Lots of good mentions here.
Proletariat, as mentioned, is awesome. Great pizza, laid-back vibe, good beer...decent parking...go when it's still light outside
No joke, on the pizza and when to go. A guy was shot in the head trying to break up a fight outside a bar on that block a couple of weeks ago.
I like Vince's for basic, but pricey-for-what-it-is pizza. Via Marina is good. In Georgetown there is Via Tribunali. Tutta Bella has multiple locations and is decent. Pagliacci is good.
But put a pizza stone on top rack, put oven as high as it will go, preheat stone for 30-40 minutes, Trader Joe's dough, let it get to room temp and stretch or roll it thin, keep toppings simple (don't weigh it down) and it cooks in just a few minutes. Will be better than all of these.
I miss neopolitan and NY style pizza back east.
