Very happy with my greek salad w chicken. Tasty good portion. Eat here and you will be satisfied

Good food, nice guys been coming in for a couple months now. Calzone is a must, Gyros are good for the price, wish they had a larger gyro size, but all in all incredibly place. read more

What a gem! The extensive menu gave me pause because it is usually a sign that everything is mediocre. Not here! I ordered greek, my companions ordered pizza and burger and all of it was fresh, delicious and in very generous portions. The service was quick and friendly and even the regulars eating there made us feel welcome. Wish I lived closer to eat there often! read more

My daughter had a tour for Boston University set up in the afternoon and needed to grab something relatively quick for lunch. She wanted pizza, I love gyros, and was a 5 minute walk to the admissions building so win-win-win. It is a very casual environment, nothing fancy about. We walked up to the counter to order and the guys working were awesome! Had some great conversation, very polite/relatable, and were appreciative for our business. Food was ready fairly quickly. My daughter ordered a slice of plain pizza (not pictured) which was big. Asked her how it was and she said it was really good! She said one slice was more than enough. Gyro was fantastic! A very full sandwich (no skimping on anything) and was mighty tasty with a great balance between the meat, vegetables, and sauce. Went out of necessity and turned out to be a great find, would definitely go back! read more

Nice little place to grab a slice(mega) and enjoy the view! Food was great and the service was friendly

Haven't been back to boston for years now, but i still remember how delicious my bacon and cheese calzone was. Thinking of taking a trip back there just to have one again lol. Glad to see them still in business. read more

UGrill is a BU staple, and I will always be shocked how it remains a bit of a hidden gem (despite being in the center of campus) to students for their first few years at BU (I didn't discover it till I was a senior!) It has been a hit ever since I tried it, and they do a great business with staff/faculty too, (I feel lucky I worked at BU for five years undergrad so got to go frequently!) The family (dad and brothers) who own the place are the kindest people, always willing to chat, and recognize their "regulars" right away. Great fries and subs, and BIG portions, I tend to stick with those since they are so good, but heard great things about their gyros and just about everything else as well. I was so happy this little gem survived COVID, and hope it is around for years to come. Though its a bit out of the way for me now, I will always come visit! read more

Got their mega slice and have tried their burger. When they served me the burger the buns were all already wet and soggy so I had to eat the burger with a knife and fork. The pizza is good but not amazing. The price is good read more

Vey friendly owners and a great place for a sub!

Stopped by University Grill & Pizza on a Saturday night for dinner. I'd been working late on campus and wanted to try something new. I had walked passed University Grill & Pizza many times and never really given it much thought. So I decided to finally give it a try. The place was surprisingly full for a Saturday night. I decided to try the Greek Salad Roll-Up. It came out fast and was HUGE! It was the length of my elbow to my wrist. The pita was wrapped so nicely around the lettuce, tomato, onions, olives, cucumbers, and feta. It was truly a wonderful Greek salad in wrap form. And for the price, it was definitely worth it! Glad to have discovered a new spot to get a fresh wrap when I want my Mediterranean fix. read more

I usually go early for a gyro or a pizza! They get jam packed really quickly, so going early is always a good idea. They're fairly priced, have good food and extremely friendly to students. This was my first meal as a student at BU, and they made me feel welcome! read more

Very friendly to all customers, especially students. Great service and great food, I recommend

I was overwhelmed by the number of menus. However beside the menu, there is nothing special. I ordered Philly burger, it was just Philly burger with a lot of fries. If you really want to eat junky food, you can eat a lot of fries with burger. read more

I was seriously missing NY pizza but this place saved me. I got their well known 'mega slice' and yes it was a lot but I managed to finish it because it was that delicious. My friend and I came here after a final just to treat ourselves. It's located right inside of BU campus and I recommend this to college students just trying to get good pizza beside dominoes.. Owners are very friendly and welcoming! read more

Awesome food & a great group of guys running the business. So many great meals during my undergrad days.

