Really enjoyed Lily's Pizza & Bar! We sat outside on a Friday evening, and the atmosphere was perfect. Place has a great vibe, relaxing, and it's a nice place to enjoy a glass of Pinot Grigio while engaging in conversation with friends. The crust cauliflower appetizer was so good. Crisp to boot perfection and tossed in a delicious sauce. I also had the white cheese pizza was DELICIOUS. Everything was flavorful and fresh. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. Great food, great drinks, and a great atmosphere! read more

I went here for lunch, and while it was great, I honestly think this place really shines as a dinner spot. The vibes are so cool, and I could definitely see it being a fun place to go out at night. During the day I felt a little out of place, but that's just because it has more of an evening atmosphere. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich and wow... it was so good. Definitely one of the better ones I've had. My son got the chicken too and absolutely loved it, which says a lot because he's usually pretty picky. The service was also super kind and welcoming. I'd definitely come back, especially for dinner next time! read more

Buffalo chicken pizza was great! Thin and crispy crust, shredded chicken, and bleu cheese crumbles! For $22 it was big enough to share. Espresso martini was good but was about the same price as the pizza! Service was solid and our food came out quick. read more

We needed lunch in Boston's Financial District. Saw "Lily's" on Yelp with solid reviews. That's my daughter's name. Done. Lincoln's hung behind the bar. You've got tin ceiling tiles, red neon spelling out XO Lily on wallpaper with brown patterns, red booths with buttons everywhere. Abe running the place like a speakeasy decorated by an Italian grandmother. It works. We ordered house made chips and a pepperoni pizza. The chips came out warm. Actually warm, not "we nuked these 20 minutes ago" warm. Kettle style cut, seasoned right, crunchy. Someone's slicing potatoes in the back. You can tell. I kept eating them even though the pizza was coming. No regrets. The pizza showed up in a metal tray on pink branded paper, big enough for two people at lunch. The sauce hit first. Bright, tomato forward without going sweet. You could taste the oregano salt and basil doing something, not just sitting there. The pepperoni cupped up with crispy edges like it's supposed to. The crust. 24 hours fermenting that dough. You feel it in the chew. That's gluten development from time, not from shortcuts. Crisp where it touched the pan, soft enough to fold. It carried the sauce and cheese without showing off. Some places build their whole identity around crust, make you listen to the fermentation timeline before you can order. This one just made good dough and moved on. The server was perfect. Not hovering, not missing. Never waited for a refill but she wasn't standing there asking how everything was every four minutes either. That balance is tough. She nailed it. After 67 pizzerias across Rhode Island, I can spot the difference between a kitchen and an assembly line. Lily's is a kitchen. They're doing the boring work. The stuff that costs more and takes longer and doesn't photograph well for Instagram. Making chips from scratch when buying them's cheaper. Fermenting dough for a day when you could rush it. Hiring people who understand timing. Would I go back? Yeah. The chips were great. The pizza was good. Saw sandwiches, burgers, desserts on the menu that looked good too. But honestly? I'd drive back just for those chips. Still warm. Worth every single one I ate before the pizza arrived. Lincoln approves. read more

This place is awesome!!! The decor inside is very cozy and classy. Pizza is great! We ordered a cheese pizza for our 3 and 5 years old, they loved it so much, they finish the whole pie. My husband and I got buffalo chicken pizza, it has blue cheese chunk on it, sooo good! Service was quick and the server is very nice! Will definitely recommend this place if you happen to stop by financial district! read more

First time here on Friday night for karaoke! Fun place, cool interior, very interesting artwork on the walls, great vibe. Place was already packed and all tables seemed reserved when we got here around 7. They were able to make a table available for our group of 6-7 though right near the karaoke setup, so that was great! The karaoke system is essentially you put your name & song down on a sheet of paper and the DJ Gene calls you - that's it. Not too many people sign up so you can get to sing 3-4 songs through the night which goes until 11. For food, I only ordered the chopped salad because I had already eaten dinner beforehand. It was good - crispy lettuce chopped bite size, shredded carrots, tomatoes, avocados creamy ranch dressing. I actually quite enjoyed it although I think it was a bit small especially given that it's $18 - but this is downtown so prices like that are to be expected. Others ordered pizza and enjoyed it. Service was good, very efficient. The place is super busy and the servers are all running around. Pro tip for parking: We lucked out with SpotHero parking in the garage (Pearl street) nearby for only $9! What a deal for almost 4 hours of parking! Fun vibe, with lots of regulars and some really good singers. So a really fun time was had by all. The DJ's wife Sandra was sitting right there at the first table. She was really sweet! Will definitely be back for karaoke and hubs will have to try their pizza one of his favorite foods! read more

