Newbury Pizza & Subs This underground joint serves up slices that are just like its employees - thin and greasy. The slices are really quite tasty, too, with soft dough and a breadcrumb undercarriage. We don't know if their employees have soft breadcrumb undercarriages. We didn't check.

Little Stevie's There is nothing little about Little Stevie's. Open since 1968, it is difficult to find a better slice - or a bigger slice, for that matter - in this city. That's because they pattern their business after the New York pizzerias that are cut from pies that must be about 8 feet in diameter. The only drawback about Little Stevie's is the place is so filthy at times that it looks like it's been closed since 1968.

Crazy Doughs Some pizza places serve sandwiches as well as slices, but Crazy Doughs just makes those sandwiches on pizza crust. They have everything from spicy open-faced Rueben sandwich pizza to Philly cheesesteak. We asked if they would make us a bagel, cream cheese and lox pizza, and they said they would make anything if they had the ingredients. (Warning: they don't have lox.) The Boylston location serves beer.

T Anthony's The slices here are of the Regina's soupy-cheese variety. It's the perfect place to head either before or after a Paradise show. Just slurp on your slice and talk about how much the band rocked. Or talk about something different, we don't care.

Ernesto's At first glance, this little North End eatery looks like it could be a mob front, but the slices are so good that the only mob presence is the line of customers waiting for lunch. The recipe apparently came over from Italy with the owner's father, and when you order a slice, it's the size of two slices. That way, it's better to fold it over and eat it … mob-style.

Presto Pizzeria Restaurant This BC-area joint is the place for the breaded bliss that is Sicilian pizza. Their regular slices are crispy and tangy and perfectly good, but it's that Sicilian that makes it worth riding the Green Line to the C train's end.

New York Pizza This theater district dive could really give Little Stevie's a run for its money as far as the C- atmosphere, but the pizza is so puffy and salty that the environment is a secondary concern. It's kind of like how junkies don't seem to care where they are as long as they have their fix.
