West Napoli Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (79)

"Solid pizza.Pros: They aren't stingy with toppings, including cheese. Very hefty pizza, more than many places. Good value. Red onions used as onions, vs yellow or white, which is a great flavor choice.Cons: Greek-style crust, not my favorite type. Sort of messy to eat.But 4 stars nonetheless. Good value, price was sharp for pizza on GrubHub. Probably one of the better values for pizza on GrubHub and I order A LOT of pizza."

Jersey Mike's Subs

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (11)

"Great subs and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. The Italian sub is my favorite closely followed by the steak and cheese."

CitySide Tavern

★★★☆☆ 3 (454) • $$

"I've now gone twice in the past 4 days. I'd describe Cityside as classic pub food meets good music and indoor/outdoor restaurant vibes. My order a few days ago (not pictured): I got the fried chicken sandwich with fries and a black berry downeast. Exactly what I needed to fulfill my chicken sandwich craving as well as a solid berry downeast flavor on tap coming in clutch to sip on while chatting with friends. Awesome music. They've got 90's rock and alternative music on repeat. Needless to say we had a blast. 4 days later: I ordered nachos and a mimosa. My boyfriend got Buffalo tenders and a mimosa. We both loved our meal and left the place full. The mimosas were perfect on a warm Sunday morning. The highlight this time around was definitely the seating situation. Now that their outdoor patio is open (after having been under construction for a couple years I wanna say), we were able to enjoy a stunning view of Cleveland Circle as we sat on the second floor while enjoying our meals and drinks."

Nino’s Pizza & Subs

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (106) • $

"The scoop: the sauce - delicious, the crust - really delicious...they have great pizza...but nowadays it's the little things. Seriously...this place would get 5 stars from me if they did something as simple as putting fresh basil on the margarita pizza. I want this place to do well because it's my local pizza place. If they step it up a notch they could be just as good as my Beacon Hill favorite...Florina's. The ladies that work here are always nice and friendly! And staying open until 11pm would definitely attract the local college students."

Wagon Wheel Diner

★★★★☆ 4.1 (28)

"Back in the area visiting , after moving out of MA almost a decade ago. We miss the local Jewish delis and diners. Wagon Wheel is the real deal, brunch for champions and family members alike. We tried it all!Banana bread to start was spongy, warm, butter melted, and fresh.We ordered the special breakfast burrito, the Sunshine breakfast with challah French toast, eggs over easy, sides of corn beef hash, turkey bacon and sausage, a veggie Benedict, a tuna melt, & veggie omelette. Everyone loved the food. Service was friendly and quick. The coffee kept flowing. Ed & Ilene- bravo. A new solid staple for the Sharon community. We'll be back for family reunions now that my sister is a local resident."

American Provisions

★★★★★ 4.6 (201)

"Great neighborhood spot. Terrific natural wine selection and beer. Try our Grays next door as well."

Papa Rino's

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (30)

"Got takeaway of a calzone of cheese and mushroom and my friend got an Italian sub. No complaints about his sandwich, but my calzone was a bit bland. Put some spices on those mushrooms when you cook them and it would be amazing! Great cheese and crust...I'll keep getting it and adding spices to the top or the sauce. Staff were nice and funny (at least when complaining about their boss to his face, haha)"

Clerys

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (481) • $$

"We came here at 5pm. The place was pretty busy. Service was good. We got the Smokey Mango Mai Thai, Bee Stings wings, Hot Honey Roni Pizza, Wagyu Sliders, Buffalo Dip, Clery's Famous Steak Tips, and Southend Cheesesteak. All of the dishes were tasty. You can definitely tasty the quality in the ingredients. The Cheesesteak was made with a tasty shaved Ribeye in a toasted Panni. Steak Tips were cooked perfectly medium raw. Overall, one of the best bar food that I had so far"

Hidden Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4 (39) • $

"The burgers here are great, juicy, tender and flavorful, they'd cook it the way you want it to be. I'd end up here whenever I'm craving for a burger and adding a fries to go with it. I'd come back to try other items as its coveniently located near my work.P.s call to place an order over the phone, so you dont have to wait long. Cash only."

Ethel and Andy's Sandwich Shop

★★★★☆ 4.3 (49) • $

"Small local community corner store vibes, pleasant Southie staff, got a great steak and cheese out of here today. Hope to return to try some more stuff."

