Reviews
The service was a major highlight of my visit. The staff was consistently friendly and attentive, ensuring the meal flowed smoothly without ever being overbearing. I stopped in for brunch and decided to try one of their pizzas. While the pizza was certainly good and satisfying, it didn’t quite reach “amazing” territory for me. It is a solid, dependable option, though perhaps not the absolute best I’ve ever had.
Overall, the combination of the multi-level layout and the excellent service makes this a high quality dining experience. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their brunch menu in the future.
For mains we ordered the slider trio (its technically an appetizer) and the Fire & Smoke pizza. The pizza didn’t look that appetizing but the flavor was packed! It was punchy and had some heat.
Our server was JD.. if you are ever dine here please request him..it was my husband’s birthday weekend and this man treated us like royalty!
To say he went over and beyond would be an understatement..JD you made our birthday/snowday a Joy..your generosity meant the world to Us. Keep spreading that Sir your graced for it.. ohh..lol th vibe is nice,very clean and the food was great! That steak pizza omg!!
I also don’t remember the cocktail is was custom for the bday boy it was delicious!
The food was exactly what you want from an upscale‑casual spot. I ordered the crispy chicken burger, which was crunchy and satisfying, and everyone at the table found something they liked on the menu.
What really made the night, though, was the service. My best friend had been covering my meals the entire week (they wouldn’t let me pay), and I wanted to return the favor by secretly paying for their food and drinks.
I pulled our server aside and explained the situation, and they didn’t miss a beat. When the check came, the server ran my friend’s bill on my card, and helped keep the surprise completely under wraps. And my server did so with class and humor.
That small act of going along with my plan meant a lot. I got more than food; I got experience. For that alone, I’d absolutely recommend Matchbox Pentagon City for any special gathering or group dinner. And I’m leaving more than 20 percent tip next time.
Matchbox Pizza in Pentagon City is a solid go-to spot. It’s not trying to be over the top, but it’s consistently above average. The pizza is good, the drinks are good, and the atmosphere makes it an easy place to relax for a bit. It’s perfect if you’re out shopping, just finished work, or looking for a quick drink and a bite to eat. Nothing fancy, just a reliably good experience, which is exactly what you want sometimes.
I brought my two sons in for some pizza, we ordered an Aldo’s pizza for them to split and went half cheese half pepperoni. I had a $32 “steak and egg” which ended up being 5 thin slices of steak on eggs.
The waitress was dismissive. The pizza came with no plates. It took her 20+ minutes to get them. All three of us ran out of water, another 10 minute wait. Short one word answers and a cold attitude from the waitress. We kindly asked for light cheese on the pizza and she said OK. Didn’t write it down and the pizza certainly wasn’t light on the cheese.
The food tasted OK, but for the price I would expect some better service.
This restaurant benefits from its location and will always have patrons no matter shoddy the service is. The payment kiosk defaults at a 20-22% tip, which I think is fine, but in this case a bit presumptive, considering the waitress didn’t do her job.
P.S I would go on the earlier side because this place does fill up fast.
