6 dish-specific mentions · 67% positive · 3 source types · menu verified November 2026
A rectangular granny slice with a chewy, crispy crust, often topped with Peking duck or butter chicken. Diners praise a fluffy, crisp edge, though some find it overwhelming or too sweet.
Tony's Pizza Napoletana · North Beach
7 dish-specific mentions · 43% positive · 4 source types · menu verified November 2026
A square grandma pie finished with oregano, Romano, and garlic oil, sold as a whole pie only. Diners call it crispy and a little sweet, though one finds the style too chewy and flatbread-like.
Grumpy's Pub & Pizza · Northeast Waterfront
4 dish-specific mentions · 0% positive · 2 source types · menu verified November 2026
A grandma-style square pie offered whole or by the slice in several toppings. One review finds the pepperoni grandma just fine and bettered by the burger, useful mainly in a pizza-thin neighborhood.
Every score is built from evidence about the specific dish: how often locals recommend it, how strongly, how recently, and whether independent sources agree. A restaurant's overall star rating is never converted into a dish score.
Quality and confidence are reported separately. A dish two people loved can score high, but it is marked limited data until more evidence backs it up. The whole calculation — every constant, and three dishes worked through line by line — is written out on the methodology page.
