We asked the guy at the Hilton front desk for the best pizza...there are so many choices in the north end. He told us Regina's, don't look anywhere else. So we made the trek up to Thacher...it's not in the middle of all the Italian places, but not too far, either. Of course we had blistering heat on July 4 and there was a line. We were told 20 minutes to wait and the line did move as promised. Note that there were some locals in line with us. Regina's is not a tourist trap. We wanted to do a half and half pizza with pepperoni and chicken pesto, but were told you had to do a "build your own" for that. Two small pizzas were not too much higher in cost than a large. Prices are reasonable, we spent less than $50 for two small pizzas and two drinks. The pizzas were very good and the crust was excellent. Service was good. The place is small and I hear the Thacher location is better than the Fanueil Hall location. The menu has quite a few options, including a couple of vegetarian pizzas. read more

My top pizza place by the slice this trip. Can only get cheese or pepperoni for takeout or bar seating. More options if you dine in. A slice of pizza was about $5. Ordered at counter and waited outside. They take card or cash. Brought out the slice in a few minutes. Pizza was hot and had a crispy crust. The cheese and pepperoni tasted fresh. Good texture and held well. read more

I have high standards for pizza coming from NY/NJ, but I came in with an open mind as I was starving for a slice. But as you can see the dough was literally raw. Shocked this was mentioned as one of the best pizzas in Boston. But I like the option that you can go in and just order by the slice instead of waiting in the long line outside. For others.. but not for me. read more

An institution fior us! I am been coming to the OG Regina's since I was a kid! That oven bakes the BEST Cheese Pizza in the country! 100 years old now and still serving lines of people out the door! We ordered our usual Cheese Pizza but only a 10" so we would have room for dessert at Modern Pastry (dine in!). I tried their own brand of cream soda, it was excellent! Pizza as expected, amazing. That crust, even char marks on underneath! Our server was Cidia. She was great and very friendly. They are very busy and yet very patient and nice. Great food and service, that keeps us all coming back! Here's to 100 more years! read more

First in line because I'm no slacker! I walked from Back Bay to preburn calories and dug into my personal pepperoni pizza like a wild child! Freaking ate just about every bite. Wish I could go all the time but it's a hell or a ride from AZ lol. read more

BEST. PIZZA. EVER. Well maybe not ever, but this pizza is out of this world. Perfect crisp of the crust, perfect ratio of ingredients, perfect temperature, perfect homemade taste. I would put this up there in my top 3 pizzas I have ever had. There was a good size line when we arrived around 11:30am, but the line moves faster than you think. Totally worth the wait either way. This is the first place I'm coming back to if I am ever in Boston again. read more

New York style pizza done well! The crust was so crispy, flavorful and thin. Despite all the juicy grease from the fresh pepperoni it never got soggy or fell apart! It came out super fresh and it's a super solid pick for your classic pepperoni slice! Note: if you want a slice you can only get cheese or pepperoni sadly :( read more

This pizza was absolutely incredible. Literally heaven in my mouth I would 1000% recommend going here. The line is definitely worth the wait. We were in town for a week and we went at the beginning and at the end of the week because it was that good. I would probably say that this is the best pizza I've ever had. I don't even like pepperoni pizza but when I tried Regina's pepperoni pizza, I fell in love. read more

Pizza was very good I also loved seeing all the famous people that have been there. The service was okay.

I'll start by saying that I was HIGHLY skeptical before heading here for pizza and some beers before a game at the TD Garden. I typically avoid chain locations and had associated Regina Pizzeria with airport/mall locations but a Reddit subthread really pushed me to giving the original location in the North End a try. It was absolutely worth the visit. The location is literally stuck in the past - in a good way. People are friendly, until you ask a dumb question or make their life more difficult. The "elbow room" you get just literally doesn't exist. AND the food just stands on it's own. read more

We stopped for a slice of pizza while walking around the North End. Place was super packed and ended up taking a pie to eat outside for our group. The crust was crispy and thin. I've had Regina from other places and this by far exceeded others I've tried. After all, it is the original Regina Pizzeria and worth a visit. read more

