50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Allston

“Large pizza for ~$20, always fast and fresh. Our go-to place for 2 years now bc of the great crust, flavorful pizza, and reliability.

We live neaeby so we often order pickup via UberEats and it's always ready in 10 mins. One time I forgot to order ahead so I walked up to the counter and they were also done in 10 min!

Seating area is limited and quite small and parking is terrible but that's on par for the area lol not their fault. Nowhere to park on this streer but there's 3 towing companies prowling around.“

“Delicious authentic food, very friendly staff. Def worth it!“

“Chariles pizza has an old world ambience and the food transports you back in time when the veggies were fresh and the crust was freshly baked and the pizzas were a delicacy and not an everyday thing. Their marinara sauce is sublime. Charlie is very warm and has a great sense of what someone might like.“

“SON HAD ZERO COMPLAINTS ON HIS ORDER, TOOK ABOUT 20 MINUTES FOR DELIVERY AND WAS STILL HOT…

UPDATE:
MY FOOD WAS DELIVERED NICE AND HOT… BUT YOU NEED TO FOLLOW THE DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS, YOU ALMOST DIDN’T GET PAID… THE DRIVER DID WHAT I SAID NOT TO DO AND LEFT MY SON’S FOOD IN THE LOBBY ON A TABLE… LUCKILY, I POINTED SOMETHING OUT TO HIM ON THE RECEIPT AND HE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE POS… BUT PEOPLE BE STEALING FOOD, SO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS PLEASE.“

“I ordered from here for an office event, and the whole experience was great from start to finish. The staff were friendly and helpful over the phone, and the delivery team was prompt and professional. All of the pizzas were delicious—out of the three we tried (Spinach, Tomato & Feta; Cheese; and Chicken Bacon Ranch), the Chicken Bacon Ranch was definitely the standout for me.“

“Visiting from California and went here for dinner, what a great decision. The owner greeted my wife and I as if we had known him our whole lives. He was extremely helpful and the food was delicious. The portion sizes are HUGE and the price isn't.“

“It matches the hype. The Sicilian Pizza is…perfect. There’s not enough superlatives to do it justice and if there were, even then it wouldn’t reach hyperbole. Craziest thing of it all is the pricing. Four slices, arancini, and a drink for $16.00? How? In today’s economy how are they keeping the price this low? Also amazing. Just go. Don’t think about it, don’t pass go, don’t collect $200…go get your dang perfect slice.“

“The pizza was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Regina's North End“

“Ambiance and ambiance and beer and beer“

“Delicious pizza. One slice is actually two huge slices! Affordable prices. Will visit again.“

“Food was amazing! Happened upon this while touring Boston and loved it so much, we came back the next day for more. Small space, and serve your own drinks, but the food is worth it. We had their garlic bread, burger, fries, baked ziti and pizza.“

“Good tacos good pizza service staff 💯“

“We drove an hour and a half just to try some authentic Puerto Rican food. The tripleta sandwich was the best I've had outside the island, and the rice, beans and pernil were simply amazing. I will definitely make the trip again. Absolutely worth it!“

“Awesome pizza.. huge slice“

“Pizza- MUST TRY ….. was the best wood fire pizza I’ve ever had (even in Italy 🇮🇹😳) the eggplant capers garlic was delicious 😋 the chicken cutlet was also delicious very moist (tender) 😉 and well there’s “salad” 😂
Definitely won’t be disappointed!!!“

“Small hole in the wall but Fire pizza!“

“YUM - AAAYY - ZING!!

Words are insufficient to describe my excitement for Mario’s!!!

I’ll start with THIN CRUST - Classic Neapolitan pizza, ITALIAN style. Then FRESH FRESH FRESH ingredients make all the difference. I look forward to it, whenever I can make it, usually for lunch on Friday, the only week day they’re open at 12:00 noon. Awesome vibe that’s 100% local local local. Small place, mostly take out, but you can seat 3-4 people at the window counter, which I love. Old school marble counter, with comfy padded bar stools. You have to know it’s here as the location is a tad off the beaten path of prime visibility. Which ‘proves’ one of my philosophies ‘ great location, often mehh food, not so great location - the food must be amazing. So many amazing points …. One of which is the ACTUAL MARIO! Punctuating the super local CHEF OWNED cafe. He’s here all the time, super nice guy, a joy to chat with … and he truly loves making incredible pizza!!“

“I was excited to find this restaurant. I am severely allergic to nuts and fish and they are nut and fish free in their Brookline restaurant! The food is delicious, the wait staff are so nice, and I didn’t have to worry about my allergies! Highly recommend.“