"What can I get you buddy/honey?" - the guy who takes most of the orders at this BU stalwart is considered charming by some and annoying to others. I personally don't mind him. Calling me buddy is fine - it'll be interesting if he ever calls me honey though. I ate a quick cheap dinner here on my first trip to Boston and was bewildered by the menu. Like most greek-run takeaway joints they covered as many cuisines as they could - pizza, burgers, gyros and subs. I asked what was good - and it was chicken parm sub. And it was good. So brownie points to buddy/honey man for the suggestion. Don't get me wrong - this isn't world-class cuisine but if you need a hearty lunch around BU and you don't mind a 20 min wait at lunchtime then this is a good option. Buddy. read more

Are you near BU? Are you hungry? Do you have cash money in your pocket? Do you want a sub, burger, or pizza? Do you not want to spend a lot of money? Do you want friendly employees to serve you? Do you want a clean place to eat? If you answered Yes to the above questions.... then you need to try University Grill & Pizza. I had the bacon burger with fries... nom nom nom, *licks lips*, nom nom NOM! Fries could have been a bit crispier, but still good, and honey mustard was great addition. Word to the wise, their yellow mustard on the burger will stain your fingers yellow, so be careful when you eat not to get it on you! Napkins are your friend. read more

U Grill was on my bucket list of places to check out while at BU. For the past three years, I've walked by U Grill without so much a glance, but I decided to take the chance this summer to try it out. How regretful I am to have not discovered its awesomeness sooner. Admittedly, I've only tried the chicken soulvaki & gyro (both Greek items) since there's a mysterious lack of Greek food in Boston. Seeing as the establishment is run by a Greek family, you know the Greek food is authentic here. Compared to the "Greek food" served at Steve's on Newbury St., U Grill is like a blessing in a college sub shop disguise. I wasn't interested in the burgers, pizza or subs, but I do hear that U Grill can excel in these items too! I now have to resist the urge to order a chicken soulvaki here every week. read more

The U Grill is a subshop on Comm Ave located near Boston University. It is definitely the go to place for takeout in the neighborhood... the people that own it are super nice.. no seriously so nice. They greet everyone with a smile and are so genuine with it. So they have your basic subshop items.. and they also have Greek food too. Their gyro is AMAZING! The yogurt/cucumber sauce on it is so delicious too.. What I usually have from there are the basics like BLTs, eggplant parm subs, salads, and even a hotdog ... and they are all delicious and something we want to go back for when we're in the area. LOVE these Greek boys! (and they are cute too, so that doesn't hurt!) read more

University Grill is a great place to grab a bite to eat right before a class. It has the convenience of a deli, but the menu of a diner. Family-owned and operated, you can tell by tasting the food that the guys have pride in their business. That said, you haven't LIVED until you have had a gyro from U Grill! Because the family is Greek, you won't find any frozen lamb slices here - you watch as they cut off the meat cooking on a spit right in front of you! You can top it anyway you want (onions, tomatoes, lettuce), but don't skimp out on the homemade Tzatziki! YUM! If you like gyros - you'll love them at U Grill. If you've never had a gyro - make sure your first is at U Grill If you hate gyros - try one from U Grill, and you might change your mind! But do yourself a favor...when you order a gyro from a Greek, pronounce it "yee-roh." After all, you wouldn't order "gah-no-chee" (gnocchi) for dinner at an Italian restaurant, would you? read more

I can has cheeseburger? I go tos U-Grill. Veggie wraps is good. French fry nom. nom. NOM. Cash only is. Is best food stop at univer-city bosstown. Is it can be u grill tiem now pleeze? read more

It isn't very pricey, the guys working there are nice, and the burgers, wraps, and fries are better than Rhett's or any place nearby. The only problem is the lack of seating inside, but there isn't anything they can do about that. Plus if you're having a bad day there's nothing better grabbing a pile of steaming, crispy french fries and a coke. And in that sense this place delivers big time. read more

