Pizzeria Regina | Medford
This week: an epic edition of the pizza blog. For Elizabeth's birthday we went to Boston's famous Pizzeria Regina (or at least the Medford location where there is parking). We were joined by Elizabeth's Mother Trisha, Sister Dani, Aunt Dot and her wife Shirl, Sister Dani and Steve, and longtime family friends Donna and Carol.

Miro's Comments: Wow. It lives up to the history and it's reputation. I think it needs a shake or two of
parmesan to reach perfection, but who cares.
| ||||||||||
Elizabeth's Comments: Better than the sum of the individual parts, but as
pricey as Upper Crust?
| ||||||||||
Trish's Comments: Like the pizza, basically love the pizza in spite of the
fact that it is a tad greasy. Bu it makes for luscious lips and I didn't even
need lipstick. I'm obviously not fussy.
| ||||||||||
Dot's Comments: I have always loved Regina's and nothing has changed!!!
| ||||||||||
Shirl's Comments:
If-a-Tony-the-Ice-A-Man were here he would a-smack a-me in-a-the-head and say
"What's a matta fo
you?" Mama Mia!
| ||||||||||
Dani's Comments:
I want to motorboat this pizza. Could use a little more sauce, but I love
Regina and I'd come here again.
| ||||||||||
Steven's Comments: Great Pizza. Needs more sauce

Donna's Comments:

Carol's Comments: Very tasty and cooked just right
