DeSano Pizzeria Napoletana sticks to Neapolitan-style pizza in North Capitol, with crust quality as the thing people bring up first. The crowd leans heavily toward repeat customers, and word among regulars is that the pies pass muster with visiting Italians — a specific kind of approval for a style this exacting.
Service gets mentioned nearly as often as the food, which stands out for a pizzeria this casual. Between the consistency and the following it's built, DeSano reads as a place focused on one thing rather than a broad menu or a scene.
