The pizza was absolutely amazing! The service was so friendly and helpful. The ambiance and atmosphere of the place was super cute but there is not much seating. read more

I tried to get a photo but the food disappeared way too fast. Being from NY originally not usually a fan of places that claim NY style pizza but this place lives up to the name. The Godfather is an assortment of meats and very delicious but may be a little to heavy for some. I highly recommend giving this place a shot, you won't be disappointed. Oh and I almost forgot the garlic knots are pretty amazing too. read more

If you're driving 40 mph down Lynn street and you see Wiseguy Pizza, undo you seatbelt, open your door, and jump out. The pizza here is a slam dunk. I had the buffalo chicken (twice) and a mushroom truffle both were phenomenal. Check this place out! You won't be disappointed . read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Buffalo pizza so big you need panorama. - Pizza Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

I typically love Wise Guys. However, we were in the mood for a Sicilian pie but were sorely disappointed in what Wise Guys provided. I am a NJ native who worked in multiple pizza shops as a teenager. I know what a proper Sicilian pie is. The Sicilian pie we got from Wise Guys was about 25% smaller than what you typically get in NY/NJ. This is easy to confirm as the pie doesn't fill up the box. A Sicilian pie should come with 12 slices. For almost $30, the Sicilian pie is essentially the same size as a normal pie with only 9 slices. This is ridiculous. I will never order a Sicilian pie from Wise Guys again. They pretend to be a NY style pizza shop but they overcharge by at least 5-10 bucks a pie versus any pizza shop on NY/NJ that I have ever visited and the Sicilian pie is a disgrace. Went back here and the pizza still sucks. read more

I'm gonna go with 5 stars because I BS'd and let my slices get cold. I got the Sicilian white pizza... if u grew up loving Pizza Hut pan pizza.... this is the better version of that. I'm getting the tomato sauce done next time. #Bliss And I got the chicken tikka (I think whatever flavor was NEW) it was good. But would've been better he I eaten it hot. read more

I think Wise Guys pizza is some of the best in the DC area. I am typically a pizza purist and only go for a slice of cheese but Wise Guys does loaded pizza well. The buffalo chicken and mushroom truffle are my favorite. I've also had chicken ranch, magharita, and paneer tikka which are good as well. I do think the paneer tikka could use some more flavor especially since it is going for a take on indian food. I think the price is a little high for a full pie (can be $25-30) but pizzas are pretty big and loaded. Overall, pizza is excellent and I would frequent here often. read more

Tasty! And my what big slices they are! We got a pep pizza with garlic knots to try. It was good - I look forward to trying their specialty slices next time! read more

While a slice here pales in comparison to Pete's New Haven Pizza, Wiseguy is a plenty decent substitute. The difference in taste is more than made up for by Wiseguy's location, price, and service. CARRYOUT: as a fan of the grab-and-go, Rosslyn was (as you'd expect) quiet and relatively empty on the Tuesday night we stopped by. We had no problem parking up curbside at 7 PM, and running inside to grab our order. Far easier than fighting the hoards of traffic at Clarendon! GARLIC KNOTS: while I found the pizza exceptionally unremarkable, the garlic knots were remarkably exceptional! Doughy and flavorful, with just the right balance of outer crisp and inner chewiness, after dunking a couple of bad boys in the marinara I almost forgot there was a whole pizza left to tackle! PIZZA: the all-important crust here is where this pie fell short for me, with a plenty decent topping of cheese and sauce doing most of the heavy lifting. While better than the average, Wiseguy's dough is baked just short of the satisfying crunch I crave, lacking the faintly salty, sourdough edge that makes a good New York slice what it is. read more

Wiseguy is an above-average New York style pizza, but its strength lies in its toppings: not the most creative but generously heaped. Pizza purists and native Italians would probably scowl but I quite enjoy having piles of meat as a topping choice. On the other hand, its crust is a little tough and its service is a little dry. My most lasting impression is that there was a [trapped] bird flying around inside, which was kind of twee, but also possibly a health code violation. Alas, one man's whimsy is another man's terror - some of my friends were not amused. Work paid for dinner and even after three slices + garlic knots I found myself struggling to spend what I normally do. Hard to tell if this is a testament to Wiseguy's low prices or my ongoing struggle with portion control. read more

