What People Are Saying About T. Anthony Pizzeria & Restaurant

Featured Review

The Scene – If Boston University's athletic department had an official caterer, T. Anthony's would be the obvious choice-and not just for its convenience (BU's athletic department is just down Babcock Street). Photos of BU stars from all sporting endeavors grace the walls. A shiny, high-tech jukebox sticks out among the diner-esque booths. Local laborers, from cops to construction workers, are the early-bird regulars, but the late-night crowd belongs to BU students noshing on brain food. – – The Food – Eggs "any way you like 'em" are the breakfast specialty of the…

Editor's Tips

Parking:
Whenever BU's nearby Nickerson Field is hosting an event, lines can be overwhelming, and parking options are slim. The B Green line stops right at the restaurant.
Know Before You Go:
The restaurant doesn't offer much in the way of desserts. Head to Angora Cafe, just a few doors down Comm. Ave., for great frozen yogurt, available with a multitude of toppings.

OBSESSED!

by aab225 at Citysearch

BU students, when you are drunk in the wee hours of the night (or if you're up late studying or just stone cold sober and in the mood for awesome food) you have to go to T Anthony's! The pizza and subs are incredible! They also have amazing hot sauce, so I suggest ordering a side of it with your pizza because it will make it even better.

Best pizza place on Comm Ave

by gethebassics , Citysearch Contributor at Citysearch

Oh, T Anthony's. Where else can college students go to get pizza, subs and salads at 1am? The food is absolutely delicious, and at great prices. Best greek salad in town, best meatball sub, and the pizza is fantastic. There are no trash cans, so you just order, eat and leave. However, if the place gets swamped, you can count on poor customer service. If you're ordering delivery, be prepared to wait at least an hour - this popular pizza place caters to the entire BU campus.

  • Pros: Food, hours, prices
  • Cons: Customer service

Code 10 @ T-anthony's!

by District 14 at Citysearch

Code 10 is the BPD radio code requesting a lunch or dinner break! T-Anthony's steak tips and onion rings are so good that the menu should be standard department issued equipment. Everything I've tried had always been of the highiest standards - fresh, tastful, large portions. Nothing illegal here!

  • Pros: Convenient! Priced right!
  • Cons: Still testing everything on the menu...I'll let ya know.

Perfect for a late night junk food stop

by Tiffany M at Citysearch

When walking back to the BU campus, T. Anthony's is a great place to stop to get out of the cold. Sure, they reheat their pizza, but at the end of the night you just want something tasty and unhealthy to eat.

However, don't make the same mistake I did and order a cheeseburger. It was burnt and dry. It's a pizza place. Get pizza. Duh.

  • Pros: Cheap
  • Cons: Don't order a burger from a pizzeria!
