    Garden Salad
    Marah H.

    This pizza place will knock your socks off! It has a prime location, close to transit and hotels but feels very local. I ordered two slices of the special and my wife order a pepperoni and a garden salad. The pizza and salad were magnificent. It might be the best pizza I've had ever. The special was pepperoni, ricotta, hot honey, and basil, it was booming with flavors and made to perfection. The salad was as if they picked all the produce as they were making it; it was so fresh! The service was on par with the food. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!! The restaurant is small but inviting and there are maybe 5 tables inside. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great slice!

    Senza Nome Pizza

    Had a great dinner here tonight with friends. We ordered the senza nome pizza, a Caesar salad, and I got a slice of cheese. The food was absolutely delicious - great flavor on the red sauce and a crust that holds up to toppings. The Caesar salad was super fresh, a nice light dressing and olive oily croutons that were to die for. The service was very friendly as well, feels like a hometown place in downtown boston. Will definitely be back!

    Pizza with hot honey

    ABSOLUTELY THE BEST !!! Me and my friend came here and we had the best pizza ever. We are going back a second time before we leave for our trip. The quality of the pizza was really good and the customer service was amazing.. very fresh pizza you can tell it's made with love.

    I got the white pizza and added pepperoni.

    Amazing pizza, some of the best I've ever had. Made fresh in a brick oven, extremely flavorful and great service. We also got the Caesar salad which was amazing, the dressing tasted homemade and had fresh Parmesan on it. Overall great experience, I would recommend to anyone wanting some homemade Boston pizza.

    Good pizza. Better owner. Super cool owner spent time telling us about all the great places Boston has for good Italian food when we said were from out of town. The pizza was delicious and they have a good variety of things to eat on the menu. Centrally located down the block from the TD Center. Must stop if you're in the area

    Food and service was absolutely perfect. Eggplant parm sandwhich was fantastic close to td garden

    Great value for your money, friendly staff, and a genuine establishment. If you're looking for a tasty and very affordable meal, stop by here. It's close to Boston's north Amtrak station so you can get a taste of an authentic meal rather than going to a chain. Enjoyed stopping here for a bit before resuming my travels!

    Small pizza. Perfect for two people.

    First off, let's get the most important thing stated up front... the pizza is delicious. Toppings include fresh veggies and quality meats, plus delicious mozzarella that's cooked perfectly. The order was ready in minutes. It's my second time there and it's a nice bonus that the owner is a kind man who pays attention to his customers.

    One of my go to places for takeout. Their salads are great. Not a big place and only has 2 small tables for dine in. Staff is nice and do a great job taking care of customers.

    Bidabeep is an absolutely amazing sub. These cutlets were so crispy and fresh
    Max G.

    My favorite lunch spot around. I walk a long time in the rain sometimes to get these sandwiches. The chicken parm, meat ball, and bidabeep sandwiches are insane! One of the best chicken Parms in Boston hands down. My favorite meatball sub around, and the bidabeep with the fresh mooz and procuitto is light but great. They guy who works here is always super friendly too. People seem to like the pizza a lot the Sicilian looks so good, but it's like 5$ a slice... I was born in the 90s so I can't bring myself to try it yet. I want to try their calzones sometime but I think they don't do individuals anymore.

    Nice staff. Very good pizza. Small area, but if you don't mind either waiting for a table or standing to eat, the pizza is worth it.

Salty Pig Pizza: A pizza with the same name as the restaurant! Who was the genius who came up with the idea of ​​salted pig and beer caramel? It's brilliant! 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. Affogato: I had high expectations, but it was just okay. The espresso was too sour, and the vanilla ice cream couldn't balance it out. The almond biscuits had an overpowering almond flavor, and the flavor of plant-based protein was terrible! (Oh, this should have been a plus...)

The linguine was on the smaller side portion-wise, but it came loaded with mussels and shrimp. The pasta was cooked perfectly, and the sauce had a nice tangy, flavorful profile that really stood out. The Salsiccia pizza was good--plenty of toppings for its size and a well-balanced amount of cheese and sauce. What kept it from being great, if I'm being a bit hyper critical, was the crust. It leaned too doughy and lacked the crispness and airy texture you'd expect; the closest comparison I can think of is something like an Olive Garden breadstick. Service was okay--nothing particularly impressionable--but the ambience made up for it. The space felt warm, trendy, and like the perfect spot for a casual dinner. Overall, a solid spot with well-executed dishes, especially the pasta, and a pizza that's definitely enjoyable with just a small detail holding it back from the next level.

We had the meat lover's pie and oh my. Wgat a delicious fusion animals, cheese, tomatoes and crust. The taste took me back to a pizza I had many years ago at a place in Cambridge--in a great way! They only sell whole pies, which at first seemed annoying (the first time I tried coming here a few years ago I was by myself and couldn't eat a whole pizza alone) so I had to make this my inaugural tasting). But I see that as ensuring you are only eating a fresh product, where all the ingredients cook into each other and come out hot and ready, instead or something reheated from four hours ago because the day was slow. The menu is simple: pizzas and meat skewers. They know what they do well and lean into it hard. The ambiance has a rustic feel, with tall, weathered wooden booths that make eating a close experience, so please bring people you really like! The servers are present but not hovering and checked on us with the kind of frequency that says, "yeah we should let you eat but not forget you are there." I will be back for sure.

The steak tips and lamb tips were cooked very well, juicy and tender though lacking salt and seasoning. Sausage was good, a bit spicy. I didn't understand the addition of the bread, it was dry and there was no butter or olive oil to go with it. Portions were ok for the price. Pizza was ok, not my kind of pizza, the crust is very thin and cracker like, it doesn't hold up under additional toppings. Flavor of sauce and toppings was good, toppings were also generous. Service was fine, it took the wait staff a little bit to notice we were waiting to be seated. Overall it's worth a try, there's a reason they've been in business over 100 years.
