    Cheese slice
    Olivia S.

    Great spot to grab a slice!! Staff are super friendly. They can either heat you up a slice of a pizza already made up OR you can order your own pizza. Slices were huge (about a 1/4 of a pizza)! Cute spot right on Charles street. Smaller shop but there was a decent amount of seating.

    This was some of the best pizza I have ever had. The crust was thin and perfect and the toppings were a great combination. We ordered ahead and ate at a local park and the service was quick and efficient. I only gave it a 4 though because I thought it was slightly on the expensive side for pizza .... BUT worth it because I'm not from Boston and enjoyed every slice.

    Stopped by on our trek of the Freedom Trail hungry after hours of walking. We wanted something quick before we headed for the pastry shoppes and this placed smelled amazing from a block away. Service was quick for a single slice and the pizza itself was good but not great. The pizza did have a bit of a weird aftertaste after eating it about half way. The inside is simple and fine as long as it's not too busy otherwise they would likely run out of seating.

    For Boston pizza, this place was very solid! I'm always looking for options for a good slice and I would put Upper Crust in my rotation. However, if you're looking for the best option in the Beacon Hill area, go to Florina instead. My friend and I ended up camping out at the counter area for a bit, but they had regular tables as well. The service was fast, which I very much appreciated. This also seems like the perfect place to grab some pizza and take it to the Boston Commons. No complaints from me!

    We ordered the Harvard Street pizza and it was delicious. We split a small between 3 people and it was more than enough. Great prices and good pizza. Their cheese bread was also large and big enough for 3-4 people to share. Highly recommend. Casual local spot.

    We were visiting the area for a wedding and had walked around the common for a bit. This was super close. They had a lot of neat offerings but we stuck with a small classic pepperoni. The pizza was perfect.

    14" Beacon Hill Buffalo and 14" Fig, Goat Cheese and Prosciutto Pizza

    I just have to start off this review by saying, crush red peppers should AUTOMATICALLY be given on the side when ordering a whole pizza. Especially when it's two whole pizza lol this would have been a 5 Star review because the crush red peppers is crucial on a very very good pizza... FOOD : The figs, goat cheese, and prosciutto pizza is a must get. The sweet onions on it makes it so good. Highly recommend it! The Buffalo chicken was also good but the Buffalo sauce can be a little spicy for some. A little extra blue cheese or ranch will make it good. Overall, got to love upper crust. But please start providing crush red peppers!!

    Loved their vegan pizza! I went to an event that had several pizzas delivered from here, and was very happy with the vegan option. The crust is super super thin and a little crunchy at the edges, which I loved. Would recommend.

    If you love thin crust pizza this is your place. The pizza was amazing, but the fried mozzarella was okay at best. There is a place to sit though it's limited. Service was fast despite the July 4th rush hour!

    Pepperoni Slice
    McKenna M.

    Stopped in for a quick bite. There's a pretty good ratio of pepperoni to pizza, but it's very flimsy. Has a similar taste to a frozen pizza. Personally just not a big fan.

    When in Boston, on Beacon Hill, and craving pizza, this is the place! Mostly take out. Limited seating. Wonderful selection, crispy thin crust, yum!

    Raw dough

    I kept coming across this place for vegan pizza and decided to finally try it. I can't figure out what everyone is ranting and raving about. 1. Expensive like most have noted but I was okay with that if the quality matched. It didn't. 2. The pizza dough was raw on the bottom. When I picked the slice up, it flapped all over the place and when I bit it, the bottom was soggy and disgusting. Literally inedible. Had to throw the whole thing away. Complete waste of money.

    Raising Cane's is the fast-food spot that proves sometimes simplicity is the secret. This popular…read morechain has built a cult following around a very focused menu: perfectly crispy chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, coleslaw, buttery Texas toast, and their legendary Cane's sauce. The box combos are where the value really shines. You get a great deal on a satisfying meal where everything works together. The chicken is always reliably good, and that signature sauce, a creamy, tangy, slightly peppery blend is what ties it all together. It's delicious for dipping not just the chicken, but also the fries and that excellent, soft Texas toast. The fries themselves hit that sweet spot of being crispy without being greasy. A word to the wise: the lines can get seriously long, as it's a hugely popular spot. The absolute best move is to order ahead through their app to skip the wait, which makes grabbing a quick and easy meal a total breeze. Overall, it's a consistently good, decently-priced meal for when a fried chicken craving strikes. Just a heads-up that all that fried goodness, while tasty, can sometimes feel a bit heavy on the stomach, but for most it's a small price to pay for that specific comfort food fix.

Cane's is the best fast food in my opinion. It's my go-to place for chicken fingers. I always order extra sauce and extra fries.

I was handed the menu with a glass of water. After looking over the menu they took my order. I ordered the New Orleans coffee. Good drink. A little on the sweet side but had a lot of alcohol! To start I had the tater tots. Pretty basic but it had a good seasoning to you! Not just salt and pepper! For the main dishes we had the Southern fried chicken sliders. It was a nice sweet and spicy blend. Not too spicy, just the right amount of kick to you! Also we got the chicken and waffles. As soon as we gave the menu back to them, not even 10 minutes later the food was at our spots. Piping hot and fresh. Mind you, the place was packed! So I'm not mad at that! The chicken thighs were seasoned well and juicy! The only thing I didn't like, was the waffle was kind of soggy and thin. Not like a Belgium waffle that is thick and crispy. But still, not bad. I would recommend trying them out but make reservations for a table.

Being in such a busy area means it can get really crowded, and parking around Fenway is famously tough, so planning for takeout or delivery through their app might save you some hassle. The core of the meal is the crispy chicken tenders or sliders with that signature spicy rub. It starts mild at the lower levels but has a significant ramp. Starting at "Medium" is where you really begin to feel the tingling burn, and it jumps dramatically from there to the "Extra Hot" and "Reaper" levels. The Dave's Sauce is the perfect creamy, cooling companion to cut through that heat The chicken can sometimes be on the drier side, though the generous sauce helps. The crinkle-cut fries are a solid side, and their thick milkshakes are a popular choice for putting out the fire if you overestimate your spice tolerance. It's a solid, no-frills spot for a crave-worthy spicy chicken fix. Just know your spice level, expect a crowd (especially around game time), and have a plan for parking.
