Seafood Pizza by Saltie Girl
Welcome to Seafood Pizza by Saltie Girl, an Italian inspired seafood pizzeria. After this past summer cooking a lot of delicious pizza at home with local seafood from Nantucket, it seemed natural for owner Kathy Sidell and Executive Chef Kyle McClelland to combine their two favorite things -- pizza and seafood. We wanted to elevate the pizza experience by offering super high quality ingredients on top of a delicious dough, combining an everyday staple like pizza with heavenly delicacies like lobster, clams, caviar, smoked salmon and tinned fish. We’ve combined these morsels from the sea with the finest combination of cheeses -- hand pulled mozzarella, burrata, taleggio and reggiano; these aren't your nona's pies.
Of course, a great pizza experience is second to none without an incredible bar set up. We wanted to push beyond a pizza and a cold beer - although there are days we love that combination, too but we decided to expand the offerings with something a little more sophisticated and fitting. So we curated an all-italian cool, affordable wine list, picked an extensive selection of amaros, and carefully crafted some signature negronis to shake it up a bit. You will have no trouble finding a perfect pairing for these pizzas. We're so excited to share this neighborhood, Italian style seafood pizza with the world.
Come in. Take out. Hang out.
Find us at 281 Dartmouth Street in the original Saltie Girl space.
Wednesday - Sunday, 5-9PM (or until sold out)
No Reservations. Seating is first come, first served.

Reviews
The sea urchin crudo was to die for. Buttery uni, runny quail egg and
bursting caviar in your mouth become an explosion of flavors that's
remarkable. Torched salmon belly was also great. You can see them make
it from scratch if you sit at the bar.

Saltie Girl may be scoffed at because of its small capacity and long
wait times... but it is SOOOOOOOO worth it!!!! The food is a thing of
dreams for seafood lovers. It's a blend of comfort (fried) coastal
options, raw and crudos, classic New England and coastal dishes, and
whimsical creations by the chef that may sound odd but work in a
magical way.
- Greg W
Snow Crab Toast with avocado, pistachios, and stracciatella - wow.
This...destroyed every other 'toast' I've had or even heard of. Good
lord, this was faaaaantastic. They do not skimp on any of the
ingredients here, plenty of fresh, delicious crab, loads of
avocado...just wow. Did I say wow too many times already? Because
that's all I got. That damn good.
- Steve L
This is the best restaurant I ate while in Boston! Salmon belly app
was so unique and tasty! Must try. I also ordered the char and it was
the best seafood dish I've had in a while. Everything is very fresh,
seasoned and the dishes design with a flare you won't find elsewhere.
- Cris A
This place completely stole my heart. It was the first meal my
boyfriend and I had during our first trip to Boston a year ago, and
everything from the service to the food was so great.
- Christine F
Great clam chowder. Class of its own essentially. It's so smooth and
rich. The bacon they use is essentially chunks of pork belly. The
clams are fresh with the shell in it. And it's just delicious.
- Jessica C
I think I had the best meal of my life here on Wednesday night.
