About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Charming

Santino's Little Italy, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood with rich history echoing years gone by in the City of Milwaukee. The building housing the restaurant is over 130 years old and has been beautifully remodeled by talented designers and carpenters. The vibe has an old school Brooklyn New York feeling and is the perfect place to make wonderful memories with friends and family.

The menu features delicious gourmet pizzas / house-made pastas / salads / appetizers / deserts along with delicious Italian wine / cocktails and are professionally served to you by our attentive staff. Our amazing Neapolitan Style Pizza is hand made with the finest and freshest ingredients and cooked in a 6,000-pound Italian woodfired oven. With humility and gratitude our pizza was ranked nationally as the 46th best pizza in North America and we are very proud to serve many happy diners here in Milwaukee.

Reservations are highly recommended as space is limited. We look forward to serving you.

THE OWNER WAS OUTSIDE AND GREETED US. ONCE INSIDE WE TOLD THEM WE HAD A 6:30 PM RESERVATION BUT SHOWED UP AT 4:30 PM AND THEY SEATED US EVEN THOUGH IT IS RESERVATIONS ONLY. THE WAITER TOLD US THE SPECIALS AND WAS AWESOME. WE HAD THE MEATBALL WHICH OUR FRIEND SAID WAS A TAD SMALL FROM PAST VISITS BUT IT WAS DELISH ALONG WITH THE OIL OILVE BREAD. THE WAITER TOLD US THE SPECIAL OF THE NIGHT WAS LASAGNA THAT COMES WITH A HOUSE OR CEASER SALAD FOR $22.00 WAS AWESOME. I HAD THE MARGAIRTA PIZZA WHICH WAS SO DELISH. WE ORDER DESSERT TO GO AND THE WAITER BROUGHT US EACH SOMETHING TO TAKE HOME BUT ONLY CHARGED FOR THE ONE. IT WAS SUCH A GREAT PLACE WE WILL BE GOING BACK.....

Pasta carbonara - shrimp added were rubbery and very over cooked and pizza had a burnt take to the crust not like good brick oven burnt but over cooked burnt. Drinks ok Italian margaritas to sweet lacked alcohol. Old fashioned was good. Server was nice but only checked on us after ordering once when we were almost done eating. Everyone nice but not food wasn’t good especially for it being my moms bday dinner.

Celebrated our wedding anniversary there on Wednesday. Great place, great food and great people. My wife had the pasta dish with a creamy tomato-vodka sauce. I had the house special pizza. Both were really tasty. The place has a “Cheers” atmosphere, but with food.

Food was great. This was my first time there and these are my comments. I loved my pizza. I wanted a 1/2 order of your famous pasta, but none available. Disappointed! A few of us (party of six) wanted an Italian sausage sandwich. None available. Disappointed! The salads were delightful-but no Italian dressing? I tasted a piece of one of the giant meatballs and it was delicious! I will be back. Some of the people I was with will not be back. Their loss!
