Dining room at Santarpio's Pizza, Boston, MAFor going on eighty years, members of the Santarpio family have been firing up pies so simple, thin and garlicky that generations of slice-centric Bostonians---not just in the neighborhood but citywide---have kept it on their radar. Forget gourmet goodies; forget stemmed wine glasses; forget everything but extra-crackly crust dripping with basic toppings like onions and hot peppers and paired with a house red or cheap beer. That you’ll remember for a long, long time. They serve barbecue to boot---grilled Italian sausage and lamb tips pass for whopping appetizers here.
