Santucci's Original Square Pizza

About the Business

Specialties

Santucci's Original Square Pizza finds its roots in South Philadelphia. Founded by the late Joseph and Philomena Santucci, the restaurant opened its door in 1959. During that year the Santucci family moved from South Philly to the Northeast and opened the first Santucci's Original Square Pizza on "O" Street in Juniata Park. Joe and Phil Santucci had a dream to create a strong family business in the hopes of leaving a lasting legacy for their children and grandchildren. That dream became a reality when their son, Frank took over the business and continued the tradition of delicious square pizza for nearly 40 years. Within the last 40 years, Frank, with the assistance of his three children has expanded his parents business to the Italian Market, North Broad, Roxborough and soon Vintner, New Jersey. The Santucci family welcomes everyone to enjoy their family's tradition and most of all delicious square pizza!

History

Established in 1959.

The Santucci Pizza brand is a family-owned business that originated in Northeast Philadelphia on "O" Street in Juniata Park. As our family grows, we are blessed to say, so has the Santucci brand. With three locations covering South Philadelphia, Center City, North Broad, and Roxborough, we are able to reach and serve a large portion of the city our brand is rooted in. With close to sixty years in business, our brand, best known for our Signature Square Pizza, has evolved from a neighborhood pizzeria into a full service restaurant known for great service and amazing Italian cuisine.
