Paisano's Pizza will open 11 new locations in Washington, D.C., Maryland and Northern Virginia and will open its first international locale in the United Arab Emirates. Locations in Georgetown, Washington, D.C.; Leesburg, Fredericksburg and Lake Ridge, Virginia; College Park, Columbia, Silver Spring, Laurel and Temple Hills, Maryland, and two locations in Dubai are slated to open throughout the year, according to a company press release. Since 1997, the restaurant has opened 27 locations throughout the Northern Virginia and Maryland areas, all of which are still operating.

Capital Restaurant Group CEO Fouad Qreitem opened the first Paisano's Pizza in Fairfax, Virginia, less than two decades ago.

"We're excited to continue to expand and provide customers with the same quality of food that we've served for nearly two decades," Qreitem said.

The 11 new locations will feature menu items ranging from the Chicken Parmesan Sub to the Mediterranean Veggie Wrap and the Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza to the Mozzarella Salad. In addition to Paisano's selection of Italian dinner entrees, gourmet pizzas and signature salad entrees, the new locations will also feature restaurant favorites, including Cheese Fries topped with bacon, mozzarella and cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing, and the Spinach Calzone filled with a blend of ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Those looking for lighter options can enjoy a variety of wraps, subs and clubs.
