We initially had little expectations, the hot pizza turned out to be a delightful surprise. The thin, foldable crust provided a perfect texture, and the generous toppings on the veggie pizza added to the overall enjoyment. The gigantic size truly reflects the authentic New York style. We thoroughly relished the entire experience.
Surprisingly nice food and service, despite only having one staff by the time we got there. He is friendly, super patient and helpful when taking our orders. The pizza is also great, it’s got crispy crust and not too soggy or oily, we really enjoyed it.
Food was tasty, atmosphere was nice and service was fast. Only problem is they didn't have any spoons left for the ice cream. Overall a very good experience
It's NYC on Litchfield Street. Sal's is everything it is ment to be and more.
Friendly staff, great kiwi service, and True Authentic New York Pizza. Look out New Zealand the best pizza in town has arrived.
Outstanding!
A must do for lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed.
One of the best pizza options in Christchurch. Fresh, quality ingredients with great taste.
Sal's has the most faithful rendition of a good New York pizza that my (upstate) New Yorker wife had found in NZ, and therefore our go to establishment pizza. Massive pies with great traditional, and some proprietary toppings as well, all on a super, thin base that you can fold. My favorite are the (spicy, but also available as non-spicy) buffalo wings with blue cheese dressing. There are other great side goodies on offer too, my wife is partial to sneaky pepperoni wheel, and I'm happy to seagull any leftovers. Great clean diner-esk atmosphere with booths and U.S sports on the big screen. They are a little pricey, but usually we'll get a next day lunch for the both of us after we're done for dinner. If you're looking for a great New York style pizza you'll not go wrong at Sal's!
Great pizzas, huge flavours! A little oily, but I it's probably just because they're a bit different to what we're used to in NZ.
Really great place. First time at a Sal's restaurant, loved it , loved the pizza, best I've had for a long time.
Sal's review update of the day (because if I re-reviewed it every time I came I would look like a stalker): I have never been disappointed by the music at Sal's. Likewise for the customer service (but I think they somehwat recognize me now), the service is still as good as it was the day I found this gem.
Delicious, delicious pizza! Garlic knots were a great surprise: doughy on the inside yet crispy on the outside and the tomato sauce is 10/10. Will definitely be back!
