We, the Pizza
Chef Spike Mendelsohn's second DC restaurant is as pleasing as his first. When I first heard he was creating a pizza place, I couldn't wait to try it. DC doesn't have a ton of pizza places and certainly not something super notable. It's time for us to have a signature pizza place.
Spike does not disappoint with We, the Pizza. I had a slice of the spinach and artichoke...pure heaven. Not too much cheese and meaty artichoke hearts were dotted across my slice. To my surprise and delight, the spinach was pureed and mixed in with the cheese. This allowed me to enjoy the spinach even more instead of eating a wilted spinach leaf every other bite. The crust was soft, but not doughy and had an excellent crunch, but not like a cracker. No deep dish, no thin crust, no frills or gimmicks...just good pizza.
In addition to yummy pizza, We, the Pizza makes their own soda. I only had a sip of my Dad's Love You Long Time Lemon Lime but there was a perfect amount of fizz and the drink packed the perfect lemon-lime taste that makes you slightly pucker.
I'd love to try some of We, the Pizza's subs and pastas, but that slice of pizza really hit the spot on a windy DC morning. We are lucky to have you in DC, Spike!
