It pains me to write this but my last two experiences at Santucci's are forcing me to consider not going there anymore. I've eaten there for about 15 years. I hope this review gets the restaurant's attention and it addresses the issue quickly. I'll give it one more shot but after that, if I have the same experience, I'll be done. The large pepperoni pizza I brought home last night was grossly undercooked. It was a pile of cheese and some pepperoni that basically slid right off the barely cooked crust. I ordered a large pizza, only to arrive and learn it didn't have a large crust -- which makes absolutely no sense at all. Do they not make their pizzas individually? I asked why the person on the phone didn't tell me. He said he didn't know when taking the order. I asked why they didn't call me when they realized they did know. He said they don't take customer phone numbers -- unlike every other restaurant in America.The last two times I've been there, the pizza has been undercooked. The buffalo wings were also undercooked and, unlike every other place I've ordered wings from, came with no additional container of sauce -- just the minimal amount placed on the wings. At least the cheese sticks were good.Santucci's has legions of fans and we're all pulling for the place to rebound -- but it's heading downhill -- fast. It's got two strikes against it with me. It will be out if there's a third.

A friend was "raving" about this place for years so I decided to stop by while driving thru Maryland tonight... I called to ask what should I get, he said the cheesesteak... I didBasically on a scale of 1-10 I give it a "4" there was hardly any meat on the sandwich and the steak that was on there wasn't the best of grades of meatThe onions were "store bought" but still better than the sandwich The employees were very friendly and the place was clean, I probably will not be going back

I've been here a few times and most of what I ordered was really good! But their Alfredo was tasteless and I wouldn't order again. But everything else was amazing

We understand that Santucci's changed owners and it's not what it used to be, but since we have nothing to compare, we both liked our subs. Nothing beats an NE/NY/NJ sub shop, but this isn't too far off. The sub roll had a good texture and was well-filled. Subs were big. My eggplant parm sub was tasty and my partner enjoyed his order. I'd return when the craving hits.

Two stars is being generous.... I was back in Wheaton for the 1st time in awhile so stopped in to one of my fav places. I had no idea it was sold, but new ownership doesn't have a clue. They clearly put some money into fixing the inside, but clearly didn't follow directions on how to make quality subs.Philly chicken cheese steak was my absolutely go to, however the one I got today had so little chicken, it was not seasoned at all, wrong type of lettuce, lettuce wasn't even shredded it was chopped, lettuce and tomatoes weren't fresh (had dark yellow sections), ketchup had a funky taste... I threw out 1/2 the sub. Hope new owners can turn it around.

I'm giving this place a 2/5 because of customer service. The place looks very outdated inside and I was not happy with my food at all. I ordered a roast beef sandwich. The meat was very cold, and the bread did not taste like it was toasted nor was I asked for the option. This ended up making the sandwich taste cold and soggy. I also specifically wanted hot peppers and it was not added to the order.Their old bay chicken wings, were meaty. However, there was no flavor on them. You could not taste a drop of old bay. & they could've have been more crispy. Even their Caesar salad looked thrown together. & they did not use romaine lettuce like it says on the menu.My partner was happy about his Italian cold cut and my son didn't care for his sandwich either but let's just say, I think their food sent them to the bathroom later on. Welp, I thought the prices were great but I see you get would you pay for.

Rest In peace, I'll always remember the old Santuccis went back after a year. The bread was like something out of the Safeway section. Carlo Santucci would be sad to see what has happened to this place. They cover the smaller portions of protein with a larger fuller bread that is obviously store bought. Won't be going back two stars are for the cleanliness and remodeled store

Oh my, what has happened since Carlos Santucci sold the place. If I were him, I'd take my name off the marquis. Twice when my brother was in town, he really wanted his usual Mozzarella and Tomato sub from Santucci's. I had to repeat it several times. What we got when we unwrapped it was only mozzarella on a kaiser roll with very little dressing, and the tomato was nowhere to be found. It was another disappointment. I will go to Filippo's in Wheaton the next time my brother comes to town. Goodbye Santucci's. The place was neat and tidy, a new floor , and I was greeted when I came in the door, so that's why there is one star.

This was the king of subs in the area. It's been sold and you can taste it. Marchones aka Phillipos was also sold, but it went better. It's been a few months. I'll try them once more soon but I'd currently recommend jersey mikes over this place. Will update soon.
