"The pizza was amazing! The meatballs in the baller sub were definitely homemade. They were so light and fresh. The one drawback I found with the place was the fact that the door opened inward instead of out. I had a large order with a few pizzas and a bag. It was a struggle to get out and nobody ( including a couple of customers standing right near the door) helped me open the door."

"Good hero. Had chicken parm and meatball parm. Contents: 5; Sauce 5; Bread 3. Well sauced. Bread is typical for area - crustless, soft interior, benign taste - but that's how you like it. No shade Boston."

"The Perfect Cheese lives up to its reputation. The only thing I will change for next time is to leave off the extra basil on top (only because of my very Irish palette that shy away from spices) but I assume that is an easy ask through the comments when ordering. Also got the Italian with the cheesy garlic bread and have been informed it's a 2 Will be back and will recommend"

"The square Roman pizza is exceptional. It’s a small place so I would think takeout is best. Seriously great pizza though - I would say the square one is the best outside of Boston. A must try."

"I work at a salon nearby and found Mortadella on TikTok and it looked so good I had to try. I’m so glad I did! The Caesar sandwich is life changing. I also think the prices are fair for how big and filling the sandwiches are."

"I did takeout from the Wellesley location. The Italian (the one with prosciutto) was excellent. The meats and cheese were of high quality and in abundance. Loved it with the arugula and roasted red peppers. Best I have have outside of the North End."

"I love pizza and I have to say it's really hard to find good pizza in the suburbs especially the Wellesley area. Mortadella Head is definitely one of the better pizza places I've been to in the 'burbs. I really liked that they had a large variety of specialty pizzas plus you have the option of two different pizza styles (round or roman). If you like your crust on the crispy side you'll like this pizza. Still, the crust was kind of too thick for my tastes on the round pizza. The sauce they use is tasty and they're not stingy on the toppings. The pizzas are definitely oversized too. I ordered two pizzas for three adult men expecting to have some leftover and only one pizza was consumed because these pizzas are so big and filling. I've also tried some of their subs which were good and I recently ordered their "mozzarella sticks" which I'm putting quotes around because these are not traditional mozzarella sticks. They're more like mozzarella logs. They're easily 3-4x's as thick as a typical mozzarella stick and twice a long. For me, this was just way too big and the breading layer was too thick plus they only gave me one tiny little dipping sauce container of tomato sauce for this mountain of cheese they sold me. Definitely not enough! Overall, I thought the food was very good at this restaurant. The staff was SUPER friendly and accomodating. My two largest critiques are . . . I wish it was a bigger space with some tables and I wish they had salads on their menu. They already have lettuce on hand for sandwiches so why not? If this place had salads, I'd definitely visit more often. For just pizza orders though . . . it's my new "go to" in Wellesley."

"Excellent, large sandwiches and the pizza is fine too. Great quality for a reasonable price. Mostly a takeout place but some people choose to eat there. This is one of the first places that come to mind when I think of excellent sandwiches. Ashlin, the young lady behind the counter is friendly, generous and responsive."
