They say they’re open until 10 on Sundays, so I called ahead around 9:30. The two people working seemed annoyed we ordered that late, which makes me wonder why they’re open until 10 if a 9:30 order is a problem. The pizza was barely cooked and I had to finish it in my own oven, which kind of defeats the point of getting a ready-made meal. Won’t be returning!

Tiny pizza shop in Cambridge. Cash only but they have an ATM inside.
We ordered three slices of the Sicilian and a large half pepperoni and half pineapple pizza. The pizza was great. Love the taste of the bread and also the quality of the pepperoni was great. The Sicilian pizza was good but not as good as the pepperoni/pineapple.
We’ll be coming back as this was an overall great dinner.

I was greeted by the owner as I walked in. Very friendly and helpful. I had a couple of slices of pizza, which were very generous in size,and a soda to eat there. The pizza was delicious with a crust that was very tasty and had a nice crispy crunch to it. I would absolutely recommend trying this pizza to everyone!!

The pizza was below average–definitely not worth the wait or the money. The man running the place was dismissive and seemed to take customers for granted. It’s disappointing to see this attitude from a so-called “neighborhood pizza” spot. We will not order from them again.

I’ve been wanting to try this ever since I saw it on tik tok. Best pizza I’ve had since visiting the Boston area. Staff is friendly and feels like family. Everyone person that walked in was greeted with a smile. I ordered half tray of Sicilian and a greek salad. I will be back again when I visit.

This is one of those rare gems you find tucked away in a little neighborhood a little off the beaten path but right next to the bus stop. This family owned restaurant has been around for 51 years! Armando passed the place down to his daughter and you will often find her son Mike (see photo) behind the counter making the pizzas and subs. If you dine in you might be surprised at how many people he knows on a first name basis. But unlike so many local places you will feel like family even if you are from out of town or even out of state! We had the Sicilian pizza and it was a perfect balance between thick crust and yet still had that crispy crust. The chicken parmesan sandwich was also a hit providing not just dinner but lunch the next day because it was so big! We also had the classic Italian sub, antipasto, and the pasta fagioli soup. Go prepared they only take cash but they do have an ATM machine on-site if you forget.

Really delicious cash only joint. After months of Domino’s, we thought we would try Armando’s. With a modest self-proclaim to fame ‘Best Pizza in West Cambridge’, we were encouraged by the locality of their claim. And we were not disappointed. Totally delicious and piping hot pizza with respectable pizza bubbles only obtained from a hot oven.
Its cash only, but they have a not so shady (maybe a 3 on the shade meter) ATM on the inside.

Cambridge has great Pizza and this is one of my two favorite places. Not only does it have a local-and-loved feel to it, they are legitimately involved in the community. The pizza is excellent (especially the crust) and service is quick. Came here on a Sunday and had to get an extra slice, as everyone from the neighborhood came through the door to pick up their pies. Bring cash!

BEWARE. Prior to this review, I had given Armando‘s five stars however today I ordered six slices of Sicilian pizza not realizing that and I quote from the owner. I would’ve got more pizza for less money if I got a half sheet but he took it upon himself to make sure I paid more for less .
This place is out to rob you. They don’t care about their customers. They just want their money.
