Okay first off, don't bother trying to call on a Friday night, no one will answer the phone and this is the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. I'm old fashioned and like to call in an order then pay and tip with cash when I pick up but since that wasn't an option I did the online order process and it worked out just fine. Ordered the Alsatian which was delicious, for whatever reason it was cut with two very small slices and two very big slices, again not a big deal but I feel cutting a pizza in fours should be rather simple unless they meant to cut it into 6 slices and forgot the last cut. The peanut butter chocolate chip ice cream was also delicious and they provided cups, spoons, plates, and napkins to make for an awesome take experience.

We booked a table here on a Tuesday night on a recommendation of a friend. It was very busy even at 8pm so booking is essential! The the restaurant decor is traditional and comfortable and the menu is small but exciting! My husband was thrilled to see the note at the top of the menu informing the diner that the pizza crusts come well done and charred (unless otherwise requested). We ordered the 10” Mushroom conserva with caramelised onion and Brie, and the Brocolini, preserved lemon and Goat’s cheese (without the bacon) pizzas. The flavours were so unique and very good! Even though we were pretty full after that we couldn’t resist the ice cream too! Portions are generous! I ordered the small pecan and toffee topped with brownie chunks: thought I couldn’t eat it all but couldn’t stop myself!! Small was two large scoops, and large was over 3 scoops!! They have a great selection of craft beers too….overall a very enjoyable meal!

My order:-Mushroom, Conserva, Brie pizza-Broccolini, Bacon, Goat Cheese pizza-Ciders-Ice Cream (Dark Chocolate sorbet and Chocolate Malt w/Chocolate ChipsFirst and foremost, this might bee one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. At least top 3. The mushroom pizza was savory and the Broccolini pizza had this citrus sweet taste that was amazing. Both go together very well. I can’t wait to try the other pizzas on the menu. The ice cream was good. And cider was okay. Everything just pales compared with the pizza. Our server was really good, as well. Very nice and professional.

Made a reservation (highly recommended - there’s a small dining area) and went on a Friday night. Had very attentive service and excellent half and half pizza - pepperoni and half Alsatian (bacon, onion, shallot, garlic, Gruyère, creme fresh) and both sides were absolutely delicious. I had leftover cold pizza in the morning and the flavors were still sooo good. Plus great local/regional selection of beer. One piece of advice: don’t get your heart set on one particular flavor of ice cream that you may have seen on their website site as it’s very possible there will be a much slimmer selection when you arrive.Go and enjoy!

The customer service is awful. They treated us like they were doing us a favor. The manager was handling our order and rushing us. He kept helping other people while taking our order. Then he forced our group to pay together when we wanted to pay separate (which was insensitive to our financial situation).Then we called the waitress over and she told us she was busy and was completely dismissive. We told the manager and he was completely defensive and rude. So many tables were available and he would not even let us sit while we waited for our food. The picture shows how empty it was. They need to work on their customer service

Probably the best pizza I have ever had. The dough is crispy from the bottom, but the crust is very fluffy. The pepperoni pizza is the best! Highly recommended if you like pizza out of the oven.

Absolutely delicious! We had the Alsatian pizza and one with sausage, pepperoni, mushroom, and olives. Both were fantastic. The caramelized onions added a whole new level! Oat stout was a great pairing and we tried 3 different ice creams to finish it off. (Vanilla Caramel with a brownie on top was O...M...G..!!!Can't wait to come back!

My favorite pizza place in Boston! Love the crispy oven baked crust and their sauce. I’m vegan and always do a create my own without cheese so I love that option! Great location in the south end too

The manager was rude and very unwilling to discuss a change of reservation to add one additional person. When we arrived with 6 people which was the original number of people in the reservation, the bartender was rude and told us we had arrived 10 Minutes late and they were unable to seat us even though the restaurant was wide open.

Great thin crust pizza with a nice initial crunch for the crust. The mushrooms on the pizza were flavorful. The short ribs pizza grew on me. You really taste the tomato sauce and the tang from the Gorgonzola cheese hits you later. Heavy slice but worth it. The arugula salad was generous and simple. The ice cream exceeded expectations - great texture and not overly sweet. Would come again to try other pizza toppings and grab a pint of ice cream. Service was attentive and warm.