Ideal Sub Shop

★★★★☆ 4 (93)

"I've been coming to ideals since I was a kid and absolutely love the subs here. The service is top tier and the people here are very friendly. If you're looking for some Cape Verdean food then definitely stop by they have some CV items on the menu. My go to item whenever I come by is either the Italian sub or the tuna sub. 10/10 ! If you're ever in the Roxbury area definitely stop by."

Cobblestones

★★★★☆ 3.6 (48)

"A wonderful little Cafe for breakfast, lunch, or just a snack. Stopped in for a coffee during a morning rain. Got a latte with oat milk, and it was so well prepared. Fresh ground and ever so good. It definitely hit the spot.The staff was very friendly and kind. The offerings look wonderful and highly recommend it."

Eastern Standard Kitchen & Drinks

★★★★☆ 3.8 (64) • $$$

"So excited that ES has opened its doors again! Service was great, though we did have to ask to be seated at a proper table as opposed to a high top for dinner. Food was mostly on point. We all got Weiner schnitzel and I have to say, I've had much better. But the cod fritters and the charcuterie board were great. The bread was delicious and fresh. And I especially loved the sliced picked cucumbers that came w the dish. All in all, it was a lovely experience and I will most certainly return next time I'm in Boston."

OggiGourmet

★★★★☆ 3.9 (211) • $

"Love OggiGourmet! Can always count on special toppings like eggplant and others!Staff are always very friendly. Great indoor and outdoor space for groups. Very convenient since it's located right outside of the Smith Center! Will be back again!"

Johnnie’s Pizza & Wings

★★★★★ 4.7 (28)

"I have walked/driven by Johnnie's so many times, but this was my first time in after calling to order a Chicken Parm calzone; the small was huge! A nice woman answered when I called, and she was there 10 minutes later when I picked it up, very friendly in person and thanked me for coming in.After eyeing a plate of fudgy brownies I bought one of those too, it was excellent!I needed to pass one of their competitors - Gigi's - to get there, but I am no longer a fan of G's due to the snarly service and after trying Johnnie's great calzone I never need to think about Gigi's again. If you have passed Johnnie's too, go right in for a great surprise! There is retail parking along the driveway, so pull in and get your great food!!"

New York Pizza -Boston

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (331) • $

"Stumbled here spontaneously and was pleasantly surprised! Literally had no expectations coming here.Super flavorful pizza, we got chicken bacon ranch, and it was crispy too - we asked for it extra toasted and it came out perfect. The slices are massive and they cut it in half for us. The slice was $5.50 but it's a big portion size so I thought it was worth it. I think it's great for a night time snack/meal :)"

Pastelaria Vitoria Broadway

★★★★☆ 4.4 (55)

"There are a lot of grey, boring areas of Boston. But Somerville is decorated with beautiful colours, Pastel colours in fact. It's know, for this reason, as the "Pastel-area." Which is how this restaurant got its name.OK, fine, I made that up. A Pastelaria is a Brazilian place that makes Pastels, and my goodness, does this place make them so, freaking, well.What to get: The Pastel with everything (the mixed one)What to drink: Abacaxi Com Hortela (pineapple with mint)So what is it? It's a massive enormous huge large (did I mention big) version of the typical Latin Empanada, but with all kinds of amazing things stuffed in there, and I'm talking a large, generous helping of stuff inside this huge fried goodie, which is less than ten dollars and will definitely fill you up.It's also piping hot and greasy and juicy and will fall apart easily, so you have been warned. You play with a hot pastel, you'll get burned.Always get the one that has everything in it, first. Various meats, hearts of palm, all kinds of spices and deliciousness. Amazing. Easily the best one I've ever had outside Brasil, and in fact it ranks right up there with some of the better ones I had in Brasil. I can't give it a higher compliment than that. One of the best things you can eat in Boston, nearly as good as the amazing Oasis Steakhouse and Oasis Bakery (also Brazilian) just down the road. You really need to visit all three to get a good sense of the amazing-ness of Brazilian food.The drinks are pretty good, especially the Abacaxi Com Hortela (pineapple with mint), as well as all the other tropical amazon fruit flavours, and there are all kinds of frozen treats like Acai, and candy from Brazil to choose from, as well as baked goods.You can eat them the guy-way, or the broad-way, but either way you'll be so happy you came to this Pastelaria, if you happen to be in the Pastel-area."

