    Large Pepperoni Calzone
    Dan M.

    This was a small pizzeria. The staff was nice and the food came out in a timely matter. I tried the large pepperoni calzone ($15?), large chicken chipotle calzone, and a slice of pepperoni pizza ($3?). The pepperoni calzone was by far the best item tasted. There was plenty of pepperoni and cheese while the bread had a slight crunch. The chicken chipotle calzone was a little different. I was not a fan of the chopped chicken that was used. There was a slight kick to it with the chipotle seasoning, but I was just not a fan. I really had to dunk these in the ranch dressing that was provided. The slice of pepperoni pizza was decent. The crust was too thin for my liking. The sauce was a little plain as well. There was enough cheese and pepperoni and the slice was of good size. Will I go back? Debatable.

    The food here is absolutely terrible. I saw a huge line out the door so figured it would be amazing. However, it was probably because it was one of the only food places open near the bars we were at. I just don't understand how you can mess up pizza so badly. There was literally no sauce on my cheese pizza! So disappointing. I honestly love every pizza usually after a night out of drinking but this was horrible. Will never go back no matter how hungry I am!

    Pizza for mr.magoo

    Tastes like chef boyardee. Was ready fast and delivered hot, but the product wasn't great.

    Buffalo chicken pizza

    Drunk pizza hotspot. Be aware when they serve you as half the time they pick half broken slices. Servings are small. Go to The Village instead...much better and nicer people.

We'd eaten all kinds of food and…read morein all kinds of places, but Jim wanted Pizza, so we asked the concierge at the hotel where we could find some killer pizza. Without hesitation he said "New York Pizza. It's just a couple blocks away". And off we went, walking the streets of Boston to get pizza, having no idea what we were heading towards. When we arrived we were greeted with a storefront and order-at-the-counter pizza. Not what I was expecting, but I was OK with it. We looked at the menu and -- WOW -- the pizza options were nearly endless! I'm guessing about two dozen pizza varieties with more combinations of toppings that I thought were mathematically possible. And these pizzas were H U G E ! There are about a dozen tables and not enough chairs at New York Pizza, so if you find an empty chair - hey, fair game. We managed to get 4 chair for our high top four top. While we were placing our order I asked the guy behind the counter if this place was always this busy. He said "busy? This is slow!". I can't even imagine, because every table was occupied. Aside from the menu boards and the music (they were playing a varied playlist of 80s, 90s, and 2000s), it wasn't big on décor, but it suited it's purpose. I imagine the do a pretty significant takeout business. After about 2 minutes of consideration we landed on a Meat Lover's pizza. After a day of A LOT of walking, a pizza with pepperoni, ham, and sausage sounded 100% perfect. I looked like a lot of pizza. And I recall thinking "there's no way the four of us can eat a pizza that big!". (more on that later). There is no soda fountain so your beverage came out of a can or bottle from a refrigerator. Fast forward about 12 minutes and our pizza was called. It. Was. Freaking. Enormous. And it looked SOOO good. And it was hot. I mean HAWT! It was so hot we had to let it set for about 5 minutes before we could grab a slice. (non sequitur) I've never been a fan of folding pizza in half. I've given shade to people who fold pizza in half quite a few times. After much consideration, I now feel like I need to apologize to those people. This pizza was so big and the crust so thin that you had to fold it in half...and I'm going to sheepishly admit that I embraced the folding of the pizza slice. For one thing, to keep from scalding the inside of my mouth, and to keep from wearing pizza sauce on either side of you face like Joker. The pizza amazingly delicious and we ate with abandon. Seriously. Remember how I said the four of us could never eat a pizza that large? I lied.

I decided to go with the Wicked Pesto Pizza. It came with the signature crust, pesto base, grilled chicken, blue cheese, asiago, and fresh garlic.

Just a few blocks from Boston Common and the Public Garden, it is a perfect stop for a casual lunch or snack. This is my go-to spot when I want a quick, high-quality slice in the area.

The salted pork appears to include Prosciutto di Parma from Langirano, Prosciutto Cotto, and Salcissia. Baking rendered the prosciutto's fat, which blends with the caramel to create a beautiful golden syrup that flows across the pizza's surface. The prosciutto was savory, oily, and tender; the minced salcissia retains its coarse texture and rich meaty aroma; the caramel was sweet and mellow with a honey-like sweetness, forming the top, middle, and base notes respectively. The arugula was slightly warmed, losing its astringent and raw taste while maintaining its crisp texture, helped to cut through the richness together with the Parmesan cheese powder. The crust was crispy, while the inside the dough was soft and chewy. The cooking time and seasoning were all just right, and the restaurant's proud wooden oven added a charming smoky flavor.
