on Citysearch Nov 28, 2008This pizza has good crust and a good sauce. The day I tried it some of our pizzas were burnt, but I've been assured by my friend that was not normal. (more)

on Citysearch Nov 08, 2008I 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... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 31, 2008<b>The Scene</b><br>Locals, some of them of Italian lineage, flock to this local institution to soak up the atmosphere. Some posters and photographs hanging on the windowless wooden walls date back to the... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 18, 2008If you want maybe the worst service, add on a sprinkle of rude bartenders, long lines and below average pizza, please come to Santarpios. Seriously if you are a local, come on in, if you are not, beware. This place might... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 15, 2007If you like average pizza, rude and non attentive service, and a ridiculous long wait to get in the place. I would recommend this so called pizzeria. (more)

on Citysearch Dec 07, 2007Santarpios has - quite possibly - the best pizza in the U.S. Sounds extreme, but if you have not had it, you are missing out. The pizza is amazing. The sauce is unique and like no other you've tasted. The sauce is most... (more)
