    Their food has a lot of flavor and is tasty and fresh. Plus the customer service is great!!

    NASTY wing dings dinner
    Silvana B.

    STAY AWAY!!! The food at Backwoods is an absolute joke. I ordered a wing dings dinner and even though I was STARVING when I received the order, I could barely eat it because of how bad the food was!!! The fries were SO SOGGY & UNDERCOOKED. Absolutely no salt too. I picked up the fry and it just looked so sad. As for the wings, they were FATTY and tasted OLD. I also got a small salad with the order and the cucumbers had an extremely ODD taste. Safe to say, I will NEVER be ordering from Backwoods again and I advise you do the same. Save yourself the stress and order from one of the many other local pizza shops!

    Veggie Combo Pizza

    Really nice customer service. I had the veggie combo pizza. I recommend going here if your looking for a late night bite.

    First of all let me say my food was awesome And I only have one problem with this restaurant When I ordered a hamburger sub there was a number of toppings I could put on my sub I only chose one topping that cost money all of the other ones that I chose were listed has free (Or so I thought) after getting my food and eating later that day I received a text message saying the restaurant requested I pay for a topping they had listed for free granted it wasn't a lot of money it wasn't even a dollar so I paid for it but still if you have something listed has free it should be free So basically it was my first time ordering from there and it will be my last I don't like hidden charges

    Cheese Pizza

    I only gave a star because I had to and they don't even deserve that! This was my first experience ordering from here and I'll never go back! My large cheese pizza was burnt to the point that I thought it had BBQ sauce on it! My bf and I each tried a slice to see if it was that bad. IT WAS! When I asked for another pizza I was told that I picked it up late so they couldn't do anything about it. Which makes absolutely NO SENSE. That just confirmed that they did indeed burn my pizza. NEVER AGAIN. Horrible customer service! Update because I couldn't respond to the owner: According to my receipts I did NOT arrive two hours later. I arrived within an hour of placing my order at 6:16pm. My receipt said the pizza would be ready between 6:40-6:50pm. I picked up the pizza shortly after. I spoke to Grubhub before 8:00p. Where exactly did two hours pass in between that? There's a huge difference in a pizza being a bit cold after waiting about 10 minutes to be picked up (which good customer service means the people working would've kept it warm) versus a pizza being completely burnt. Last night the owner told the Grubhub rep that the pizza wouldn't be replaced because I showed up late. Even the rep said that doesn't make any sense as to why the pizza was burnt.

    Got the Italiana. It had Prociutto, stracciatella, sun dried tomatoes, arugula, and pistacio cream…read more The sweet and creaminess from the pistachio cream, the saltiness from the prosciutto, and the arugula and sundried tomatoes helped by preventing it from being too heavy. I thought everything was quite balanced. The sandwich was about $21. Which I thought was reasonable because it was big enough to feed two people. There werent much of a wait when I was there, so service was quick. You order at the counter and they make your sandwich. Just tell them what you want and Bada Bing, Bada boom: you got your sandwich in a couple of minutes. They have seating inside and out. It was a nice day so I chose to sit outside. Nothing like enjoying a nice sandwich and watching all the sketchy weirdos walking around.

It is a good sandwich. It's a pretty great sandwich, actually. I like the Boss, but there are many great options. There are just two things to keep in mind: 1) it's relatively expensive (though doable) 2) the sandwiches are quite rich and salty, often relying on a flavorful cream element (truffle cream, pistachio cream, etc.) As a result, I probably wouldn't go every day or even every week. But a once-a-month cadence or so would be great. Try it!

    To start, the sandwiches are a little pricey, but they are very tasty. I have successfully split…read morethem with a friend, and that makes the value more reasonable. But I'm actually writing about the company's website and phone recording. Once, on a prior holiday, and today due to a winter storm, I wasn't sure if the restaurant was open. In both cases (where the restaurant turned out to be closed), the website (appropriately) didn't allow online orders, and (more importantly) THE OUTGOING PHONE RECORDING WAS UPDATED WITH CURRENT INFORMATION. In an era where businesses barely have phone numbers to call, or employees who answer with something other than 'hello', is rare (and by the way, this is the fault of management if they don't properly train their staff). THANK YOU FOR HAVING YOUR SHIT TOGETHER IN COMMUNICATING YOUR HOURS TO THE PUBLIC. I, for one, appreciate it.

