“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.

We went for an early Sunday dinner to celebrate my wife's birthday. The restaurant was relatively quiet, but the waitstaff was very attentive and friendly. Our table was very cool for a part of five - an oval of wood that combined the best of a round and a rectangular table. The flavor of the appetizers and meals was wonderful - complex and nuanced and really flavorful - as was the signature cocktail we tried. Our three teenage boys thought that the portion sizes should have been a bit larger on the appetizers and main courses, but my wife and I were satisfied. Overall, we were very pleased and had an enjoyable meal. We would definitely recommend and will be sure to go back again this Summer.
