"Owner Lydia Reichert — who opened the pizzeria with the team behind Buttonwood, Little Big Diner, and Sycamore — named this Newton newcomer after her grandmother, Jinny. “My grandma was a great lady,” Reichert told Boston.com recently. “She spoke her mind and always had an opinion about stuff, but was incredibly welcoming and always wanted to throw a party. And so I wanted to embody that in our restaurant and keep that spirit going.” The pizzeria opened in early March and specializes in American-style Neapolitan pizza. The pies are cooked in a wood-fired oven at 700 degrees Fahrenheit, and have an outer crust that is both pillowy and charred. There’s a full liquor license (Negroni, anyone?), and the beer list focuses on local brews." - Terrence Doyle
