This year we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Armand’s, the local chain that captured the hearts, and appetites, of pizza lovers across the DC Metro area. Founded in 1975, Armand’s began as a humble pizzeria on Veazey Street and Wisconsin Avenue NW near Tenley Circle in Washington, D.C., and quickly blossomed into a beloved institution.
