    Burnt cookies
    Deb J.

    We are always looking for Catering options including a great pizza delivery with alternate meal choices for every palate. So, we tried Upper Crust twice. Using the online ordering and scheduling tool was challenging as it continually changes the delivery time defaulting to 'NOW' if you make a change while finalizing your order. That aside, the pizza is GOOD. Delivery... with a hefty tip, WELL BELOW AVERAGE with a very cranky delivery person. My last order included cookies. EVERY SINGLE COOKIE was burned black on the bottom. Shame on you Upper Crust for knowingly sending "David's" burned cookies. For all of the related challenges, we won't be using Upper Crust any time soon.

    I had a bit of extra time before my appointment and I ended up spending it all here at Upper Crust. They were clean, they were quiet, and after I had a slice of pizza and a soda, no one really minded that I was here for over two hours with my laptop. Thin crust pizza was tasty.

    Grabbed a veggie & cheese slice last Thursday for a quick lunch bite. Pizza slices are extremely thin and skimpy on the cheese and toppings. One "slice" is really a double in width so at least you feel like you get your moneys worth. Tiny inside- much more of a takeout place. Not sure what other pizza places are around but I'd prob check other options.

    We found pube or beard hair on our pizza

    We found a pube or beard hair on our pizza (shown in photo), had a missing part of our order, and our order showed up an hour late. Would never return. I heard terrible things about the Burlington location so maybe that's why it shut down. I shouldn't have ordered from Upper Crust since it's now past 10pm and I have nothing to eat.

    We only do takeout. Best pizza in Lexington. Thin slices. Generous toppings. Well worth the price

    Got a 14" 1/2 plain, 1/2 caramelized onions and ground sausage. Really good, crust not too charred on the bottom.

    In my humble opinion, this is the best cheese pizza I've had in the Boston suburbs, and I've lived in this region for 20+ years.

    The gluten free pizza is the best in the area in both size and quality. We always pickup but they also have delivery.

    The pizza is always great at UCP!! I will say food from anywhere is always better eaten at the restaurant than having it delivered.

    The best pesto pizza I've ever had ("Slightly Pesto" on the menu) and the best crust in town. Crispy, thin, wood fired crust! Delicious!!

    Yelp gives this place four stars…read more I give this place four stars. I give Northender's category five stars. Northender is just like 380 places all over the Boston Area. And I love them all. * * * Northender is an East Coast Sub Shop. Sub shops have pizza too. Pizza is good all over the country. Subs are NOT good all over the country. They are usually only good only in the Northeast. Sub shops in Texas are godawful. Sub shops in Michigan and Wisconsin are no great shakes. So when I go to Boston or Connecticut or Rhode Island or -Hallelujah - Philadelphia ... I go out of my way to get at least one real deal sub. One real deal sub and I am happy. If on two days, I can get two real deal subs, I am twice as happy. * * * Most East Coast sub shops are fine. There may be some place that has legendary three standard deviations above the mean subs. I have yet to find one. There is probably a tail end of terrible East Coast sub shops at the bottom end of the distribution. If I have eaten at one, I have repressed the memory. * * * The Northender is controversial. Some Yelpers hate it. Others love it. My local hosts love it. What I had is outstanding. So I am proudly in the pro-Northender camp. Because sub shops also do pizzas and Italian main dish entrees - there may or may not be issues with the other two thirds of the menu. But on subs - these folks are just fine and dandy. I had a meatball parmigiana sub. Those are always good. Even mediocre places in Texas with their cold cuts coming straight from Sysco can sometimes manage a decent meatball sub. * * * Northender lets you get hot grilled green peppers on your meatball sub. Texas has never heard of such a thing. Hot grilled green peppers on any kind of a parmigiana sub? Take plug. Insert into electric socket. All the lights come on. I was bright and shiny for the rest of the day. (And that rest of the day involved a long and miserable trip through Logan airport. I needed that sub as a bright spot on a day that was going to be dreariness up the snoot.) * * * Are the subs in Arlington better or worse than the subs in Lexington, or in Dedham, or in Marblehead or in Southie? I really couldn't tell you. But certain pleasures are like chocolate. They are good unless they are proven otherwise. * * * How are Northenders salads, or the lasagnas of the day or their house special pizza? I have no idea. But just keep those sub sandwiches coming. I am with ya, Northender.

    A friend raved about the pizza, so we happily gave it a try. The home delivery via Slice was on…read moretime. The pizza was warm but not hot. During my first bite I bit into a black olive pit. I called to tell them about it, but the person who answered the phone did not understand what I was saying. Otherwise, the cheese was not great and overall pizza was okay, but not worth ordering twice.
