I got take out, a regular cheese pizza, and I just don't like the sweet sauce. I can see why some people could like it but I think the sauce is almost as sweet as candy which I don't like for a pizza. For the rest of the pizza, the crust was ok not great. The crust sorta felt and looked like a mass produced dough and the cheese is fine. They seem like a good buissness.
The first time we went here my boyfriend and I ordered to dine in and I saw a mouse run across the floor. When I mentioned it to the staff, they just look at one another as if they already knew about it. Hope they resolved this issue.
Related to the pie we had: the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre pizza is sooo good. My boyfriend doesn’t care for the sweet sauce but I loved the taste of every slice. The people who work there are very nice.
Why is the pizza different everything time I go? Don’t get me wrong the pizza is good but the consistency is just not there. When the owner is in I can count on the pizza being the little Italy pizza I know. I don’t like playing the guessing game on if the pizza will be good or not every time I open the box.
The Fenway used to be one of my favorite pies of all time. What I received tonight was a soggy, floppy mess that was stuck to the bottom of the box. Wasn’t going to write anything when this happened a month ago but twice in a row definitely warrants a review… sad to be writing this.
Stopped in randomly when passing through Beverly. I enjoyed being able to see and hear the hard work of the open kitchen. It was a relaxing atmosphere in the dining area. The pepperoni pizza was pretty good. The sauce is sweet, and definitely tasty. I would definitely eat here again.