Great ambiance with retro vibes. The chicken bacon ranch was delicious with thin crispy crust. The chicken on the pizza seemed like it was fried vs grilled which only added flavor. I believe the ranch was buttermilk. The pepperoni pizza was a little too greasy but that did not take away from the amazing flavors and crunchy pepperoni. The red sangria was sweet but not overwhelming. The espresso martini was perfect if you enjoy a more creamy vs dark. I would not recommend the cucumber lemonade cocktail, way too tart. read more

Way too salty. Service was great which is the only reason it gets one star. The ambiance was fine but the food was just so disgusting. We got the popcorn chicken and pizza. Horrible! Just poison. Save your time and money and go to the burger place. read more

The ambiance is great. Super fun interior design. Music is a bit loud for lunch time but otherwise the experience was good. Everyone was very friendly. Didn't spend much time waiting to be seated, to order, or to receive our food. The chicken wings were good. They had good flavor. Pizza selection was fun. Lots of options. read more

Came here for dinner on a Friday night because we could get a reservation. It's not really in a nightlife area with other bars and restaurants, more of a business / financial district where it's the only place open. Inside was fun, dimly lit bar space that was well decorated. They have a good Americana menu and we opted for pizza salad pasta. Portions were generous and food was fine. Good service, and they had Maine lunch on draft which I appreciated! read more

We stopped by Lily's to enjoy some carby-cheesy goodness post marathon. Upon entry, you feel a little lost, which we observed with other guests after we were seated. You walk in and it feels like it could be seat yourself, but there is a host. The restaurant is eclectically decorated to say the least. Kind of a weird vibe for a pizza bar, but it was very clean and the service was prompt We ordered buffalo chicken dip, a pepperoni pizza, and a spinach and artichoke pizza. The buffalo chicken dip was a bit mild, but we enjoyed it. The pepperoni pizza was quite good. The pepperoni was the small slices that cup upward and save their greasy goodness. The spinach and artichoke pizza was disappointingly bland. Normally a flavorful combo, but the flavors were severely underdeveloped. read more

My husband said his pizza was the best he's ever had in Boston - he got the pepperoni. The pain killer cocktails were phenomenal. The general manager came over to see how things were. Was super friendly, chatted for a few, but was not bothersome at all. A nice touch, that doesn't happen much these days. Some constructive feedback: My chopped salad (my meal) was fresh, but boring. It was pre-dressed with ranch, but not nearly enough. Recommend putting dressing on the side so it's not over/under done, and people can opt on how much they want. Bigger slices of avocado would have made it more flavorful. Also, mostly high top seats. This makes it challenging for people of shorter stature and seniors, unless they are sitting on the patio, which was not open, due to rain. Great decor/vibe, and overall decent experience. We'd probably come back, but I'd likely order something different. read more

Was on a business trip in Boston and needed somewhere to grab a bit and if you're looking for a casual bar with good food this one is recommend from me. The server was friendly and the music was reggaeton so my bias is at play when I saw the ambiance was great Lol. And I just include that the fries and pizza hit the spot for me so I would definitely revisit. read more

We stopped in here for a drink and a good a Shareable if that menu was worthy. We sat down and ordered our regular drinks and saw they have Chicken Parmesan Spring Rolls! We had to try them out for ourselves. They were perfectly cooked with a ton of flavor and we were wanting more. We were trying to pace ourselves in the food realm so only had this appetizer and marked this place to come back to. The other thing I loved about this place was that they had multiple charging stations with multiple charger cords for all phone types. What a very thoughtful add to a place that really helps out the customers. read more

We came here on recommendation from the concierge at the Intercontinental hotel. We ordered a combo pizza, not on the menu, but they created it for us: Italian sausage, mushrooms, ricotta and mozzarella cheeses. This pizza was fantastic! We think the mushrooms were baby portobellos, possibly marinated in red wine? SO tasty, we had to leave this review! More than just a great pizza, but a classic Italian restaurant atmosphere. read more