We visited Regina Pizzeria the original location in the North End while our stay in Boston and it absolutely lived up to the hype. We ordered the Giambotta pizza, and it was outstanding. The dough had the perfect balance of crisp crust and chew, cooked just right, and every bite was packed with flavor. You can really taste the quality and tradition behind this pizza. This is a truly authentic pizza place, full of history and character, and it shows in the food. Simple, classic, and done extremely well. We will definitely be back next time we're in Boston. Highly recommend if you're looking for real North End pizza. read more

Ever since moving here from California, my new england born dad couldn't stop talking about Regina pizza!! He recalled the nostalgia of their food and raved about the flavors for so long that I was eager to give them a try. My friends and I stumbled upon this location walking in the north end, and got seated immediately despite our large group. The service was fast, kind, efficient, and friendly making the experience feel all the more like home. Now I know what my dad means when he talks about this spot's familial vibes, the inside is cozy and casual reminding me of the perfect "let's grab pizza" place! The food itself also helps by bringing perfectly simple yet packed with satisfying flavors you'd desire in a good slice. The crust has a nice crisp and the toppings are well portioned bringing to the table a delicious balance of flavors. I'm so glad to have stopped here for a fun night with friends, and I will definitely be back again soon! read more

This place is your no frills- come in, eat, and leave solid pizza joint. My friends and I came on a busy Friday and waited in line for about an hour. Someone monitors the line and takes account the party size, which we saw a lot of smaller tables being sat first. When we got it we ordered immediately and I got the white pizza with the pineapples and it was great! I loved the dough on the pizza- it was thin, crispy, and the crust was fabulous! This place is solid given the hype- and yes there are better pizza places out there but this place is pretty good! We were also in and out in about 40 mins! read more

We waited approx 20 min for a table for 2 on Saturday afternoon after being recommended Regina Pizzeria by a close friend. The woman at the door was really nice and gave us menus while we waited so we could be ready to order upon being seated. She told us where to sit and our waitress came by and took our order within 5-10 min of being seated. We got two 10" pizzas - pepperoni and quattro formaggio. It came out within 10 min of ordering so in the meantime, we watched some of the football game that was on the tv. The restaurant decor is very nostalgic of what a old-school pizza shop would be like. There were lots of different police badges from across the nation on the wall, as well as old pictures. The place itself is pretty small but it's not egregious, just kinda cozy. The pizzas themselves were soooo delicious! The ricotta was so prominent on the quattro pizza, I really loved it. The tomato sauce on the pepperoni pizza was 100/10, hands down some of the best I've ever had. I loved everything about it. It was reasonably priced and I would 1,000% recommend to anyone else read more

We had this pizza delivered over the weekend and enjoyed it. Their sauce was tasty and the cheese mixture was yummy as well! We got it "well done" but still think it could've been cooked longer. The crust was a little doughy and lacked flavor. Overall it was a pretty good pizza though. read more

Regina seems to be kind of polarizing, so your tastes may vary, but it's some of my favorite pizza in Boston, particularly when cooked right. It strikes a nice balance between crisp, but not burnt. Pizza has an appropriate amount of cheese, decent sauce, decent crust, etc. As far as the location, the North End Regina is the classic location. It's small, but comfortably lit. Service can admittedly vary depending on events at TD Garden, but once I'm seated, servers are prompt and friendly. read more

I am extremely disappointed by the treatment my family and I received during our visit today. We were a party of seven and had just finished our meal. As family members took turns using the restroom, my husband walked me to the restroom because I have anxiety. While we were quietly waiting, a waitress with short white hair approached my husband and told him to leave, accusing him of being "creepy" and "perverted." We were shocked by this accusation. I calmly asked her to speak to us respectfully, explaining that her behavior was unprofessional. The situation then escalated when another employee, a young African American woman, began yelling at me in Spanish, using profanity and threatening to beat me up. I told her I would call the police if she continued threatening me. Instead of de-escalating the situation, she waited outside the restroom and continued yelling at me in Spanish until my entire family left the restaurant. This happened in front of our family, including children, and made us feel intimidated and unsafe. We had spent a significant amount of money at this establishment, and no customer should ever be treated this way. I expect restaurant staff to handle concerns professionally and respectfully, not with insults, threats, or intimidation. Based on my experience, I left feeling unsafe and concerned about how customers are treated. I hope management thoroughly investigates this incident, reviews any available security footage, and takes appropriate action to ensure no other family experiences what we did. read more

