Friendly and patient staff. Service was fast and would 100% visit again!

Two tables inside that seat 3 each. You'll probably do takeout here.

Parking can be tough. No restrooms that we saw.“

“Best pizza I've had in Boston“

“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.“

“Small place, but incredible pizza.
We were looking for a quick bite and
were blown away by how good it actually was.
High-level ingredients and perfectly cooked.
More for pick up or delivery
but definitely will recommend this pizzeria.“

“Pizza is really good and both appetizers we shared were delicious, enough for 6 people.

Why I wasnt a big fan of this place:
1. My white wine wasnt very chilled and my friend’s paloma cocktail wasnt a hit.
2. And before it has been 1.5 hours even they just brought the check to the table which is kind of a mood killer for me.
3. When I asked to get black pepper for the pizzas, one waiter said we dont have it…. then a few minutes later it was brought in a little dish - how do you not have peppper in a pizza restaurant?“

“Awesome pizza.. huge slice“

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

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

“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.“

“Family had dinner at Stoked in Cohasset last weekend….what a great meal! Pizzas were SO delicious, as were the Greek and Caesar salads. House wines were really good. Children loved their meals too. Our server was terrific, fun and attentive. An overall perfect experience…casual and delicious!! It was a little quiet when we went, but it was early. Can’t imagine this local gem will be quiet very often! We’ll all be back ! Nana from Hingham“

“My favorites include deep dish pizza, chicken salad sub, roast beef sub, and spinach pie.“

“The Chef’s were really well receiving, and they made haste freshly of our order. Great quality customer service, very nice and welcoming atmosphere.

The food was excellent, and it was all fresh, only took 10 minutes.

The menu was very extensive, and all the options looked really good, we just got a ZaZa pizza (garlic, olive oil and basil) and a meat lovers pizza. The food was timely and very good.“

“5/29/26
Lunch
Our group of 6 was treated to an amazing lunch at Prince's today.
Thank you Mr Castraberti and Staff! You all made our day!!
We had the Mushroom and Sauceech Pizza, Veal Parm, Eggplant Parm, Fried Chicken Sandwich... I did the Side of Angel Hair with 1 Sauceech and 1 Meatball. The sauce is Amazing!! Fresh, Homemade, San Maranzano Tomatoes make it sweet. Just like I've had in Italy.
5 Stars!“

“Everytime we are in the area, Pino's is our go to. Even if we go out to another restaurant, we get a Pino's Pizza to take home. The best pizza around.“

“Food is great!“

“I came here, buzzing, after a show at the Sinclair tonight and they were open Monday late night so I got 3 slices of goodness, except...it was greatness...the mushroom & onion slices are so primo, munchies heaven, and the whole team is on point. Really great pizzas here with lots of skill added...“

“Small hole in the wall but Fire pizza!“

“The best pizza in Boston!“

“Amazing find - not far from TD Gardens. Just a few small tables inside, but well worth sitting in and enjoying the delicious brick-oven pizza fresh from the oven. Also had a cappuccino and a cannoli - both great! Highly recommend!“

“Had an awesome meal here! We ordered the Polpette Sandwich, Salsiccia Pizza, and the Bianco, and honestly, they were all amazing. The Bianco pizza stole the show—it was perfectly cooked, cheesy, and bursting with flavor. The staff is super friendly, making the whole experience feel warm and inviting. The vibe of the place is casual and fun, perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends or family. Everything felt fresh, tasty, and just done right. I can’t recommend it enough if you love good pizza, friendly service, and a chill spot to hang out. We’ll definitely be back soon to try even more from the menu!“

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

“This restaurant is what the definition of a hidden gem is. The food is fresh, delicious, exactly what you look for in a great slice of pizza. They have many options, including burgers and subs, which all are made fresh to order as well. The prices are also reasonable, but what makes it stand out more are the specials they have which make the meals 10x more affordable for a solid
meal. It’s truly wonderful to see a place that actually cares about the people for once. But then the service stands out most to me, the people are the kindest, always accommodating, never rushing me to finish my meal, and making sure I feel welcomed and acknowledged at all times. They treat everyone as a community, which I think should happen more often. Everyone is welcome there and they make sure of it. I definitely recommend coming here, you will fall in love with it!“

“My experience today was amazing - Nicole was so helpful with ordering and our friends received a delicious hot meal with more than enough for a second meal. Thank you all for taking such good care of our request!“

“Independently-owned neighborhood joint. Incredibly warm, welcoming, friendly owner. I love that it’s right across the street from the library. Can’t beat $3 for a flavorful cheese slice, delectable crust! Eggplant parm’s great too. Always hits the spot! 😊“

“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.“

“There good is amazing & I can’t get over their chicken wingsss 💕💕💕“

“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 🥰“

“the food was fresh outstanding! You must try it“

“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.“

“Food and service are excellent!“

“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.“

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

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

“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 went to the pizzeria after a long day in Malden. Right as you walked in the door you could tell they had good quality food. There were about five tables for people to sit at. Each one has at least four seats. The table and seats were clean and there was no food or leftover crumbs on the table. The staff were nice and the food got to us in less than ten minutes. I got the ziti meatballs, and they were really good. I also got a small plate of fries to go with it. The food was delicious and I definitely recommend going there if you are floating around Malden.“

“The food is great! Definitely try the corn pizza. However don't bother calling ahead or asking for the wait time. We called ahead and still had to wait 60 minutes. It isn't really their fault, a table that was finished with their food sat and chatted for 50 minutes.“

“Passion and love is what I got when I came to this Dedham location. Nothing but A+ service from beginning to end. Nadege was so inviting, pleasant and patient when my family and I were trying to figure out what we wanted to order. To add the cheery on top of course after washing her hands and changing her gloves she put the most L-O-V-E in our subs, OMG🙌🏾 the best I’ve EVER tasted in a long time!
Now the pizza that Joanne made was superb!! All in all this experience here was today was great joy, haven’t been here in awhile but will be returning soon💙“

“Great food and great staff.“

“The restaurant had a cool relaxed vibe with a very interesting decor. We ate at the bar. Bartender was very attentive and offered great recommendations. Our pizza was great! Ordered the espresso martini to cap off the evening. It was out of this world great!“

“Arams absolutely hit the spot after a late flight into Boston. Only a few spots were open and walkable from my hotel, and I’m stoked I picked here. This is everything you want in a no-frills, by-the-slice, basic pizza joint. Would absolutely visit again!“

“Melt in your mouth delicious roast beef sandwich!!“

“Had such a great experience at Papa Gino’s in Stoneham! My mom and I ordered a large cheese pizza and a small breadstick, and everything came out fresh, hot, and delicious. What really made the visit stand out though was the service. Anthony was absolutely amazing. He was friendly, attentive, and went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. It’s rare to come across service like that these days. Definitely coming back again soon!“
