    I've seen this place talked about on social media for so long, so it's been on my list to try. Drinks- very limited beer menu. Bartender took some artistic liberties with our drinks which were a miss. For example, ordered a vesper and they didn't have lillet so subbed with elderflower liqueur rather than just making a regular gin martini, which is what I had requested if they didn't have lillet. Ordered the kale and apple salad- very missable and literally no dressing on it. Pizza- pizza was super small and not filling at all. We split a pepperoni pizza between two people and definitely should have gotten a second pizza. Pizza was nothing special. Overall, sadly didn't live up to the hype!

    Mushroom & Guanciale
    Chloe C.

    I visited Si Cara last weekend with my boyfriend for date night and was so excited because it has a lot of hype on social media!! We started with some drinks, which were good but nothing outstanding. We shared the white bean dip, the prosciutto, the mushroom and guanciale pizza, and the apple salad. I will say I was a bit underwhelmed and felt that everything lacked a bit of flavor. The prosciutto was probably my favorite bite of the evening, and the flatbread that came with it was delicious! The crust on the pizza was the best part as everything else weighed the pie down significantly and it was pretty soggy. Maybe we ordered the wrong things, but I was expecting to be blown away based on what I had seen online. Very cute spot in a great neighborhood with attentive service, but the food wasn't anything special in my opinion.

    Shrimp scampi
    Lilian Z.

    Really solid pizza with creative toppings and a nice chewy crust. Ordered for pickup and everything was really at the estimated time. The shrimp scampi pizza was definitely our favorite - it had a great garlic flavor and was balanced with the lemon juice on top! Prices are a bit high and I wish there were more toppings on the pizza but overall I look forward to returning and trying more of the menu!

    Meatball Al Forno

    The restaurant was super busy but the servers at the front were super sweet and informative about wait times! Got seating at the bar; the server behind the bar wasn't very attentive and didn't check in often. Ambiance was nothing special but was a clean space. The drinks were sweet and had lots of flavor--9/10 for both! Point docked for them not being that out of the box and for weak alcohol taste. The food was underwhelming, but it's difficult to make pizza or meatballs stand out. 6/10 for the pizza (good texture, lacked flavor and complexity), 5/10 for the meatballs (texture was mid, cheese hardened quickly, sauce tasted close to straight tomato paste imo and had no complexity).

    Tiramisu
    Juliana V.

    The pizza was good but the price was not worth it. The tiramisu was fantastic though!

    Great pizza, great vibes, would highly recommend. Appetizers were absolutely amazing- we got the mozzarella sticks, which were probably the best mozz sticks I've ever had, the garlic bread (scrumptious), clams, and meatballs. If you can, get all of them because I truly cannot decide which one was my favorite. For pizzas, we got the hot honey chicken, pepperoni, and mushrooms pizza. Hot honey chicken was definitely my favorite! Service was also amazing, our server very attentive and gave great recommendations and have a great sense of humor. Would definitely go back!

    Sausage & Mushroom Pizza
    Susan L.

    As soon as you walk in, the restaurant has a nice feel to it and it was busy on a Tuesday evening, which got me excited. The interior looks nice for a first date night spot or something, but that's really all there is to this place. In terms of food, it was just mediocre at best. First off, it was just way too hot in there for the amount of people seated. Our server was nice and friendly but after ordering our food and drinks, it took them about 15 minutes to come back to us to tell us that they forgot what our order was! The Sausage & Mushroom pizza was more mushroom than anything and the bread was not that great, also burnt. The snap pea salad was.... I don't even know how to describe it but I wouldn't get it again. Also, I don't know how this is considered a wine bar when you order a bottle and there are no wine glasses.... they give you a smaller water glass to drink your wine. This is a big no-no!!! To be quite frank, I probably won't be back. You're only paying high prices for ambiance and their rent.

    I rarely finish entire pizzas but here I for sure took down the entire pie shamelessly (okay fine, there was a bit of shame involved). This pizza has the fluffiest, most flavorful crust I have ever had with a perfect woodfired char. Conotto is now my new favorite style of crust. The pepperoni ($23) was divine. The Tahini ($21) was interesting... I'll say it needed a bit more oomph (I took it home and added hot honey) but was still good. I would say in between the two I'd pick the red sauce though. They even give you a little pot of garlic olive oil to dip the crust in. We ordered the white bean dip ($8) for extra dipping pleasure. Staff were nice, and the interior is sophisticated. The wall art is really minimalist, quirky, and cool.

    Squash blossom
    Rebecca D.

