If you’re in Salem, MA, Gennaro’s is a must-try! The pizza is absolutely incredible—perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and clearly made with a lot of care. The crust has that perfect balance of crispy and chewy, the toppings are fresh, and every bite is delicious.
What really stood out to me was the quality and flavor. It’s the kind of pizza that makes you want to come back before you’ve even finished your first slice!

Came back to the east coast after multiple years and this feels like the old school cutlets my family used to make. Top notch true Italian chicken cutlets. Owner is super friendly too!!!
We ordered two subs for our first visit, excited because GCC boasts a solid 5 star. Visually very good and thin cutlets, which is a win. One star below their average review because the chicken cutlets were overcooked and I'd say hovering into a almost burnt category, but I'll give 4 because overall still solid. As a result, this took away from the overall wow factor, these could have been fab. Maybe my experience was a one off? If/when I return, I'll follow up.