Had high hopes from all the positive comments but dough was under cooked. Bad generic ingredients. Way too greasy and heavy. Flour stuck to pizza crust. Crumb was super tight and dense and had no air read more

We were in Boston for the weekend with some friends, who recommended this place, so we decided to go. Shockingly, the line wasn't that long (probably because there was a large festival in the area with plenty of surrounding food trucks). We ended up waiting 25ish minutes and were seated outdoors. We didn't interact much with the host, and the place was pretty busy attending to seated customers, but our limited interactions with him were fine and our waitress was polite. We ordered the chicken parm and rosemary ham bianco pies, and they were nothing short of phenomenal. The crusts were perfect, sauces were amazing, and toppings were delicious. I would order the entire menu if I could. Imo, the hype is real and the wait is worth it. We'll be back! read more

My husband and I, along with another couple, were in Boston for just the afternoon. Out of all the amazing places to eat in the North End, we chose Regina's Pizzeria. It wasn't our first visit, so we knew the line could be long--and we planned accordingly. Luckily, we only waited about 20 minutes. The time passed quickly as we enjoyed people-watching and chatting with the couple in line ahead of us. We ordered two 10-inch pizzas, which turned out to be the perfect amount for four hungry adults. The service and ambiance were spot on, too. read more

Can't go wrong here!!! Pizza was amazing and affordable! During our Boston vacation we were looking for Boston authentic places and came across Regina's, with so many great reviews we had to try it. It did not disappoint! Food was amazing, restaurant was full of customers and clean, and they were all very friendly and helpful (even the security guard). The only issue... the long line but worth the wait! Reason for the 4 Stars.... Fountain Drinks are $4.75 with NO free refills! RIP OFF!!! If you are charging that much for a fountain drink, it needs to come with refills!!!!! Must visit if you're in Boston! Just don't drink your soda before the pizza arrives or you'll have to buy another expensive fountain drink. read more

I ordered a large double pepperoni. They have a good pizza oven so I was expecting a good pizza. There might have been 15 very thinly sliced pepperonis on the 16" pizza, about 2 per slice. There was just enough sauce to cover the pizza (very thinly) and there was a reasonable amount of cheese. I'm just visiting Boston but if you asked me where you could get good pizza I would suggest passing on this pizzeria. read more

A family member recommended this place to my husband and me when we were in Boston and honestly they did not hype it up enough. The pizza was absolutely delicious! This pizzeria is the original location. We arrived Sunday a little bit before 5pm. We were lucky that there was only one person in front of us in line so we waited about 5 minutes before we were led into the restaurant to be seated. Once we were seated, the server immediately asked what we wanted to drink and order food wise. We needed a few minutes to decide on the food, so as soon as they brought us waters...we were ready. Looking back, I realized they are quick asking because they assume you're looking at the menu while in line and they try to turn tables swiftly. We ordered a 10" meatball pomodoro fresco to share. The pizza came in about 15 minutes. The pizza is brick oven style with high quality ingredients. After the first bite, I completely understood the popularity. The restaurant is small with tables close together to make the most of their space. It was packed inside and they were very busy with take-out orders too. We were in and out in 30 minutes. When we left, there was an even bigger line down the block to get in. The best tips I can give if you go here are to be prepared on your order and come during non peak dining hours. read more

Regina Pizzeria - Meatball Pomodoro Fresco - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Today was the first day that Regina Pizzeria opened their new spot in South Station. To give it a title it's this "Pretty Crappy". The sausage chunks taste gross, their dough is off, the pizza dries out quick, and the tasting of the toppings is mostly wiped out. I was thinking that this place would be similar to the flagship location. Which aside from the sauce, it's lacking in pretty mich every category. I don't want my pizza necessarily reheated from room temperature, because the pizza loses its flavor and appeal. It's like trying to re-cook a hamburger. This place needs to invest in up pizza, warmer, and I would even challenge the owners come to the spot because they could be making so much more money if they fix several things. The crust is too flour-y, and most of the time the crust is not cooked well enough. For my personal preference, the pizza lacks that delicious sauce. If eating flour dough and subpar flavor is your go to, this spot is for you. No offense to Regina Pizzeria - I love your pizza overall but this location is your worst. read more

