The pizza is great, but so is everything else! On my trips to 2 Amys, I enjoy ordering the Supli a telefono, Polpettine al forno, and a glass of their fizzy red wine (I can’t remember what the name of it is).

The cheese and meat trays are excellent here, too—the proscuitto is to die for, especially paired with the mozzerella di bufala. The sheep ricotta and arugula just great, too.

There is seriously too much good food here, and I haven’t even started mentioning specific pizzas yet! Try it all, really. It’s worth it.

Sometimes, in DC, all of the wine lists and $20 appetizers can be dizzying. Where’s the elbow grease and good old American know-how to find a decent burger?

You can find it at the American City Diner, decorated with pictures of Marilyn and snappy comic lines. If you’re looking for a postmodern interpretation of American tradition—“those were the days”—come to the American City Diner. At 8pm every night, there’s a free movie!

Also, definitely order the milkshakes. Out of this world.