Deno's Pizza & Subs

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (113)

"Best toasted spicy Italian sub I've ever had. I come from a little town in northwest PA and thought the best subs were made their. I was wrong. The best subs come from Deno's of West Roxbury. I recommend you have one before you die!! It will give you a reason to keep living for the next one. I wish I had taken a picture. I ordered a 'large' and split it with my brother. We were both satisfied! Can't wait to travel back (I now live south of Boston) and have it again or maybe try something new. Cudo's to the owners. Please don't change anything!"

Ma Magoo's Pizza & Sub Shop

★★★★☆ 4 (289)

"If I could give this place 10 stars I would. The chicken tenders are 100% the star of the show. Ordered a chicken tender sub with honey mustard (Ma Magoo's honey mustard is unmatched to others) American cheese and lettuce and it was the ultimate *chefs kiss*. I'd also like to mention that I did online order for delivery and not only was it an easy process (sometimes these online order websites are a pain) but it came FAST! We got fries also and they were delicious and CRISP. How much do you hate soggy fries when getting them delivered?I love that Ma Magoo's is a small biz and I'll be supporting them over and over again!"

Nicole's Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.5 (150) • $

"This review is for delivery thru Grub hub. First of all grub hub is a nightmare to work with especially when getting it delivered to a hotel. I had to get this pizza delivered twice but luckily I was in no rush. Pizza was yummy and the crust is completely different than most pizzas I have had out here in Boston. Crust is thin and almost airy with a bit of a sourdough taste in my opinion. Not bad and all around good pizza. I can imagine how it would hve tasted hot and fresh."

Viga

★★★★☆ 3.7 (84)

"Viga has been a recent discovery a mine that has quickly turned into an addiction. With affordable options and quick service, Viga offers everything from sandwiches and salads, to pasta, pizza and specials. They frequently rotate their options and most items are under $8. They even have lunch combos available to patrons.I'm particularly fond of any of their sandwiches and wraps which feature their delicious, rich pesto sauce. The one I most frequently get is their Treviso ($6.59) which is a grilled chicken breast, pesto sauce, provolone, rice and tomatoes in a spinach wrap. Filling and pretty darn tasty to boot. I've never really had an issue with their service which is always very quick and never seems to get fazed by the lines. The place is pretty small though and does get pretty cramped. Occasionally there is some line confusion too but nothing too serious.On my agenda: to try their pizzas which I heard are awesome (and giant!). I haven't had their salads yet either and plan on doing so. So far the sandwiches and wraps have kept me happy and coming back though.If you're in the financial area and in need of a quick, cheap lunch, look no further."

Shy Bird

★★★★☆ 4.2 (75)

"Stopped by to get a bite and some work done on a weekday morning. The fried chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious - so juicy and crunchy. In terms of a place to work, it's a decent setup with good wifi and even printing. Lots of space to spread out and outlets everywhere. Outdoor seating as well if you want sun. It was empty the entire morning and started to pick up when the lunch crowd started coming in. The music and background noise wasn't too loud so you can take calls. The service was nice as they would check in on you but left you alone for the most part. They also have this special Work from Shybird set up that I didn't try out since I didn't need coffee and wasn't planning on staying too long. Seems like a good deal if you were planning on doing lunch and coffee anyways."

Davis Square Pizza & Subs

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (108)

"I would like to put a plug in for Davis Square Pizza on Highland Ave. I am a pizzaholic. I could eat it 3 meals a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Seriously. They are under new management. The place was bought about 8 months ago, and the owner is there every day. I think this is my favorite pizza place (the next one is Pinky's down the road in Medford (I think). And I have tried almost all of the pizza places around, usually to a lot of disappointment. But not this place. The crust is just the right thickness/thinness, the right balance of toppings to the sauce to the crust. It can be folded but is not droopy and unmanageable. And for me, it's all about the sauce. And the sauce is excellent. I make my own and my standards are high. Tangy. not too sweet, lots of tomato flavor, not too thin and not too thick. They have seating but I don't see a lot of dine-in customers. But there seems to be a lot of take-out. I used to order using an app but the owner said it is best for them if we just call the old-fashioned way - so that's what I do now."

