A law in Naples, Italy, states that pizza that is called "Neopolitan" must meet certain criteria, and 2 Amys is among the parlors that meets the specifications. In this case, that's an assurance of great pizza – soft-grain flour, fresh yeast and fresh garlic cooked in a wood-burning oven only. The Norcia has salami, sweet peppers, garlic and mozzarella. The fantastic Vongole captures everything you love about linguine with clam sauce. The pizza is tomato-less but spread with salty bits of grana (hard Italian cheese) and sweet cockles (mollusks) in their shells, with capers, parsley and fiery peppers. And there's more than pizza. Try the deviled eggs with green sauce, suppli (fried rice balls stuffed with cheese) and polpettone (meatballs in marinara). Reservations not accepted. Beer and wine available. Serving lunch Tue–Sun, dinner nightly. Voted Best Pizza in the 2009 City Paper readers' and critics' polls. No. 30 on The Washingtonian's 100 Very Best Restaurants of 2009.

Restaurants in the nation's capital have been hosting the power elite for a couple of centuries, and boardinghouse-turned-saloon Old Ebbitt Grill has served most of them since the days of President Ulysses S. Grant.
