Pizzeria Paradiso is helping customers battle the heat with cold brews and chill events during the month of August. First, its Dupont Circle location will offer a special “Out of Market” beer each Wednesday of the month. Then, Pizzeria Paradiso locations will be featuring a special August Means Tomatoes specialty pizza.
For Women’s History Month, Pizzeria Paradiso celebrates and recognizes women with four limited-release pizzas. Through the Women in Pizza, Beer and Spirits 2020 celebration, specially-designed pizzas pay tribute to local women who have been pioneers in the local food and beverage scene. Pizzeria Paradiso collaborated with these entrepreneurs to create special pizzas, including a Spring Pea-Za by Leah Cheston, Right Proper owner and director of operations. The pizza chain created beer and cocktail pairing recommendations for these pies to be enjoyed all month long.
Pizzeria Paradiso is launching a fundraiser to benefit efforts to encourage women to serve in leadership positions as elected officials. This announced celebration is in tribute to International Women’s Day 2019. A 100-percent contribution of its United States of Pizza menu sales will go toward the She Should Run organization on Friday, March 8. On this day, the Pizzeria Paradiso US of Pizza special is a creative pie, consisting of Virginia Country Ham, cheddar cheese, cherry tomatoes, creamed corn, black eyed peas, collard greens and onions.
Pizzeria Paradiso will open its fifth location in the Washington, D.C. neighborhood of Spring Valley Monday, December 3. The new restaurant, opening at 11 a.m., will follow in the chain’s storied tradition of Neapolitan-style pizza and is Ruth Gresser’s latest pizza venue. Beverage Director Drew McCormick brings a beer program that will be front and center at the new Spring Valley Pizzeria Paradiso, with 14 rotating taps and a sizable selection of bottled beers. The 179-unit restaurant will boast a beer program that includes two options from six of D.C.’s breweries, and also a cider offering.
