Pizza Paradiso near Dupont Circle (and now elsewhere -- Georgetown?) is about as close as you will find (except at our house 8;) ).

As an alternative, you can easily buy dough at places like the Italian Market off Spout Run and make your own.

Among the chains, Bertucci's is probably closest, since Faccia Luna's crust has gotten heavier over the years.
