Wow - who cares if it's in the guidebooks, it's not like too many people ever venture over to East Boston for pizza. But those who aren't are missing out!

I went to this pizza place for the first time last week. It was fantastic!!! Just getting a plain cheese with a little parm sprinkled on is great. Also a beef kabob will level out all the carbs and make it a well balance meal. Get there early I hear the place gets packed at prime times.

worst pizza in Boston – Awful. The worst restorant experience I can remeber. The all-male abusive waiters will shove you around the place like cattle to fit new clients, all of whom, like me, must have read the fake reviews that SANTARPIO CORP must have posted on the Web; yes, SANTARPIOPIZZA dot com is a chain, not the cozy neighborhood piza place they try to portray on the adds. When you get there, you will eat burnt pizza and pay through your nose or else. If you don't tip the abusive waiters above the 15% rate they will c... read more

A Classic Old-Boston Pizza Joint – When a waiter mutters, "Whaddya want" and writes the order on a greasy piece of paper or a napkin(!), you can pretty much be assured that you won't be having a fine dining night. And perhaps that's what makes Santarpio's so special. It is so completely unpretentious in an old-Boston sort of way that it is at once memorable and, yes, even lovable, kind of like a crusty uncle who's always telling you to stop doing whatever it is you're doing. Don't come to Santarpio's expecting a varied menu.... read more

Overrated – The atmosphere was good, but the pizza sucks. Over-rated. The pizza came out so soggy that it just flopped over and fell apart. We also waited 1 hour just to get in, and 1 hour just to get our pizza. I'd rather have Papa Johns.

Great Food – This is a great place to get no frills pizza. The waiters and bartenders for fun to talk to and have been there for years!

HORRIBLE SERVICE – Okay..Honestly...the pizza was pretty good BUT the waiter was horrible. He was rude, unattentive, gave me the wrong beer, threw our silverware on the table, didn't say hello or thank you(or anything else but "OK"), interrupted while we were placing our order to talk on his cell phone(yes, he really did) and, to top it off, my back was to the waiter station where they kept the bus bucket so I was lucky enough to get splashed in the back of the head with some liquid(God knows maybe it was someone's discarded... read more

Terribly rude service; average pizza – I am from Italy, and I realize that American Pizza is different then traditional pizza - but I don't get the hype about this place. It's a completely average American style pizza. The remarkable thing about this place is the terrible service - i'm not asking for much, but a bit of politeness should be a given.... I asked the waitress what kind of cheese they use (the menu states simply "Italian cheese") - she did not know, and was VERY upset when my wife & I asked (politely) if she woul... read more
