Menomale NoMa

Great experience on a Sunday afternoon! Got a last minute reservation (which wasn't needed). Food/drinks: gluten free, dairy free pizza! Yes please! Marinara DOM was simple but really delicious. Very thin pizza, which I don't always love, but the crust was flavorful as were the toppings. (I got to sample the margarita as well, which was very good but not cheese free.) Service: good! Too fast, actually, but he was understanding after we needed even more time to settle in. They made a mistake with the order, quickly rectified it, and gave us an extra pizza in the process! Easily accommodated a baby with a booster seat. Ambiance: Now this is the star. Very cool place. The vibe was nice, even in the middle of a Sunday afternoon. I love the tile work and the Vespa chilling by the bathroom area.I'm excited to try the Brookland location next!

If you are looking for good Neapolitan pizza, go here. The experience was great. The staff is friendly, the ambiance reminds of a classic modern Italian pizzeria, and the pizza is really good, you can tell ingredients are fresh and they know what they are doing.If you are seriously into pizza and familiar with traditional Italian pizza recipes, this place is worth a try, it's probably one of my top 3 pizza places in DC now. This particular location has a gas oven though, that being said, it's one of the best gas oven pizza I've tried in general, I've had gas oven pizzas in Italy that were not as good as this one. There was a little inconsistency in flavor, which can happen and it might even be a good sign of freshness --my wife's pizza was more flavorful than mine even though we ordered the same kind of pizza; and sauce acidity was a little too high over all. Dough was really good and I love that they put enough olive oil on top, step that a lot of pizzerias ofter neglect. Overall Menomale is a very good pizzeria, go, try it.

The food was spectacularwe had lasagna, Bucatini, calamari all were delicious The service was excellent and the restaurant was very clean and pretty inside thank you for a lovely evening

Very delicious Neapolitan-style pizza! In my opinion, there are only two places for pizza in NoMa - Andy's and Menomale. Both amazing, but different styles. If you are looking for something smaller and quicker, try Menomale. If you have a large party to feed, get Andy's.

I came here for lunch and to get some work done. The service was great and margarita pizza was good. I would return to try their pasta!

A decent Italian spot for lunch; we came because they had room for 17 of us, reserved a few weeks in advance.$462 total for dinner for 8 adults and 9 kids, including a few drinks and desserts.* Bruschette Bufala ($12) - 2 starsNothing special - the bread was a little stale, the tomato not the most ripe. The arugula did not stay on the bread. Like something you might whip up in your kitchen with average Safeway ingredients.* Stuffed Gnocchi ($21) - 3 starsThis is the most spherical gnocchi I've ever had. Not very soft.* Fusilli - 3 starsPretty average, pasta quite soft, sauce a little runny, but my kids enjoyed it.* Prosciutto Cotto (Ham) Pizza Napoletana ($17) - 3 starsI suppose the "ham" should have given it away, but just note the topping is not prosciutto, but really just slides of ham, maybe even cold cut ham. The crust had a crunch but the inside was not as soft and stretchy as many pizza napoletanas I've had out there. * Diavola (spicy) ($18) - 3 starsI didn't even realize this was supposed to have spicy salami, I didn't taste it at all. Again just ok, and the red pepper pieces were very small.* PIZZA IN TEGLIA ALLA ROMANA Salsiccia This was decent. A thicker crust than the napoletana style. The meat was not very evenly distributed, so some slices had a ton of meat and others barely any.* La Bomba ($8) - 3 starsPretty much what you'd expect for nutella-filled pizza crust! You do get a couple pieces.* Tiramisu ($9) - 3 starsFine, a little small (a single serving cake that comes in a plastic cup).

We decided to come to this location since we have visited the other location. I have to say, I felt more comfortable at the other location. The pizza (margarita with pepperoni) and the chocolate truffle dessert were delicious. But my lemon cake was dry. It almost felt like it needed some sort of sauce. The service was great. This location is way bigger than the other. And next door they have a little Italian grocery shop.

Very good pizza, highly recommended. I use to like Carrabbas Margarita Pizza but I have found a new favorite.

This place is across from my hotel and was a perfect spot to grab a bite after my flight in. The gluten free dough was very tasty and I enjoyed the burrata pizza. The flavor was amazing. The staff were incredibly attentive and the food came out quick.

Thanks for being a great restaurant with great leadership. I haven't had anything off your menu but I heard of your amazing stance on doing what is good. I saw pictures of your place and it looks great. Since the problem of others coming against your company, thank goodness... , you have been given free advertising. So much, I saw your restaurant on YouTube. So... my prayers are with you and your great American pizza restaurant as well as your crew. God bless.