“3.5 stars. Enjoyed the everything and margarita. The spinach overpowered the pizza and had a different cheese that wasn't as good. About $5 per slice. Fast service at a busy lunch time. If you order more than 3 slices get a whole pie.“

“Every time I’ve gotten Johnny pockets I get service with a smile and delicious food! I’ve tried multiple different sandwiches and I’ve never been disappointed.“

“Great pizza and staff. Chef worked her buns off. A great sign.“

“The best pizza and sandwich’s around delicious 😋 best customer service when you have an issue with door dash thank so much harry for lunch 🥰“

“I had an amazing experience and can’t wait to go back🥰“

“Great Neapolitan style pizza pop up, I ride miles and miles only to have some at one of the breweries they partner with“

“First time going there and the toasted ravioli, pizza and Nomna’s meatballs were very good. Highly recommend 🍕“

“My 1st experience was great/ friendly and delicious! I’ll be back.“

“Great pizza, great location!“

“Wow what a good meal it was“

“Stopped in on a Thursday night with the family, no reservations, and waited about 35 minutes for a table. Totally worth it.

We ordered two pizzas, the burrata salad, and a charcuterie board, and everything hit the mark. The pizzas were perfectly cooked, great crust and flavor, the burrata was fresh and creamy, and the charcuterie board was exactly what you’d hope for—quality meats and cheeses done right.

Food came out quick, service was friendly and efficient, and the overall vibe was casual but lively.

Bottom line: food was mad good, everyone left happy, and I’d absolutely come back.“

“Great food!! It's a do not miss when I'm working in town, near the Boston Garden!“

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.“

“Best place,great food.Highly recommend 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“Delicious food, great atmosphere. Definitely will be a regular place we go when visiting the area.“

“Imo, Union Square lacks great pizza. Sure, all the Indian joints around here make good pizza. Hotbox is great. However, they all feel like a different pizza experience that isn’t the “classic” pizza I’ve been looking for. For me, Caesar’s hits that mark.

Stopped in for a slice of cheese pizza on a 90 degree day in June. No flop, cheese to sauce ratio was just what I like. Atmosphere feels old school, lots of coke memorabilia, good classics being played over the radio. AC was on and I was enjoying a cold bottle of Mexican Coke. Is this not the ideal atmosphere for consuming pizza??

Owner was focused but friendly. I’ll def be coming back!“

“Fantastic pizza!! The crust is crispy and tender like it should be. Cooked perfectly. The other non-pizza items are ALL great as well. Nice little bar area too serving great drinks.“

“Lived in NYC for many years and became a pizza snob. My wife and I searched for good pizza in Boston for the better part of a year and became addicted to this place. Sauce is delicious and flavorful. Crispy crust, tasty pepperoni. Just an awesome pizza. Bravo.“

“Yesterday was the first time we tried the pizza at Pizzeria Enzina...Wow... and we are so glad we did. My husband and son ordered a calmelized onion and red pepper version and I tried the vegan veggie pizza. We were thrilled at how delicious each slice was and we loved everything, from the taste of the dough to the generous amount of toppings and how incredible the vegan cheese on mine tasted so amazing...yes my husband and son both swiped slices of mine... it was that good. So happy we found you Enzina....my new favorite ....can't wait to try other dishes and the canoli too!!! We are so grateful for such a wonderful meal!!“

“First time in Nee England and my buddy joined a bowling league. So I told him lets go and I’ll just chill at the bar. This place is awesome! Great flatbread, great beer and great service! If I’m ever up this way again I’m for sure making a stop here.“

“We had a fantastic experience at Prince Pizzeria! Our soccer team celebrated the end of the season here, and everything was perfect. The food was delicious, the service was friendly and attentive, and they went above and beyond to make us feel special—even welcoming our team on the sign out front! It was the perfect spot for our celebration. Highly recommend for groups and family gatherings!“

“Best pizza in Waltham Crew was efficient and friendly Love papa ginos“

“I have been coming here for the last year. Every time I come back I find myself in a better mood than when I came in. Shop is clean, staff are genuinely great people. The food is consistently tasty and reasonably priced. My son and I are big fans. When we arrived home we were pleasantly surprised to find an extra slice of pizza. I dont always write reviews but after today's visit I just had to share my feelings. 👍👍
Don't hesitate, order something you won't regret it!“

