NAKED PIZZA CAN'T COVER UP ANY LONGER: THEY'RE CLOSED, SPACE FOR LEASE IN BETHESDA (PHOTOS)

The odd, indefinite closure of Naked Pizza on Del Ray Avenue in Bethesda got a lot of people wondering what the story was. Certainly, the chain was not saying, only redirecting customers to other area locations. But finally, the mystery is solved.

The Naked Truth: Rather than the promised "improvements," the restaurant is actually closed, and the space is up for lease.

Last evening, I spotted a crumpled sign on the floor inside which appeared to say "For Lease." The phone number led to confirmation that the Naked Pizza space is indeed for lease. I also found a Loopnet listing for the space, which describes it as a "former pizza delivery location," suggesting we've seen the last of Naked Pizza at this particular address. The chain has several Northern Virginia locations that are still open.
