WHO WE ARE
“I wanted to do a place with good Italian comfort food. The simplicity of it, the freshness of it, the quality of ingredients that you get to work with.”
They specialize in that quintessential Italian comfort food – pizza.
“I think it’s great that the city of Boston is turning around and starting to become known for pizza like the other big cities in the country,” he said. “It is such a simple food but it all comes down to the quality of ingredients.”
It’s all done out of an open kitchen where the star of the show is Molinari’s wood burning oven.
