For Pete’s Sake

Pete’s New Haven Style Apizza Opens

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that’s amore.

And when that pizza pie is cooked to doughy, bubbly perfection, that’s apizza.

Pete’s New Haven Style Apizza, to be exact. The small, easygoing joint is now serving up whole and by-the-slice pies.

What makes Apizzas so special? The thin crust: chewy on the inside, oven-scorched on the outside.

Top one off with options that include garlicky clams, fried eggplant, grilled artichokes, and sliced meatballs, and you’ll end up with a pie unlike any you’ve had before.

Pete’s also features classic panini and pastas, including egg- and gluten-free options. If you have room left over, treat yourself to a scoop of Dolcezza gelato. It should taste fun.

Because it’s clear: You’re in love.

Pete’s New Haven Style Apizza, 1400 Irving Street NW, at 14th Street (202-332-7383 or petesapizza.com).
