    An family owned and executed business that has been around for 45years. This place is delicious and a new favorite of ours for all sandwiches! The staff was very friendly and very helpful immediately upon entering. They sensed it was our first time and assisted to make the decision more pleasant. The store was clean and there were plenty of seating available for a Friday lunch hour. The portions were hefty and fulfilling! Parking could be limited as it is shared with the surrounding businesses. A must return for us. Enjoy!

    Great sub shops seem few and far between in the area, and The Deli was just what I was looking for. Reminds me of the sub places I had in NJ. So many great things about it, starting with the bread. Sturdy to hold up to a lot of filling, but chewy. The meat is sliced thin and fresh. Even the 8" sub is a significant size. I went with The Madd Italian and my wife had the Super Smokey. Biggest regret... The place isn't closer by. Can't wait to be back.

    Ordered the super deli, he asked what cheese, and The new guy only put cheese on the super deli

    Turkey Sub

    Delicious subs! My husband and I were in the plaza and hungry and decided to stop by. We were very happy with that decision. I got a 12" Turkey & Provolone and he got a 12" Mad Italian. The subs were a good size with fresh ingredients and we enjoyed them! Was the bread freshly baked compared to some other sub shops? No, but it didn't affect my 5 star rating because they were still soft and the overall subs were delicious and they held up even when stuffed full! Prices were a bit on the higher side but not crazy compared to other sub shops and we felt it was worth it. The staff were courteous to us although they were clearly busy. We enjoyed our food and would definitely come back!

    The Madd Italian Sub

    I was really craving a deli sub and stumbled across this place and I must say it did not disappoint. Just a cute deli shop with classics and other hot options as well. I had no idea what I wanted but the guy was super friendly and helpful. He asked what I was in the mood for and suggest the Mass Italian. It was indeed a great choice. The price was a bit more expensive than a chain but for the fresh ingredients and delicious deli meats it was worth it. The 12" Made Italian basically was like 2 meals

    The Super Smokey
    Shannon E.

    So this place is a regular for me because it's just so solid. I typically get the super Smokey, it has roast beef, ham, turkey and cheese. The heavenly trio for a grinder in my view. The service is top notch and the quality of ingredients can't be beat. The have a ton of variety. Combos to die for...anyway highly recommend when is sub is what your body needs.

    The Mad Italian

    This is the Fairfax location for this small chain. Same as the one in Herndon. Real Italian hoagies. It's worth a little more $ for the quality. Definitely check them out.

    Came in as a walk in not knowing anything about the deli and what they specialized in but Ro was very helpful and super friendly even gave me a sample of the potato salad which was delicious! I ended up going with the Mad Italian I highly recommend it to anyone that likes a slight kick but not too spicy. I would definitely recommend this family owned restaurant to anyone in the area I'm happy I stumbled upon this awesome establishment!

    As one of the main coordinators for our school teacher appreciation week luncheons, I had two…read moregoals: 1) Support local 2) Feed our staff WELL I chose Santini's due to their proximity to our elementary school and easy catering menus that were located online. We went with the VIP Board Room Lunch which for $17.95 per person included assorted sandwich platters, salad, chips, fruit salad, and a dessert tray. I sent an email request online and was contacted by a manager via phone to coordinate the details. School lunch times are ridiculously early and the staff came in an hour earlier than usual to make sure our order was ready to go by 10:15 am. Is that service or what? Everything was packaged beautifully so it was easy to serve, and the staff was so impressed by the quality of the subs and salads. Platters were plentiful and guests were able to go back for seconds which was amazing. Two small recommendations for next time: 1) Make sure to specify that the dessert tray is properly labeled. There were a few items with surprise nuts in it which could have been an issue if not spotted. 2) The catering menu mentioned that fruit salad would be served with the meal -- we got a few boxes of bananas instead which is a bit misleading.

It was a rather pleasant reminder. The pizza was spot on: beautifully baked with a crisp base and generous toppings, while the chips were golden, fluffy within, and exactly as they ought to be. Simple fare, perhaps, but executed exceedingly well. Ordering at the counter was straightforward and efficient, and the service itself was courteous and welcoming without being overbearing -- always appreciated. I shall most certainly be making a point of visiting far more regularly from now on. It would be a shame not to.

The roll was reminiscent of a Philly sub roll, which - now this may be polarizing - is the standard by which I judge all sub rolls. Philadelphia just has the best subs ;) Anyway - they use good deli meats here. I don't think they make their own fries, but they were nice and crispy with a bit of seasoning on them and went well with our sandwiches. My husband had the cheesesteak and said it was just meh - definitely steak-ums - but we are from the self-proclaimed cheesesteak capital of the world :) Don't pass up the dessert case though - I am not a sweets person, but they had this triple cheese thing that was like a cheese danish, but with a million times more cheese and just a little bit of pastry, we... uhhh... devoured it... It paired really nice with their house chocolate gelato, which was the definition of rich, decadent chocolate. The lady at the register was kind enough to allow us to try a side-by-side of the house and the machine gelato... word of advice... skip the machine, go with the house gelato - the flavor (and the serving size) knocks that name-brand, machine mumbo jumbo out of the park :) Honestly, just a great sandwich joint with a little store selling specialty items, many of which are from Italy (I will be back for some squid ink pasta the next time I am cooking for friends!). Lovely little gem :)

Lot parking is abundant for a quick in and out if you're grabbing to go. * SUPER FRIENDLY STAFF and FAST, EFFICIENT SERVICE - I went in around 9AM on a Sat - no long line - walked right up to the counter and ordered - sat at a table and my order was called about 10 minutes later. * It was bfast time and I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sando $8 on a lightly toasted ET bagel - delicious and they didn't skimp on any of the ingredients! The bagel was big, hearty and chewy. A perfect breakfast to go. * PRICES ARE VERY FAIR and I felt I got good value for what I paid. $13 basically for a bfast sando and a bottle of juice (drinks are always a rip-off - $3.50, half the cost of my sando but it is what it is...) * The inside of the restaurant itself is sorta small and cramped - as you walk in, the left side is the ordering side, the right side is the seating area with a good amount of tables and chairs - most importantly, they keep the place neat and clean which is a big deal to me. It's a little dark and drab in ambiance/decor and I could see it getting a bit chaotic if the place fills up and with long lines at the counter. On nice weather days, there are some outside tables. I don't come to this area of Fairfax all that often - just happened to be in the area that morning and literally searched for a bagel place on Yelp and hardly any came up. Fortunately I happened to be close by. When I'm in the area again AND happen to be hankerin' for a bagel sandwich, I'll most definitely come back here again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS INDIE BAGEL SHOP IN DOWNTOWN FAIRFAX!
