#3: 2 Slices of Sicilian w/ Soda: $5.00
Mike is the owner of Allston's Bravo Pizzeria and he proudly boasts his Sicilian cheese pizza as "unbeatable". I agree with Mike as I am a frequent customer for his Sicilian pizza. Mike's Sicilian secret is that the pie "has twice the amount of cheese and dough" than the thin crust pizza. The sauce used on Bravo's Sicilian is unique because it has "a lot more herbs and spices" so that it makes a more zesty pizza. Bravo Pizzeria is my go-to pizza joint not only because of the quality Sicilian, but also because of the way Mike treats his customers-- like friends.

My roommates, friends, and family frequent Bravo Pizzeria and feel welcomed by the jolly and personable owner. Once I was too clumsy after the bar to hold on to my slice and when it dropped to the floor Mike handed me another. Not to mention every now and then Mike will give my roommates and I free pizza or something off the menu to try for free. When family comes to visit we go to Bravo to order a pie and Mike always comes to the table to meet his new customers. Every time we go into Bravo pizza we have friendly conversation and for this reason Bravo Pizzeria is a staple establishment in the pizza-eating community.

  1. I go to Bravo all the time. Love the pizza. Love the two slices and a soda for five dollars. But my friend worked there for like a week and he told me something about Mike that concerned me. He told me that Mike keeps all of the tips that his employees working at the counter get. That's pretty fucked up. So I never tip when I go there now.

  2. Thanks for the post. I'm frequently on Brighton Ave in Allston so I'll be sure to check it out. I probably won't tip though after the first comment

  6. I have heard that this place is the sister shop of Pino's in Cleveland Circle (Brighton), whose pizza is spectacular. Bravo's is, as well. I'm curious about what Mr. Cooper said about Mike stealing his employees' tips, though, because that's pretty low.
