Josephine
About
Josephine is an Italian restaurant in Somerville from chef Michael Scelfo, focused on pizza, Italian favorites and the simple pleasure of dining together. Pizzas range from a classic with whole milk mozzarella, the house’s Linny Ray’s sauce and basil to pies topped with pepperoni cups and hot honey or white clam with plenty of garlic. Pastas include vodka sauce with pork and fennel sausage, guanciale with egg yolk and pecorino, and chopped clams with garlic.
Scelfo is also the chef behind Alden and Harlow, Waypoint and The Longfellow Bar, and Josephine is framed as a celebration of family and food. Weekday daytime service brings sandwiches on house-made seeded semolina rolls with house giardiniera, such as a chicken cutlet with vodka sauce or shaved ribeye with Cooper Sharp American cheese. Online ordering and gift cards are available.