Livi's Pockets

★★★★☆ 4.3 (140) • $

"Y'all, how do I put it? Livi's slaps. The homemade pita chips are just fantastic. So good that I have to hide the container on the way home so that I don't finish them and lose valuable room for their fresh sandwiches. They have cashew, pistachio, and walnut baklava that are literally perfect in their crunch and flakiness. There's spinach pie that sings of lemon and dill and is eminently satisfying to pull apart just to see how gorgeously the soft and yeasty pie separates...I could go on. I learned of all of these delights in the service of getting Livi's sandwiches to go. I'd previously always ordered off of Postmates but the exorbitant fees, along with the uncertainty of whether the order would be accepted and placed in time, actually got me in a car today. To get food. I left my apartment when I had other options available at the click of a button to get Livi's. In 2021, that speaks to how good Livi's is. I generally get the falafel and chicken or falafel sandwiches with eggplant added. The falafels are perfectly seasoned and what I call "optimal wrap falafels." Their size is such that you get falafel in every bite. Their grilled chicken is very juicy and flavorful...if I'm feeling healthier, I'd just get a grilled chicken wrap. Not today, Satan. The falafel and eggplant is decadent in how delicious it is but given other things you could be eating that hit that kind of way, it's not too bad in the overall health scheme of things. I don't know what pita they use but it's the softest with the most satisfying pull. Again, that pull! The pandemic has changed Livi's hours but even then, they'd close by 6 on weeknights and be closed on weekends if I remember. Current hours are 11:00 AM-3:00 PM on weekdays but I'd call ahead. This is absolutely worth structuring your lunch break around. If you're looking for the best falafel sandwiches and PITA CHIPS and spinach pie in Providence, look no further. This, my friends, is manna."

Machu Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.3 (321) • $$

"Machu chicken is awesome. The chicken is the highlight here as the restaurant's name suggests. I'm not really a big meat eater, but I even found their chicken to be juicy and tasty...and definitely worth the value of the price you pay for your meal there.The establishment isn't upscale by any means. It's just a cut above fast food restaurant. But...every diner I saw just about knew what the secret dish that you couldn't afford to miss there..e.g. chicken!If you enjoy chicken or are looking got a mesl with good value..check out Machu chicken! It might be a little hard to find parking spot as the restaurant is smacked in the center of Union Sq and the area seems to be under a perpetual subway construction...but I promise a visit there will be worth your time and money spent!P.S. fried yuccas..which are a notch above reg potato fries are awesome carb choices, too!"

Eggmania- Chelmsford

★★★★☆ 4.3 (32)

"Hands down, some of the best Indian food we've had in the Boston area. How I wish this was closer to home!We were returning from New Hampshire and wanted to grab dinner on the way. Eggsmania came up in the search list and had great reviews. We easily placed our order online, probably one of their first ones of the evening since they open at 5 pm. It was a quick pick up and after an hour's drive home, the food was still hot. The surati gotalo had bits of chopped boiled egg in a tomato-onion base gravy (I'd guess). It was so good! Next, the chicken keema. It was cooked well, flavorful! Both of these came with a side of white bread, honestly, a great accompaniment if you cannot have the more traditional 'pav'. The best part about these dishes was the opportunity to try something new, rather than the same saag, tikka masala, makhani, etc. We also got the paneer volcano biryani which was tasty but I may not order it again. The other two, surati gotalo and chicken keema, are definitely on my 'order again' list. Their menu has many mouth-watering dishes so it's definitely going to be hard to narrow it down when we visit again! Also, one star for the friendly staff!"

Exodus Bagels

★★★★☆ 4.4 (120) • $

"Exodus is consistent. It's been more than 4 years since I last had a bagel from here and it delivers. The one thing this time: I asked for light on the cream cheese and I literally got enough cream cheese for three bagels. It's not a deal breaker but just be cautious and maybe ask for it on the side. I'll try that next time. Crispy, lighthearted bagels that are really just excellent!!"

Simple Fare

★★★★★ 4.5 (71) • $$

"Simple fare is indeed simple but good. Their potato chips are to die for, but the french fries are a little less greasy options. The greasy potato chips still win. I had and recommend: Caprese Panini (no meat!) or the Reuben. So tasty!And - quite importantly - not a NYC diner - meaning that the Simple Fare service is really friendly."

Dudley Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.8 (87) • $$

"OMG, so many baked good to choose from & so damn tasty!! Woohoo for pumpkin muffins & toffee cookies. I ended up getting a sandwich called New Edition as well & it was so damn good. The names are pretty interesting & done w/ serious thought. So great there are veg*n options.Yes you need to go here, like now."

Café Luna

★★★★☆ 4.2 (1812) • $$

"See, I don't typically go out for brunch mostly because I am not really a breakfast person but Café Luna is the place to go!The mexican corn omelette with home fries is amazing. We tried the chipotle chicken hash with truffle fries & eggs over easy for the first time. This was yummy and was different from our usual order of corned beef hash, though we liked the corned beef hash much more. Their drinks are banging, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Portion sizes are large, super filling, and the food always comes out quick. I totally recommend trying Café Luna, if you haven't yet!"

