This was not the easiest place to locate, but it turns out to be next to the bagel place in the alley. It is a pure takeout. Selections are few, but I suspect most customers know what they want. The vegetable Chicago style pizza that I ordered delivered a mouthwatering aroma. The default size says served 1 to 2 and I don't know how any one person would finish one of these things. It was quite oily, the crust quite caramelized. All the vegetables still came through quite nicely. It took me three goes to actually finish it as it was so indulgent. There's not a lot else from them that I would want, but they provided what they said they would. read more

The DC Chi Pie - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Ordered from here for the first time. Hubby and I ordered the normal size chicken cheesesteak pizza and added bacon. Total came out to approximately $33, with the extra bacon for an extra $1. What's hot - Quality. One of the best quality deep dish pizzas I've had. The crust is thick, substantive, and holds up well underneath the wonderful amount of topping/filling. It's soft and chewy on the inside, and has a nice crunch on the outside. It's also not oily, which I really appreciate. There is no skimping on the toppings/filling, which my husband and I love. The meat was tender and juicy. There was a good amount of sliced bell peppers, as well. The filling was flavorful, well seasoned, and not too salty. The structure of the pizza held up well as my husband and I noshed through the pizza. We love that the crust is not floppy. - Menu. Good variety. There's something for everyone, possibly with the exception of vegan. I didn't see vegan cheese on the menu. However, I saw a smoked salmon pesto pizza on the menu. Pretty impressive options. - Price. Excellent value for money, especially given the portion size. The normal size pizza is their smaller size pizza, which was enough to feed myself and my husband. - Service. Pretty good. When we arrived, we were told it would take 10 more minutes. When we first put in our order for the cheesesteak pizza, they updated us that they were out of steak and asked if we were alright substituting chicken for steak. Be prepared to wait the maximum amount of time for your order, because they appear to put in the time in handcrafting each pizza order. Totally worth the wait. When they gave us the order, they opened the lid of the pizza box to let us to see our pizza. My response? I literally said, "Damn." Haha... What's not - Location. To be fair, this is specific to me and my husband, but this place is a little farther from us. Additionally, parking around this area may not be the most convenient depending on the day and time. This place is in the middle of a fairly large alley. As such, there is enough room to park your car by the restaurant, but it'll depend on the time and circumstances when you get there. There's also no seating. It appears to be strictly a takeaway joint, which is not a big deal, but it'll depend on how hungry you are and whether you're equipped to keep the pizza warm on your way home. - Service. They appear to be on all the takeaway food apps, which is helpful. However, they're not always consistent with updating the apps. For example, the first time my husband and I tried to order from there, we arrived and the restaurant was closed. When we picked up our order this time, we explained our previous situation to confirm the days and times they're actually open. They explained to us that they probably forgot to update the apps on their holiday hours. My point is it might be helpful to call and confirm that they're open, depending on when you're putting in an order. Final Answer Definitely plan on returning and worth it for a great quality deep dish pizza. read more

The DC Chi Pie - Chicken Cheesesteak Deep Dish Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

High quality crust, hefty portions but not quite for me. From the sweet sauce to the minimal amount of toppings this pizza missed the mark a bit for me. That being said the crust was outstanding and the service was prompt. read more

This place is so good! The owners are married and have a sweet story. This was a creative menu and I got the Georgetown! It was so good!! 10/10! Perfect crust (not too mushy and not too burnt or firm) plus a cheese pull! read more

These pie's are truly original and truly delicious! The salmon pesto and veggie with chicken sausage are my favs! The customer service is amazing and I love how clean the space is. I always get extra sauce on the side to dip the crust in. You must try it, trust me you won't be disappointed. The DC Chi Pie is a staple pizza joint in our Nations Capital and will also be for MD & VA! read more

Got specialty pizzas, YES. For leftovers, NO. The pizza should be eaten the same day of purchase. Enjoyed & comfortable of the way purchase is done. A little complicated & hard to find parking to pick up pizza. In a revitalized area. read more

