“I wanted to do a place with good Italian comfort food. The simplicity of it, the freshness of it, the quality of ingredients that you get to work with.” They specialize in that quintessential Italian comfort food – pizza. “I think it’s great that the city of Boston is turning around and starting to become known for pizza like the other big cities in the country,” he said. “It is such a simple food but it all comes down to the quality of ingredients.” It’s all done out of an open kitchen where the star of the show is Molinari’s wood burning oven.

Located in the heart of South Boston, Lincoln is a classic American tavern that offers guests a welcoming combination of home-spun, American fare alongside a wide variety of rustic, wood-fire-grilled specialties.Built with the intention of being a comfortable meeting spot for locals looking to share stories at the end of their long day, Lincoln draws inspiration from it’s surrounding, hard-working, and uniquely American neighborhood.Revitalizing a nearly forgotten West Broadway space that at one time housed the area’s only department store, Lincoln feels nostalgic. It’s open-air, tiled-floor cafe, grande bar, and soaring, original tin ceilings remind us of a time when dining halls and supper clubs were a way of life.

    The Lincoln is truly a hidden gem. We had a wonderful dining experience with creative cocktails and a variety of appetizers. We were able to take advantage of the Boston Dine Out deal and the $1 oyster & shrimp offer. Then we ordered a Burrata pizza, Wagyu steak sliders, and the Ribeye steak. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious! Can’t wait to return for brunch. The staff did a great job. Cool atmosphere too. Highly recommend to everyone.

    the environment was friendly , i have been trying to go here for 2 years there is usually never no parking or over packed i decided to make reservations for my boyfriend birthday unfortunately could not have tried everything i wanted to because the oven was broke but for what we could order the food was good. They was out of a few juices so I couldn't get the drinks we wanted but they offered recommendations, the live band was awesome , one thing is they didn't do nothing special for birthdays they did have the ban sing to my boyfriend and brought beignets but then charged me for them but hey. It was a little dark but for the occasion is was sexy and romantic i will becoming again hopefully the oven is working ,
