For over 14 years – almost 10 of which, I’ve attended, Santisi Brothers has BY FAR been the leader in so many categories, I couldn’t possibly state each. So I will:\r
\r
BEST OVERALL NY-ITALIAN FOOD…eh just make that best food, period (And some people think this is just a bar…bah!): BEST PIZZA – both thin and thick Sicilian style. BEST WINGS to go with them. BEST LASAGNA – that’s my personal favorite on the menu. Heck, I’ve been coming for nearly 10 years and have tried practically everything on the menu – EVERYTHING is PERFECT. Let me tell you, and this should give you a hint about their standard for quality: in this past decade, nothing has changed in taste. It has been prepared for us piping hot and wonderful back when the Dbacks won the World Series as it is now. I truly believe if you have that good of a product, DO NOT change it.\r
\r
BEST SERVERS: These gals are GREAT. I could be gone 2½ months and they will still remember me and my order…down to how I like my wings. But, beyond their “waitressing” they are extremely friendly, funny and have just the right bit of attitude to make sure you enjoy your visit. Did I mention, they’re absolutely BEAUTIFUL? You don’t have to go to Hooter’s which is a fake look at fake women…come to Santisi’s for the real deal. Besides, Hooter’s is great if you’re 14. When you’re ready to grow up, come to Santisi’s.\r
\r
BEST SPORTS PLACE: Oh, yeah, I forgot, they have over 100 TVs, even ones on their generous patio outside. And these were NOT found at a pawn shop. Hell no. It would take me three to six months to afford one. HD, wide screens, and those awesome servers I mentioned will (WITHIN reason) change them for you when you want to watch a different sports program or play the NTN games. This should give you an idea why you should watch sports at Santisi Brothers: there’s a line at what, 8AM, Sunday to get in just to watch football. And when I (stupidly) wander in around noon looking to find a seat, I’m in no luck. The fans here are in droves and know where to be with likeminded sports enthusiasts.\r
\r
Did I leave anything else out? Well, here’s a rundown of the whole picture:\r
\r
Ambiance: 5/5\r
Service: 5/5 - VERY friendly and funny.\r
Food Taste: 5/5 - Best in (NY) Italian I've had. Best is their Lasagna.\r
Food Quality: 5/5\r
Cleanliness: 5/5 - Very kept up, always clean, and if a spill does occur, the staff immediately takes care of it.\r
Friendly Staff: 5/5 - I've developed friends with some of the girls, and guys, outside of Santisi's\r
Fast Busing: 5/5 - Extremely - they're always there when you need them.\r
Smoking Area: Outside, very large patio, and even some of the patio is segregated for non-smokers, if you prefer to bake in the AZ heat. (It's covered, though, with both heaters and mist’ers.)\r
Would I Return?: 5/5 Absolutely, I've been going for over 9 years, after all.\r
Would I Recommend?: Yes\r
And to who?: Anyone from age 5-97\r
Additional Information: You've gotta see it for yourself. Especially if you like sports. I don’t particularly, except for channel FUEL and D-Backs. I go for all the other reasons. The Girls, The Poker and the NTN.
