Picco

I’ve been coming here a long time for ice cream, probably the best in the area like many other reviews have attested to. The dark chocolate sorbet might be my favorite frozen treat in Boston. It is everything I wish chocolate ice creams were: rich and fudgy without being overwhelmingly sweet and heavy.

I only recently tried their pizzas (got take out) and they really did not disappoint!! I got the sausage fennel and the muffuletta. Both briny, meaty and delicious in their own ways. For those of you that do not like too much char on pizzas, I would highly encourage you to order the pizzas “lightly cooked” contrary to the warning against this that is on their website. It made for a delightfully chewy and airy crust that was like a nice piece of bread you could probably dip in sauce or olive oil to end the slice. Here’s a closeup shot of the crust for color.

I made reservations to sit inside. There were other tables open. So I don't know if the reservations were necessary. There is outdoor seating as well. We shared a grilled chicken Caesar salad and a pepperoni pizza. The chicken was moist and perfectly grilled. The pizza was so good. The sauce tasted like the tomatoes were had squeezed and the mozzarella cheese was so yummy. The pepperoni were the old style that curl when cooked. There was a perfect char on the crust. There was a little flop to the pizza. But it was so delicious. I will be back. We also tried some of their house made ice cream. We brought 2 pints home. Great place. Great service. Great food. You won't be disappointed.

Delicious pizza with a crispy crust, paired with a refreshing IPA. Ended with their house-made ice cream, which was delicious. Overall a great spot for pizza, beer, and dessert. They also have other options in the menu.

Only thing to note is they add a ‘kitchen service’ fee on the bill in addition to tips, which was unexpected.

Still, worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Last min decision to come here for lunch and we couldn't rave more about the experience. Our server, Grace, was a delight. Pizza was light and crispy. Chicken riggie was substantial without feeling heavy. The ice creams are home-made! Love the hot honey wings too!!

I thought a place couldn’t make good ice cream and pizza at the same time: I was wrong. The ice cream here is top notch. Definitely worth a visit.

I only tried the ice cream, and decided to take the caramel swirl.

The ice cream here has a really unique texture: it’s very rich and creamy, almost like fudge. The caramel flavour was delicious and kept me coming back for more, and I really liked that there were actual swirls of thick liquid caramel mixed into the ice cream.

It’s really close to 5 stars: only thing missing is a pinch more sea salt in my opinion, and this might have been the best caramel ice cream in Boston.

Definitely worth a try, will come back to try the pizza as well!