I came here after the Wreaths for America event with a few people from my meetup group and we were starving. So, the place is not that big--two tables that seat four people and a bar with about six bar stools. There is one bathroom but it's clean. There are two smallish round tables out front with some chairs. I ordered a pepperoni and a margherita pizza while others in the group ordered the buffalo chicken, cheese slice and mushroom truffle. I really liked the pepperoni! It was close to the Brooklyn style pizza that I grew up eating. The margherita was disappointing--too soggy. It didn't have the same crispiness as the pepperoni. I also overheard someone from my group saying that they preferred the pepperoni to the buffalo chicken. Personally, when it comes to pizza, I'm simple--I don't want random toppings or flavors so buffalo chicken wouldn't have appealed to me. The staff was friendly and patient. They didn't have the price listed inside (unless I didn't notice it). My bill came up to $10 and change for two pizzas and a bottle of water. If you have a taste for NYC style pizza instead of all of this gourmet stuff, give this place a try. 3.5 stars read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Margherita pizza - Pizza Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Best pizza I have had in a long time. Try the chicken paneer! Wow!

Hey... its fast food pizza. I thought it was a bit too thin, but my roots are in Chicago. This place was exactly like I remembered NY style pizza. The flavor is aright and they do have some decent garlic knots to compliment the pizza. Tons of options if you want something less traditional, like Hawaiian or Curry pizza. Overall, it is a decent place for a quick lunch. The inside is tiny and I would make plans to eat elsewhere if you plan on going anytime between 11-1 for lunch. read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Here is their take out menu. Like Will Rogers would say: "If you've got a big gun, shoot it!" - Pizza Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Maybe I went on a bad day when I did my initial review 3 years ago. This time the crust was firm and the pizza was tastier. They had a lot of options by the slice, A person next to me had a slice of the Penne al Vodka, which looked delicious. Still pricey of course. But I don't need to eat pizza that often anyway read more

This is a perfect grab and go pizza place near the metro. I thought I was in NYC again after eating here. The service is great and pizza is amazing. Each slice comes in its own box in case you can't finish a slice (but let's be real, it's too good not to eat it all in one meal). We came here around 8:30 pm on a Wednesday and I ate a slice of Margherita and Mushroom truffle pizza in less than ten minutes. I probably ate 2,000 calories but the taste of NYC pizza brought me back to a the days when hole in the wall pizza spots existed on every other corner for decent prices and you could enjoy quality pizza in a casual and comfortable environment. read more

They had Amazing pizza, perfect NY style crust, but the last time I got pizza there (I normally eat there about once a week) it seems they have changed the cheese and it's not good. It seems to be a cheaper blend more like Cici's, instead of the awesome cheese they had before. Either that or they way over cheesed it, but I'm telling you it tasted different. I hope they go back to the old blend because it's the best pizza I've had outside of NY (have family there and go regularly). I usually get plain cheese pizza, and I work near here which is why I go so often. read more

Advertised or known for "New York style pizza", this is not exactly what I found. There was one person working and he greeted us as soon as we walked in. The pizza options were plenty but you could tell they were sitting out for a while. There were also some options written that weren't actually available. The pizza itself tasted okay, but I didn't think it was better than Pizza Hut or Papa Johns... definitely great pizza for when you're drunk at 3:00 am and are craving pizza. I would give it another try because I do think it's better than the experience I had. read more

So I have been here twice...the first time I ordered a bacon, basil, and pepperoni pizza. Delicious. A legit 5/5, best pizza I've had in DC. Few weeks later (this past Saturday) I finally return and this time order their "Godfather" pizza (basically meat lovers). Order online for take out. I get there, pick up my pizza, and walk the 2-2.5 blocks back to my apartment. Smells great. I open the pizza box and......Not good! It literally looks like the top half slid off/melted off? I'm not sure. Very disappointing, especially after how good the pizza was the first time. read more

