You can order online ahead of time or order in person when you arrive. If you’re unable to sign you can point out your order on the menu or write/type it on paper or your phone.

Mozzeria opened in DC on Friday, September 4th. Customers are encouraged to place orders with their phones but can also try ASL if they’re comfortable doing so.
