I've been working in Cambridge for a few years now and my boss always ordered food from here when treating for lunch. Today my boss was off (she normally orders) and she asked me to place an order for the entire office on door dash. I've used door dash many times with 0 issues so I figured today would be no different- wrong. I placed the order at 11am (on door dash) to give myself PLENTY of time for them to arrive. 3 pizzas, 3 salads, a great tip and delivery fee. It was pricey. Once the order was 20 minutes late I called half shell. The man I spoke to explained to me that our door dash delivery driver showed up the half shell and when he was told it was going to take some additional time for the order to be complete the driver said "I can't wait that long" HE LEFT AND THEN DIDN'T CALL ME TO TELL ME. Half shell was absolutely amazing about it - even though it was not their fault at all. I cancelled with door dash and reordered with half shell. They completed our order with rapid speed and delivered it promptly while it was still steaming hot. The salads weren't put with the pizza which I always appreciate because the steam can wilt the lettuce so the salads were super fresh and crunchy. He supplied us with napkins, plates, utensils, I didn't even have to ask for them!
I will literally never order through door dash ever again. That was so unprofessional and rude not to call and give me a heads up. Thank you half shell for saving the office lunch!!! -

It's not only pizza! This is a small place with a great range of options including pizza, sandwiches, subs,fries, breakfast food, dinner food like steak and chicken.
It's not that small! There are plenty of small movable two person seats inside so also good for groups. I like the high ceiling and sky window in the cooking area, making the interior space spacious and comfortable. Also, sitting area is not crowded with seats and tables.
The food is slightly pricy for its simple cooking. -

Have been in a few times after get a tattoo. Always excellent customer service from the guys behind the counter. Next time I will add some pictures of my food as it was so good I ate it up and then realized I forgot to add to Yelp . I had the veggie hummus wrap and my husband had the chicken wings and fries and salad which we split. If you're in Porter Square check them out .

I wish I could rate this place more than once, but I'll settle for updating my review. This place is fantastic. Cheap, tasty, and filling - so glad they're here!

The pizza was ok. I enjoyed the vegetable pizza because it had artichokes and broccoli. The crust or sauce isn't the best I have had. The ingredients were delicious and fresh! I will give the establishment one more try. I won't be getting pizza at my expense though.
