Gentleman Jim's

[pras]

Gentleman Jim's has been around as Gentleman Jim's since 1970 as Gentleman Jim's and from the 1940's in DC as the Cavalier (according to their website).  They are known for their square "Maryland Style Pizza" (like Ledo's).  Unlike Ledo's, their pies are actually square and not rectangles.  The crust is a bit flaky and the sauce is sweet.  Their "secret" is Swiss cheese (supposedly you can get mozzarella or provolone by request).  Last night we tried it for the first time and we were skeptical, but it was really good (if not different).  All three of us really enjoyed it and only were able to eat half the pie.

Pizza can be decisive and New York pizza this is not, but it was still enjoyable by all in the family, with everyone agreeing that we would add this to our rotation.

I had many a pizza at "GJ's" when growing up when they were at the Twinbrook Shopping Center.  It has been many years since I've been to the new location.  Thanks for the reminder to head up and have me some of this awesome pizza to revive some memories!
