2Amys

It’s cacophonous, packed with kids and usually involves a wait, but for pizza aficionados, the pies at 2Amys are worth it. The restaurant, located in Cleveland Park, has received D.O.C. accreditation for its authentic Neapolitan pizza, which is made in a wood-burning oven with plenty of mozzarella di bufala, Italian plum tomatoes and fresh basil or oregano. Adventurous diners may gravitate to the vongole pie (with garlic, capers, cockles, grana and hot pepper) or the stuffed pizza (with ricotta, grana, salami and prosciutto). There are also small bites, such as polpettine al forno (meatballs) and bruschetta. This is a good lunch option if you are visiting the National Cathedral.
