The best pizza place I know of (that I ate at least) is Grimaldi's in Brooklyn.

I HATE Sweet Tomatos. I got a pie from the one in Newton Center when it first opened and if I recall correctly wasn't too impressed. I recently got another pie this time from their new location in Needham. Again . . . not impressed. Despite ordering a pizza with several toppings the pie had no flavor at all. It was VERY bland and it was pretty expensive as far as pizza goes. Plus, my wife and I had pretty bad upset stomachs after eating the pizza. Everyone RAVES about Sweet Tomatoes, but I've tried their pizza twice and found it less than satisfying.

I've never eaten at Regina's but I do LOVE Santarpio's in East Boston. That is some GREAT pizza.

I have had an upset stomach there too. That just goes to say that Boston has crappy Pizza in general if the place that everyone loves still sucks...

Santarpios is pretty good, I do not like going to that neighborhood too much. The lamb kebabs are famous there too.

You must try Pizzaria Regina in the North End! Just get a plain pizza or the rake you on the price big time. Cash only too. Regina is got to be the best overall pizza in the area. I think they use a coal fiired oven.
