Affordable, flavorful, casual atmosphere, counter service. Frank Sinatra on walls was a nice touch.

Delicious! We got one sausage and ricotta and it took about 12 minutes to have our - fed an adult family of 5. Would go back!! Very small inside not many chairs so keep in mind. Everyone was nice and helpful! read more

There aren't a lot of inexpensive places to grab a quick Italian bite to eat in the North End. In fact, most of the venues in the North End are either moderate or expensive. So where should you go if you are on a budget, have kids or don't have a lot of time... ERNESTO'S!!!!! It's not an awesome pizza, but it's a decent thin crust pizza and way better than the popular Costco cheese pizza, Dominos etc, etc, and some of the $15-20 pizzas down the street in the North End. The only downside is that it's a reheated pizza so the crust is a little soggy, but not too bad. The value is off-the-hook. Two slices of cheese pizza (1/4 pizza) for $4.50? Heck yeah, I'd eat here all the time. Two slices would fill me up for the whole day. ha ha Check it out.

Ernesto's - Cheese pizza $4.50 - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

So good. Massive slices. Nice area. A Must try. Cheap too. The line is usually long but it's so worth it.

Amazing grab and go pizza slices, best deal in the North end for a family. They have tables

4.8-5.0 food. Service was awesome, gem of a location. Nice little place for giant slices. Solid choice

Great marketing to get us looking for this pizza place. The slice was huge and the price is decent. I got the pepperoni and mushrooms slice and there was nothing "wow" about it. The Sicilian slice looks tasty though. Maybe I'll try that next time. The service was good and ambiance is a no frills, casual setting, welcoming all. read more

Excellent pizza!!! We got into Boston late and wanted to just relax at our hotel, so we opted to have drinks in our lobby and order a pizza. This came up with all the right things -- New York style, in the Italian neighborhood and great reviews. They don't deliver themselves, but we were able to place an order through Uber Eats. The pizza came looking delicious, smelled delicious and ultimately was fantastic. There wasn't a bit left and we all wished we had ordered a second.. it was THAT GOOD. If you are looking for excellent NY style pizza in Boston, this is the place! read more

We stopped in after seeing so many ppl with pizza boxes while waiting for Neptune oyster the day before. The slices were big and they had lots of cool toppings. We decided to try the shrimp scampi slice and it did not disappoint! Would definitely come back! read more

My jaw dropped as soon as I took the first bite. Words cannot express the perfection of each and every slice of pizza. The dough was light and crispy and the combination of toppings was impeccable. Honestly one of the best pizzas I have ever tried. Cannot recommend this enough. Btw I ordered the Caprese pizza (10/10). read more

Definitely one of the best spots in north end Boston ! Perfect thin slices hot and fresh ! There is also area to sit inside and it is pretty clean . Services was quick even though only a Tuesday afternoon . Will be back when I visit Boston again . Also, slices are huge . Price point is good read more

Friendly, tasty, cheap and a great ambiance. Pizza was perfect, some of the best I've ever had ! read more

Ernesto's - Cheese slice - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Great price. Each slice is actually about a quarter of a whole pizza tray. Recommend this highly for a Togo quick bite.

If you want to get your bang for your buck in pizza form, this is your spot. The one slice is equivalent to two slices of pizza, and every single type they have is delicious. I've had the chicken bacon ranch one and wow. The dough is also perfectly pillowy and crispy. read more

Ernesto's pizza was very delicious. I am a big pizza lover and I enjoyed how they prep the pizza . I will be definitely be going back to Ernesto's read more

Ernesto's - Pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I'm told this is the second best pizza in the neighborhood, and it didn't disappoint. A group of 6 shared several giant pieces of pizza- a veggie, margherita, and a lovely mushroom chicken and broccoli. Tiny location, but it was worth the stop. Huge portions! read more

I ordered the pepperoni pizza slice. And just a heads up, a "slice" is actually 2! So you're getting 2 for 5 dollars. Tomato sauce tasted really fresh. Deff not from a can. Thin Italian pizza with great dough. It's right next to Neptune's if you want to grab a slice while you wait in line for Neptune's. It's a small mom and pop shop with few tables inside. read more

Best pizza in Boston! Just about all of the best food you can imagine in the city comes from the North End. Ernesto's is no exception. The slices are huge and full of flavor and they always have a great selection to choose from. Another must go to when visiting the city. read more

Each year for the last 7 or 8 years, a couple of my boys and I head into Boston the weekend after Thanksgiving for our quest to find the best pizza in Boston. Over the years, we hit all the major joints and have a couple of favorites. One of them is Ernestos. This is the first place that we've gone to twice. Just as we remembered. It was so good that my youngest got a whole pie to go! read more

Quality:4 **** Deal:5 ***** For a slice you get a large portion, a 1/4 pizza. We orders the broccoli & chicken. The pizza has a white sauce. The taste was great however I found the crust to be a bit dry. Service was friendly and fast. read more

Ernesto's - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Review is only based on their pizza. Good looking but very bland. Doughy crust is ok but darn, where's the sauce? There is virtually zero sauce. And the cheese is meh. When I don't eat the crust then I know it's nothing more than average pizza. read more

Ernesto's - Buffalo chicken and Pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I think this pizza place may be a bit better than Rina's in the North End (which I also gave 5 stars) albeit maybe a bit more expensive. Just really good slices and huge. Has 6-10 different topping type of slices out all the time. Recommend this is as good a pizza as you'll find. read more

Ernesto's - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Grab a slice! Lot of variety. Tried the hamburger pizza and it was better than expected. Catch them in the North End.

