Bizzeria Opening in Georgetown

Michael Rafidi, owner of Albi and La’ Shukran, along with Yellow cafe on Wisconsin Avenue is opening Bizzeria at 3246 Prospect Street this fall. It's the same address as upcoming Skillette, a cooking school by Kelly Singer. The pizza spot will have an entrance in the alleyway from Potomac Street.

Because there's no "p" in Arabic, the new Georgetown pizzeria is named Bizzeria. The wood-fired pizzas will be similar to those at Yellow with housemade cheese and 48-hour fermented sourdough crust developed by pastry chef Alicia Wang. The Levantine-inspired menu will also include raw dishes, mezze, charcuterie, and other seasonal specialties highlighting Mid-Atlantic farms. Wine Director William Simons, who’s behind the bottle lists at Albi and La’ Shukran, is curating an eclectic wine list focused on family-owned producers from a wide range of regions.
