We are sad to announce the untimely passing of one our longest serving employees, Ronald Arce.

Ronald began working with us almost 40 years ago. He started out a pizza man and eventually became our head manager. But more than that, he was a member of our family and a great hardworking person. We send our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones in this difficult time.

Rest in Peace, brother. We miss you.

If you would like to pay respect to his life, the service details are in the picture.

53-Year-Old Bethesda Restaurant Just Won Best Pizza in the Entire DC Metro! 🏆🍕

Pines of Rome at 4918 Cordell Avenue has officially been crowned “Best Pizza” in the Washington Parent Picks 2025 awards, beating out every other restaurant across DC, Maryland, and Virginia - talk about local legend status!

🏆 The Achievement: ✅ Family-owned since 1972 (53 years of pizza perfection!) ✅ Beat hundreds of competitors across entire DC metro area ✅ Voted by real local families who know quality food ✅ Chef Marco brings authentic Southern Italian recipes ✅ Famous white pizza with fontina cheese customers call “legendary”

🍕 What Makes Them Special:
* Everything made fresh to order with old-school attention to detail
* Moved to current Cordell Avenue location in 2017
* Maintained classic Italian-American charm with wood walls and checkered tablecloths
* Customers have been loyal for literally 40+ years ordering same dishes
* Recipes from Chef Marco’s small peasant town in southern Italy

In a world of trendy pizza chains and Instagram-worthy spots, a true neighborhood institution proved that authenticity and consistency win every time. The Washington Parent Picks are particularly meaningful because they’re voted on by real families in the community, not food critics or industry insiders.
