The first thing I noticed upon walking into Seventh Hill, a new pizzeria on Capitol Hill, was a gentleman tossing a ball of dough high into the air. It immediately reminded me of the pizzerias I grew up with on the Jersey Shore and instantly made me feel at home. Ever since I moved to Washington, I’ve been struggling to find a good pizza that has the perfect combination of a chewy crust and bubbling cheese. I’ve tasted pies from Tenleytown to downtown and they’ve all come up short. Then I came across Seventh Hill, a rarity for Capitol Hill.
