“I wanted to do a place with good Italian comfort food. The simplicity of it, the freshness of it, the quality of ingredients that you get to work with.” They specialize in that quintessential Italian comfort food – pizza. “I think it’s great that the city of Boston is turning around and starting to become known for pizza like the other big cities in the country,” he said. “It is such a simple food but it all comes down to the quality of ingredients.” It’s all done out of an open kitchen where the star of the show is Molinari’s wood burning oven.

    My SO and I sat at the bar; refreshed on great draught beers, attentive service and a very friendly staff. Our appetizer (shrimp) was delicious and dinners were equally delicious. I had the margarita pizza and she had spicy chicken salad. Both were delicious. The vibe in the restaurant is really great; excellent bar setup and easy parking…we’ll be back!

    We got reservations here before going to see a play at Huntington Theatre (just a few doors down). Most of the servers seemed newer, and things got busy quickly, and I think that's when our tiny corner table got lost in the shuffle. Luckily, a more seasoned waitress (perhaps the owner?) noticed us looking around having already eaten our bread (with REALLY good oil & balsamic vinegar, btw!), and she immediately took over for the rest of our services with top-notch skills! We informed her of our increasing time constraints and she was on everything without an issue! We made it to the show on time with some very yummy food in our bellies!