“There is no better way to describe this other than Amazing. I have visited this place in the morning, daytime, or even at night and they never disappoint. The most warm hearted and welcoming staff and the owner is the most hospitable person ever. The cherry on top was when I urgently needed a couple of pizzas for a small office pizza Friday lunch party and I ordered it the evening before. Although they open at 11 they brought me the food along with delivery on time with to the door service. The pizza was still very warm and it was sooo good that a person that wanted to take leftovers home couldn't find a single slice by the end of the shift 😂. The Meatlover Pizza was the star people ADORED it. The freshness of the meat and the dough were an amazing combo. The margarita blew everyone away as well That day I also ordered Lule between bread for myself and let me tell you that is their specialty. The meat was so juicy and tender and you gotta sprinkle some sumakh. I always read reviews of this place and they are like where is their non pizza menu? I couldn't tell you that but all you need to do is ask. They have a variety of options and all of the meat is Halal. This place despite being small is so popular that they are packed a lot of the time during the day. That's why I'm pretty sure they are expanding, as they should. If you need catering for a small, medium, or large event they will have your back as well. I got to know them through an unrelated event where they catered for a 100 person event and that taste still lingers on my taste buds. Bottom line is don't be fooled by the old negative reviews. This place is booming and as long as you're friendly and hungry they will not disappoint.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ high recommended The best pizza in town“

“As a visiting New Yorker, I think I know what a good slice is and this spot hits it spot on. Old school, nyc around the way type of regular slice. Taste is on point all that’s missing is the old school fruit punch rolling around in the machine. I’d def try this again!“

“I've never left a google review in my life but I cannot speak more highly of this place.

I made a big mistake about a catering order I placed 2 hours before an event that my nonprofit was holding. I spoke to who I assume was the owner of the restaurant and he was SO kind and accommodating. He created a catering order for me that he knew would feed the amount of guests at the event and due to my confusion (which was entirely my fault), without hesitation he offered to have it delivered to the event even though the restaurant does not deliver. I am certain that the amount of food definitely cost more than the amount that he charged me. He also offered to throw in free cookies after I shared we are a nonprofit. Not only was all of his kindness greatly appreciated by our organization but after the event ended, multiple attendees expressed how delicious the food was. One asked where the chicken alfredo was from so they could go get some themselves!! We have never received a post-event email about the food before!!

Much gratitude for your kindness and delicious food.“

“My daughter and I love this place and we are always welcomed with a hearty hello. Even when we aren’t going in, the guys always wave when we walk by and have become a fixture in the neighborhood over the last year. The pizza is delicious and they have some delicious combos. I highly recommend a try!“

“I am a self-proclaimed pizza snob and generally only enjoy NY-style pizza, but Royal Pizza & Subs makes an excellent pizza that rivals what I grew up eating. The sauce was perfectly seasoned, the sauce-to-cheese ratio was ideal, and the pepperoni was high quality. The medium-thickness crust was slightly different from NY-style pizza, but so delicious that I didn’t mind one bit! (It was a bit softer and chewier than what I’m used to, and I didn’t notice any semolina flour on the bottom.) My spouse doesn’t usually eat the crust, but we both finished every last bit of our slices! The pizza was a little greasy because of the generous portion of pepperoni, but who would complain about that?! Nothing a few napkins can’t fix!

The staff were super friendly and the service was great: our pizza was ready so quickly! The prices were also extremely reasonable for the amount and quality of food. I am so happy that this restaurant is so close to home: it’s going to become a regular place for us to eat at! We only tried the pepperoni pizza last night, but I can’t wait to try the rest of the menu. If you’re in Somerville, don’t miss the chance to eat here!“

“Coming from Vegas where good pizza is scarce, we couldn’t have enjoyed this fresh traditional style pizza more! And they had tons of toppings and recipes to choose from. We wish our bellies were bigger to enjoy the sandwiches and pastas too. We will definitely return if we make it back to this side of the country again. And the staff was very friendly allowing our family to feel very welcome“

“Favorite new pizza spot of the area!! Has the traditional style of New London style pizza, slightly greasy but not overly so, fresh baked, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. Highly recommend the mushroom and hamburger pizza, as well as the Greek style. While they may not have the Wood-Fired pizza options that you might get at some other pizza places in Cambridge, you get really traditional Pizza. That is just really tasty and a really good value.

Also, while they are on delivery apps, always try to go in person if you were in the neighborhood as it is hard work to be a pizza place in this city!“

“I really loved the food here! Their pizzas and calzones are just amazing and totally worth trying. They have it all, subs, wraps, fried chicken… and oh, the fried chicken wings tossed in buffalo sauce are absolutely mouth‑watering! They even have slices to go. Definitely coming back here again!“
