We were really excited about this place given the reviews and line for the food. Ultimately we left a bit disappointed but maybe we got what we paid for, as everything was less than $9. Sicilian pizza was not as cheesy as we hoped and tasted a bit overdone. Arancini was warm and cheesy but lacked a strong flavor.

If you’re looking for a cheap eat this may fit the spot but think there’s better food options in the North End.

I was told that the cheese pizza here was one of the best pizzas they have ever had. I usually dislike cheese pizza due to the lack of salty proteins but I was very pleasantly surprised. It is very light for being pizza.

We also got the panzarotti which was filled with potato and cheese. It was good but personally I wish there was some kind of a sauce to add some moisture.

If I lived around this place I’d probably come every week. Owner seems really chill too!

One of the best pizza place in town. The food in this place is so delicious. I ordered Pizza, Pizzette, Panzarotti, and Arancini. There are many options of beverages that you can drink while enjoying the food. At the same time, there are plenty tables in the resto. The queue to order the food and beverages is quite long, but it is worth it. There are restrooms. I really like the art on the wall and the pictures. Moreover, the representatives are friendly and kind. Would love to come back to this place.

Gem…Wow This restaurant is one of the best pizza in Boston! It’s on Hanover Street, Galleria Umbertos is a cash only. Eat in and take out lunch spot. They get long lines and are opened for lunch and close when the food has sold out for the day. No leftovers ever! The restaurant is owned by two brothers both natives of the North End. Hands down the best pizza in Boston! from the Pizza dough to the sauce you can taste the love and hard work put into this pizza l love it! They also sell pizza dough and pizza by the pan for take out…The interior is old school and outdated but it’s authentic… The prices could not be more reasonable…If you like cheap, tasty, fresh authentic Italian food served in a warm environment in an old school, Mom and Pop restaurant with amazing prices, this place is for you! 100% recommend!

This place has to be on your list to visit if ever in Little Italy in Boston Mass. Incredible pizza,so flavourful, the mozzarella tasted like there was Romano mixed in it and it was so delicious. The potato croquette (wow) and the arancini were delicious. No frills kind of place but I was thrilled eating their food.

One of those place that has been probably running for many many generations.
Food keep coming out of the kitchen freshly made and hot.
Super tasty.
We’ve stepped in to get couple Arancini for lunch. Place was quite packed but people gets in and out quickly. Good selection of Italian rotisserie. Arancini are amazing !
Bring cash!!!

Definitely a place to have a quick stop and dig in tasty food .

My grandfather brought me here as a child every summer when I visited. Now my own grown children look forward to visiting when we’re in town. The square pizza, canzone, arancini, & everything is amazing – just as it has been for the 40+ years I’ve been here. Cash only & sells out, so plan accordingly.

Cash Only! Delicious pizza by the slice. Definitely in the top 3 places in the area. Service was fast. The staff seemed on edge, but I’m not shocked because tour groups come in waves. It’s always crowded for good reasons. So expect a long line if you don’t show up early. Overall if your looking for delicious pizza and don’t mind waiting Lin line this is the place to be.

We got the pizza, arancini, and spinach cheese calzone. Pizza has a nice airy crust. Arancini nice and crispy. Calzone was boring. A decent place for quick fast food, not earth shattering

It’s what everyone else says. This place is awesome. If you have the patience, please wait for your Sicilian style slices to cool, because they come out piping hot and will burn the roof of your mouth. Well-priced. These owners take pride in the process and product. Next time I’m in the North End, will get a slice and maybe some arrancini depending on how I feel. Maybe better for takeout on a park bench ’cause that will give the slices some time to cool.
