Our favorite pizza joint in the neighborhood. They deliver (617-864-8090). Little in the way of atmosphere, and no alcohol, but great pizza. And we love the Greek salad. A short walking distance from our house.

We love this restaurant. They have a great cod entree (we don't eat meat so we haven't tried any of their many meat dishes) and a unique and delicious Ceasar salad, which is big enough to share (and which they will split for you in the kitchen if you ask for that). A short walk from our house.
