Ernesto's Pizza

We paid a visit to Ernesto's to get some pizza and drinks. Tip: The inside of the venue is quite worn and looking a bit grubby; fortunately, that doesn't seem to have any negative effects on the food ;-)The slices we ordered were pretty good, though the salad I asked for never did appear....Over and above the need for interior refurbishment, the staff doesn't seem to be working really hard at table and bathroom cleaning either - all things considered, next time we'll seek elsewhere for our pizza.

While in line for 2 hours for the Hellp Kitty Pop up truck in assembly row, we got hungry like many others in line and what do you know, Ernesto's pizza was there to supply!Walked in, single bathroom quick pizzeria.I copped us a slice (pretty much 2 slices) for 8 bucks. Got the chicken bacon ranch and it hit the spot. Crispy good tasting dough in my opinion, toppings was good. Reheated for us and was quick.Kid friendly, few tables and window counter to sit at. On the go kind of pizza shop.

I was in line waiting for the Hello Kitty Cafe pop up and in total waited almost 3 hours to get to the front of the line. When we were in the middle, we were hungry and decided to get two pizza slices to snack on from Ernesto's. The chicken bacon ranch from here was SOO GOOD! I'm not even just saying that because we were so hungry... it was surprisingly very delicious. Pretty big slices too. I would definitely come back here whenever I am in Assembly Row. Still a month later after trying that one singular slice of pizza, I still remember how good it was.

There were 12 different pizzas you could choose from to buy per slice. I got the old school that had tomatoes, basil, and Parmesan cheese. The toppings were good. What makes this slice amazing is the crust. Crispy with great undercarriage. The kind of pizza I'd expect in Boston. Loved it. They took only 3 minutes to warm it up and place on cheap paper plates. There were friendly and fast. Perfect for a pizza place. Place is clean with indoor and outdoor seating. I'd come here any day of the weeks for a quick bite or with friends. 10/10.

I've never been to Ernesto's in the north end but I thought this was pretty good. The buffalo chicken I liked less but it was still tasty. It just needed more chicken and maybe a ranch and buffalo sauce drizzle. The pepperoni was amazing!!! It was crispy and cheesy and just delicious. One complaint that I have about the pizza is that there's too much crust and it's not really seasoned but that's just person preference. Overall it was really yummy and I want to try the north end location now!!

Ernesto's is solid, but nothing special. I've stopped by a few times while in Assembly Row when I'm trying to grab a quick meal on the go. They don't really sell pizza by the slice, since you're essentially required to order two slices at a time. Sometimes all I really want is one slice, but I'm suckered into ordering two. The service is quick, but I've found they don't always heat the pizza all the way. I generally eat outside, but they do have some indoor seating available as well. It's a casual spot, so you can eat there or take it to go.The pizza itself is fairly mediocre, but it gets the job done. It's a bit on the greasy side, so be prepared with some napkins. I generally go for the pepperoni or meat lovers, so that could definitely contribute to the grease factor. Overall, an okay spot.

We took a look at the pizza slices to choose from and the chicken ranch bacon slice looked the best. The slice was humongous as it always is at Ernesto's and costed with one water bottle in total, $8. I asked if they could cut the slice in half which they said was no problem. The pizza oven got our pizza slice all crisped up which was fantastic. When I tried the slice which also had thin slices of tomato on it, it reminded me of the grilled cheeses with tomato my mom used to make at home. The pizza was fabulous and the crunch you got from the pizza crust and bacon complimented the also soft cheese my bite. I miss eating this slice of pizza. Service was fast and nice enough for a pizza joint. There was a bathroom customers could use which was great as well as plenty of pizza spice toppings available.

My friends and I got take-out as we were at a nearby hotel in preparation for Encore. As I was not involved in the ordering or picking up process, I cannot speak for the organization or time management of that. However, it was hot and fresh by the time it made it to our room. It was a thin crust with slightly sweet tomato sauce. As someone who doesn't usually go for pepperoni pizza anymore, it might have reconverted me on to it. The crust had a fun chewy texture that made me keep coming back for more. In my opinion, I did not find it overly greasy and enjoyed each bite. Overall, I would like to order from here again and try some of their other options.

They serve delicious large slices of pizza. The pizza is on the thinner side and crunchy. They offer outdoor seating, a nice spot to take a break with the kiddos, especially on the warmer days. It's an easy option for a quick bite while shopping, after visiting Legoland, or the movies at the Assembly Row area.

We go the one in the north end of Boston. Been going for many, many, years. Always GOOD !!! The BEST pizza in the north end. It's small. On Salem Street in the North End of Boston. Always a line. Always delicious. Not a fancy place but ICONIC !!!You can eat in - a few tables - or share a table - or take it out. Just sooooo good.
