Emmy Squared Pizza: Navy Yard offers Washington DC's best Detroit-style pizza, alongside craveable bites and a full bar featuring specialty cocktails. Join us for Happy Hour Monday–Thursday from 4 PM–6 PM. The top choice for crafted pizza in Washington DC.

In 2014, Emily and Matt opened their first restaurant in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, with a goal to create quality pies. A trip to Detroit changed everything: they loved the local style, the crispy cheese edge, airy dough, and bold red sauce. They knew pairing this base with chef-inspired toppings would be special.

Back in Brooklyn, they began experimenting with organic flour, aged cheeses, fresh tomatoes, and combinations like truffle/mushrooms or pesto/Calabrian chilies, perfecting that crave-worthy cheese crust. In 2016, they unveiled their Detroit-style take with Emmy Squared Pizza. They remain committed to crafting the country's most thoughtful pizzas. We hope you enjoy them!

Detroit-Style Soul, Brooklyn Born.

Unfortunately, we did not have a good dining experience. We sent salads and drinks back. The pizza was ok, but not good enough to ever go back. Concrete floor and nothing to absorb sound, so it's very loud including chairs scratching loudly as people get up and down from their table. Tried one of the signature cocktails from the menu and had to send it back. We felt awful for continuing to complain, but we jad no choice. For context, I can't remember the last time we sent something back at a restaurant. It's just not who we are.

Excellent food. Excellent service. I do wish the table hadn't been so sticky. It needed a solid clean and seemed like it only gets a wet cloth wipe down. Food taste was exceptional, but $20-25 for a personal pizza is pretty rich

A good time. Great pizza, creative salad options. Good drink selection. Great location for pre-game dinner that’s not overwhelmed by ballpark crowd.

Great service from hostess stand through entire experience. Noise level was low, lighting was great and the temperature was ideal. Indoor and outdoor seating options. The cocktails were tasty and pizza was delicious. I would highly recommend.

We have eaten at several of the Emmy locations. Have always been a big fan. This time the food was underwhelming. I met my children there for dinner and was embarrassed at how meh it was. Not the same as before. I will not come back
