" I made a plan to try Pleasant Cafe after hearing friends rave about it. They spoke highly of the pizza so my expectations were elevated. While I found it quite good, it didn’t make me feel as if it was out of this world. The crust was decent, but I could tell there were definitely better options not too far away. The staff was nice, and the atmosphere very family-friendly, which I appreciated. However, I might not return just for the pizza alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Pleasant Cafe and found the experience quite pleasant as the name suggests! My family and I were after a classic Italian meal, and the restaurant did not disappoint. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the chicken parm and their famous pizza. While the pizza was exactly how I like it - simple and comforting, the chicken could have used a bit more seasoning. The service was quite fast despite the crowd, and our server was attentive. I might visit again, but I'll definitely try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've tried many different pizzas, but Pleasant Cafe takes the cake. I was impressed with how they kept the charm of their establishment while serving great food! I could recognize the family spirit woven through the staff interactions. I tried the veggie pizza on a friend's recommendation, and I’m glad I did! The toppings were plentiful, and the crust was thin and crispy. It’s hard to find such quality nowadays! " (*Curated Review*)

" I moved to Boston not long ago and was searching for a local spot for good pizza. I found Pleasant Cafe online and gave it a shot. The pizza was everything I hoped it would be and then some! Thin crust, flavorful toppings, and ample portion sizes saw me walking out satisfied. I also appreciated the friendly service; it made a great impression. This will definitely be on my radar for repeated visits in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pleasant Cafe has a history that you can feel as soon as you walk in. The place is decked out in a retro style, taking you back in time. The pizza lived up to the recommendation I received. It had a crunchy crust and came out piping hot. The friendly waitstaff added to a great dining experience. While the atmosphere was nice, I felt that some of the tables were a bit cramped. Apart from that, I had a lovely night, and I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited Pleasant Cafe frequently over the years and I will always have a soft spot for this restaurant! Whenever I’m in town, I make sure to indulge in their thin-crust pizza. The service is consistently awesome and the ambiance reminds me of family gatherings since it’s so familiar and inviting. It’s not fancy, but it’s homey, and that’s exactly what I want when grabbing a quick bite. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you are ever in Boston, you owe it to yourself to check out Pleasant Cafe. The pizza reigns supreme here! The crust has the right amount of crispiness and the toppings are so fresh and flavorful! I could eat it every day! The service is friendly, and they are quite responsive to requests. It made my journey to Boston worthwhile. I will always come back when I'm in town! " (*Curated Review*)
