Then we had a margharita pizza and some pasta. The pasta was tasty (got the sausage bucatini) but the pizza was FANTASTIC. It was perfectly cooked. I'm not kidding when I say it's one of the best pizzas I've had. We came on a Friday at 5ish and there were plenty of seats although we did have a reservation. Interior is beautiful. Perfect for a date night, dinner with a friend, or bringing your family. Kelcey was our server and she was fantastic (and was really good with kids!). Can't comment on parking as we walked there. HIGHLY recommend this place and hope to come back when we visit next.

Both were spot on. The pasta had this rich tomato sauce with burrata on top, really hearty and delicious. The wine pairing made it even better. Also got the oysters which were phenomenal. Honestly the bartenders made the whole night. Friendly, knew their stuff, and made a solo work trip dinner actually fun. Really nice vibe inside and will definitely be back next time I'm in Boston.

The wood-fired crust was excellent, with that perfect combination of crispy edges, a little char, and a soft, chewy center. The Meatball & Ricotta was hearty and flavorful, and the creamy ricotta balanced the meatballs really well. The Sausage & Onion was another winner, really tasty and well executed. The Honey Bacon Bianca was probably the most interesting of the three and definitely stood out. The salty, smoky bacon with the sweetness from the honey was a great combination, especially on a white pizza. Sharing a few different pizzas is definitely the way to go here because you get to try a little bit of everything. Fun atmosphere, really good wood-fired pizza, and a place I'd happily come back to next time I'm in Brookline.

I usually try to get pictures, but I had a light lunch so both slices were demolished. I got a pepperoni slice and a Sicilian cheese slice and also a fountain drink - Pepsi. $13 (I can't remember if it was with tip or not, but I would pay it again). The guy at the counter was nice enough and it has a cute little old school pizza spot vibe (probably because it is one). After 5 minutes, it was ready and I was headed out. I ate these in my parking spot to give reference to the hunger I was having. Can I say how refreshing it is to get slices that aren't burnt to hell? Don't get me wrong - there's the brick over and wood-fired and all that. Okay, I get it, but some places just absolutely burn the eff out of your crust just to reheat and you end up with acrid cardboard slices covered in grease. I tried the foldable pepperoni slice first and yes, it's a bit greasy but we love it. Very tasty and everything worked well; crust had a nice chew and the cheese/sauce/pepperoni all worked very well together. That Sicilian slice sent me; such a nice bite that I was cussing in my car about it (in a good way). Are these Michelin level? No. Do you want a solid slice that you won't be upset about spending money on? Stop by here.

Starving, I returned home from work one afternoon with absolutely nothing in my fridge. i remembered seeing a pizza menu somewhere on the counter, and I searched ravenously through our menu drawer to pull out the one for Village Pizza. I was ecstatic to find a wide variety of amazing toppings: mushrooms, artichoke hearts, Italian sausage, the works. I immediately dialed for delivery, and felt my stomach relax as I was sure I had a delicious pizza on the way. Make a long story short, when I opened the pizza box I was shocked. Unbelievably thick and greasy, I could eat only one slice of the monster before contemplating dumping the entire pie in the trash. Keeping in mind that I paid over 30 dollars for a pie and soda, I thought better of the action, but still felt queasy finishing just one more slice of the pie. My word of advice: don't be tricked by the fancy menu and seemingly fresh toppings. Village Pizza is an overpriced option for mediocre pizza when you have no other choice. read more

I believe this place is permanently closed. I've called them twice this week to place an order. The phone number just ring and rings! Nobody ever answers the phone?! I will say that dver since the previous owners sold it to some Indian people?! No I'm not racist, but what in the Hell do people from India know about prepair, pizzas, subs and traditional Italian cuisine?! Do yourself a big favor! If this place is even still open....Avoid it like plague of locast!! I remember like 5 or 6 years ago, I ordered a pizza from this place, unaware that it had been sold. Some rude Indian boy (The owner's ignorant son), showed and threated me using expletives and dropping thr "F-Bomb!" I hung up and immediately called the Villiage Pizza House, a Indian woman answered, I explained that the delivery driver was her son and that he has a temper, but means we'll! I will NEVER, EVER order from place like this@ read more

Ordered cheeseburger once and it was slathered in Mayo, which I didnt order as I dont like mayo. Inconsistency does occur here Once ordered a pizza half and half and seems they gave me half a just cooked pizza and the other side was a bit bigger but was sitting out for awhile, was obvious; luke warm/cold. Had an order that was very late on delivery, but Tanthony's never called us to tell us it would be late, could have also texted or emailed, when we inquired we were told it would be there soon. 20-30 min later It wasnt so called again. was told their was traffic, I could have walked there and back twice. I was hosting a friendover. When it was delivered the food was cold, so they made it an hour or so before and let it sit. So we are now re-thinking this place, as we wanted to support this local area but they are not supporting us back or at least having common decency to let us know the food will be late. They should have waited for the driver to tell them when he was on his way back and start making the food. We like to tip in person So I guess unless you tip ahead of time (The Bribe nowadays) You dont first dibs on delivery. We went here a few many weeks ago and ordered burgers from inside the restaurant. The girl with the pay pad wanted us to sign and accept, She already put down a tip for herself, a dollar, we had to hit Zero. Guess she thought we wouldnt see it. I used to know the ppl that ran the place a few years ago, I moved back to Boston and I dont recognize anyone there now. went from Italians to hispanics and asians, perhaps it got sold?

The pizza was out pretty quickly and I was excited to taste it. The one issue is was that it was really hot. I waited and finally took a bite. The pizza (see pic) was very thin and somewhat greasy. I blame the grease on the fact that it was a slice and not a fresh full pizza. I am not sure if I am right, but that was what it seemed like. The slices were good size and a solid taste. I liked it.
