Also, while still busy Giaccomo's has a south end location as well. Probably less likely to have the insane line that the North End one has. If I were jonesing for Giacomo's and it was a weekend I wouldn't even think about the North End location
You're crazy if you think Regina has the best pizza. It's a tourist trap, just like Mike's Pastry for the most part (although Mikes have a few really good items, it does not have the best cannolis in the N.End, Modern Pastry does). Regina sells itself on the whole established in the early 20th century act. I don't know any locals that regularly go to Regina. It's all Umberto and Ernesto's. What type of pizza are you getting? Ernesto's shines with its unique speciality pies. I dare you to try the chicken ranch or chicken pepperoni riccota there and still tell me Regina is better.
