50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Charlestown

“We got their lunch special and the pizza was delicious! It’s super thick so you probably won’t need as many slices as you think lol. The orange line pizza is great and so is the pepperoni. This is not just your average pepperoni pizza - there’s a special sauce that tastes awesome!

Dietary restrictions: They have vegan and dairy free ice cream that’s actually good!“

“Yalllll ….. this pizza joint is amazing. We landed in Boston on a Saturday night and were desperate to find a place to eat. We parked in front and the smell of the pizza was mouthwatering.

Super friendly guys!!!

The meat lovers pizza was SUPER delicious & the Greek salad we ordered was great.
The brownies were bomb!!

Clearly it’s a local fave bc they were pretty busy but quick and timely.? worth the flight from Texas lol“

“Honestly, I have eaten at a lot of domino’s and I have to say this domino’s in Charlestown is by far one of the best domino’s I have ordered from. I would definitely recommend this domino’s especially if you are not a fan of the franchise. They definitely perfected cooking there food. It’s well done and presented great.“

“Ambiance and ambiance and beer and beer“

“Great Italian food. Felt like I was back in Italy eating Street Food. Amazing Quick, Cheap and delicious!“

“The most amazing authentic Italian pizza and a hidden gem. Excellent value for money. A must visit if in Boston.“

“We visited from Austin and had to try it out before the Celts game, loved it so much we went back the next day as well! Great pizza, great convo with staff, great atmosphere.“

“Wonderful food. Welcome to Stoneham and the montvale plaza!“

“Awesome pizza.. huge slice“

“The Buffalo Chicken Calzone at O’Cheese Pizza is a bold and flavorful delight. Packed with juicy buffalo chicken, gooey melted cheese, and a tangy buffalo sauce, it delivers the perfect mix of heat and creaminess in every bite. The hospitality of the staff, led by the welcoming owner, Will, made the experience even better —they clearly take pride in their food and customer care, which shines through every detail.“

“Pleasant staff, hard working and they care about the product they serve. Chopped Cheese was hittin !! Passion Fruit drinks were tasty. Reminded me of being back in NY. I recommend this spot !!

Parking: Lots of options for parking on the street“

“very good ! everyone was so nice . I will be back soon !“

“Best eggplant I’ve ever had. Thin, crispy. Loaded with mozzarella. Awesome homemade sauce. And the bread was delicious, too. Portion was extremely generous and less than $15! Cool little spot in Cambridge that I hope to go back to someday.“

“Small hole in the wall but Fire pizza!“

“I came here late night on a Saturday and enjoyed a slice of Pepperoni Pizza. It was SO TASTY. My favorite style pizza and it did not disappoint. It was very busy inside but I was in and out with a hot slice within 5 minutes. Pizza lovers, you have to try Joe’s!!“

“My fiancé and I have been ordering here for over a year. It is the best pizza in quincy and the surrounding area. (and we’ve tried quite a few pizza spots) Fresh and authentic tasting and the staff are good people. Plus they’re open until 11! I’d recommend 10/10“

“Great pizza an salad plus awesome non alcoholic drinks !“

“The ice cream had the most perfect texture I’ve tried in all around Boston (and I eat a lot of ice cream)
The vanilla swirl is a tad too sweet for me for the whole scoop, but if you like decadent, it’s insanely delicious.
The ube is much better than Trader Joe’s and I’d recommend trying it if you like ube
The passion fruit is spot on!✨ no words to describe it other than pure bliss (I love passion fruit overall). It’s not too sour and has no seed which gives it a uniform texture. The taste is a balanced tang with floral top notes and “true to fruit” taste.
Service was awesome - the gentleman gave me many flavours to try and was very attentive.
I will def be back for the pizza!“

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

“I was in the mood for sweet sauce… I ordered a small with extra cheese and extra mushrooms. Matt greeted me, cashier was so sweet, told them this was my first time at this location- I always went to Lawrence and Salisbury. I got home and was sad - their version of sweet sauce is not my cup of tea and that’s okay. The mushrooms were huge and fresh, cheese all bubbly… crust literally as good/may be better than Alexander’s- Lexington… I called, he was understanding and apologized, I said, no need to - I mentioned - Beverly - he literally finished the sentence with me #WickedPizzaUsesGrapeJelly lol .. anyways - there is a credit - looking FWD to trying out something else. I read many reviews, and it’s a toss up between cheese steak extra mushrooms or the 3-way roast beef medium.
Thanks again Matt! Too often when the customers call - there is a total attitude - like God forbid this person call me back.
Thanks again“

“I've lived in the area for years and had never been until a few weeks ago. Now it's becoming my go to sit down pizza joint. Great food, amazing friendly staff, and an awesome atmosphere.

