There's a dearth of proper sit-down restaurants open for lunch in downtown Boston nowadays after the pandemic left operators concentrating on the dinner crowd.
But if you're hungry and in the Financial District, stop by Lily's Bar Pizza Patio at 33 Batterymarch for a solid pie in a modern upscale dining room.
What we ate: The Sausage and cherry pepper pizza — $19.50.
It's a 12-inch tavern-style with the usual mozzarella, plus pecorino and some very flaky parmesan garnish.
