“We ran into this place on complete accident. Amazing staff and food! 🍕 Highly recommend! Go pack go! 🧀“

“I went for the first time earlier this week, and I thought it was great! Firstly they were very gracious about my indecisiveness on where I wanted to sit, and allowed me to switch tables. Twice. The bev list had a solid selection of natural wines from some of my favorite producers, but I ended up ordering a glass of one I've never tried before - a skin contact Carricante which matched nicely with the light char on our pizza. The food was fresh and vibrant, our server was attentive and engaging (sorry hun, I forgot your name, even though I asked a couple times, but you deserve a shout-out). Long story short, I went in hungry and slightly grumpy, I left happy and with a satisfied stomach.“

“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!!“

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

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

“The best chicken parm pocket i ever had in my life…Very clean place and the best customer service very friendly 💜“

“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!“

“Wow what a good meal it was“

“Worth a trip on the T to JP just for this pizza. Small place with 3 stools to sit so grab your pizza and find somewhere to eat it. Got the Salsiccia pizza and the pesto sauce was delicious and pizza was cooked well. no soggy slice. It was a 15ish minute wait“

“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.“

“Great pizza, great location!“

“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 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.“

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

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Their steak tips are on point along with their buffalo chicken.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“Without any doubt, 5 out of 5 stars ?!

I recently had one of the most, if not the most, delicious pizzas in my life at Pizza By Rocco in Natick, Mass. Even though it may be considered a hidden gem, I doubt it will be considered a hidden gem for much longer as more and more people hear about it and try the food out for themselves!

Each time I have introduced a friend to Rocco's, every single one of them has said that this is some of the best pizza they've ever had.

The crust has that sweet thin crispy taste, and is cooked to perfection. The sauce always has just the right amount and also has a great taste. The toppings are always fresh, more than generous with the amount given, and expertly balanced. In fact, the pizzas and all of the food items in general are more than generous in terms of how much you're getting. In terms of ambiance, although the store is small it still has an inviting and cozy feel to it, and offers some seating outside. Last but certainly not least, the service is no doubt top shelf service. Everyone here is very friendly, attentive, and lightning-fast with their food preparation. Carol, who takes the orders, legitimately sets the very warm and welcoming tone right away with her effortless affability and enthusiastic aura and smile. Red, the pizza/food maker, is a master at his craft and is very personable too. As one can tell simply by the quality of the food, it is clear to see that Red takes his work seriously and is proficient at his job. All of the people who prepare the food here put their strongest efforts into the process; this is food that is made from a place of sincere love!

Rocco himself is at the shop quite often and he goes above and beyond with regards to looking out for his customers. This aspect was something that truly stood out to me about this place and sets Pizza By Rocco above all the rest for me personally. For example, Rocco is very genuine, and is an incredibly generous person and that generosity spills over into his work. His genuine personality is noticeable right away when you meet him. If a customer has any issue with anything, he makes sure to do whatever it takes to ensure said customer is taken care of and leaves the shop happy and satisfied. Not every store owner makes it a point to do things like that. It just goes to show that Rocco and his fellow workers really care about their customers, which is probably why the store has so many repeat and loyal customers.

The menu has your usual favorites/go-to items, but also has some fun and creative specialty options as well. The Buffalo Chicken thin crust pizza is extremely popular and a must try favorite! One of the specialty options that made a great impression on me was the "Typical Johnny," which can best be described as literally a "Big Mac" on a pizza. The only difference is that the Typical Johnny is even better and tastier than an actual Big Mac!

I cannot stress enough how much I recommend Pizza by Rocco for all the pizza lovers out there, and for those who like to support local businesses. I had such a great experience there that I have been back a bunch of times since my first visit. If you come here to try it out, I can guarantee you that you will be coming back for more. It is just *that* good!

Thank you very much Pizza By Rocco for providing me with such a wonderful and extraordinary experience each time I come to your shop! This place is easily one of my favorite places to go. There really is no better pizza around. Keep up the incredible work guys!