    Sam LaGrassa's is a Boston legend that's lost its way…read more As a local, I used to defend Sam LaGrassa's to anyone who called it a tourist gimmick. It was the gold standard for a real sandwich in the city. Sadly, the magic has faded. Between the soaring prices and the shrinking portions, the value just isn't there anymore. You can taste the "corner-cutting"--the flavors aren't as bold as they used to be, and the sandwiches feel noticeably smaller even though the cost has increased exponentially - I mean $30 for a sammy?! It should have gold in it! Even then, I'd keep coming once in awhile if the service was worth it. but honestly - the staff seems burnt out even bright early in the morning. It's hard to justify the premium price for a shadow of what this place used to be.

    The only thing that makes this location a five star is indeed the sandwich itself…read more The service was not great. We almost felt that we were inconveniencing the workers and the wait time is absurd for in person orders. But I have to give credit when it's due, this was by far one of my favorite sandwiches although they are pricey, you can easily feed a party of four with a nice bag of chips on the side. We were blessed with being able to try the table sandwich. The focaccia was fresh along with the mozzarella and arugula. Since we made an online order which quoted us 45 minutes, our sandwich was ready in 20 so unfortunately, the chicken cutlet was not as fresh as we would've liked. Sidenote, the first day we attempted to order in person they quoted us an hour, so we decided to place an order of the following day. Highly recommend placing the order and staying local to be safe. Despite all the sandwiches, well worth the weight, just don't have high expectations for service We love the ambience of a little Italian market, and it was very well kept

While you can order there, it does seem like it takes some time for the sandwiches to be made. There is a sign saying that for the weekends to expect up to an hour wait for your sandwich. That being said, I ordered ahead online and my sandwich was ready when I got there. (This was a Thursday afternoon). I got the vodka chicken Parm after seeing it online and it definitely lives up to the hype. And yes, it is ~$30. The sandwich is huge. It has huge cutlets in it which are very filling, and perfectly made. It ended up being enough for two people, so find a person to share it with! The vodka sauce in the sandwich was sooooo good, definitely one of the best I've found in boston. They also provide you with a whole container of sauce to dip your sandwich into (highly recommend doing that). What lost the star is that I felt there wasn't enough basil. For that huge sandwich, there was actually very few bites with basil. I wish there was more of it, and I also wish there was some other green in there like arugula. Other than that, it's a great sandwich. I'd definitely get this again!

I've eaten here before (it's a small area, but does have a lot of seating) but normally I get it as take out. The cafe itself is super casual, it's the perfect place to pop into during lunch or after a walk. My food is always ready on time which is nice, and when I've eaten there I'm usually able to find a seat. The spinach tortellini with the pesto cream sauce is my absolute favorite- it's a HUGE portion and so delicious. It usually lasts me at least 2 meals. The bread they include is also great! I like to dip it in the sauce. The past time I got Dino's I accidentally ordered spinach ravioli instead of tortellini...that was my bad. HOWEVER I think I might have found my new favorite? The raviolis are huge and so fat. I'm talking like 1/2 inch - 3/4 inch thick. There is so much stuffing and the spinach ricotta mix tastes so fresh and delicious...it's a must try. I've also gotten the eggplant parm before, and the fettuccini Alfredo. Both were also delicious. I've never had any of the sandwiches, but if they are anything like their pastas then I'm sure they are great! The bang for your buck here is also great which is nice. Highly recommend! Dinos is awesome! And the staff is very kind too (Note that the pic is taken from a train, I like to treat myself to Dino's before catching the Amtrak)

    Cannot recall the last time I saw something for the single digits on the menu anywhere in Boston,…read moremuch less in the north end! Also, and most importantly, the food was great. Baked gnocchi is a must-have. The fresh basil on top of everything was a nice flavorful touch. Generous cheese, generous portions, and quick and personable service.

When we walked up around 7:30 pm, the outdoor seating on this beautiful day was already full. Good sign to start! Since it was a bit windy, we asked for an indoor table and were brought in immediately, no wait. To quench my thirst, I opted for a Storrow Jam libation- a blueberry, vodka, sparkling water, lemon flavored drink. Absolutely refreshing and well presented! My pal ordered their spin on a Cuban and swapped out the chips for the dill pasta side. He loved it so much that it was gone on minutes. Being a fan of ground meats, I opted for the Hajj, a ground lamb, tzatziki, Mediterranean style sandwich. It was well flavored and large, and came with a side salad. I shared the sandwich with my friend, but agreed that his crispy Cuban was a bit tastier. We ended the evening with a bread pudding topped with vanilla ice cream to share. Massive portions! We both enjoyed to our hearts' delight, and the one dessert could have easily been shared with a third person. Our wait staff was so pleasant- friendly and warm from the start. They really made this experience shine! This is quite a pricy spot in the heart of Boston, so be prepared to pay a pretty penny for sandwiches.
