Pizza

Forget about over-complicated pizza with too many fancy toppings to choose from. The only thing that belongs on top of a pizza aside from cheese and pepperoni is a little grease to help it go down easy. Santarpio's Pizza serves a no-nonsense pie that isn't too greasy and isn't too fancy. We recommend ordering a pizza with extra garlic and sticking around awhile to enjoy the Sinatra, not to mention the local character (and characters).

MORE INFORMATION
Blue Goose food truck, MIT campus (near Building 54).

Harry O's, 1405 Washington St. 617-247-1450. [Get directions].

Santarpio's Pizza, 111 Chelsea St., East Boston. 617-567-9871. [Get directions].

On the MIT campus (near the corner of Vassar and Main streets) is a food truck known for its doughy, hot pizza. The Blue Goose serves huge slices of slightly undercooked pizza that draws a huge lunchtime crowd. Those who like their pizza Cajun style (overcooked) are out of luck, but for the rest of us it's paradise. Nearby are some benches or a patch of grass to enjoy your treasure.

There's nothing fancy about Harry O's pizzeria on Washington Street, across from the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in the South End. Canned mushrooms as a pizza topping sort of sum it all up. But they do deliver, and not just in their own neighborhood - they'll find you in Roxbury, downtown, or the Back Bay. The calzones and salads are more of the same no-nonsense fare.
