I'm ashamed it took me this long to write a review of Submarinos. This place is fantastic. On my first visit I tried a slice of their meatlovers and a slice of their Sicilian. Both were excellent. On my second visit I had their "Assorted" sandwich, which was fantastic. The biggest surprise of them all? Their burger. Yup, a pizza joint that makes a killer BURGER! They make their own buns in house, and they look like giant garlic knots. They've even got shoestring fries, which I love. Even their cookies rock, so give them a try.

My favorite pizza spot nearby. It's just so good. The pizza, wings, calzones, subs and surprising enough, the burger. They have a great burger served on break that's like the knots, it's delicious. Friendly employees and comfy inside. Never had a bad experience here and I've been here 10+ times. I went to a pizza party where everyone brings their own pizza and I picked this place, brought a pepperoni and jalapeno. It's was easily the most popular, blew barros and the other bullshit out of the water. Love this place.

The Super White, with spinach and roasted red peppers swapped in for the tomato slices and red onion slivers.

We found Submarinos through a post in the Arizona Pizza Lovers group on Facebook. I had read up on the place in advance, and knew that it had a lot of great things to offer. We started with the garlic cheese bread which, I will tell you, has to be the best garlic bread, and garlic cheese bread, that we have ever had. They get their baked goods delivered fresh every morning from Capistrano's Bakery in South Phoenix, and you can tell it's fresh. Then they make the garlic butter in-house, lavishly apply it to the bread, let it soak in, then chill the combo to allow the butter to re-congeal and form a layer within the bread. They then bake it to order (with or without cheese), and the result is phenomenal. The bread is soft on the inside, has just the right crisp on the outside, the Roma mozzarella is fresh, flavorful and gooey (and is a healthy but just-right amount), and then that layer of buttery goodness delivers a punch for a finish. They serve the bread with a large side of fresh, thick, house-made marinara sauce, also outstanding, more savory than sweet. Heaven in a basket, and I mean that. (It went so fast that I didn't even have time to remember to capture a photo. The closest I could come was the remnants of the sauce cup!) I then moved on to their meatball sub (my wife saved room for the pies). Same bread, same sauce, freshly-made meatballs, covered with a liberal amount of the same cheese and baked. Meatballs were moist and flavorful, and everything played well together. Delizioso! 'Nuff said. (I managed to snapshot the back end of this one.) Then the stars of the show arrived at the table, hot and fresh. They were arranged in a double stack, with a half-and-half cheese and pepperoni/sausage pie below, and a Super White pie above. The half-and-half was the 12 Days complimentary: the cheese golden brown, the sausage well-seasoned and all the meat cooked just right. The crust was baked to a nice color and crispness, with the requisite, foldable flop. The Super White was comprised of an olive oil and garlic base, with ricotta and mozzarella cheeses and the same savory sausage. It normally also comes with a liberal covering of sliced tomatoes and red onion slivers, neither of which appeal to us and which we thus swapped out for roasted reds and spinach. I then had asked for an extra crisp (well done) cook on this pizza to both cook the heavier ingredients longer and establish a firmer base to hold them, and the crew happily obliged. Everything was done to order, and it couldn't have been executed better. The manager, Lacey, bent over backwards to deliver for us. As we had a substantial amount of leftovers, she brought us take-home boxes and even refilled our marinara dipping sauce cup and provided us with an equivalently-sized side of ranch (you can see from the photo that these cups are not small). As we went in the middle of the afternoon, the clientele level was very low, so she also had the luxury of patiently chatting with us and answering any questions we had. She was extremely personable and we could tell she had a passion for serving great food and making customers happy. Short story long, Submarinos was an excellent find for us. Thus far, in a long line of great west side pizzerias, we rank it our favorite.

Lunch special -Small Philly
Rebekah D.

Very welcoming, I came in during lunch. It seemed like there were a lot of regulars or they are just that personable. The guy working the kitchen came up to take my order since another worker was on the phone and the other was cleaning. I liked how it was very clean. She swept up the dining area about 3x in the hour I was there. The food did not take long, I just ate slowly for once. There's Pepsi products, Gold Peak iced tea. I had a lunch special, a small hot sandwich with a drink and chips. The sandwich I had was the Philly, but they also had things like a Chicken or Eggplant Parm. The guy taking my order said the Philly was one of their best sellers. I have a big appetite and I ate the sandwich but saved the chips for later bc I was pod off just the sandwich. It was nicely done, not too salty which is always good. Definitely not too greasy which is generally a concern of mine with Philly sandwiches. It was tasty. The bread was toasted, and had a decent flavor. It wasn't too cheesy, which I'm sure some of y'all might say, you can never have too much cheese. I'm just saying it was balanced. I definitely want to come back and try other sandwiches or maybe to satiate my sweet tooth. They have cookies y'all. Yasssss.

Eggplant Delight Pizza
Aliyah J.

Love this place!! Best take out pizza for a night in at home, we've never actually dined in. We fight over the last slice in this house! It's not on the menu anymore, but the staff is always so kind and makes the Eggplant Delight for us still. It's truly a delicious pizza and I'm grateful for a vegetarian option that goes beyond just peppers, onion, and olives. We also love the garlic knots, especially with extra red sauce to also dip your pizza crust in.

Their smallest size whole pizza is 16 inches. I got myself one of those with 3 toppings and it cost me $22.30. It had 8 slices in it and 3 of them made me full which means that it's $8.36 for a meal. The only topping I felt meh about was the ricotta. Otherwise, service was friendly and they made my pizza in 18 minutes of time. Parmesan cheese and crushed red peppers are also free unlike some other chain pizza places out there.

First time here. Great customer service, nice little spot tucked away in the corner of shopping center. Pizza slices are big and dough is perfect thickness. The mozzarella sticks were great as well

When you walk through the door of this little deli, you are greeted like you are home. Everyone is…read moreso friendly and that is refreshing in a big metropolis like Phoenix. We saw all the desserts right when we walked in and let me tell you, sooooo good. We settled for deli sandwiches and some salads. All very good. I plan to try everything on the menu so this will one of many reviews. The value was quite reasonable and we had leftovers, so two meals from one sandwich! So much meat on it that you fill up fast. The best part about being in the deli is the atmosphere. There is a full grocery store of Italian foods, people eating at the dining area and ordering going on at the deli counter. It is a fun place to be. Highly recommend!

Romanelli's is a marvelous Italian grocery store. TEN STARS! The kind of place that hits you with…read morenostalgia before you even grab a basket. I stepped into this joint and transported back in time - Sunday after church, five years old again with my grandparents, standing at the counter of Giannella's in Paterson, NJ. With the exception of the cashier dude, the staff was...uh..."mezza morto," and definitely in need of some Italian or Italian-American inspiration. A little life. A little rhythm. A smile perhaps. I ordered a chicken cutlet sandwich, add wet mozzarella, hot soppressata, roasted red peppers, oil, and balsamic.. The cutlets were too thick and the mozzarella, although fresh, was strangely tasteless. Apparently this sandwich was infused with gold, crypto, or something because it rang in at $24 with the add-ons. My person had the eggplant parm, which unfortunately was over-seasoned with only a slight trace of mozzarella. The marinara on the side was undefinable. We hit the bakery on the way out. The sfogliatella and cannoli were great, and so were the ladies behind the counter, warm, lively, and actually happy to be there. Look, I'm goin' back to Romanelli's. I'll even pay another $24 for a sandwich. There's a reason this place has been there for decades, and they deserve another shot.