Stumbled upon this gem after coming from a nearby office building. The location is convenient if you work in the area but if you are making a pit stop, it's a pain. There is no parking and construction everywhere so you can't really pull over. I hit the spot during lunch time so the line was towards the door. They need a better system bc the place is small so after you place your order, pay, you are standing around crowding the register and tables waiting. The pizza is delicious. I got a slice of cheese and topped it with the oregano, crushed red peppers, and garlic powder. They also carry JUNIOR'S CHEESECAKE!!! This is a must try if you are in NYC so i'm impressed they have it by the slice here. read more

Well. The pizza was awesome. The price a bit much. The staff was real nice even though we got a few weird looks because of the crazy kids we brought with us. Overall. Pretty good, just a bit overpriced for pizza. read more

Tasty, made on time. It's refreshing to find a pizza vendor that can accommodate the special diet needs of our work team (vegan, vegetarian and meat lover). Thank you! read more

Great place, love the huge pieces of pizza you can buy and the garlic knots! Customer service is also amazing!

It's good New York pizza style. Recommend sticking with cheese or pepperoni which they do extremely well In my humble opinion. We had ordered the Whitestone with chicken which looked like breaded thin cutlets. Breading seemed a bit odd in comparison to non-breaded chicken found at most other pizza places but thats a side point. We found this pizza very dry as if the cheese combo or lack of sauce or the combination of all of the above with the breaded chicken contributed to the lackluster outcome. So if you want the best N.Y. pizza I've found in the area and stay within the red sauce style look no further. We've been twice in a month or so and will be back but stick to the staple pizza varieties. read more

It was good experience but as someone who loves pizza, i think it can do better. I will return to try other pizzas too! The one I got for dinner was buffalo with some chicken. For me, one is kind of not enough and two is way too much. Fast and cheap place to go if you are craving some pizza read more

Wiseguy Pizza - Buffalo pizza i got today. - Pizza Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

This pizza is great I love the flavors and the cheese/sauce combo matches perfectly for me. If you love sweets try the carrot cake cheese cake! Its amazing as well. The service is pretty fast since they are use to a lunch rush. This is more like a homemade pizza not a commercial spot like domino's or pizza hut. I'm not a pizza expert so I will not say its authentic or NY style per say but it taste like others who claim NY style. If you like pizza give this place a try its flavorful. read more

I was so excited to chomp down on this pizza. Again, let's not forget I'm a NYC pizza professional. This is what I get paid to do gals and guys. So let's go down the list, shall we? Look of pizza-check Smell-check (but all pizza smells good) Feel-oooh yeah, feels so real Taste-Fugget about it. No good Now let's put things into perspective. This joint is owned buy a Turk whose intentions were noble but the product just fell short. The sauce was really the only thing that was not good. It's just tasted very bland and didn't have anything to hang your head on. I don't know guys and girls, I guess New York City pizza is truly all about the water. I am at a loss and officially depressed now. There is no good New York City pizza equivalent in this godforsaken town. And there you have it folks, another real deal no-frills review from yours truly. Since the posting of this review the owner has contacted me and I will oblige him and try the pizza again. Very nice and very professional guy. I really want this place to work out. Truly I do. read more

I think wiseguy pizza is the best pizza I have ever had in my life specialy grandma , mushroom truffle and chicken parmesan

Pretty damn good pizza. In the never ending search for real NYC pizza in D.C, we stumbled upon this place. A typical hole in the wall with one big table and a few high top spots, this place has a trendy NYC vibe. During lunch, the line can be out the door so get ready to order. The pizza choices are unique but familiar: everything from pepperoni, chicken bacon ranch, Margarita, chicken tikka masala, buff chix, cheese, etc. Between my man and I, we got 4 slices: pepperoni, Margarita, meat lovers, and chicken bacon ranch. The crust is pretty similar to NYC style but not as thin and flimsy (could be a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it). The toppings were tasty and the pizza tasted fresh (and looked fresh, sometimes the pizza at other place sitting out looks over a day old). It's still not quite to NYC style but a very close second, but not super cheap either. read more

The owner contacted me and they are working toward improving their service and this one thing I care about because I love wisely pizza!

