room provided a nice atmosphere. It was a cloudy and rainy Memorial Day, but I wondered what the sunlight looked like shining through those high windows. How lovely a space they have created to enjoy fine Italian dining in.
