★★★★☆ 4.0 Maggie P. · Jan 2026

Very delicious pizza. Came in on 2 different occasions. Ordered a plain cheese with anchovies and a broccoli, garlic and tomato pizza which tasted very fresh and refreshing. Thought they would use tomato sauce at the base so I was in for a surprise when I found out they used a garlic white sauce instead which was wonderful and nothing like I’ve ever eaten on a pizza. The 1/2 Caesar salad that I’ve ordered was also okay as well although it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. Am only taking 1 star away cause my order wasn’t packed with any napkins or utensils and since I was staying at a place nearby that didn’t offer any.. it only made me looking for those things to be an inconvenience.

I’ve been coming here a long time for ice cream, probably the best in the area like many other reviews have attested to. The dark chocolate sorbet might be my favorite frozen treat in Boston. It is everything I wish chocolate ice creams were: rich and fudgy without being overwhelmingly sweet and heavy. I only recently tried their pizzas (got take out) and they really did not disappoint!! I got the sausage fennel and the muffuletta. Both briny, meaty and delicious in their own ways. For those of you that do not like too much char on pizzas, I would highly encourage you to order the pizzas “lightly cooked” contrary to the warning against this that is on their website. It made for a delightfully chewy and airy crust that was like a nice piece of bread you could probably dip in sauce or olive

Hands down best in Boston. They specifically tell you you're pizza is going to be well done (burnt edges). If somebody complains, they don't speak English. The edges are toasted, not burnt, giving the pizza a great crispy char crust. Intereior is just tosted perfectly. High quality sauce, ingredients, and the cheese is insanely good. Service is ON POINT, and the craft beers are amazingly curated. Menu is not too big too, so they have put time and effort into EACH item. Not to be missed, Just next to Revolution Hotel, so a must try for any tourists or families. The small size pizza is enough for one! Watch them work with open kitchen and oven fire (great in December, sit at the front of the bar). Cannot go wrong, believe me. Some of the reviews below are just silly karons.

Only negative was that Alsatian pizza was spelled incorrectly since it’s a recipe from a region of Alsace and it should be spelled “Alsacienne”. 😅 Amazing beers and the dough was perfectly cooked, no need to ask for “Lightly Cooked”, it adds a little char and the slice still folds nicely in half without cracking. Toppings are flavorful and service was great!

I made reservations to sit inside. There were other tables open. So I don't know if the reservations were necessary. There is outdoor seating as well. We shared a grilled chicken Caesar salad and a pepperoni pizza. The chicken was moist and perfectly grilled. The pizza was so good. The sauce tasted like the tomatoes were had squeezed and the mozzarella cheese was so yummy. The pepperoni were the old style that curl when cooked. There was a perfect char on the crust. There was a little flop to the pizza. But it was so delicious. I will be back. We also tried some of their house made ice cream. We brought 2 pints home. Great place. Great service. Great food. You won't be disappointed.