Now that is deep dish!!! lol That pie weighed more than my toddler! When I tell you a singleton can spend 3 days MNM getting full off one pie!! Baybee! We could have split one and still had left overs. Packed with Fresh ingredients & has a good crust. My only con was that the sauce made the bottom very wet and not so sturdy but not sure that can be avoided without compromising the packed hearty goodness of the filler. I also like my sauce a tad sweet but that's easy to adjust on my personal slice so others in the fam can also adjust or keep as they like. Definitely coming back to try the DC pie. Thank you for being on door dash so we can try it out in the burbs! Good eats. Check them out and bring your knife and fork... read more

By far the best pizza I've ever had. The Detroit pizza crust was buttery, flaky and delicious. The Chicago style pizza was seasoned just right with a sweetness to the crust. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by a server that explains the different style crusts and gives recommendations. We dined in, luckily while a table was available and enjoyed the clean restaurant and atmosphere. Highly recommended, run don't walk to grab you a pie. read more

Hands down, its the best gourmet pizza in the region. DC ChI Pie would be my life time entry into any Best of the Best Pizza Challenge in any city for that matter. Each pie is created as if food cost was of no concern...inducing that homemade over the top indulgence! I'm Vegan.... But I'm defeated and make exception for this experience. read more

Got the personal pie, hot and savory. Last few weeks l was jonesing for a Chicago pie. Came across DCP. And wanted to try to see if it hit the spot. Yep tamed it with the first bite! You can only call and order to take out so that's a problem in that they are to far away for me. Maybe one day. Still when l find myself near l will definitely consider getting another pie! read more

DC CHI PIE They used to be located inside a grocery store On Marlboro Pike (Coral Hills) . When the grocery changed back to Shoppers, they were gone and I wondered what happened to them. I saw them featured on WJLA and was happy because I had forgotten the company name. The Pizza was fabulous and I'll be ordering from the new location. I also saw they have special Bread Pudding. Can't wait to try it. read more

This was the best Chicago-style pizza I've had outside of the Chi. It will even give most Chi-town favorites a run for their money. The DC Chi Pie is my new go-to pizza. Service was great. Just call ahead about 30-mins so you can just pull up, grab your pizza and go. read more

It was absolutely delicious was skeptical because I pulled up to a house but I needed to see where i spent my money ! But overall I was pleased with my order and it was scrumptious read more

The DC Chi Pie - Chicken sausage and turkey pepperoni deep dish - Pizza Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Native Chicagoan here. Born 'n raised. This stuff is real deal and as good as anything I've had back home. I was a bit circumspect initially because the owner, Mr Grant Thompson, is a native Washingtonian. A Washingtonian??? Luckily I was comfortable enough with the reviews to give it a shot, especially given there's a scarcity of authentic deep dish choices around town. By scarcity, I mean none. Mr Thompson said he visited Chicago years ago and loved the pizza so much It became a passion for him. Hell, I can appreciate that! And like they say,"it ain't where you're from it's where you at." He had a commercial space which was sold and he's in the midst of acquiring a new one in downtown DC near the Convention Center, but in the meantime he's operating out of his home. I wasn't prepared to see a residential property when I pulled up but his signage is outside and he met me at the door with an apron and a smile. We talked food, his perspective and his passion for his craft for a while before I went outside to wait in my vehicle for the pizza. Takes about 35-45 minutes to prepare. I got a sausage and pepperoni and I also tried one that Mr Thompson invented himself, he said - pesto and salmon. The pesto substitutes for regular tomato sauce. I spent $63 for two of these pizzas. If you know deep dish you only need one slice and you're full. The "personal" size easily feeds three people. Possibly a fourth. The crust on these beauties is buttery and flaky just like back home. The toppings are flavorful and abundant and the boxes are heavy as heck when loaded. His son forgot to put my peppers and onions on my sausage pizza but after biting it I didn't even mind, especially since he put them in a plastic container on the side. I'll definitely be returning to visit although it'll probably be when he's In his new space downtown. He said he's going to try his hand at some authentic Chicago sandwiches too, like the world famous Italian Beef - which I shall most assuredly look forward to. A little slice of home always feels good. read more