We were walking back from the harbor and looking for a late evening snack. We went in and ordered beer and pizza. The beer we ordered was out so the bar tender came over and offered a similar beer with the promise to not charge us if we did not like it. Great offer and service. Pizza was outstanding. Loved the music playing also. read more

Love the dark moody vibe here. We came here around 7pm on a Tuesday and it wasn't crowded. We were seated promptly. Our waitress was very quick and attentive. Our drink order and food came out ultra quickly. We loved almost everything. The popcorn chicken was crispy and we loved the sauce it came with. It was reminiscent of General Tso's chicken. We also thought the elote dip, buffalo chicken dip and the quesadilla were delicious. The Margherita pizza was very flavorful and I loved the chunky tomato but the tomatoes gave off too much water and that made the pizza soggy and the toppings fell off. Otherwise it's an inexpensive spot for some comfy food and a cool vibe. read more

We decided to enjoy a last minute Valentine's Day dinner at Lily's! And we are glad we did! As we walked in someone was there to ask us if we had a rez and we got sat right away. The server immediately took our drink order and service was prompt. I had the Downeast cider on draft and my hubby got a spicy margarita. Both were delicious. We shared everything - taco salad, bang bang cauliflower, cheesy bread add pep, and nachos. The taco salad is one of the best I've had - I love the flour tortilla shell and grilled chicken. Cannot wait to order the bang bang cauliflower again. The cheesy bread did not disappoint - we loved dipping it into the marinara sauce. Nachos were perfect - lots of toppings and flavorful. Overall, this place is amazing. We cannot wait to come back - the vibe is so cool with good music. Cheers! read more

Lily's Pizza & Bar, and Patio offers indoor seating, bar seating, a private off street patio, and a pandemic street patio. I guess that might make it a quadruple threat. Service was pleasant. I got a Margherita pizza to go. Thin crust. Fresh mozzarella. Slices of tomato and a couple of basil leaves. With one pie cut into 6 slices, not every slice had basil, but the tomatoes at least made the round. They were a bit too generous with the black pepper to our taste, but we liked the crust and still enjoyed Lily's pizza. read more

My wife and I made a reservation based on good reviews and the knowledge that they had decorated for the holidays. The food did not disappoint! We ordered the Corn Dip which was good and the Best Nachos which were awesome! The nachos had a balanced flavor - sweet barbecue sauce was offset by the truffle aioli. The portion was huge, good for 4 to share so we took most of it home to leave room for pizza. The pizza tasted terrific. We ordered the Margherita to keep things simple and the crust was really tasty. Our one critical comment is that the pizza smelled like the parchment paper it was served on. Everything else, service and atmosphere include, was great. We will be back. read more

Came here for a late(ish) night snack on a weeknight as we were visiting Boston! The restaurant is located on Broad street with a decent bit of outdoor seating available. There weren't many people when we visited, but it seems like a place that would look very different on the weekends. The sausage and cherry pepper pizza was solid with a crispy crust, a slightly spicy sauce and a sprinkling of sausage throughout. Honestly a pretty solid pizza if not for the relatively small size of the pizza. Service was quick and the servers were nice as well when they let me know that they didn't have the 2 beers I was looking for.. overall a good place for a dinner option in a pinch if you're looking for pizza! read more

I was really impressed by Lily's. I came by on a Tuesday night for their Taco Tuesday special ($2 for chicken and steak, $3 for shrimp). Considering they're not a Mexican restaurant, the tacos were pretty solid, especially at the price. There were signs on the outside of the restaurant for some of their other themed nights, which I believe included karaoke. The interior is really fun and funky, but the real star of the show is the patio area, which is nestled between two buildings. The area isn't very large, but it's decorated nicely with artwork and string lights. I was surprised to see it wasn't too busy, as I came after work on a beautiful Spring evening. Most people outside were standing by the bar area, so service at the outdoor tables was a bit slower, but we had no trouble ordering. I would definitely return to Lily's, especially for Taco Tuesday! read more

