Food scene

The glow-up in this old Chipotle location in the heart of Cleveland Park includes Neapolitan pizzas with uniformly thin crusts that don’t fold under the weight of farm-fresh ingredients like fennel or honeynut squash. Sticky-sweet “shallot goo” replaces tomato as a base sauce on some pies, like a fig and gorgonzola number with soppressata and arugula.
