" Whenever I want Italian food, I think of Santa Fe Importers. Their reputation for quality ingredients and authentic flavors shines through. The classic Italian hoagie is my favorite! You can feel the love they put into each sandwich. The prices are reasonable given the quality you get. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful experience at Santa Fe Importers last week! The Italian sausage sandwich was bursting with flavor, and the roll was perfectly fresh. The staff was extremely friendly, making the dining experience even better. I’ll definitely be returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" There’s something truly special about Santa Fe Importers! Every visit feels like a journey back to an authentic Italian deli. The meatball sandwich is a must-try—it’s always packed with flavor and served on freshly baked bread. Also loved the dessert selection. The staff makes you feel like family. Can't recommend this place enough, it’s worth the visit from any part of town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not pleased with my recent visit. The pastrami was dry, and the portion sizes were smaller than expected. The staff was friendly, but I didn’t enjoy my meal as much as I hoped. I used to love this place, so I’m hoping it will improve in the future. I will consider trying again but might look for other options first. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish I could give more than five stars! Everything about my visit was incredible—the food, service, and ambiance. Their Italian cheesesteak is fantastic! The mix of flavors is heavenly, and the portion size was just right. I felt like I was in a cozy family-run Italian eatery! " (*Curated Review*)

" Santa Fe Importers is not just a restaurant; it’s an experience! From the moment you step in, the aroma of fresh ingredients welcomes you. The sandwiches are enormous and bursting with authentic Italian flavors. The staff is always cheerful, and the place has a great local vibe. It’s a perfect spot for a casual lunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" On my lunchtime visit, I ordered the BBQ beef sandwich, but I have to say, I wasn't impressed. The meat lacked seasoning, and while the roll was decent, I expected much more flavor from such an esteemed deli. Service was alright, but the ambiance was noisy and crowded, which detracted from the experience. I’ll probably give it another chance in the future, hoping it’s just an off day. " (*Curated Review*)
