Google Review Summary
Stracci Pizza, located in Alexandria's Potomac West neighborhood, has established itself as a standout destination for wood-fired, Roman-style pizza. Diners consistently praise the restaurant's house-made stracciatella cheese and expertly crafted focaccia-style crust, which achieves a perfect balance of crispiness and airy texture. Popular menu items include the Brooklyner pizza, meatballs with Calabrian chili, and signature Stracci pizza topped with their fresh-made cheese. The restaurant features both indoor and outdoor seating, with many guests highlighting the cozy atmosphere and quality of ingredients. While some patrons note longer wait times during peak hours and mention the QR code ordering system takes adjustment, the majority emphasize that the wait is worthwhile for the quality of food served. Beyond pizza, customers frequently recommend the caponata, gigante beans, and house-made cannoli for dessert.
Best Times to Visit
Arrive early for dinner (around 5 PM) to beat the rush and secure a table. Weeknights are generally quieter than weekends. Consider a late-afternoon visit on Saturdays to avoid peak crowds.
