Santarpio's Pizza - long-running East Boston pizzeria

Santarpio's Pizza at 111 Chelsea Street was established in 1903 and is one of Boston's oldest continuously operating pizzerias. The shop is particularly known for its grilled meat toppings (sausage and lamb) and a strong local reputation that draws neighborhood and citywide customers. Santarpio's long tenure makes it a frequently cited example in accounts of Boston's early 20th-century immigrant-run food businesses.