Flour Bakery + Café

★★★★☆ 4.3 (1380) • $$

"Great breakfast spot - lots of menu options for different levels of hungriness and taste buds, solid coffee, and many fresh pastries. The ordering process is very simple and quick with the touchscreen right at the entrance.I got an avocado toast which was done fast and tasted fresh. It's decent size and comes with an egg and peppers - yum! It wasn't that expensive either. Definitely recommend!"

Cafe Brazil Bakery

"So if you're up in MassachusettsAnd you can't deal with sh** and might lose itYou should really just chillCome to Cafe BrasilAnd then after we'll go home and do sexIf the top half of your girlie underwear is feeling poorly, then your Bra's ill.This is an adorable little Brazilian Bakery which I checked out on a couple of occasions now and they make nice Pao De Queijo and other Brazilian Delights like Coxinha.I highly recommend them for all your delicious Brazilian Bakery needs. The woman working here is so adorable as well. Extremely friendly as well with excellent customer service.Not to mention they are absolutely dirt cheap.My other review:This is a lovely little Bakery with really friendly people and the woman working here was really really super nice. I thoroughly enjoyed the warm gooey Pao De Queijo that I bought here and will definitely return. There are a number of bakeries by this name around the region so I guess it might be a chain but this is my favourite so far.This lovely little Brazilian Bakery has excellent PDQ which are the little gooey hot cheese breads and I love that they serve them warm to me. The girl who gave me them was a total sweetheart and seemed to really like me. Friendly people and good products, so definitely a five-star location of this Bakery.Also known as the Padaria Brasil.If you're going to wear a Period Pad, then make sure the Pad Area is the right area, I guess."

Better Bagels

★★★☆☆ 2.6 (8)

"I found this bagel shop walking near south street Amtrak stop, and decided to go in to get me a bagel. Quality has gone downhill since the last time I ate from here two months ago. I ordered a toasted bagel with creamcheese and my friend got egg and cheese on bagel. We waited about 15 minutes with three other people in front of us - fine, I understand it's busy during lunch time. However, upon receiving our order, the order was such a disappointment. My bagel wasn't toasted, was small, and was just ok. My friend's sandwich looked premade. He tossed half of it because it tasted like plastic and wasn't even warm. He said the eggs were the most disgusting thing. I would love to like this place, but overall can't justify ever paying $17 for two bagels ever again. And to think some of their bagel sandwiches go up to close to $20! I just think for the price, the quality is no longer thereThe staff were nasty and didn't care about customers coming in to the store. You're better off getting something from Dunkin' Donuts!!"

Fantastic Pizza & Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (71) • $

"We have been making our way through Worcester's eats via delivery because going out requires getting dressed, putting on shoes, getting transportation, etc. Ain't nobody got time for all of that nonsense. Any place that offers both pizza, fries, cheesy fries, AND some sort of ethnic cuisine is a valuable asset. Fantastic offers all of that shit and with a name like "fantastic", how can you go wrong? We ordered from here last night. We ordered a small pizza to allow us more room for other stuff, with two toppings: garlic and olives. We also ordered 2 samosas, baba ganooj, gobhi manchurian, and HAD to get the falafel after the menu said they have the best falafel of Worcester (competition is steep, I'm sure). Food came quicker than expected. The pizza is just ok. It's fine because it's bread, sauce, and cheese but I actually prefer domino's pizza. They also only give you two options: small and large. If you're ordering just for the pizza, I'd probably order elsewhere although the pizza game in Worcester isn't strong to begin with. The only thing is they have INDIAN PIZZAS. We didn't try this, but it is probably amazing. The cauliflower was delicious. The sauce is thick and very flavorful. They also throw in some peppers in there for the sake of variety. The falafel was incredibly crispy and crunchy. We ordered it in wrap form and the wrap was huge. The baba ganooj was also very flavorful, creamy, and smooth. The bread provided isn't quite adequate so either order more, use your own bread, or have some chips on hand to take care of the rest. We were actually too full to have the samosas so they were saved for the following day. Even as leftovers they were delicious. They are PHAT and stuffed with spiced potatoes, peas, and some other good flavored shit.This place is a good delivery/take out place but I don't think pizza is their strength."
