    Their use of authentic ingredients is evident. And they have a great midday. Price of three mini pizzas for $21. Will definitely return.

    Mangiare una pizza oltreoceano non è sempre facile per un italiano. La pizza è di buona qualità con ingredienti che arrivano dall’Italia. Il Manager è di origine Italiana ed è stato molto ospitale

    In D.C. there is plenty of average pizza, and some above average pizza. But exceptional pizza is tough to find. Pupatella Neapolitan Pizza is exceptional. The service was fun. They must use only certain ingredients, only a specific type of oven and dough to keep their Neapolitan rating issued by the Italian government. If you want a better pizza you can go to NYC or Italy, but in DC, Pupatella Neapolitan Pizza is a good as it gets. First, the flame fired dough with burnt brown and black bits on an actual Italian pizza dough. Second, the list of ingredients are approved by the Italian government -- no pineapple, no ketchup and no ranch and buffalo wing sauce -- just cheese and three ingredients. I had cheese, sausage, garlic and mushrooms on mine -- it was SO GOOD. The mushrooms were so great, not canned, not thin, but thick and sauteed and tasty!