Big Ups to University Grill & Pizza! Was up by BU and just walked by as my stomach was rumbling, so thought we'd stop in. We both had burgers, and may I say... "UM!" Sloppy and tasty- just the way I like 'em! White Cheddar was a nice little touch. Fries were good too, though they could have been just a little bit more cooked. Kudos to the staff, too. Definitely a close-knit bunch... Super friendly and laid back... made for a fun "dining experience" :-P !! So... Food: great; Price: totally reasonable; Staff: awesome... Overall a solid 4 star! Will definitely stop in again for another tasty meal when I find myself back by BU. read more

Oh U Grill...This is going to be emotional... I went to ENG at BU, so I pulled my fair share of All Nighters, and U Grill kept me warm in those winter nights. U Grill feed me Italian cold cuts sandwiches in the hot summers. U Grill's cheese steak helped me through the exams period, and its meatball sandwich re-stalled my wills of push forward on the projects. U Grill was great, it had became a part of my college experience. I haven't been back to Boston since I left 4 years, when I go back, I will surely stop by UGrill again. read more

During my college years, one of my favorite places to nosh. Their wraps & fries = perfect grub for college student. Fairly healthy too. read more

The staff is really nice and friendly. There is a huge menu and really good food. I just pounded down a chicken parm sub and it was delicious. Their buffalo chicken fingers were huge pieces of chicken and they were awesome. AND on top of all that the prices are wicked good. I can't wait to go back. read more

I once said that studying = 60% eating ... Without food during finals.. me = not a happy camper.. You can imagine my feeling during finals week when the clock struck 9 and I realized I hadn't had dinner yet. no bueno. luckily.... University Grill and Pizza was still open! for six dollars you get a whopping slice of pizza and a bottle of soda. mmmmm I took the last slice of pepperoni that night. twas amazing. If you do pizza takeout.. get a buncha napkins! They toss the pizza in a little brown bag... which means grease galore. Quick and tasty. filling to your stomach.. read more

Almost everything I've eaten here has been awesome. I would recommend: any pizza (especially a slice), any burger, or any sub. Their fries aren't bad either, and the Greek salad is as advertised. I tried their pasta once (I got pasta with chicken and broccoli) and it was sub-par (pretty much flavorless, however it was a very generous portion)... So basically just don't order that and it's the best place ever. The guys who run this place are always friendly and easy to talk to. I can only imagine what it's like to see a new customer walk into this restaurant with a glazed look over their eyes, staring at the big menu on the wall (must be maddening), and they've always been patient until you were ready to order (at least in my experiences). So go eat here already! Oh, and it's cheap. read more

I don't go to UGrill often but I always enjoy my food when I do. It's pretty standard American/Greek fare - the chicken gyros and burgers are great. I always see the same guy working the counter, he's super sweet and cute. read more

Very good bugers, fries, and of course as my microprocessors partner , Shawn F. mentioned, BBQ steak wrap. I work next door and it's great to drop in and get a quick meal on my lunch break. Friendly Staff, fast service, Great hangout for computer system engineers. read more

I love University Grill. I work at BU, and when I eat out for lunch, it is usually where I end up. It's a family owned business that is very small and gets very crowded, so I have a menu on my desk and call ahead to get my order for pick-up. I've always had friendly service, and they are always willing to give me a pickle instead of cole slaw. The prices are great and the portion sizes generous. They have a daily special that can cater directly to the family's Greek roots. I never say no when moussaka is the special. read more

Great place to get a gyro and fries! The staff is always super friendly and efficient. I am not a huge fan of their pizza and sandwiches but the gyros, the chicken fingers and the fries keep me coming back. It can get pretty crowded in here so I'd recommend getting everything to-go and bringing it home, or, in the summer, crashing some place across the street at BU and having your meal al fresco. read more