“This was my first experience with Blaze Pizza, and it was fantastic. The build your own pizza option was ideal for group of friends out shopping and enjoying Boston. The original crust is perfectly thin and crispy and tasted freshly made. You get to choose your own sauce and they have many options. I got the creamy white sauce base with mozzarella, grilled chicken, black olives, roasted broccoli, and mushrooms. It was so good and was 6 reasonably sized slices. I brought half of mine home. You’d think a custom made pizza would take awhile, but it didn’t. The pizza oven was right in front so you could see your pizza cooking. They have a few dessert options, but we were too full to try any. I do think the s’mores pie would have been gooey perfection with just a few seconds in the pizza oven. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“I recently dined at Land of Fire in Boston, and it was a fantastic experience! The kebabs were incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of seasoning. The doner was equally impressive—juicy and satisfying. The variety of dishes offered ensured there was something for everyone, all served fresh and hot. The ambiance was inviting, and Hido, the owner, truly adds to the experience with his warm hospitality. I highly recommend Land of Fire to anyone craving delicious Middle Eastern cuisine!“

“The sub was amazing one of the best I’ve had in years and I’m from New York you would think we in Philly“

“Hands down the best in Davis. Don't think twice about going to eat here! 10/10 atmosphere 10/10 staff 10/10 food 10/10 drinks Don't believe me? Go and see for yourselves! :)“

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

“Amazing pizza, perfect crust, and friendly service! My top choice for a pizza night.“

“Charissa was great! Super helpful! I placed the call close to closing time. Charissa was who took my order. She had mentioned that she will get the team to help and get the order completed. I got there and the food was ready and Charissa was very welcoming & efficient. I love my papa Gino’s !“

“At Dirty Water Dough Company, we indulged in a delightful pizza feast. The small Margherita pizza had a fresh, simple flavor with just the right amount of basil. The large veggie pizza was packed with a variety of toppings, providing a hearty and satisfying bite. The veggie sandwich was a nice contrast, offering fresh ingredients and a well-balanced texture. The highlight was definitely the Garlic Cheesy Bread—crispy, cheesy, and flavorful, with a perfect kick of garlic. A great spot for pizza lovers!

“The toasted Italian was great“

“Way to go! Incredible Detroit Style Pizza for dinner tonight. Delicious and very different anything else in town. Great job!“

“It’s been almost 10 years since I last ate here but I remember this place fondly. It had the best pizza price/value. There was a blizzard, everything was closed. This place was open. Loved Arams. If I ever get to visit Cambridge again, I’ll have to visit this place“

“Wonderful food, perfect ambiance and amazing staff! Robin was an incredible waitress and gave great recommendations while charming our kids. We all got something different and all meals were delicious. We wish we lived closer so we could come back often!“

“Sammy's has consistently proven their dedication to having excellence not only in superb quality of food but outstanding and courteous customer service, whether I'm stopping in after work for a full meal, or cruising by at 1:30 a.m. for a quick slice Sammy's consistency to delivering exceptional food never changes. The pizza is a refreshing mix between a New York style, with a very strong New Haven crust, the chicken is always fresh super juicy very crispy and has an underlying kick and flavor to it that is absolutely exceptional. I have ordered online I've stopped in and ordered in person in either way I am always met with satisfaction and surprise in the quality of the food that Sammy's delivers.
My only critique is I wish they had a chicken bacon ranch in the slice rack when I come in.

I genuinely believe Sammy's can go toe to toe with any pizza place in the area and I would even say that their absolute dedication to consistency blows almost anyone else out of the water“

“Nick’s is super yummy every time. It’s obvious that the ingredients are high quality and there’s care put into every single thing made. The owners John and Nick show they care and are super friendly. My kids say it’s the best pizza they’ve had in the area.

Dietary restrictions: I had to order gluten free for myself and the owner told me he personally tried all of the GF options before serving them. He was right, the crust was super yummy and crunchy.“

“Wow, if you like the best of the best in Craft beer, you gotta stop by, grabbed the garlic knots too, they were delicious...“

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

“This is my absolute staple pizza shop. Friendly and fast service, delicious food, and convenient placement! I come here often and the staff always makes me smile! I would recommend Lisa's to anyone, and in fact I've taken many friends here for a quick and wholesome bite.“

“Delicious, fresh original pizza! Enjoyed every bite!“

“Great pizza. Great family owned business for generations. Louis is part of the community and has been for a long time. Pizza is cooked all the way through. Sauce is consistent. It’s been the same since my first slice about 40 years ago. Atmosphere is for take out. It’s not a dine in type of place.“

“I am sitting in the parking lot eating a chicken Cesar salad wrap after a 12 hour day and it is a 10 out of 10. Thank you guys so much!

Parking: Parking is free and there is plenty in the lot if not next door at 186 liberty you can park if you are just picking up.“
