One of the top 5 best pizza shops in the Boston-Metro area and we’ll fight you about it.
Cash only, no delivery, and if you call on a Friday or Saturday night you’ll wait an hour for a cheese pizza.
Located on Broadway in Somerville’s Winter Hill neighborhood, Leone’s opened their pizza and sub shop in 1954. Still family owned and operated, everything about this place is unassuming, from their website to their signage.
The true mark of a great pizza restaurant is their cheese pizza, and it’s hard to find better than Leone’s. Baked Sicilian-style in square pans, their dough is pillowy, their sauce is flavorful, and their cheese is generous.
It’s off the beaten path and it’s unlikely you’d walk by here on a tourist trip to the Boston area, but it’s absolutely worth going out of your way to get.
