Boston | Heard to be one of the best pizzas in the world

🍕 Posto vs. Ciao: For Now, Ciao Still Reigns as Boston’s Pizza Champ After trying Posto, I’m sticking to my verdict: Ciao Pizza is still Boston’s best. Let me break it down. 🍴 Posto: Great Vibes, Solid Food Posto’s in Assembly Row, and the vibe? Fantastic. Busy, lively, with a cool, casual atmosphere—perfect for a weekend meal. We snagged a bar seat during peak hours, which worked. Prices are standard for Italian spots: pizzas around $25, pastas similar. The menu’s impressive—so many pizza options (check p8!). They split them into red sauce and white sauce, with fun, unique white sauce picks: almond cheese pizza, roasted apple pizza… definitely more adventurous than your average spot. Spicy Meat Lovers Pizza ($25): 🌶️ I went greedy and picked the “all-meat” option—salami, ground beef, fresh tomatoes, and spicy peppers. It’s tangy, meaty, and the spicy peppers add a zing that cuts through the richness. Love that Italian pizzas don’t overdo the cheese—no “greedy overload” here. Only bummer: The crust edges were a little tough. Guessing with how busy they are, the pizza sat a minute too long after 出炉 (coming out of the oven) before hitting the table. Carbonara ($24): 🍝 Perfectly done. Creamy, rich white sauce, crispy bacon, onions, eggs—simple ingredients, but executed flawlessly. Pro tip: Share it. A whole plate alone would get heavy fast. 🏆 Ciao vs. Posto: Why Ciao Wins (For Me) Posto’s got perks: more menu options, great wine pairings, a swankier setting, and it’s right by Assembly Row for post-meal shopping. But Ciao? It’s the taste. Ciao’s a tiny, no-frills spot—but that’s its superpower. Pizzas go from oven to mouth in under a minute. The crust? Chewy, fresh, with that “just-baked” spring. Posto’s crust, by comparison, felt a little stiff by the end, like it lost its warmth and texture. Selfishly, I hope Ciao stays small and cozy. No need for it to blow up—its “little and lovely” charm is part of the magic. 📍 Posto 400 Assembly Row, Somerville, MA 02145 #BostonPizzaWars #ItalianEats #PizzaLovers
