It's time to go somewhere in Eastie that's not Logan International Airport. Santarpio's, near the expressway and six blocks from the T, is a Boston pizza institution that too few people know about. Its thin-crust pizza has a cult following and is extremely addictive; the white garlic is particular favorite of patrons. The only appetizers available are lamb kabobs and sausage -- these are also to-die-for delicious with their side of peppers and rustic Italian bread.
The atmosphere could be considered odious or charming; take your pick as you experience the sassy wait staff and dingy dcor. But these two factors are not why people have been coming here for four generations. They come for the pizza. If you're looking for fancy appetizers, micro-brews or even a salad, this is not the place for you. Santarpio's is old-school: Get your pizza, get your beer and don't start any nonsense. The prices are old-school, too, with a large 12-inch pie (they only come in one size) costing around $10.

forget about mad cow santarpios has happy lamb and pizza is great
Good
Vc5Gm - 02/19/2009not the fanciest place. Anyone who does not like this place is use to papa gino's or olive garden. If you like chain restearants, do'nt eat here. If you want good pizza & great cold bud from a bottle this is the place for you. Old school italian style roud pizza.
Yuck!
DRKnowName - 02/09/2009Pizza is not very good, it is like eating cardbored. Also this resturant is very dirty, and unkept. I would not recommend it to my dog.

Good old Italian Pizza like they use to make it
Twig1027 - 08/07/2008About the best since I left Brooklyn, NY. Those who complain have their heads up their A___S...probably use to Greek pizza or frozen pizzas. Sausage & lamb really make it. The palce is far from fancy and the whole place is exacltwhat I want....fast service (who wants to BS, fast servcie and great food and adios, I'm out of here. GREAT!!!
What a dump with disgusting pizza
Blondiedayzez - 08/06/2008You would get a MUCH MUCH MUCH better pizza from a box on the shelf at the grocery store. The staff is nasty. The place is filthy and talk about skimpy. Good grief... there is barely anything on the pizza. I suppose they talk a good game. Great pizza at this dump is more of an urban legend. My own foot would taste better.
Best Pizza I've Ever Eaten
SoxPats1233 - 07/25/2008This is the best pizza I've eaten in my whole life! Their pizza is simply perfect. It's no wonder Steven Tyler, Larry Bird, and the Sopranos ate there.
Always the very best
Acquabalm2 - 07/25/2008Santarpio's is always the same. WONDERFUL. The pizza and lamb and sausage are always consistently cooked to perfection. The staff is friendly and the service prompt . A Boston tradition. I love the place.
HEAVEN ON EARTH
Morgan540 - 07/25/2008ABSOLUTELY THE BEST PIZZA. Regina in the north end is a close second, but Santarpios takes the cake. The line is worth the wait. TRUST!!!!!!!
