Radius in Mount Pleasant

We took a walk over to Radius pizzeria in Mount Pleasant yesterday and I've decided to make the official switch to Radius for my #1 pizza delivery. With their pies only a dollar or two more than the industrialized delivery brands, the toppings are fresh, local and even taste healthy. There was ZERO oil leaching out through the slices, a testament to their quality ingredients and preparation. For that extra dollar, its worth ordering something you don't have to feel guilty about. For a sit down pizzeria experience though, I might have to stick with Redrocks (or 2 Amy's) for now. Generally I give a thumbs down to a restaurant who adds a surcharge to substitutions or the similar since I view that as poor customer service- but Radius more than makes up for theirs with the cozy friendly atmosphere, great happy hour specials ($5 for a slice and a pint) and great food. PS, they have 1/2 price pasta specials and their fried calamari was quite good- no heavy, overpowering batter here!

About Me

My photo
Hi there, my name is Giacomo and I enjoy things delicious. Long story short, my parents moved from Italy to NJ where I grew up (and loved it) but found myself in Washington, DC fourteen years ago and haven’t yet found an excuse to leave. Food has always been a huge part of my day and life… from happy times, sad times, holidays, drunken escapades and all the rest in between, I’ve usually spent a good portion of that time putting something in my mouth. I guess I started this blog a little while ago to keep track of what I was cooking and places I’d eat-- simply because my friends were always asking “how do you make this” or “where do you get that” but surprisingly over time I guess real people started reading too. SO, take a look around and let me know what you think. You’ll see that the backbone of lots of my food is Italian but I manage to cover most bases. Thanks for stopping by. BUON APPETITO!
