Stepping into Regina’s in the North End feels like stepping into a slice of pizza history. The original location has that old-school charm—tight booths, checkered floors, and walls lined with vintage photos that remind you this place has been doing it right since 1926.
The pizza? Absolutely worth the hype. The crust is the perfect balance of crispy and chewy, with that signature char from the brick oven that gives it so much character. We ordered a classic pepperoni and a white pizza—both were phenomenal. The sauce is rich and tangy, the cheese perfectly melted and bubbling, and the toppings generous but not overdone.
Service is quick, no-frills, and efficient—exactly what you’d expect and want at a place like this. It’s casual, a little chaotic, but full of energy and tradition.
If you’re in Boston and even remotely into pizza, this place is non-negotiable. It’s a must-visit institution that lives up to the legacy. Just be prepared to wait—especially on weekends—but it’s 100% worth it.
Line looked long but moved quick. Seating was great, server was quick and efficient. Pizza was top notch! We ordered the meat lovers, was great but very hot! Hard to wait for the cool down but we managed. Highly recommend waiting in the line.
I gave it 5 stars to not upset any Bostonians :), however good it is the crispy dough, the flavor of the pizza is not in the top 3 with NY or Chicago or California ... Sorry. But as an attraction and a traditional place it holds well the 5*..
Pizza was excellent. Located in North End. The aroma when you first walk in lets you know that you are about to get your eat on. We were seated right away but it took time to get menus and our pizza took way too ling just for a cheese pizza. They did come to our table to let us know there was an error. I would highly recommend for a great thin crust pizza. Follow us @WanderingParents
Every bite is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. Long line out the door for indoor seating. Call ahead and order, even if it's for a slice or two. The cheese was velvety goodness. All the ingredients combined made for an amazing slice of pizza. 10 out of 10 would eat again.
