Things are heating up at Osteria Posto in Waltham, thanks to their new Italian wood-fire oven. This thing burns at over 850 degrees, which means your Neapolitan-style pizza will be ready in under two minutes, leaving you plenty of time to relax over lunch and make it back to the office. Whether you want to keep things simple with a Margherita pizza or spice things up with some Soppressata, you’ll find something that strikes your fancy; there are eleven new red and white pies to choose from, ranging from old and classic to funky and fresh (try the Apple with gorgonzola and bacon!). Chef Joe Carli‘s new lunch menu is available Monday through Friday from 11:30am-2:00pm. Walk-ins are always welcome, but if you need a lunchtime reservation, call 781.622.1400.
