What people say, in short
Many people recommend Bardo's bar pizza, and some name the Castle Island Brewing spot in South Boston. One says it is an authentic take on the style, with the ground chorizo as their only nitpick. One suggests the pickle pie, one picks the pepperoni and ricotta pie, and one says its cheddar stands out. One says it is probably the best in the city, though not the state, and one points out it is one of the few transit-friendly bar-pie options.