The pizza was very good and lived up to the hype. I would recommend adding extra sauce and even a side of sauce. Unfortunately, the customer service left a lot to be desired. I originally ordered a pizza for takeout. While it was being prepared, I waited about 45 minutes in line to dine in. Once I finally got inside, I ordered another pizza to eat in. When my takeout pizza was ready, I asked if I could simply eat that one instead and take my dine-in pizza with me. The staff refused, saying, "Takeout orders are for takeout." That policy didn't make much sense in this situation. I had already waited in line, purchased another pizza inside the restaurant, and wasn't asking for anything free or discounted. In fact, letting me eat the takeout pizza and leave with the dine-in order would have opened up my table sooner for another customer. The food was excellent, but the rigid application of the policy and the way it was communicated made for a disappointing experience. A little flexibility and customer-focused thinking would have gone a long way. read more

Amazing pizza and environment. Place has been around forever and I've been coming here just as long. The service is quick and efficient while not coming off as rude. The environment is great, good place to eat some pizza and watch a bruins game for sure. Pizza is thin but not floppy, nice and crispy with a great tomato sauce, not overly cheesed so it wasn't just a bite of cheese. Real pepperoni. Overall amazing spot. 5/5 read more

We had to come here to try Boston's oldest pizzeria! The restaurant had that classic, no frills vibe. We were worried about the wait but on a Sunday afternoon - it was about 20 minutes- not too bad. Service was friendly and quick. We ordered a 10 inch Giambotta pie and 1 cheese slice. For two people, this was definitely enough. The large pie would've led to leftovers. I wished they offered different pies as slices so I could've tried different toppings - the cheese and pepperoni were the only ones they offered as slices. Nonetheless, we loved the Giambotta - definitely tasted the quality in its ingredients. read more

OMG! The pizza is on another level. We've had Chicago and NY Pizza, and this place rivals them both!! My son said it was the best pizza he's ever had!! They have a drizzling oil in a bottle and it adds the right touch! During our 1 week trip to Boston, we ate her twice! The line was a bit long, but moves faster than expected. The interior is what's expected of a classic pizzeria. I would not only recommend this place to everyone, I would definitely revisit it if I'm in the area again!! A must if you're in the Boston area!! read more

My mother placed an online order for two pizzas at shortly before the Burlington Mall location closed at 6PM. The order was accepted and confirmed, but when I arrived to pick it up, there was no pizza and no notification that the order couldn't be fulfilled. I wasn't expecting them to make food after closing. I simply expected someone to apologize or help us get a refund. Instead, the manager immediately dismissed me, told me to "deal with the app," and walked away twice without letting me ask any questions. Mistakes happen. Accepting an order right before closing is a system problem. Treating a customer with complete indifference is a management problem. We're still trying to recover the $42 we were charged for food we never received, and after this experience I won't be returning to this location. read more

This hurts to write, but I'm being honest. I've been coming here for over 40 years. I went in the other day and was astonished at what I was served. Not even close to the pizza from years past. No more char, large blisters, crispy crust. Even the cheese looked different. It was a floppy tasteless pizza. I'm truly shocked. I sent a photo of it to my son and he thought it looked like gas station pizza. Such a bummer. I truly hope it was an off day. read more

I am from CT where we have the pizza in the country (Zuppardi's Pepe's, Sally's, Bar, Modern, and many more!) Regina's is a great pizza spot in North Bend! We ordered several pizzas -- bacon & onion (with the bacon cooked well done), cheese, pepperoni, and sausage & pepper -- and every one was delicious. The crust was perfectly cooked and light and airy- not hard. Friendly service, l. We didn't feel rushed even though there was a line. Definitely a place we'd come back to! It is almost as good as CT pizza. read more

Food was amazing but the one star is for the service and the attitude of the workers. They think they are above all and it's all about them. They have 0 respect and 0 customer service skills. They walk away when you are trying to talk to them, and if they bother to stay they are very aggressive and confrontational. They don't know how to treat customers with respect. It wasn't just one server, it was the hostess in the front, it was the waitress with glasses and curly hair, and it was the African American waitress. Who not only were rude but stood in front of the bathroom door to loudly complain about the party while I was in the bathroom. I will never return nor recommend anyone to come here. I had a horrible experience. The problem: my party of 8 asked to be seated at two tables instead of one because they took in 5 parties of 4 people before us. read more
