this is as good as it gets...... ...when it comes to a neighborhood place that has good beer, good pizza and an efficient wait-staff. been there many times, but we always meet someone new that we can strike up a conversation with while we enjoy the pizza. mmm-mmm.
they offer a nice selection of beer, both national and micro-brews. a constantly updated selection allows you to sample different quaffs dependent on the time of the year: we had some wonderful octoberfest from sam adams.
the pizza is usually terrific. so far, we haven't had a bad one and it always shows up hot, just out of the pizza oven. the crust is uniformly cooked with no doughy spots. all the ingredients are distributed evenly, making all the pies tasty no matter what side you start from. the staff are always willing to change your seating (we've changed to the bar on several occasions and they have always been able to keep everything straight.) on top of that, the locals that frequent the place are easy to talk and friendly.
this is as close to my favorite pizza in the whole world, upper crust in boston.