I ordered chicken sausage and turkey pepperoni deep dish pizza, and it was absolutely disgusting. First of all, the pizza wasn't done in the center and the bottom was soggy. The top and bottom of the pizza was hot, but the center was lukewarm. Furthermore, the pizza was bland. Ordered through DoorDash and NEVER again. read more

If you haven't had one (or several) of their pies you owe it to yourself. They are deep dish wonders and customizable to your liking. Give them a try!! read more

So my local pizza shop is temporarily closed and I decided to see if I could find someplace else to satisfy my craving for pizza. I am from Chicago, so I was excited to see how this place was, especially after seeing and reading such excellent reviews on multiple platforms. Unfortunately, this was not my favorite. I did get the chicken sausage since I don't really eat pork and I mixed it with spinach. That's what I grew up eating at different pizzerias in Chicago. Perhaps I should have tried the pepperoni had I known it was turkey and also not made from pork because the pizza is really sweet. Is it the chicken sausage? It tastes like perhaps it's the cheese too. I think this pizza presents beautifully an is reminiscent of my hometown, but it was not a familiar taste by any means. Perhaps the new option will grow on me. read more

The turkey pepperoni deep dish is delicious. I usually order from Uber eats and haven't had any problems.

My dad's 70th birthday is coming up and he lives in Florida so I wanted to bring him DC Chi Pie since where he lives they have nothing like it. I placed my order online and called around the time I was going to pick it up. I asked if they could give me a extra pizza box since I was going to travel on a plane with the pizza. Jay was more than accommodating and fulfilled my request even better by fitting the pizza in an enclosed aluminum container. I have always raved about their pizza but this small act of kindness takes them over the top. Thank you so much! read more

I was really excited to try this Chicago style pizza. While I'm originally from NY and love NY style pizza as my first love, I moved to the Midwest after college and grew to love this deep dish Chicago style pizza too. So when I took a job in DC and wanted pizza, I was glad to stumble upon this place while searching Yell for good pizza. They did not disappoint. The pizza was perfectly Chicago style. I'll definitely be ordering again. Plus the owners are great. I'm looking forward to their location opening up soon. read more

OMGOODNESS this pizza is one of the best I've ever had; and certainly THE BEST in the DMV. I got the smaller size and it fed 3 adults. The crust was both soft and crunchy, the sauce was zesty, the toppings were great as well. I was a little thrown off when my GPS landed me in front of a house to pick up my phone order, but the owner brought it to the car. I WILL BE BACK. read more

What a treat! I really enjoy some real deep dish pizza. I ordered their Deep Dish Pepperoni Pizza and it did not disappoint. The crust is flaky and crispy, just the right consistency. They also put a lot of cheese. It definitely lived up to the hype. I will definitely order again! read more

It's been about a year since I last had this pizza but I'm just back from Chicago in the last week and couldn't wait to have that other popular spot out there (that starts with a G) to compare. I gotta say .... This one is better! It's the crust for me! The crust on this one is so buttery and flaky, even a couple of days later (because who can eat it all in one day??) So now, I can't wait to have this one again! read more

I was born and raised in Illinois but have resided in Maryland for the past several years. The one thing I have not been able to find in this area is Chicago style deep dish pizza; that is until today. During a recent online search I came across DC Chi Pie. I placed my order online and the pizza was ready at the promised time. I am happy to share that the deep dish cheese pizza I ordered was very good. I definitely recommend this establishment especially if you have a craving for Chicago style deep dish pizza. read more
