I stopped in to the Charles street restaurant after reading previous reviews. The previous posters are very correct, this place is small. You have to order at the counter in the back right corner of the room (there is no sign that says this and the people looked at me like I was clueless for not knowing this). I ordered... more

Try Brendan's Buffalo Wing Pizza, you can't stop eating it. I went to the south end location on Tremont street. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, fun crowd. Cool contemporary interior with Flat screen TV's showing sports and music. Overall great value and taste. more

While walking down Newbury street in an effort to find Shino Express, we gave up and went here for lunch. We had the lunch special consisting of their specialty pizza of the day (fresh mozzarella and basil with garlic) and a salad. The slices are pretty big, almost New York style, so paired with the salad we were pretty full!... more

Great pizza by the slice. The original location on Charles is small. Plan on take-out here. Slice of the day is always recommended. They also offer wheat crust. Despite a long line, it moves pretty quickly. more
