This June, gourmet pizza franchise Paisano’s Pizza will open the first of nine new locations in Washington, D.C. Franchise partners Antoine Chahine, Ron Trowbridge and Daniel Bechara will open the inaugural Paisano’s Pizza D.C. location in Georgetown at 1815 Wisconsin Ave NW. Eight more locations are slated to open in the next 36 months and will feature the delicious pizza, sandwiches, salads, appetizers, and more that make up the signature Paisano’s taste.

Aimed to meet everyone’s individual tastes, the nine new D.C. locations will feature classic menu items ranging from the Chicken Parmesan Sub to the Mediterranean Veggie Wrap and the Steak & Cheese Sub to the Greek Chicken Salad. In addition to Paisano’s extensive selection of Italian dinner entrees, gourmet pizzas, and signature salad entrees, the new locations will also feature restaurant favorites like their award winning Wings and the Spinach Calzone filled with a blend of ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Those looking for lighter options can enjoy a variety of wraps, subs, and clubs.

Since launching in 1998, Paisano’s Pizza, the premier pizza delivery brand in the Washington metropolitan area, has expanded to 30 locations throughout Northern Virginia and Maryland and abroad, with locations in Dubai. Whether customers choose to dine in, carryout, or have their order delivered, patrons can expect friendly and reliable service as well as the freshest and finest ingredients at every location.

"We're excited to continue to expand and provide customers with the same quality of food that we've served for nearly two decades," says Capital Restaurant Group CEO Fouad Qreitem, who opened the first Paisano’s Pizza in Fairfax, Virginia, nearly 20 years ago.
