Antonio's Pizzeria | Our Story

Pizza, plantains, and Dorchester pride

Antonio's Pizzeria is a family-run neighborhood spot on Dorchester Ave, born from a love for Fields Corner and its food traditions. Founded by Brian Chavez and his father Hannibal, Antonio's carries on the spirit of the former Hi-Fi Pizza with thin, crispy New York-style pies, Spanish favorites, subs, wings, and comforting classics—all under one roof.

Owner Brian Chavez reimagined the former Hi-Fi Pizza with a fresh, personal vision—keeping the same beloved corner on Dot Ave while bringing new energy, family tradition, and flavors to Fields Corner.

Chavez isn't a silent investor — he's here, knows regulars by name, and takes every order personally. That kind of hands-on ownership is rare, and you can taste it.

Yellow rice, sweet plantains, stew chicken, pork chops — the menu reflects the Caribbean and Latino communities that define this neighborhood. Not fusion; home cooking.

When a national chain tried to move into Fields Corner in 2024, Chavez went on record to push back — loud and clear. His words to Dot News: "I'm a local business." Full stop.
