Santino's Little Italy, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood with rich history echoing years gone by in the City of Milwaukee. The building housing the restaurant is over 130 years old and has been beautifully remodeled by talented designers and carpenters. The vibe has an old school Brooklyn New York feeling and is the perfect place to make wonderful memories with friends and family.

The menu features delicious gourmet pizzas / house-made pastas / salads / appetizers / deserts along with delicious Italian wine / cocktails and are professionally served to you by our attentive staff. Our amazing Neapolitan Style Pizza is hand made with the finest and freshest ingredients and cooked in a 6,000-pound Italian woodfired oven. With humility and gratitude our pizza was ranked nationally as the 46th best pizza in North America and we are very proud to serve many happy diners here in Milwaukee.

Reservations are highly recommended as space is limited. We look forward to serving you.

    So glad we found this place! The giant meatball pasta dish was delicious and the pizza was so good. The atmosphere is perfect — cozy, comfortable and welcoming. The staff could not have been more friendly or attentive. This was our first trip to Santino’s — won’t be our last!

    We never tried Santino's Little Italy before, but will definitely be returning often. Excellent service, great food and a relaxing atmosphere (we could easily carry on a dinner conversation. )

    Everything was great. Service was great food was good. The only thing was we took a pizza home. Sausage onion and pepper. There was like a handful of sausage on the pizza. Maybe 2 pieces max on each slice. Some only had one piece of sausage on it. It was good. Just needed more meat on it.
