    It's this simple:

    This gem is the best-semi-kept secret in Boston.

    Great:
    Food
    Ambience
    Management
    Staff.

    Do it, Do it now!

    Great food, better atmosphere and decent prices.

    Dennis Lehane, local author,  says it's his favorite restaurant.

    Say hello to the Birdman on Sundays just after 1:00pm.

    The Shepard's Pie is a winner.  Great place to unwind and talk to interesting folks.

    The atmosphere is kinda old school, which I like in a neighborhood establishment.  See Michael"The Birdman" Bird in the restaurants mural amongst the historical politicians.

    Also, a great place to have a beer and watch the news the Patriots and the Red Sox.  Great commentary is always abound from the regulars.

Ok,it is fast food pizza, but it is convenient and inexpensive.  Online ordering helps, but the location can be congested.

I ordered the 12 extra large and was satisfied based on the above criteria.

I have to go here for outpatient surgery on Monday.  So, I was in there already and was very impressed with the bedside manner of urgent care nurses and staff, I felt liek the MD's on site were just putting me through the grind without "detailed" explanations of potential options.

Some of the staff were so very nice that it kinda made up for some of the your-just a-#-I'm-too-busy to give you too many details or options.

Oh well, we'll see how my next update turns out.

C'mon people, it can boast being THE FIRST public theatre in the America.  That, and it is all done grass-roots, with the help of volunteers coming out of the woodwork.  Additionally,  great shows, really talented thesbians, and it beats many of the higher cost shows; not all, but many.

This place is a must if you appreciate the arts and support local artisans!

DO IT!!!!

This place is classic Old School.

I used to drop in for a drink on a friday evening, when the clientele was a local, everyone-knows-your-name majority and the jukebox was playin the good ole music from yesteryear.

Surprisingly, the food was god too.

No nonsense, no bs and great conversation makes for combination that helps in the unwinding after a week of nonsense, bs and useless conversation that periodically creeps into the collective consciousness.

I want to give 3.5 stars, which I is not available,  so I have to go with 3 as I leaned back this way.  

1) The service here is either hit or miss and I likes me some consistency

2) The selection is good, but not as great as Northface.  And i always thought of EMS as a less expensive alternative.

3) Overall, I feel as if they do not go the extra mile that Northface does, therefore, I opt for NF for convenience and ease of use.
