"Armando’s slings classic thin-crust pies in a room with orange plastic booths and a Pepsi cooler. One wall is dedicated to the Red Sox, and the other to the local Little League team they sponsor. But the pizza from this tiny slice joint is way better than the stuff at most chains you’d go to after a kid’s game. Call in your order, and bring cash for some of the best crispy, greasy, and foldable pizza you can find in Boston. If Sicilian is more your vibe, they have good, cheesy square slices, too." - tanya edwards, catherine smart

"For reliable, cheap New York–style pizza I’ve been ordering from Armando’s, and a simple pepperoni still hits the spot even if eating it at home doesn’t quite feel the same as devouring it in the shop’s old-timey wooden booths." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"Armando’s Pizza hits the same spot as Newtowne Grille (see above); we probably hit Newtowne a little more often due to proximity, but sometimes we’ll change it up and head to Armando’s. (If you’re a fan of Formaggio Kitchen, you can visit that in the same trip.) Armando’s has that classic sub shop vibe, complete with basic wooden booths and photos of kids’ sports teams. —RLB" - Terrence Doyle
"One of the best old-school, New York-style slice shops in town, Armando’s serves everything you’d expect from a counter-service pizzeria with wooden booths and youth soccer photos on the walls." - Dana Hatic
