The great was great, and the vegan cheese was some of the better I've had on pizza. The meatballs didn't really taste like meatballs, but they were yummy. We enjoyed both pizzas, but didn't feel blown away. The vegan potato bombs were yummy, though--delicious sauce. Overall, a good experience!

I was impressed by the cocktail menu, so many fun options and even mocktails for those who don't drink. Our favorite pizza was the cheeseburger one that our friends spoke highly of! Such good flavors! I usually love a good veggie pizza but this one wasn't the best, as my boyfriend describe it as soupy with too much marinara sauce. We sat outside, the waiters were nice and attentive.

Our waitress was knowledgeable and gave good food and wine recommendations from the menu. Our party really enjoyed the octopus as it was a tender bite with freshness coming from the peas/mint/cilantro. We also enjoyed the juicy meatballs with tomato sauce and again a hint of freshness and nuttiness coming from the pine nut pesto. We were not crazy about the striped bass crudo. It just seemed to fall flat flavor wise for me maybe not enough salt or acid to really counter balance the other fresh clean flavors in the dish. That being said it was not bad just underwhelming. The pizzas were great value price wise and the flavor combinations were unique but also worked well with one another. I liked how they didn't shy away from using spicy peppers on the Nduja pizza. The Fennel Sausage pizza had that fattiness from the sausage mixed with acidity from the cherry peppers and some creaminess/extra layer of flavor with the green garlic cream sauce. I somewhat wish the pizza bottom was baked slightly longer for a less floppy center but that's just personal preference. They clearly put a lot of effort into this pizza recipe. The only critique we would have is the service seemed a bit rushed. We would have enjoyed a bit more time between appetizers and the mains. Even the check came pretty shortly after we finished which would be understandable on a busy weekend night but this was a Tuesday evening and there seemed to be plenty of empty tables around us. Other than that would recommend for an elevated night out!

I got the after school snack cocktail which was very refreshing and paired nicely with the meal. We split the Bucatini Verde and it was so delicious. I couldn't even pinpoint the flavors I was eating but it was amazing. Fresh pasta and just really good flavor. We saw a dish online we wanted, but the server explained they use that pasta for different dishes and change out the sauce, so I'm glad I got to try it. We then split the Pepperoni + Vodka Sauce pizza which was good. I'll be honest I was a tad disappointed in the pizza. It was flavorful but I think I was expecting the same feeling I got when I had the pasta. It was good, but just that, good. Crust was a little burnt. I did love the vibes and pasta and it's definitely known in Cambridge for a good reason. I'd recommend a reservation if you'd like a table as it does fill up fast.

The crust was thick and soft, with a flaky edge. It was a bit too rich for me and lacked the chewy texture of a pizza. Tomato & Basil Sicilian Pizza: Less cheese, which was better, but the thick bread and tomato sauce still made it a bit too rich for my taste.

My go-tos are the mushroom pie and clam pie, both of which are super flavorful and made with high-quality ingredients.

Not too saucy but extremely refreshing!

The service was poor from the start. The waitress told us we would be seated at the bar. She rolled her eyes and appeared visibly annoyed when I asked if it was okay that my sister was under 21. She said it was fine as long as we didn't order drinks, then seated us at the bar. We were only given drink menus. When the bartender came over to take our order, I had to ask for a food menu myself. Our seating was also uncomfortable. We were placed right next to the bar/server station. My sister got splashed when drinks were being opened, and servers repeatedly bumped into her chair while passing. We ordered the Carnivore pizza. The pizza itself was quite salty. The dough was decent, but not impressive. I kept trying to convince myself it was good, but it fell short. Pizza: 3/5 Service: 2/5 Atmosphere: 3/5 Would I return? No. Overall, I was surprised by the 4.4 rating. My expectations were much higher based on the reviews.

As with any good restaurant, its menu is well curated. While there is a nice outdoor dining area, given the heat of the day, we dined inside. Without reservations, we were accommodated at the bar. Reservations are a must. Bar seating is fine, there is ample space, not at all crowded. The bartender doubled as our waiter. He was very knowledge about the menu and personable. As an appetizer, my son and I split the chicken cutlet - which for some could be a meal. Delicious as always. As an entree, I ordered my favorite, the pizza margherita. My son ordered the same topped with sausage and prosciutto. There is no skimping on toppings here! The pizzas at "Si Cara", are a treat, very highly recommended. Made like in Naples, savory-sweet marinara, fresh mozzarella, topped with basil, delivered hot and ready to eat! Price to portion is excellent. Parking, it's the city, there is none. Great staff and welcoming environment.

This location has no service - its counter-ordering and the food was not the same. The pizza had barely any ricotta though we paid up for it, and the toppings were so scarce that it was mostly crust (more than usual Neapolitan). The garlic bread was the same price but half the size. It was cafe style seating, not restaurant, and just a weak version of the South End location that I do not recommend.

I haven't been to this establishment in a few years and had asked about a specific slice of pizza that is now only served on Fridays. After getting my answer, he asked if I had called. I said no - he then proceeds to say " be quite now, the men are talking ". This man has never seen me before, and will never see me again. This is absolutely unacceptable to say to anyone let alone a customer. I was in shock and froze. I thought to myself how extremely rude that was - and unmerited. I ended up still going forward with my purchase but regret every second of it. The pizza did not taste good, after all this idiot left a horrible taste in my mouth.

The wood-fired crust was excellent, with that perfect combination of crispy edges, a little char, and a soft, chewy center. The Meatball & Ricotta was hearty and flavorful, and the creamy ricotta balanced the meatballs really well. The Sausage & Onion was another winner, really tasty and well executed. The Honey Bacon Bianca was probably the most interesting of the three and definitely stood out. The salty, smoky bacon with the sweetness from the honey was a great combination, especially on a white pizza. Sharing a few different pizzas is definitely the way to go here because you get to try a little bit of everything. Fun atmosphere, really good wood-fired pizza, and a place I'd happily come back to next time I'm in Brookline.