    My family and I came here on a Sunday for lunch and tried two new-to-us pizzas, the squash blossom and the spanakopita. Both were very good! I especially loved the stracciatella cheese on the squash blossom - so rich and creamy. The squash blossom pizza was a little salty for my taste (and I am a salt lover) and it took quite a while for the pizzas to come out, but other than that, no complaints!

    Daily special

    Finally had a chance to come here after making a reservation and it was WORTH the wait! I came to Si Cara before hoping to try it out but they were completely booked and the employees recommended I make a reservation for next time. I did so and we were served quickly! We got 2 pizzas for the 4 of us. Each pizza is about 13 inches so everyone got two slices (one of each). This pizza was the BEST pizza I've ever had. The potato and pesto tasted amazing. I loved the pesto sauce that they used and it went so well with the potato. The special pizza we got had apple, dill and pork. Thankfully, our waiter noticed we were trying to accommodate our friend who was vegetarian and offered to put the pork on the side. It was very kind of him! The special pizza was just as good with a lot of bold flavors that went very well together. The place itself was surprisingly busy for 6pm on a Thursday night but it seems to be this busy every day between people dining in and takeout. Regardless, the service was quick and the seating area was clean. I loved my experience at Si Cara and would highly recommend anyone to stop by if they're looking for good pizza in Cambridge!

    Garlic Bread
    Neeka P.

    Everything we ate here was delicious. The spanakopita was super interesting and tasty. I loved the soppressata the most and the pepperoni was also great. The garlic bread and fried mozzarella for apps were also great choices and the Caesar salad was good not great. The wait staff was also amazing and so nice and funny! We had a group dinner here and it was the perfect vibe.

    Pizza pizza!
    Jason S.

    Yeah, casual, fast, not too filling pizza that's just right. More Italian style than New York. You and your buddies will be excited about the roasted garlic olive oil and in house hot honey. Like I said, not super fancy, but again the staff attentive and food was great

    Butternut squash pizza
    Niamh M.

    Very good pizza! Really loved the crust and it wasn't too floppy. Great options for the pizza with unique flavours. I got the butternut squash pizza with prosciutto and almonds and it was great! We also got the mushroom pizza but I preferred the squash! The restaurant is small and cozy and we weren't rushed.

The menu refers to these as "Greek cheese bread" but somehow that doesn't do it justice - these were immensely pillowy and cheesy, with an amazing crust, with homemade honey butter on the side. I could have had just these for dinner and been satisfied. They really nailed the bread. My other favorites: 1. Hipiti: spicy whipped feta with crispy potatoes on the side. I don't do well with spice but I absolutely loved this. 2. Marouli: winter lettuce with the most amazing vinaigrette dressing. My only knock to this is, presentation-wise, they serve it with half of the plate empty and the other half with salad. I don't understand why restaurants do this because - one, it only highlights the smaller portion and two, we're just going to mix the salad all around in the bowl anyway. 3. Boudeto: daily catch in a beautiful tomato broth. For a seafood dish at a restaurant in Back Bay, this was priced at a fairly reasonable $28. The only dish that fell a little flat for me was the tzatziki - needed a bit more seasoning. As it was, I was eating mostly just plain yogurt. The table-side preparation was cool, though. The space is its own visual dinner, there's simply a lot to look at (including a drawing of Poseidon riding a surf board). We got the big table in the back, which was a beautiful glass structure with a whole terrarium underneath. We couldn't stop marveling at it throughout the meal. Our waiter was wonderful - very helpful recommendations, came by to check on us often even though we were pretty far in the back, super patient with our questions. Hard to get reservations but worth it! Don't bother driving / trying to find parking unless you're willing to eat a hefty garage fee, it's Back Bay.

The restaurant was pretty dead, so we were expecting a relaxed, smooth experience. The prosciutto and cheeses were great -- but let's be honest, it's hard to mess that up. My friend ordered a cheese and meat board and a steak, and I ordered the mushrooms and mussels. After two or three rounds of drinks, I realized my food still hadn't come out. I asked the bartender about it, and he said it could be out in five minutes. I told him that if it was already on the way, we'd take it -- but if it hadn't been put in yet, that was fine and we didn't want it anymore. His response was basically, "If you want it, it'll be out in five minutes." No explanation, no acknowledgment of what happened, and no apology. It felt more like "do you want it or not?" rather than any ownership of the situation. In the end, I never got my food, and it just left a bad taste in my mouth. Not terrible, but definitely disappointing given how quiet it was. The food we did have was solid, but the lack of communication and basic apology knocked this down to two stars for me.
