    Go-to late-night spot for NY-style pizza. Can't decide which one to order? Get on slice of each!

    Wiseguy is one of the few places in D.C. to find authentic New York-style pizza. The restaurant also offers some New York standards like garlic knots and chicken rolls. Read more

    Surprised to find this NY-style joint here. Open super late and worth the walk up H from the Metro. Get the NY Supreme and add some sriracha for some added kick.

    This place gets dangerously hot inside. Grab a seat outside and enjoy a breezy summer evening.

    Best late night eat in DC. The lone here after the bars close is crazy long, but it is well worth the wait.

    Their pizza slices are really good and their prices are reasonable. Highly recommended. You should try the chicken ranch.

    I didn't think this would be any good because everyone uses "NY Pizza" as a marketing gimmick, but it's legit and delicious. Finally, edible pizza in DC.

    This is the only reasonable estimation of pizza in DC. If you're from the NY metro and frustrated with the pizza in this area, try this place.

    Grandma's square slice is delicious. Busy! Small dining area can get crowded. Order ahead for carryout.

    If you like lots of toppings without spending much more, combo #3 is the way to go.

    Unfortunately they only have Boylan's on fountain, but they do have bottles of Coca-Cola, and a lot of other unique bottles beverages from around the Country

    Pizza is good. Prices too. A bit of a language issue. One guy yelling what order is ready and there is only 6 people in the place.

    Pizza was very good. Many of the workers did not speak English or maybe we just couldn't understand them. The restaurant is very small and fills quickly.

    The food was great, but the staff did not understand their own specials on the menu. Seems like it's designed to confuse people into going a la carte.
