Boston Restaurant Associates, Inc., incorporated in 1989, operated a chain of 16 restaurants, including 12 fast-service, high-volume pizzerias under the Pizzeria Regina name and four full-service family-style Italian/American restaurants under the Polcari's North End name during the fiscal year ended April 28, 2002 . Of the 12 Pizzeria Regina restaurants, 11 are food court kiosks (self-service, take-out style emphasizing pizza slices with common area seating), while the original North End Pizzeria Regina is a wait service restaurant (full-service style emphasizing whole pizzas with in-restaurant seating). A majority of the restaurants are located in the Boston , Massachusetts , metropolitan area.

The Pizzeria Regina restaurants feature the Company's signature product, its Neapolitan-style, thin crust pizza, prepared in gas-fired brick ovens. The original Pizzeria Regina , located in Boston 's historic North End, has served Boston Restaurant's brick oven pizza since 1926.

The Polcari's North End restaurants are full-service Italian/American, family-style restaurants that capture the community spirit of the 1940s and 1950s in Boston 's Italian North End neighborhood. These restaurants highlight exposed gas-fired brick ovens in open view of diners, memorabilia and photographs depicting 1940s and 1950s scenes in Boston 's North End, and large tables to encourage family-style dining.

The Company has also developed a bistro-restaurant concept, which was inspired by the success of the Saugus-based Polcari's North End restaurant. Unlike the Saugus restaurant, the bistro restaurants are smaller in size, creating a more intimate family dining experience. In addition, the menu is a modified version of the Saugus-based offerings, providing for a lighter dining experience. The bistro restaurants operate under the Polcari's North End trademark. The Company operates four Polcari's North End Restaurants in Saugus , Massachusetts , Hyannis , Massachusetts , Woburn , Massachusetts , and Salem , New Hampshire .
