The Salty Pig

Casual Italian place with fun vibes. Great for groups - plenty of shareables, charcuterie and cheese boards, pizzas. The dishes all had interesting herbs and textures. I would come back to try more of the menu.

The hostess was super upbeat and clearly loves working at The Salty Pig. She is the perfect employee to set the tone for your dining experience! Our table of five received outstanding attention/service and the food was delicious. Fresh. Made to order. My husband had a pizza, he actually ate the whole thing. Our grandsons had a brisket sandwich and I had the homemade hotdog and put it over a bed of lettuce. DIVINE! Our tour guide enjoyed a turkey wrap. Next time I’ll look forward to trying their charcuterie options. All meats are made and cured in house. It smells fabulous. I highly recommend The Salty Pig.

We had such a wonderful experience at The Salty Pig. We were there with our friends. The atmosphere is fantastic — warm, lively, and truly welcoming. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful, making us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. It’s definitely a family‑friendly place, which we really appreciated.

We ordered the Margherita pizza with prosciutto for the kids, and they absolutely loved it. For the adults, we tried two pastas — the Bucatini and the Rigatoni — and both were outstanding. The pasta was cooked perfectly, not overdone and not raw, just that ideal texture that’s hard to find. And the sauces… I honestly don’t have words. So flavorful, rich, and delicious — truly unforgettable.

For dessert, we tried the chocolate hazelnut ice cream and the chocolate torta. Both were amazing — sweet, indulgent, and the perfect finish to an already fantastic meal.

We loved everything about this place, and we will definitely visit again the next time we’re in Boston.

My colleague and I decided to share the beef cheeks and the chicken Milanese (very similar to schnitzel) and the two dishes were the best we’ve had on this trip ti boston. The beef cheeks were soft and unique. We also got the olive oil cake and it was so good too. Highly recommended, and hopefully next time I can try their pastas.

Absolutely outstanding brick oven pizza! We ordered five different pizzas and a charcuterie board for a group of eight, and we destroyed every last slice. Crisp, delicious, and bursting with flavor. Highly recommend this place.
