Pizzeria Regina

Boston


The queen of North End pizzerias is the legendary Pizzeria Regina, famous for brusque but endearing waitstaff and crispy, thin-crust pizza. Thanks to the slightly spicy sauce (flavored with aged Romano cheese), Regina repeatedly wins accolades for its pies, including recognition by a certain unmentionable travel website as the best pizza in the country. Worth the wait.
