Forest Hills Pizza

Just moved to JP and went to grab a couple of slices of pizza at this place. I got pizza that tasted like it had been sitting a while and might be better right out of the over. Its the kind of pizza with a thin-​ish crust and lots of cheese. Definitely OK pizza but I have had way better… I’ll keep exploring the area :)

New owners! I have always liked this spot and the previous owner and his family were great people, but the new owner and his staff are equally as awesome. The pizza has gotten better, too. Their chicken broccoli pizza is delicious, especially when it is fresh out of the oven. The buffalo chicken is great as well, just not as good at the chick-​broc. There is even Sicilian pizza now, on top of the cheese and pepperoni staples. I have not had a chance to try their new menu otherwise, I’m mainly stopping in for slices! With the new variety of slices on top of the great quality and great service, this place is well-​deserving of your time and a five star rating. Stop in some time soon and grab a slice!

This the best pizza I ever had. The new owner is very friendly and get you the best what you want. I would really recommend you this place if you are looking for pizza with fresh dough

Standard fare, greasy Greek style pizza. Friendly service, but the za is nothing to write home about.

Ok. Boston Pizza is not New York Pizza. But it’s better than Chicago Pizza. I purchased a slice of Pepperoni Pizza and a bottle of water. $ 4.00. Slice had a nice amount of cheese and pepperoni. Very tasty. Not greasy. Very filling. Saw some people eating some sandwiches. They looked good too. Nice place in JP. When I’m visiting Boston I’ll be back.

This place is really really good for the price! It’s fast-​food pizza, but not greasy and the crust is definitely homemade. The garlic and spinach pizza is where it’s at. They are not afraid to go FULL GARLIC. $ 14 for a large pizza with fresh ingredients and no lineup or pretentiousness. Can’t beat it.

This is one of my to go places during my lunch break. It is owned by a married couple, who are the sweetest people you will encounter when you step in.
I usually come here for a quick lunch — 2 slices of pizza and fries. But on days that me and my boyfriend decide to meet for lunch we usually get actual meals. I have tried about everything on the menu — BLT Sub, Steak and Cheese, Burger… etc. Everything is cooked to preference and cooked very quickly!
My latest quick lunch date I got the Grilled Chicken Salad with Creamy Caesar and Pita Bread. WOW. One of the best salads I have ever had. It was a huge portion — so it worked out in my boyfriends favor when he was still hungry after his large Italian sub. The chicken was grilled to perfection and everything else tasted so fresh! I highly recommend giving it a try. It was about 8 dollars — which isn’t too bad, since most places already have pre-​made salads for about 9 – 10 dollars.
Being such a small, family owned business I do recommend giving this place a try! Why not support this local place?! The food, the quality, and the service is absolutely amazing!

My favorite go to spot in Forest Hills. I usually order a steak and cheese (steak bomb) and it is perfect everytime. The steak is seasoned well and they put just the right ratio of cheese and additional toppings. Wing Dings are yummy. The owner and his wife are very nice. It’s another reason a like to go here, to invest in the community and help a family business. Great place to order from if on the go.

The chicken Alfredo pizza is delicious! Ever since we first ordered it, it’s pretty much the only thing my boyfriend and I get now. The subs are also fantastic, very well made and full of flavor. The owners are quite friendly and everything I’ve ordered has been good quality.

This was my favorite she usual dinner spot, when I lived just up the street next to the west Roxbury court house. The food is great, prices are reasonable and there is always a great conversation to be held. I miss this place.

I am shocked that people gave this place good reviews. Maybe it’s because I just moved from Cambridge and have high expectations (Otto, Upper Crust, Basta Pasta) but this was some of the worst pizza I have ever had. It was clearly frozen, bland doughy dough, crap cheese and just no flavor. I am really hoping I can find a good pizza place in the neighborhood… The staff was nice but when it comes to a pizza place the pizza can’t suck if you want a good review.

I cannot believe that I went 6 months living in this neighborhood before trying this place. The people who work here are so friendly and helpful and the food is pretty good for such low prices. I’ve had the pizza and the chicken parm sub, both of which were delicious, and I enjoyed having a conversation with the woman working. They really make you feel like you are part of the family. I will definitely be returning very soon :)

just updating because my husband and I love this place :)
The owner and his family are, as another reviewer put it. «so darn nice.» And the prices are quite reasonable for the size, flavor, and nice crispy crust of their pizzas. House Special is our favorite. The salads are excellent as well. Fresh. Dressings are not too oily or salty. Thank you again, FH Pizza. We will be back again.

