An iconic Chicago restaurant opens its doors in DC

A new slice of Chicago has arrived in the D.C. area.

, an iconic pizzeria that’s been serving the Windy City’s famous deep-dish pizzas for a half century, opens Tuesday at 14th and F streets NW.

General manager Chieyen Meachem said the location near the White House was selected with purpose.

鈥淲hy not bring a part of Chicago to the nation鈥檚 capital? It鈥檚 only the next logical step, and then steps away from the White House, being able to have that taste of Chicago right here,鈥 Meachem said.

骋颈辞谤诲补苍辞鈥檚 pies are a mouthful. The deep-dish pizzas can take 35 to 40 minutes to bake.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a layer of dough then we have all the cheese, ingredients then another layer of dough on top finish it off with our famous tomato sauce on top,鈥 said Nihav Cehic, the senior director of new restaurant openings for 骋颈辞谤诲补苍辞鈥檚.

According to the company, the two-story, 7,400-square-foot restaurant can seat more than 180 guests in its dining room, bar, seasonal patio and private dining area named The Lincoln Room.

It鈥檚 also expected to create 100 jobs.

As part of the opening celebration and in honor of 250 years of America, 骋颈辞谤诲补苍辞鈥檚 is offering a limited-time 鈥250 Pizza鈥 only in D.C., with proceeds benefiting HonorFlight.org, a nonprofit organization dedicated to U.S. war veterans.
