Best pizza
Despite the raft of gourmet-pizza shops that have sprung up around Boston (three in Cambridge alone last
year), pizza lovers in the Hub are very specific about what they want: a nice slice of traditional pie,
with glistening mozzarella and tangy tomato sauce. (You can keep your capers and goat cheese, thank you
very much.) No surprise, then, that elder statesmen such as Bertucci's and Pizzeria Regina topped the
Phoenix charts. Both are brick-oven pizzerias, but Bertucci's pies come bundled with toppings on a thicker
crust; those at Pizzeria Regina yield up vast slices thin enough to fold and eat. Bertucci's adds salads
and pastas to the mix; Pizzeria Regina tosses in calzone. In either case, every bite is a local tradition.
