The margarita pizza was easily the worst I’ve ever had. I know that people tend to exaggerate nowadays, but it was truly horrid and will likely be the subject of my nightmares for weeks - nay - months to come. This pizza nearly broke my heart after I was so hungry, decided to splurge on “high end” pizza, and opened the box to to find this wet, soggy, cheese-lacking sauce rag staring back at me. I highly recommend spending your money at Domino's instead to get better quality pizza at half the price. Reviews must be fake because this place being over 4 stars is absurd.

We asked for a table for 17, college kids and chaperones and they had it all set up when we got there, food was reasonable and delicious, and the waitress was great, even did separate checks for everyone since they were all on individual budgets. Couldn't have been better!

Pretty good italian pizza - nothing special, but good. I didn't know that this was a chain (Italy, US, Canada, Turkey, and lots of Latin American countries) until I got there. Ambience is nothing special but it's fine.

We LOVE the pizza at this restaurant. We live in Silver Spring but will drive all the way to Arlington for them. My husband comes here to get close-to-home pizza with the cheese he loves so much from Brazil. This time, I got the rolled bacon stuffed with gorgonzola cheese pizza. Whoa!! The strawberry caipiroskas are fabulous, too. It's really hard to find GOOD and authentic Brazilian caipirinhas (made with cachaca) and caipiroskas (made with vodka). I was in heaven with these. I wish they made dessert pizzas, like in Brazil. I've ordered dessert a couple of times there, and both times was disappointed with the weird, metallic flavor of the chocolate sauce. I also didn't like the TV in the main dining area playing a basketball game.

Stranded in Washington during this past snowstorm (PAX) at a hotel with no food service: cab service was non-existent; had to walk to the restaurant; first it was the only place open for blocks: crowded great atmosphere: stayed most of the evening; best selection of pizza anywhere: great service and it made a gloomy day bright!
