Tonight we took Elise out to Regina Pizzeria for her birthday! Elise, a Massachusetts native, had recommended it to us and we decided to give it a try. Regina Pizzeria is also on the Boston Eater 38 and Food & Wine Magazine lists it as one of Boston's best value restaurants.
Regina's normally has a line out the door, but since it was Tuesday night, we were lucky enough to be seated immediately. The atmosphere is very family-friendly and casual. One of the walls displays a fun collection of police patches from all over the country.
Our waitress brought us paper plates and menus listing dozens of different pizzas, including a make-your-own option. All of the pizzas can be ordered as either 10" or 16". We ordered a 10" classic margherita and a 10" sausage cacciatore to share.
Our pizzas arrived quickly and we immediately dug in. The crust was incredible: it was crisp and light but still sturdy enough to hold the toppings without bending (although after a few minutes the sausage pizza crust started to soften). The margherita came with chopped fresh basil and was absolutely delicious.
The sausage cacciatore, topped with onions, mushrooms, and green bell peppers, was fantastic as well. All of the ingredients were of good quality and freshness.
Regina's original North End location has been in business for almost 90 years, and it's easy to see why it's so popular. If you want great pizza for a great price, this is the place to go.
