Conotto style and square slices. This is probably the best pizza in Boston, from a very short list. If you like true Neapolitan pizza, this is the place. Great ingredients and well fermented dough. Few places come close.
Ok, this is a tricky review. On the one hand, this place has a lot of promise and some things on the menu are incredibly good. I’ve eaten there twice and have sampled a large amount of the menu. I would highly recommend the garlic bread and the meatball calzone, and the pizzas that lean more towards cheese are good like the pepperoni. The Sfagliotela pizza was also great. Generally, they have very good pizza crust and a good oven and they know how to use it.
BUT
It should be a crime to add so many wet, uncooked vegetables to a pizza. If you order any of the pizzas with broccoli on them, be prepared to eat what is essentially a giant pile of steamed, unseasoned broccoli on top of very thin wet bread. I would specifically call out both the “mushroom” and “soppressata” pizzas for this. The soppressata pizza, despite technically containing the titular ingredient, was 90% broccoli, with no seasoning. The pizzas became so wet they were essentially disintegrating and dripping with water. Also, both these pizzas are supposed to have cheese on them, but I couldn’t find the cheese under the giant pile of steamed broccoli. I’m not sure they should be allowed to call that pizza and it was borderline inedible.
So the question is, how do you rate a restaurant where half the menu is excellent and half the menu feels like a terrible mistake? I’m going with three stars because I feel like they can salvage their menu with some changes to the toppings.

Second time here. Initially came for the pizza rated as one of the best, but had more. This time sampled the white bean dip, peach salad and eggplant pizza. So many flavors going on, loved every bite. If you're a foodie, a treat for sure.

Great pizza, i recommend the mushroom pizza, the pesto on it was the kicker. Great crust, light and chewy. Not sure if they use sour dough for the crust but it was a nice touch of flavor.

We were served warm water to start, which unfortunately set the tone for the rest of the meal.
Service was poor — the waitstaff didn’t know the menu, couldn’t answer basic questions, and barely checked in on us.
The peach salad was a mess: overly dressed, tasted like canned peaches, and came with just two tiny pieces of prosciutto. At $16, it felt like a joke.
The pizza, which should’ve been the highlight, was undercooked, floppy, and bland. No seasoning, no flavor, no excuse.
Overall, this place misses the mark on the basics. Won’t be going back.
The food here was pretty good for pizzas, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was great, and the menu was a good length. The one catch was that the pizzas were very flat with a huge crust, leaving them not as filling as one would like, and they came cut in four slices, which makes them less shareable. Overall a good experience though.
