"Price: $ Picco’s name is actually an acronym — Pizza and Ice Cream Company — and the popular South End restaurant does both things exceedingly well. Picco understands the importance and integrity of the dough. The pizza is a dream come true for bread lovers thanks to its prominent, puffy crust, which gets just the right amount of char. Insider tip: Cap off your meal with a scoop of ice cream for the full Picco experience." - Erika Adams
"Picco serves one simple but tasty menu for adults and kids, consisting of assorted pizzas, spaghetti, macaroni and cheese, calzones, and appetizers. What better way to satisfy kids than plates full of carbs? End with Picco’s acclaimed ice cream, of course." - Erika Adams
"If you like your pies well done, head to Picco in the South End. The crust here is so charred you might think it came out of a Kingsford bag, but the end result is a really crispy end product that you’d gladly eat like a cracker. Order the eggplant, mushroom, swiss chard, and provolone pie topped with a miso gochujang aioli. This is the spot you bring your friends with kids, because both the parents and tiny humans will love the homemade ice cream and outdoor seating during the warmer months." - tanya edwards, catherine smart
"The well-charred pizzas from Picco have amazingly crispy crusts. Order some pies for delivery (we like the sausage, fennel, and ricotta one), and have an in-house “crunchy pizza sounds” concert." - joel ang
"I was told Picco Pizza will operate as an Italian pizza pop-up on Sundays, offering Caesar and caprese salads and pies topped with vodka sauce or Ezzo pepperoni; Houser uses a house-made poolish dough that he leopards with char while retaining a sturdy base, and he positions the pizzeria (self-dubbed “Peak Pizza”) as a deliberately working-class, affordable counterpoint to rising pizza prices." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
