The vibe

Neighborhood institution in Logan Circle since 2014. Yelp reviewers describe it as 'the best Detroit pizza in DC.' DMV Happy Hours highlights the weeknight pizza deal as 'one of the more satisfying happy hour food offers on the corridor.' Praised in multiple DC press outlets for combining craft cocktails with Detroit-style pizza. The best pizza-plus-cocktail happy hour on the corridor, with a Monday wine bottle deal that's exceptional for a casual bar, and a late-night Friday–Saturday window that keeps the deal going past midnight.
