First time trying this place, and was interested to try their Sicilian style. It was unfortunately quite underwhelming. Had what seemed like good quality ingredients but didn’t blend well together in flavors. Also not enough cheese. But more importantly, they overcooked my pizza and had a lot of black char on both the edge of the crust and shaved off underneath. The burnt aspect took away any chance of the other flavors shining through. I’ll maybe give them another chance and try their original pizzas, but they need to do better for the price they’re charging.

This was our first—and very likely last—visit to Pizza by Sal. Walking in, we genuinely couldn’t tell if we had entered a pizza restaurant or a high-budget Chuck E. Cheese. Every table was packed with kids, screaming included, which completely killed any chance of enjoying a meal.
The garlic knots were laughable. Calling them “garlic” is generous—they were just plain bread with a light butter brush and absolutely zero garlic flavor. Portable? Sure. Flavorful? Not even close.
We ordered a pepperoni pizza with shaved garlic. The shaved garlic never showed up, but the charge certainly did. Apparently, garlic here is more of a concept than an ingredient.
The waiter was fine, but somehow managed to take my card without ever telling me the total. To this day, I still have no idea how much I paid, which is always a fun surprise after dinner.
Between the chaotic atmosphere, bland food, incorrect order, and mystery billing, this place checked all the wrong boxes. Not an experience I’d repeat.

One of the best Connecticut / NY Sicilian-style pies in the area. Good char on the bottom, no flop, everybody knows the rules ;). Pizza perfection.

I have ordered Pizza by Sal for delivery multiple times and am always very happy with the quality of food. Don’t tell Chicago but I love a New York style crust. They do a great job with pizza but also the pasta, meatballs and salad are delicious. I should have reviewed awhile ago because of the food but my most recent order motivated me now. There was a slight error in our order. Human beings make mistakes, every single one of us have. The way the staff handled fixing the error was above and beyond! The kindness I experienced left my heart as full as my belly! 😍

Great authentic thin crust pizza. Everything felt home made. Do not forget a dessert. The Tiramisu was delicious. Their bakery makes the finest. Cookies!!! So is the staff. Great. I will be back.

Stayed with MIL in Glenview, IL and naturally ate pizza on the daily. I gravitate toward thin crust NY style pizza and Sal’s wins in a landslide. Thin crust and oh so good. Cute place too!

Yo! The pizza is amazing because they use really good ingredients. Like, better than you can buy. I’m not a mushroom or tomato fan on pizza, and I’ve now learned it’s because I’m eating pizza with cheap ingredients. Sal’s Za was so good. I had sausage, mushroom, and tomatoes (because that’s what my father-in-law wanted) and it was awesome. We did half red, half white, and it felt like we had two completely differently pizza. 5+ stars. Keep it up Sal. The pizza is dope. Can’t go wrong with some quality pepper flakes or parm sprinkles tho.

This is a wonderful place. I wish I lived closer. The pizza slices I have had are delicious. I need to have the chicken parm sandwich.
Love this place. As a dine in experience terrific for kids too! Two arcade games, one TV on nickelodeon, and paying via code on your phone! (A godsend for parents needing to make a quick exit.) Our favorite spot in town, for take out and now dine in too!

Love this place so much! Not only is the pizza top tier the service is also outstanding. I highly reccomend trying the white sauce on your pizza with ricotta and razor thin garlic- stupidly good. When I walked in to pick up my order they asked me to wait a few minutes and turns out they made a mistake on my order so they remade the whole thing which took a little extra time but they were so kind and gave me a free box of cookies to compensate. Please give this place a try you won’t regret it!

AMAZING service and GREAT food. Get the Sally special. All the employees are so attractive! Everything has such a special touch to it! Bring your kids and an empty stomach for sure.
