I envy your ability to not be bothered, Toby. Still, for those of us who have lived through the kind of spiritual struggles that make patronizing Moroni and Brothers more trouble than it’s worth, we’ll just keep looking for a reasonably priced pie in a setting that’s flashback free. Vace in Cleveland Park, perhaps?

I am absolutely sure that the son of the owner Moroni was named for the Mormon angel Moroni. And I don’t care. Some Mormon doctrine is really out there, strange, etc. But this is America. We can patronize an establishment or not. I choose not to let someon

Err.. I will ask about those trumpets. If that’s supposed to be some sort of a subliminal message or subordination.. then I’d be astonished. If they are religious, sad, but does not make their pizza any worse. And Michael W, I think the 2Amys connection is with Red Rocks, not Moroni & Bros.

All this “oh my god it is OVERPRICED” business I find silly. Some people don’t get why anyone would buy a $40,000 car rather than a $20,000 car. Neither do I, but I don’t complain about it. I think the pizza is great – certainly the best thing one can get delivered in Petrowth, and I’m happy to pay what they’re asking for it. And they’ve never tried to convert me or anything, but maybe that’s just their strategy. Bring them in with the good pizza…

that is so weird about the latter day saints connection. i would never have realized that. but i think joseph may be right. i still like their pizza. i guess i’ve been in too many catholic restaurants that aren’t afraid to show it (esp. pizza joints) to really change.

Um, can I agree here on this board that the pizza is unbelievably overpriced? They play up the 2AMYS connection, but the pizza does not meet expectations. I would have expected 18″ pizzas for the price we paid for 12″ pizzas. Should have been. Never going back again. Would be a very happy customer if we got a 2AMYS quality dinner for what we paid.

Who it’s actually named after isn’t really the point. Neither is the reasoning behind their choice to include angel Moroni like trumpets in the logo on their sign. The unfortunate fact is that these coincidental choices happen to bring up lots of bad feelings for anyone who’s experienced the heartbreak of banishment from an intolerant institution. Most importantly though, the pizza I had there was lacking in flavor, boring of texture, and extremely overpriced.

INMHIIYNTYAH, its where the address on the poster says it is.. I.e. 4811 Georgia Ave. HIGHLY recommended, best consumed on site of course.
