I recently tried Slice of Rockville and Big Buns (Arlington).
Slice of Rockville is a pizzaria that actually makes NY style pizza (good sauce, thin crunchy crust). I had the verde (sauteed spinach, roasted tomatoes, roasted garlic, mozzarella and parmesan cheese). I even liked their tomato sauce. Not a big deal but the basil should have been mixed in better or applied later, since it got dried out in the oven, turning black and leathery.
They make their own sauce and salad dressings. They are very busy later in the week, a
nd deliver, so expect a wait for delivery on Thursdays and Fridays. On a Thursday, the pizza arrives late. They seem to have about a 2 mile delivery range.
Big Buns is a burger place in Ballston that give you options for type of meat (beef, mahi mahi, chicken, or mushrooms), toppings, and sauces. The beef burger was very good, and the fries were lighty seasoned and actually CRISPY. I have no complaints on this one. They didn’t ask how I wanted the burger so I figured it would be well done fast food style…but it was medium well, which is fine. The staff seemed fun and happy to be there…odd. 🙂
