Customer Reviews

Got Italian Subs to eat for the next day. They were very good and I'm sure they would have been even way better had we got to eat them fresh. Very friendly staff.

Imo, Union Square lacks great pizza. Sure, all the Indian joints around here make good pizza. Hotbox is great. However, they all feel like a different pizza experience that isn’t the “classic” pizza I’ve been looking for. For me, Caesar’s hits that mark. Stopped in for a slice of cheese pizza on a 90 degree day in June. No flop, cheese to sauce ratio was just what I like. Atmosphere feels old school, lots of coke memorabilia, good classics being played over the radio. AC was on and I was enjoying a cold bottle of Mexican Coke. Is this not the ideal atmosphere for consuming pizza?? Owner was focused but friendly. I’ll def be coming back!

Been coming here since the 70's . I know the father and Luis the son took over and it has stayed with the best ingredients and kind service as usual. It was always a family atmosphere!

Pleasantly surprised and happy with Caesar's Pizza & Subs. I've driven by a lot and decided to give this place a try tonight for walk-up / takeout. Menu & prices clearly written on the walls, lots of choices. I wanted to try a pizza slice and they offered Regular & Sicilian style. I also spied a Special Chicken Parm sandwich with Prosciutto the Mozzarella that i couldn't resist. Place was clean and staff was friendly. Prices quite reasonable as well. Got home and loved the flavors! Sicilian style with pepperoni was tasty and quite good but tonight's star was the Special Chicken Parmesean (full sandwich)! Really deep delicious flavors fun both the sauce, parmesean, and prosciutto especially. Very good portions as well. As a Philly boy who grew up with really good pizza & sub shops, I'm very happy to find this place. Looking forward to exploring the menu more.

Finally got to try this place I walked in for a slice and couldn't help but water more excellent customer service seemingly high quality and delicious food all at a fair price. Considering this is far from the Italian neighborhoods in Boston you can still get a taste for them here. Also deliciously seasoned french fries . Very casual Sub Shop; great price, great food.

Old school pizza joint since 1978. I’ve only tried the pizza and a Caesar wrap but I will definitely be back. The service is friendly and the food is fresh and tasty. The shop was clean. Support local small businesses. Prices are very reasonable.
