This might actually just be the Best Pizza in Boston.

Traditional New England style with a chewy thin crust and a bright sauce.

It is delicious, remarkably consistent, and inexpensive. The wife is ALWAYS excited for Pleasant Pizza.

The rest of the food is also great, particularly the weekly specials, but I have a hard time skipping the pizza.

They have pretty good pizza, in a city where most of the pizza is garbage, it was a nice change. The staff is always friendly and helpful even when it’s bonkers in there. If you aren’t familiar with the place and looking to dine in on a Thursday through Saturday I’d give a ring or be prepared to possible wait for a few minutes for a table. It will be worth the wait. It has a nice welcoming comfortable feeling and plenty of interesting photos to observe around the place.

Sorry I have to do this. This place use to be my favorite now. Their getting cheap with the portions. The pizza is paper thin. Customers can tell the difference when yall skim out on portions. I work hard for my money. If u cant give me my moneys worth maybe yall should give up the business. If u order spaghetti and meatballs u only get 2 meatballs. And if u order veal Parma u only get 1 half portion of a cutlet. And no spaghetti just a potato and a soup. For $20. This place is definitely going down hill. Yall had a good run.

I apologize, but I’ve been wanting pizza this whole week, and I saw the reviews . They were spectacular, so I decided to try the pizza. I ordered a buffalo chicken pizza with Drizzle of Ranch. Unfortunately, they blotted it, like it was mozzarella cheese. That made the piece soggy, and the bread was thin. I couldn’t even hold the pizza.

Cuteness all around here! The decor is very cool and the food was quite good, with a very attentive waitress. The bad news is that the acoustics are terrible, making it quite loud when the place is busy.. if you have any hearing sensitivities, this is not the place for you.

This was our first time here. We had the rudest waitress ever! She was so nasty and mean. I honestly hope you have the life you deserve. The pizza and salad were great, but the waitress was -10.

As we were walking out this older waitress was so kind and funny. I told my family, why couldn’t we have had the nice waitress? If we had a decent human being as a waitress I would give 5 stars easy.

We had lunch Saturday Sept 27th around 1:30-3pm. Really crappy waitress. Don’t like your job? Find something new!!!!

I do have to give props to the lady walking around picking up tables! She was the sweetest and kindest human being ever!

If I wasn’t with 6 other people and the 2 weren’t locals, I would have loved to have spoke to a manger!!! Attitude gets attitude. I am still annoyed by that experience.

Pleasant is the perfect word. 5 stars across the board. A welcome break from apps and QR codes; the food and service stands on its own without any digital nonsense. And Denise was a delight!

Haven’t been there for a long time. We ordered a couple of Manhattans and the bartender stirred them instead of shaking which was great. The pizza was great as always & the waitress was great too. The small Antipasto was huge.
