Mangia Neapolitan Pizza Plans to Open Locations in South Boston, Quincy

A small local chain of pizzerias continues to expand, with one location opening within the Boston city limits and another opening a few miles south of the city.

According to The Patriot Ledger, Mangia Neapolitan Pizza is planning to open outlets in South Boston and Quincy, joining existing locations in the South End, Brookline, Canton, and a newly-opened one in Cohasset. (The article also mentions that Hopkinton, Norton, and Sharon will soon see locations of Mangia as well.) The exact location of the upcoming Mangia in South Boston is not yet known, but the Ledger states that the Quincy location will be in the food court of the Quincy Center MBTA station.

[March 20, 2013 update: Some new information on Mangia--based on info from one of our readers (and confirmed by masslive.com), the South Boston address of the upcoming eatery is 283 Old Colony Avenue. Also, it looks like the Quincy location may have fallen through, as the Mangia website shows nothing on it.]

Mangia Neapolitan Pizza first opened for business in 2003, featuring pizzas made using whole-wheat dough along with toppings such as pesto, shrimp, blue cheese, and vinegar peppers. Mangia also serves calzones as well.
