Mexican isn't much of a secret since they've both been around forever, but Lauriol (Dupont/Adams Morgan area; kinda douchy)

I haven't found a good pizza joint, and I've lived here for years.

I'm going to have to disagree strongly withe the Lauriol recommendation. Supremely douchy and loud environment, mediocre boring bland tex/mex style food that's passable at best, and the worst margarita I've ever had. And the 'rita was ~$15 for a nasty sour mix concoction with hardly any tequila in it :barf:.

As for pizza it took me a while but Pete's Apizza is pretty good and it's the best I've had in the area.

It's a bit of a hike from downtown DC, but my favorite restaurant in the area is Cuba De Ayer in Burtonsville MD. Great mojitos too.

I live across the street from the Whole Foods, and coming from a rural shithole it's still mindblowing to me. Except for the meat, the prices are about on par with Safeway too, which is nice. One thing I can't find though is an italian market. Does anyone know of any in the area, or am I out of luck unless I head east?

I like Vace in Cleveland park.

It's a fairly small place and they can be a bit surly, but they have good stuff at fair prices. Strangely they put the sauce on top of the cheese with their pizza.

I know it's a bit of a ways outside DC, but does anyone know of anything worth eating in the Columbia area? I'm going to be stopping over there soon and I'm hoping I won't have to drive too far for decent food, but it looks kinda chain-heavy.

My favorite restaurant in the area is Cuba De Ayer (http://www.cubadeayerrestaurant.net/) in Burtonsville on 198.
