"Marc Hurwitz checks out Pleasant Cafe in Roslindale for his latest in Dig Boston. With “classic Italian-American comfort food dishes that tend to be simple and unpretentious,” the restaurant offers substantial portions. Highlights include what Hurwitz calls a “wonderfully old-fashioned” chicken and eggplant parm combo that heavily features the restaurants house-made red sauce. The roast prime rib of beef is reasonably priced, he writes, and the thin-crust pizza is “some of the best” in Boston. Overall, the 80-year-old restaurant is “truly a destination spot for those who like a little history with their food and drink.”" - Dana Hatic
