If you're looking for exceptional Italian catering, the best deli sandwiches around, and a true…read morefamily-owned business, Santoro's Bakery is the place. Santoro's has deep roots in Roslindale Square, originally founded by Vincenzo and Agostina Santoro and beloved for decades for their Sicilian pizza, fresh-baked scali bread, and classic Italian pastries. Today, their daughter Tina Santoro Asmar carries that legacy forward with pride--and has taken it to another level. The care, tradition, and family ownership are felt the moment you walk in. The sandwiches are simply unmatched. Hands down, the best Italian deli sandwiches I've ever had--better than anything I've eaten in Philadelphia, New York City, or Boston (all places I've lived). Everything starts with bread baked fresh daily and top-quality ingredients. Our favorites are: The Agostina Sr. - Boar's Head provolone, sweet & spicy capicola, Genoa salami, mortadella, prosciutto, sun-dried tomato spread, roasted red peppers, onion, tomato, fresh basil, and olive oil The Grayson - Oven Gold turkey, cranberry sauce, homemade stuffing, romaine, and mayo You can taste the pride and attention to detail in every bite. Catering is where Santoro's truly shines and we always call the day beforehand. We regularly order trays for our own family and for friends returning home from the hospital, and the feedback is always the same--everyone raves. Standout catering dishes include: Chicken Parmigiana, Stuffed shells & stuffed manicotti, Lasagna, Ziti with meatballs, Chicken, broccoli & ziti, Eggplant Parmigiana (a favorite with our vegetarian friends), and Caesar salad We always order extra meatballs and extra Nona Carmela's marinara--and it never goes to waste. The garlic bread is also a must: fresh scali bread loaded with garlic, butter, Parmesan, mozzarella, and baked until perfectly bubbly. The desserts are excellent (especially the cannoli), and they thoughtfully package them separately from hot food--small touches that show how much they care. Add in super friendly staff, fair prices, and consistently fresh ingredients, and Santoro's becomes the kind of place you rely on again and again--for everyday meals, family gatherings, and moments when food really matters. A true family-owned Italian gem with incredible sandwiches and catering you can trust. Highly recommended.

I remember this place when it used to be Sofia's so I was excited to return to have brunch with a…read morefriend mid-December. The inside of the restaurant looked the same and I loved the holiday decorations that were up. Upon arrival, we were seated immediately, as there was barely anyone inside since we arrived close to the time they opened. With that said, it seemed like there was only one waiter which caused the service to be very slow. We ordered mocktails and I also got a couple of seasonal sangrias, which along with the bread, were the best items of the experience. We also ordered fried calamari and cauliflower, home fries (not pictured), and complimentary bread. The food came out lukewarm to cool. The calamari was ok, the cauliflower needed a sauce or something because it was bland. I really hoped for better from this place. :(

It did not disappoint…read more I still have faint memories of the former Fontaine's, whxj definitely had seen its time come and go. Mission is very open and airy with comfortable seating. The menu is relatively large and varied for a new place, with a wide spectrum of options. I had the Spanish Harissa Chicken and it did not disappoint. The chicken was tender and flavorful with enough heat to let you know you were entering into something spicy without compromising the other flavors. The service was attentive and friendly. The pricing for lunch was pretty reasonable. J would definitely be back. Please give them a shot, as it is so good to see a local, affordable place stand up and hopefully thrive amid a sea of boring chains and overpriced trendy fare.

Attention to detail was key. The Chicken Wings, not so much. I ordered them naked and unbreaded, hoping they were fresh, not frozen, prebreaded wings, which are too salty for me and leave a lot to be desired flavor wise, and they're tiny. I'll know next time not to order them. But I will order their salad all day long. Probably try their pizza if I can snag a few friends to help me eat it.

We've bought that…read moremany times for family events or lazy Sunday dinners when we didn't feel like cooking but wanted a "home cooked meal". We bought half-pans or full pans (And NO MATTER the size, it came with garlic bread, which was actually stale sub rolls they cut up and begrugingly covered in a delicious garlic butter sauce. But it was decent when fresh. But then they went drastically up on their prices. We still ordered from them a few times. The quality got worse and worse. this LAST time was horrific. The price was sky high (as we've come accustomed to) and then the quantity of both the broccoli and the chicken were less than usual, on top of the fact that half of the chicken was inedible. It's usually tender and well-seasoned. Most of the noodles were bare, so they skimped on the sauce too. And guess what? They didn't even give us the subpar garlic bread. And when we called about it, they said they weren't offwrong complimentary garlic bread anymore. huh?????? I don't know if that's true or if they just didn't want us to come back but we ordered a few weeks ago and definitely had it. If their rent went up, then just move. But your ONE job is delivering quality food. You're going to close sooner than later if you cut quality. And I JUST found out how good their steak and cheese subs are in the last year. Even with that said, their meat alone, as well as the meat-to-cheese ratio is perfection, but their bread is ALWAYS stale. I let that go because the filling is so good. I gave them that grace . EVERY TIME I got a sub, the bread was crumbly and borderline dry. So please find new vendors/chefs.... whatever you have to do. I've been living right up the street for YEARS and the quality has drastically gone down while the prices have drastically gone up. You can't sustain this. Seek professional help, please! You can turn this around

The interior is from the 1950s. Small, cramped booths, servers that look like they have been there forever, and a great casual family atmosphere, energy. I had a salad with creamy Italian ( delicious), a great big piece of chicken parm (delicious!) that came with a side of spaghetti. Oh yeah. They also serve you with your meal, Scali bread and butter. The food was served hot! I loved it! It seems like most places serve you warm food these days. The food was all delicious, friendly service and a really nice time. I tried to get a few slices to go, but they only serve their famous pizza as whole pies. The pizza is the star of the show here I hear, but I would say everything was the star. Great food, reasonable prices and a great atmosphere! I'll definitely have to go back there for their pizza. Beware if you are a little bit uh, big or Alan Thicke as the booths are very tight, a bit small and a bit cramped for my liking. It may be because I'm a little bit big( 6'2" 240 lbs.). I get it. Places generally weren't made to accommodate people my size. If you have never been here...why not?! Total Class place.
