&Pizza has closed "for now" at 7614 Old Georgetown Road in The Metropolitan in Bethesda. The "for now" caveat was added by the local chain in a message to customers without explanation. One could be that a number of &pizza locations have been sold to at least one franchisee, as the company attempts to move from direct ownership to a franchise model. They may want to give that franchisee, or another, the option to reopen this store before dismantling it. &pizza opened here over 11 years ago, in May of 2014. That's a good run in Bethesda by any measure.

I never tried them because they seemed contrived, offering a goofy-looking rectangular pie. [Hooray! A post from someone who knows absolutely nothing about the subject, but who nonetheless thinks his opinion matters.] That caveat notwithstanding, it seemed the place almost always had cars double-parked outside as people picked up orders. Their pies may have been silly looking, but it sure appeared a lot of people found that unorthodox shape no less tasty.
More elliptical than rectangular. In Rome, the pinsa is a similar shape. If you haven't tried pinsa, you're missing out. Via Roma in DC has it.
Went there frequently until I discovered Gusto which had better ingredients, friendlier employees, no booming "music", cleaner roomier restrooms AND plenty of room to sit & eat both inside & outside until they unfortunately closed.