This pizza reminds me of my hometown in NJ (which is mostly Italian). Thin crispy bottom, doughy centered crust and just enough toppings that don't overpower the taste of the sauce. We got the Buffalo chicken, pepperoni and the caprese. All were fantastic but If I had to choose, I'd definitely do the caprese. It just tastes so fresh! Don't be alarmed with the prices, each "slice" is actually 2. I overheard you can get the cheese or pepperoni as single slices... but I've never had only one slice of pizza... ever. Definitely will be back here. read more

As a Boston local, Ernesto's is my favorite! Quick and hot with HUGE slices and lots of flavor varieties. We love Ernesto's

Good casual pizza place. No frills but very tasty. I've gotten pizza here a few times and each is better than the last. The staff here definitely doesn't put their back into making authentic Italian pizza but it's a nice New York style slice. The margarita pizza was just okay but every "American style" pizza is amazing. So cheesy and crispy and satisfying. I personally recommend a bacon and onion (you'll just have to trust me on that). Go here when you want a better pizza than you'd get from a chain but don't expect it to be old world Italian pizza. read more

We saw the price of a "slice" and thought, "what kind of effing pizza is 4.50/slice???" and the new realized that a "slice" is ¼ pie at Ernesto's. Cool. The guy at the counter was nice, and they had a ton of pizzas in the display, some which looked fresh and some which looked like they'd seen better days - there was one with shrimp on top that looked RIDICULOUSLY DELICIOUS, but we opted for a plain slice. After all, the measure of a good pizza shop is by its unadorned cheese slice, right? The pizza was served hot, and the crust, which is thin in the middle of the pie but gets slightly thicker than I prefer towards the end, was nice and crusty and slightly darkened. The cheese was nice and stretchy and tasty. The tomato sauce wasn't bad but not really a make-or-break part of this pizza, meaning it didn't make this slice that much better or worse by being there. Overall, it's a decent pizza shop. I was raised on NYC pizza, so I'm comparing this to the best in the world (yes!! I said the best in the world!!), and I'd say it's good pizza, but it's not mind-blowing pizza. If I'm ever near there again though, that shrimp pizza has my name on it, and I may need to update my review then! read more

This is a cute little pizza shop in the middle of little Italy . We were looking for a quick bite and found this place . The pizza was absolutely amazing and flavorful. I ordered a combination pizza. The cashier made plenty of suggestions and was very helpful. I will definitely stop by again if I'm in Boston read more

Great little pizza place! Not a lot of seating so "to go" is perfect as well. Slices are large and there are many options. You can't go wrong! Definitely will come back! read more

The serving sizes are so generous, a quarter of a pizza for 6 bucks. The crust was so good and overall there's only good things to say. They have a lot of different toppings but my friend and I kept it pretty simple. It's one of the best deals in comparison to the prices of other places in the area. The seating is pretty crowded but there's a pretty spacious park area across the street. read more

Imtjust in Boston for the weekend on a getaway trip so I can't say that the pizza is the best in town since this was the only place i got a pizza, but I will say, for what it is, I thought it was perfect and totally hit the spot. It's been a long day of bar hopping and perusing the city, so by this time, we were tired and a bit hungry. We came to Ernesto's and was welcomed immediately with friendly service. There were a wide variety of different pizzas displayed that all looked quite delicious. A 'slice' is 1/4 of a pizza, so it's quite large. I shared with my friend a pepperoni and cheese pizza. You choose your pizza, they heat it up and hand it over and you devour at your own speed. Pizza was not super greasy where my plate was drenched, but it was good enough. The dough itself was nice and toasty and the cheese had a good melt to them. I don't think it's the best pizza in the world, but for what it is(a small pizza joint with variety and tasty) it definitely delivered. read more

Ernesto's - Pizzzza!! This is half of the regular size - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

It's amazing that after coming here for over 10 years that they could care less about their patrons and the delivery services they use. When your pizza doesn't show up and you blame the customer and you have an indignant attitude you deserve to lose customers. Maybe the cancel culture is not totally wrong. read more

Seating is limited and the ambiance is generally nonexistent. Nevertheless, pizza is solid and portions are generous. Me and my girlfriend ordered three slices, 1 pep and 2 mushroom & green bell pepper (each one is large enough they cut it into two separate pieces). Slices cost $7 ($3.5 really cause you're getting 2 in 1) and the pep was ready immediately. Service is fast but be prepared to bus your own table. Excellent ratio of cheese, sauce and crust so if you enjoy pizza, Ernesto's is a must try. read more

This is the biggest "slice" of pizza I've ever had. It's actually two slices based on the cut marks. I got their sausage and pepperoni slice. $5.75 A bit steep but considering it's basically two slices, it makes it worth it. I really like the sausage here. Great spice and texture. The pepperoni is standard. Thin crust, chewy NY style. Minus one star for being warm and not hot enough so that the reheated slice is slightly cold in the middle. Also, the crust isn't good enough for me to eat. It's an okay crust, but not finish all the way good. Also, extremely greasy, used 5 napkins to soak it all up. Hence the 4 stars. read more

Pizza was delicious! Eggplant pizza and Margarita pizza were very good! Very large servings!!!!

Not gonna lie, wasn't that impressed. When we got the pizza heated up for us, it wasn't very hot. It could've been because we went later on in the evening so quality wasn't the best. Yes, the slices are big. Yes, one slice is actually two slices. Yes, it's like $6 for a "slice" which really means $3 for a slice of pizza. read more
