Regina Pizzeria

Nice place. Great service despite how busy they were.
The food was sadly disappointing.
I don't like to write negative reviews, but I have to mention this place.
Once again, service was really good. The place was extremely busy and packed. Our server was very friendly and attentive despite how many people were there.
We ordered a Pollo Regina. It came in a relatively timely manner. The toppings were fresh and quality was good and could be tasted. Sadly, the crust was undercooked. We noticed the pizzas at the different tables were all inconsistent in how they arrived. Some appeared burnt. Some appeared half burnt. Some, like ours, looked fine on the outside. Ours was definitely undercooked. This, obviously, took away from the overall experience.
The place has a lot of hype. If you want to experience a Boston fixture, then you should check it out. However, it may be a gamble to get a good pizza.

I was suggested this pizza spot by three people in Boston. Two different friends and our Uber Driver, often saying it’s some of the best pizza in Boston. I was suggested the shrimp scampi pizza but unfortunately it was no longer on the menu. Nonetheless, we ordered a pepperoni and the GIAMBOTTA. So good!!! Ingredients were super fresh and that crust?! WHEW! You can tell their oven is that of legend. I picked up the pies as take-out but the venue was BUZZING inside. Full of infectious energy that made me wish I had time to wait for a seat. It felt like one of those local, exciting, neighborhood pizza spots you see in movies or on television. This was the only pizza I had in Boston, but I was satisfied.

We had dinner at Regina’s Pizza and it was absolutely worth it. There was a line outside for about 15–20 minutes, but once we got in, we completely understood why — the place is fantastic.

The atmosphere is very original and full of character, which makes the experience even more special. The staff were super friendly and attentive from the moment we sat down.

They also offer vegetarian options, which we really appreciated. And as a bonus, most of the cheeses they use are pasteurized, which makes it a safe option during pregnancy — something that gave us extra peace of mind.

The quality of the food was outstanding. Honestly, one of the best pizzas we’ve ever had. We left very happy and would definitely come back!

Regina Pizzeria is hands down the best pizza I have had outside of New York City, and in my opinion it is one of the best pizza spots in all of Boston.

You can feel the history the second you walk in. There are two locations you can go to, but I definitely prefer this one because the vibe is just on another level. The exterior has that classic old Boston character, and the inside has a real old school feel with the wooden chairs and benches that make it feel authentic. Between the awards, the badges, and all the history on the walls, you can tell this place has earned its reputation.

I had the pepperoni pizza, and it was phenomenal from the very first bite. The fact that it is cooked in a brick oven makes a huge difference. The crust had that perfect texture with just the right amount of crisp on the outside while still being soft and chewy inside. The cheese, sauce, and oils all came together so well that my taste buds honestly woke up immediately. Everything about the pizza tasted rich, balanced, and full of flavor. The sauce had a great tang, the cheese was hot and perfectly melted, and the pepperoni brought that salty, slightly spicy bite that tied the whole thing together. It was the kind of pizza where every single slice tastes just as good as the first. I honestly wanted to order another pie right after finishing mine.

The service was decent, but definitely expect a wait because this place stays packed. Once you taste the pizza, it makes complete sense why people keep lining up for it. They also have a lot of options on the menu, so there is plenty to choose from.

This place has been around for over 100 years, and after eating here, it is easy to understand why. I will always come back to this pizzeria.

Great pizza!! Maybe a little bit over hyped but it was still super duper good. I think a place like Regina's can get talked up so much that when you go, you don't know what you're expecting but you expect to have a life changing experience. But that's a tough ask for a pizza restaurant. I'd highly encourage someone to go—you won't regret it. But tempter your expectations to a realistic level.