This place is always consistent. I also recently tried the Backyard and Penne Alla Vodka pizza's and those were also amazing. My top three are now Chicken Paneer, Penne Alla Vodka and Backyard. I SO wish they could do half and half for specialty pizza. Tempted to host a party just so I have an excuse to order a pie of all three haha. :) read more

I really enjoyed my lunch slices. Good selection, quick service and convenient location all contributed to my great experience. I wish they had more room to eat in the restaurant, but they did a fantastic job on the food. I'll be back the next time I'm in Arlington... read more

We walked to the restaurant from our hotel and we were glad we did. The pizza is available by the slice and is delicious. They have both traditional red sauce pizza as well as white pizza. Our family ordered six different assorted slices. They were all great. We also ordered two different types of salad. Also very yummy. There is a good assortment of beverages also. The staff is super friendly. The prices are great. I would have given them five stars, if not for the limited seating. We had five adults and two children in our group and sat at small tables on the sidewalk. This looks to be super take out spot or eat in for couples. Jus not set up for larger groups and we are ok with that. Thanks! read more

This is the best pizza ever but I was greatly disappointed the last time I was there. Came in for a slice after work, they guys working were on their dinner break, that didn't bother me, we all gotta eat. When the guys that were eating came behind the counter to serve the pizza, they put on the gloves, started to get the pizza while slightly chewing and did not wash their hands! Wanted to say something but I was too dam hungry as I was too busy to get lunch that day. I know they had the gloves on, but it's still kinda gross thinking about it as they chew over your slice. After that as I was eating my slice and the guy that served me came to finish his meal, again, don't care we all gotta eat, but when he began licking his fingers I just felt a bit grossed out again. If he washed his hands, no problem! Also, noticed they went to cheap paper cups, now I'm not a cup snob, but it makes me wonder what's next? Lower quality dough, cheese, ingredients? Again, I absolutely LOVE this pizza. I'm from Louisiana and lived in Italy for 2 years so I am very picky about my food, I know quality when I taste it and wise guy has that quality. I know you are growing in this area, but please don't lower your standards and service. Quality and service is why this is some of the best NYC style pizza in the DMV! read more

October 21st 2018- We are Chicagoans so it's a given we love pizza. Wiseguys is Extremely flavorful and super cheesey in a good way. We got the large and it easily fed 3 hungry adults. Good atmosphere is Rosslyn, VA. We were staying at the nearby Holiday Inn and needed a less expensive option for a filling dinner. We got the thin crust supreme and it was very good. Good value for the money, $25.99 + tax. read more

I highly recommend Wiseguy Pizza if you want a good all around pizza. All of their whole pizzas have been excellent! I particularly like their original types of pizza, such as their Chicken Paneer Tikka, or the Korean Chicken. They are unique and delicious. I didn't love the Nashville Hot, which tasted more like a Buffalo Chicken to me. My one caveat is that if you order by the slice, they can be dried out from sitting under the heat lamp for too long. The whole pie is the better way to go! read more

The Buffalo chicken pizza from Wiseguy is one of the most satisfying slices of pizza you'll probably ever have in your life. Go during the mad lunch rush that lasts from about 12-1. The line will surely be almost out the door and the wait might seem like too much but they're cooking up fresh pizzas by the minute and this is THE best time to get them. Whoever said "get 'em while they're hot" was definitely referring to this. Back to the pizza. The Buffalo chicken has the PERFECT drizzle of Buffalo sauce and blue cheese(ish) (ish because it doesn't taste too blue cheesy to me). The crust isn't too thin and isn't too thick, the perfect middle ground. I also really like the chicken Parmesan pizza if you're looking for a more homey, comfort slice. If you're in the mood for dessert, they have Junior's cheesecake and it is THE BEST. Don't pass it up if you like cheesecake. read more

In town, just arrived from the airport, walking to the hotel, and I saw Wiseguy's. Got two slices of cheese. Very solid. There were more choices, varieties, but I was happy with what I got. Loved the Jamaican vibe. read more

I typically don't write reviews for fast-food type places but Wiseguy deserves one. This establishment is a couple doors down from my workplace and I am glad I got to try this place out recently. They serve NY style pizza (huge slices)- I opted for two slices of the NY supreme with a delicious Mexican Coke. Upon ordering your pizza, they will heat it up in the oven (takes ~2-3 minutes). I will say their slices are a bit greasy but it isn't too bad compared to other places I have been to. There really isn't much to say besides they serve excellent pizza and the service is also very good. read more