We had the crispy mozzarella, buffalo dip, and pepperoni pizza with added cherry peppers. The mozzarella was good, but it had a taste like it was fried in dirty oil. It wasn't terrible, but it was noticeable. Buffalo dip was a step up from normal. The pizza...oh my gosh the pizza!!! We love pizza and have recently had pies in NYC and New Haven. This pizza at Lily's was INCREDIBLE. Crust was fabulous. The sauce was fresh and exploding with flavor. The pepperonis were also very flavorful. The addition of cherry peppers was perfection. read more

Patio with games and an outdoor bar is a killer move in the middle of the financial district. Walk past this place by morning and it's part of the nondescript storefronts, darkened a bit by the surrounding tall buildings. As the day goes, this place heats up like Jayson Tatum in a fourth quarter stretch. Front of house is your standard decent cocktail bar. Pizzas here were a surprise -- they are outstanding. Found all of the servers to be enthusiastic and friendly. The star here has to be the patio -- you can walk through the bar or enter directly on the parallel street into this turf-lined area with corn hole and other lawn games. Grab a beer -- share a pizza! In the two months of summer that is Boston, this place is packed. read more

I think I have to update this review because I've been here so many times, and the service at tables is not good! No one comes, and my husband and I have learned sitting at the bar is the only way. They have one good bartender but the rest of the staff needs some replacing/refreshing. Food is still on point, which is why I didn't drop it to a three. Buffalo rangoons and pizza all the way! read more

My coworkers and I stopped here for dinner after work on a Wednesday and it was great! The place was packed!! Definitely seems others had the same idea as us. There was lots of big groups of people here after work, which kind of made it hard to get a table. But also makes for a fun environment. It is loud, busy and lively! Food is great! They have a wide variety of options: pizza, salads, burgers, tacos, nachos and unique twists! They offer 2 types of spring rolls: steak & cheese and chicken parm! They also have buffalo chicken rangoons. Overall we had a great time! If you're looking for a quaint quiet place to have a family dinner, this ain't it. Come here expecting a lively, young adult crowd! read more

I had a reservation here and they canceled with one hour's notice due to booking 2 private events that day. When I called about it, the manager did nothing to ease the situation or offer any sort of compensation for the extreme inconvenience it caused me. It completely ruined my plans for the night and I will never return as I cannot count on them to uphold a reservation in case something like a "private event" comes along and they want to cancel reservations in hopes they can make more money that night! I used to like this restaurant but I will never return! read more

Came here and sat out on their front patio - it was a very cute vibe. I tried the Margherita pizza which was very yummy - it's the perfect size for 1 person and I had a few slices left over to bring home. Really nice thin crust and fresh tasting ingredients. Only downside was the service was a little slow and had to flag down our waiter for the check. Would definitely recommend if you're downtown! read more

Boston in the cold isn't fun because of that polar blast of freezing air coming from the waterfront. Looking for a decent meal I popped into Lily's thinking the pizza looked yummy based on photos I saw on Yelp. The inside decor is really cute but I found the tall tables along the wall to be in really close proximity to each other. If you want private conversation this is NOT the place to come to. On a date trying to run game? Don't do it here because the table next to you might judge you as they over hear your conversation being so close to you. Thankfully I wasn't on any type of date otherwise I may have gone home with blue balls cause the guy next to me might have ruined my game and stolen my date as he overheard my lame pickup lines. Ha! Pizza I ordered was ok at best. I really thought it was a brick oven type style pizza but the plain cheese pizza almost looked like a frozen pizza. While it certainly didn't taste like frozen pizza it didn't exactly taste like someone tossed the dough around and made it by hand. Would I stop in again? Probably not! Sadly the Hard Rock Cafe I visited years ago in the Boston area was gone otherwise I would have stopped in there for decent grub and nostalgia. read more

I came here recently for a friends birthday and we all had a great time. The decorations inside were a cool 90s vibe. There's also outdoor seating and a separate outdoor patio area where people can reserve for private events. I really enjoyed the pizzas! The crust is thin and lightly crispy. The crust itself had good flavor too. For our large party we got to try all except the cheesy ricotta pizza. My favorites were the Bang Bang Cauliflower, Artisan Smoked Pepperoni, and Buffalo Chicken. But all were good! Just depends on your toppings preference. read more

11/10. This place was awesome, from the decor/vibes to the amazing bar staff! Will absolutely be back and bringing my friends and coworkers.
