Being a pizza lover, I have a small, but growing list of favorite pizza restaurants around the world. Growing up the Bay Area, San Francisco plays a part in that list of favorite places. Delfina is one spot that will always have my interest. In its original location in the Mission, it's known for wait times of more than an hour. Lining up for food in this street in the Mission is worth it. Food here at Delfina, pastries at Tartine, and ice cream at Bi-Rite.
Now that my home base is away from the Peninsula, Delfina has additional locations around the Bay Area including one in Palo Alto. Growing up in the area meant frequent meals in Palo Alto. Sunday lunches at Empire Tap Grill was the perfect spot for nice sunny days. That perfect place for outdoor eating is now housed by Delfina. Great food, drinks, and family friendly. This is ideal for families wanting a nice meal together in a relaxed, casual environment. While it's good for families, it's also a great place for food and pizza lovers.
Just like its San Francisco location, this Palo Alto location has a selection of antipastis, seasonal vegetables, and pizzas. They also have some of the tastiest meatballs in the area. Now you don't have to drive all the way up to the city for a quality slice of great pizza.

There are so many great restaurants where we can find good and healthy food. I have heard that Boston people are very foodie and always serve new tasty dishes with new flavors. That’s why Boston restaurants are very famous. What you think about this?
Hi Cris Mic! There are countless of places with healthy options these days - it's great!
Boston has an excellent reputation as a food destination, and it's definitely well deserved. In the US, Boston is as famous for food as is New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, etc. I think it's because of the "celebrity" chef presence and the media's attention to these cities. After professionals, critics, and eaters hear about it, the cities become bigger and bigger and become a showcase for excellent quality of food.
Food television and food writing has played a huge factor in today's popular for chosen food destinations.
