"For better or worse, the Polcari family’s restaurant group has expanded significantly since the 1926 debut of Pizzeria Regina in the North End; these days, most locations are quick-service kiosks. But standing in line at the original full-service Thacher Street location is still an essential Boston pizza experience that has an irreplicable flavor from the hundred-year-old oven. Try the Giambotta pizza — topped with every traditional topping the restaurant offers — for a taste of Regina’s classic brick-oven pizza." - Nathan Tavares, Tommy Ranucci, Eater Staff