I went to school here and just visited - I've forgotten how good these guys are! Burgers, all day breakfast, sandwiches, REASONABLE PRICES, and the guys behind the counter are all super-cool. If you go to BU take a break from the dining halls, stay away from Subway down the block, and take a trip here! read more

Never had a better pizza slice in my life, so i bought another, then another. Each "slice" is actually two slices and it's so inexpensive i don't see how this place isn't more well known. On top of all this the employee was the nicest and most efficient, even during the busy lunch hours. He was very friendly, chatting with the customers when he could. If you don't try this, then I'm sorry for you. read more

Really good food, fast service, friendly employees! Place was jammed when I went but line went by so fast. Disappointed I've been at BU 4 years and this was my first time there!! Definitely will be back & I recommend to all students!! read more

Pros: This place is really good. Highly recommend the triple cheeseburgers for the real hungry, or even the buffalo chicken dinner. Food here taste great, the people that work here are real friendly and awesome, and price is not even that bad. I would start with the gyro, then work your way up with dinners if you like the place. Cons: Closes at 10:00 PM which sucks No bathroom Dining place kinda sucks but it is alright. read more

I go to BU and whenever I walk by this place I always wanted to try. I really like gyro but I couldnt find a good gyro near campus or my apartment. They were advertising gyro so one day I just went in. Gyro was really good! It had A LOT of meat inside! But because it had too much meat and little bit of lettuce and tomatoes, it was a bit too salty for my taste. But it was still so good so I went back a week after. Ordered gyro again but this time I asked them to put less meat and more veggies, which came out to be even more delicious than the first time!!! It wasnt too salty and had more fresh taste. People working there are very nice. Place is pretty small and it tends to get packed during lunch hour since its right in the center of university campus. read more

University Grill & Pizza - Gyro - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

It was absolutely hoppin' at lunch time here. I got a small pizza for just six dollars. It's a little on the greasy side and it's sort of in the greek style which others have mentioned. However, it's what I would call good bad pizza. Sometimes I crave different kinds of pizza and while this is no elegant margherita pizza, I happily wolfed this down in ten minutes. Since I just moved right next door I am sure this will become a late night staple for me. I can't wait to try some of the sandwiches. The guys who own the place are great! Also even though plenty have mentioned that it's cash only I feel like mentioning it again. It's just become so rare for places in Boston not to take cards. It's not like this is the North End- it's a busy college area! While they have prominent signs displayed to make sure you're aware, I find it to be a bit of a drawback. read more

Moving into BU three years ago as a freshman was daunting as hell. The first night, the dining hall wasn't open yet, so I wandered outside and decided on a burger for the night. And the closest place was UGrill. I've been going back ever since. Pros: -HUGE PORTIONS. HOLY. MOTHER. OF. GOD. For $10, you can get a 1-pound triple bacon cheeseburger with all the toppings and fries and a damn drink!! The hangover can kiss my ass!! -Great subs. The Chicken Parm is as good as it gets around here, and the gyros are tasty and very authentic, including the tzatiki sauce with yogurt and cucumber. -Awesome service. It's a family-owned joint with three brothers, who are all pretty cool and friendly towards the hordes of BU kids streaming in and out every day. Cons: -They used to not take cards. They do now. HALLELUJAH. -Fries are a bit soggy at times. -Salads are great, but the chicken is dry sometimes when it's busy. Overall, this is a BU institution that is almost a rite of passage for BU kids. If you need food fast, friendly, and friggin delicious, then UGrill will do you good. read more

I been going to the U Grill since back in 2001 when I landed in Boston as a freshmen at BU. 10 years later and 2 degrees under the belt and I still make it a point to drop in whenever I find myself in that part of town. The owners are great and are real Greeks who make you feel like your part of the family. While their may be a better burger joint in Boston, if your on campus this is definitely the sport to go. read more
