A new restaurant featuring custom sandwiches and gourmet pizza has opened on Cambridge Street at the foot of Beacon Hill in Boston. The Federal replaces the Venice Cafe, an Italian restaurant that closed earlier this year, and looks to be a popular place for takeout food, with "build your own" sandwiches and pizzas as well as salads.
For the "build your own" sandwiches, The Federal offers a wide variety of breads, meats, cheeses, toppings, and spreads; for the "build your own" pizzas, everything from mushrooms to artichokes to pineapple to pepperoni to steak tips to salami is offered.
Specific sandwiches listed on the menu at The Federal include pulled pork, a Cuban, chicken cordon bleu, and grilled eggplant. Specific pizzas include a margherita, Mediterranean, and buffalo chicken.
The address for this new Beacon Hill restaurant is: The Federal, 204 Cambridge Street, Boston, MA 02114. The phone number is (617) 391-0025.
Thanks to the Boston on the Go blog for letting us (and others) know that this place is now open.
