Midici Pizza Coming to Somerville's Assembly Row

SOMERVILLE, MA – Save some for the rest of us, Assembly. Midici Pizza is eyeing the Row for its first Massachusetts restaurant, according to the "Locations" page on its website. Eater Boston broke the news on Thursday, and spoke to a rep from Midici who said the chain is anticipating a fall 2017 opening date.

Midici will set up shop at 463 Assembly Row. The chain serves a variety of fast-casual Neapolitan-style pizzas and also serves appetizers, salads and a specialty Nutella calzone for dessert.

Midici will be the second pizza joint at Assembly Row, behind Ernesto's. It's the latest in an explosion of storefronts cropping up at the Row this year, which will feature new retailers, restaurants, residences, entertainment options and open space.

North End-based bakery Mike's Pastry opened its third location at Assembly Row on Thursday.
