And Eagle's is the worst of them all, new Cleveland Circle denizen Martin Lierbaman writes:

... Either the B.C. kids have really low standards for good food, or these places just aren't even trying. How I long for the days when I could get off the T on my way home and eat at T. Anthony's, a real pizza place, and a real good one at that.

Ed gives a thumb's up to the takeout at the Square Corner Cafe, the new place on Washington Street (a door down from Robyn's):

Sauce flies at Westie pizza parley

At a meeting last week, the owners of West Roxbury's current pizza joints sliced into a proposal for a Papa John's pizza place near Roche Bros., saying the neighborhood already has enough places to meet its pizza needs, the West Roxbury Transcript reports.

Less clear is whether the owners of the neighborhood's sandwich shops (in general, the same as the pizzamakers) will try to sink a sub shop proposed at the other end of Centre Street: D'Angelo's is looking at moving into the old Friendly's location.

Note to Transcript editors: You might want to give your reporters a couple hours a month to just walk up and down Centre Street, which might keep them from making mistakes like referring twice to DeMo's (it's DeNo's) or writing that D'Angelo's would turn the old Friendly's drive-thru window into an entrance (the building has a walk-up window, not a drive-thru).
