Right up front I will say that this is not a fancy place. It has been around for generations (my 80 yr old Dad went as a kid), and the reason why: Good food & nice portions at value prices. Service is wonderfully friendly and the atmosphere is down to earth (see pics). Santasieros is a bit off the beaten path, and we were here off hours on a Tuesday, so place was nearly empty, ...but the food was hot, tasty, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Last two times I ordered take out I was told the order would take an hour (for two spaghetti parms). Both times the order was not even close to ready when I arrived. One of the servers nicely apologized and offered me a glass of wine while I waited. I honestly go here to get a meal like chefs restaurant without paying the chefs price. Im willing to wait considering what a good value the meals are here. There is a lack of consistency between orders, sometimes the parm is overcooked and sometimes not enough - but not a deal breaker. Supporting a small family business feels great but they could definitely be better getting orders done more timely. Eat in is reservation only which I find odd - have only ordered take out since they changed to this.