Though the people who work here are especially pleasant, the food is terrible. Pizza sauce is awful, ingredients taste cheap. Dressing for Greek salad was not homemade, the onions did not seem fresh, and the cheese was poor quality. Wish I could enjoy this establishment, big disappointment.

This is a love letter (sorta).
I lived two blocks from FHP for a year, and I say (with some shame) that I frequented this establishment much more so than my budget could stand. Not that it’s expensive. Quite the contrary, it’s incredibly cheap for by-​the-​slice pizza, which was the only thing I ever bought there. But the problem is that I went there all the time.
As far as quality goes, it’s nothing special. Basic cheese and pepperoni slices are decent and assuaged the pangs in my tummy. It’s cheap and comes out hot and tastes pretty damn good with a nice cold root beer to wash it all down. Husband and wife (Greek, I think?) team are friendly, though our secret dreams to make FHP a Cheers-​esque place where everyone would know our names didn’t come to fruition. Still, it’s gonna be one of those nostalgia eateries for me because of what it represents.
Many a work night was spent here commiserating, eating, digesting, and trying not to think about doing more work.
Will miss it mucho.

I stopped in here late one night to grab a bite before heading home. I ordered a slice of roni. The slice had good flavors everything from the cheese to the crust was original. The staff who looks like a happily married couple were absolute friendly with me. Definitley a place to check out if your in the forest hills area. Affordable and delicious is all I can say.

I live about a block or two from Forest Hills Pizza so it’s easy to go to when I’ve caught myself staring in the refrigerator for five minutes («Shut the door! You’re letting all the cold air out!») The people that work there are nice and the thin crust pizza is tasty. I like the sauces they use and the breadth of the menu and choice of toppings on the pizza are great. There are two sizes and you can also get pizza by the slice.
It’s cool that it seems to be a neighborhood hang out for lots of people, too. I wouldn’t necessarily tell someone from Somerville that it’s worth their time coming down to try it out but those of us in JP and especially us by Forest Hills, it’s a great spot. And frankly, while not being as exotic as Dogwood’s pizzas, the pizza at Forest Hills is cheaper and just as good.

Outside of pizza chains, this place has my favorite pizza. I like the thin/​crispy crusts, well seasoned (but not too salty!), and extremely friendly employees. I asked for a side of pickles once (ordering nothing that needed such), and they gave it to me anyway without charging me. The menu is extensive, and the prices are fair for a family-​owned business.
Besides pizza, they make awesome BLTs. They seriously do not hold back on the bacon, and it’s crisp (but not too burnt) that’s just amazing. mm. cherish those moments pre-​heart attack.

I almost feel like the people who run this place are my parents. I can go in there anytime and get something really cheap and really delicious. It really feels homemade. I usually get the supreme wrap with chicken. Different from the chicken wrap, that has mayo, the good one has feta. It isn’t anything special, but it’s good solid satisfying food.
My roommates who don’t know what a stove is usually get spaghetti and meat balls or something like that. It comes with garlic bread and a bunch of cheese on top. FILLING! it’s $ 5 i think and feels just like a home cooked meal.
I wouldn’t go out of my way to get to this place, but if you live in the area, it’s a definite staple.

Excellent everything.
Forest Hills Pizza has not only great prices, but about the fastest and most polite service you’ll find in an establishment this size.
Why get two slices in 1 minute for $ 3.00 when you can get a small pie for $ 6.00 in less than 10 minutes? Take advantage of their prices, and should the worst that happen be sitting and waiting for a few minutes, just relax and enjoy the show that is Hyde Park Avenue through the front windows.
I do remember being disappointed in their subs and sandwiches, until remembering that they cost half as much as they would anywhere else. As said, take advantage of a good thing!
Aside from good food and prices, the family that owns and operates the place is great. Having bounced back from a fire, being closed for over a year, and putting up with every shitbag who wonders in from the train station across the street, they are and will always be tops. They know what service is and appreciate every customer that comes their way.
Most nights I’d rather buy a pizza from Forest Hills Pizza and eat it in an alley than pay twice as much for Dogwood grub, which is barely as good, and comes with a markup for what they call «ambiance.»