Vegetarian options: Lots of options to choose from and the vegetarian pizza is the best in the area

Parking: Tons of parking on the side

Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly“

“Great pizza, great location!“

“I don’t go anywhere else when we want take out. They have the best pockets, pizza and sides! The broccoli cheddar bites are my favorite. I highly recommend!!“

“The best Gluten Free pizza!! The whole party loved their pizza, but for those that know how hard it is to find a really good GFree pizza- this is the place!“

“Delicious approach and amazing pizza! Service was spectacular!“

“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.“

“Amazing food and great, friendly service! The funghi pizza is the best I’ve ever had!“

“A great lunch spot or cheap take out. Can’t say much about delivery, but ordering in person we have had good experiences. Pizza is so crispy and the ingredient choices makes the experience so fun. Salads kinda suck, half half option is healthy but the salads honestly are not great. Pizza is delicious at a great price, never disappoints.“

“I live a long way from this store, but one night I paid an Uber to deliver the pizza in the photos. I don’t know how else to tell you, but this was the most delicious food I have ever eaten. It was like Heaven in a box. I couldn’t believe how tasty it was. Just thinking about how good it was makes me want to order another one. This store is open late and this particular pizza was thick pan, with a decadent selection of cheese, pineapple slices, perfectly cooked chunks of high quality bacon, topped with a nice drizzle of hot honey. It was like when Guy Fieri says flavor town. Just an explosion of magnificent flavors. God bless the person who made this pie. They deserve a big raise lol I couldn’t recommend this place more; this is the best pizza I’ve eaten in 46 years!“

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

“They sell amazing dairy free pizzas that are baked in a wood fire oven and the hostess staff and manager are super nice! Plus they also have a bowling alley with a bar too.

Dietary restrictions: Good place for vegans and people who have dairy allergies because they sell dairy free pizza“

“very kind and friendly staff, delicious gluten free vegan falafel pizza and gluten free vegan cheese marinara pizza with fresh tomatoes topping“

“A little over $10 for 2 slices and a soda that’s an amazing deal. I haven’t had any really good pizza ever since coming to Boston since I’m from NY, but this place is legit. It’s a little hidden and tucked in a not so easy to find spot, but definitely worth the visit!!“

“Very good pizza, especially the pepperoni one, we were very well served by Gigi, very friendly and attentive.
The only thing that bothered us a little was the hostess, a bald guy with glasses, who welcomed us at the entrance to the restaurant, seemed uncomfortable with our presence, constantly looking at our table suspiciously. We were dressed the same as everyone else and our behavior was the same as everyone else there, so I really don't know what the reason was.
Other than that, great service and good food.“

“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.“

“This used to be the best pizza place in town until they started using tasteless fake cheese. Real cheese is supposed to melt and not feel like rubber. I put it in the oven and it boiled and burned. So disappointing and disgusting. Please bring the REAL cheese back.“

“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!“

“One of the better slices of pizza I've had in my life and the same can be said for the chicken ceasar wrap. Portion sizes and taste are pretty much unbeatable for the price in Boston- 10/10. The guy behind the counter when I grabbed my food was also super nice.“

“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!“

“Was a Boston resident for 60 years , moved to central Mass 6 years ago , still cannot find a really good pizza like the ones from Boston but I can honestly say whenever I head back there I'm usually stopping to grab a pie before I head back home and and I've got a thermal insulated bag , it's still hot enough to eat without having to reheat in the oven , highly recommend you give it a try but everyone has their own preferences , hope you like it as much as I do“

“Backwoods pizza is one of the last few quality pizza shops & community merchants. When you walk in you feel the family owned spirit behind Backwoods Pizza.
The recent facelift is the spark behind this review on a WFH day pickup of the Monday special. What I dug the most was the branding from memento to the modern, by keeping / replicating a piece of the original signage. while waiting for my always evenly baked pizza, small talk about the construction and changes. Noting when buildings have murals on them before demolition, pieces like the Mandela Mural on Warren can be replicated & relocated or included in remodels, w/ all the tech now, we LOL . Oh yes, they are also “ in tech “ with the times. ?. Payment options are clear and even doing reviews like this are just a click of your camera screen . Its the small things that make a big difference for pride in community. Like a small family owned & local employer of a neighborhood pizza shop shows. As the owner said “ Connecting the Past to the Future”

Kid-friendliness: Local pizza shop , pause in between the rush, chill atmosphere even when busy

Wheelchair accessibility: Accommodating staff and door way.“

“Great addition to Somerville! We stopped in and had a glass of wine at the counter while we waited for our pizzas to go. I love woodfired pizza and these did not disappoint. We had the Prosciutto di Parma and the Pollo both absolutely delicious. Very inviting atmosphere with fast and friendly service.“

“500 Ocean is a beautiful property with some amazing amenities. It is in a great location, surrounded by ocean views, restaurants and very accessible to the T, literally right below the building. My husband and I had a great experience living here and had rarely any issues. The main issue we had at move-in was addressed and we were even offered a small gift for the inconvenience. I love the maintenance staff and they are always so pleasant and helpful. One of my favorite parts of living here was having an in-house fitness coach/ personal trainer- Cienna Jade! She is so amazing to work with and has really helped me along my fitness journey. It was so convenient having her come to the 500 Ocean gym, which is one of the best gyms I've seen in an apartment home. She conducts 1 on 1 sessions and will literally work with you on scheduling a time that's convenient for you as well as offering group or couple sessions! Overall, very pleasant experience!“

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

“steak and cheese and onion and lots of mayonnaise“

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

“Great pizza an salad plus awesome non alcoholic drinks !“

“I've never ever eaten Pizza like theirs. Is not very thick, not thin either, absolutely perfect and extraordinary in taste. I would recommend veggie and margarita pizzas here. It's just hand made with love, tastes like. I never knew before that pizzas can be made this much delicious. Five out of five !!!

Vegetarian options: Margarita and veggie“
