" I'm always on the lookout for good Italian food, and All-Purpose did not let me down! Their Buona pizza was deliciously made with quality ingredients. The honey drizzled on top added a perfect touch. They also have one of the best Caesar salads I've ever tasted - it's a must-try! Service was friendly and attentive, really enhancing our dining experience. The restaurant has a warm and inviting vibe, making it perfect for both families and groups. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a gem! I’ve come here for dinner multiple times and each experience is fantastic. The garlic knots are a must-try! Pizza is always cooked to perfection with fresh ingredients. My friends and I always have a good laugh there as the staff is friendly and the vibes are just right. If you’re in DC and love pizza, this is a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at All-Purpose was pretty good, but not mind-blowing. We ordered a couple of basic pizzas expecting something unique and flavorful, but they fell a bit flat in my opinion. The service was lovely, and the ambiance was nice and casual, but I just had higher expectations from what I heard. I'd be open to returning though to try some other menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" The brunch menu at All-Purpose is exceptional! I had one of the baked egg dishes and it was delightful, served with seasoned focaccia that paired perfectly. The staff were super attentive and ensured our glasses were never empty. Overall a great spot for brunch, however, it can get crowded, so make sure to make a reservation. Can't wait to come back and look to try their dinner menu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" All-Purpose is a cute little spot with some amazing pizza. Their unique takes on traditional pizzas make for an interesting twist, though some classic flavors are simply outstanding on their own. The staff was helpful in suggesting what to order. Overall, I'd consider it a nice place to grab a bite with friends, if you're in the mood for pizza! " (*Curated Review*)

" All-Purpose offers a wonderful mix of pizzas and Italian dishes. I visited last Saturday and we ended up trying multiple items from their menu. The arancini were wonderfully crispy outside and creamy inside. Later, we moved onto the pizzas; the pizzas had fresh toppings, making each bite a delight. The ambiance is casual yet lively, perfect for both families and a night out with friends. Although a little pricey, every dish was well worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited All-Purpose during my last trip to DC and was not disappointed! The pizzas were out of this world! We shared the Sedgwick pizza that had a rich four-cheese flavor with a hint of truffle honey that made it unique. The ambiance of the restaurant combined with top-notch service made it all the more enjoyable. My only wish is that the portion sizes were a bit larger since we were quite hungry after our meal, but overall a fantastic experience. Will definitely come back for another visit!
