    Medium wings, large cheese pizza, and our 2 waters
    Bri H.

    Rounded out Father's Day at Mario & Salvo's. It was quiet when we first got there and ordered, but definitely picked up as we waited for our food. We chose to stay in and eat there and the food didn't take long at all to be done. We ordered a large cheese pizza and 12 medium wings. Pizza came out hot and perfect, we all loved it. The wings weren't bad either but weren't our favorite (we like our wings saucy). I don't know what everyone else thinks but pizza and wings is not the cheap dinner you expect it to be anymore. Large cheese, 12 wings, and one large soda came out to be roughly $40. Overall we enjoyed ourselves and we're able to relax there and enjoy the meal. There's a small area with enough seating for a few families to eat. The employees are very nice and very hardworking.

    Grandma Pizza

    Since moving up to 'Cuse from Long Island, the one food I'd say I've craved the most is a traditional grandma slice of pizza. Different from the thicker and fluffier Sicilian style square slice, a grandma slice is a thinner, crispier style pizza that is layered with cheese and followed by dollops or drizzles of hearty, garlicky tomato sauce. Mario and Salvos has truly mastered a wonderful grandma style pizza- so much so, they were even named the best pizza in Syracuse and we'd have to agree. This was truly a phenomenal pie, and the wings were also crispy and delicious. We will certainly be back for more!

    So far this is the most authentic NYC style pizza I've found in CNY. The pizza is thin, crispy, and light. The sauce is seasoned and the oregano is prominent, so if that's not your thing you may not like it. Personally, it's not a preference, but I did not mind it. What's not pictured is the Sicilian slice and buffalo chicken slice that I had. The Sicilian, despite looking dense was far from. It was very light. Shockingly light. It was crispy yet the dough was soft (not undercooked soft). I really enjoyed it. The buffalo chicken slice, while also thing and light did not do it for me. The chicken was on the drier side and lacked a strong buffalo flavor. I'll pass on this the next time. I loved the interior. The sign/menu on the inside was very nostalgic looking. Think old school NYC pizzeria. Loved it. Service was good, the owner checked up on everyone who was eating and asked how the quality of food was. I liked that he cared about it. So far, this is the best pizza I've found in CNY and I absolutely will be back.

    a slice of broccoli pizza
    Erica O.

    Just went to try a slice for lunch. Small pizzeria, but several long tables to sit down and enjoy your food. Hard to choose as they had lots of pies out for slices. They are small/ average size slices and I selected broccoli and cheese. They warmed it up and it just took a few minutes. The cheese was tasty and melty, the broccoli cooked nicely and it was thin and had that perfect cooked bottom from the pizza oven. Next time I'm going for a whole pie to eat fresh cooked directly out of the oven. I saw a few come out and looked amazing.

    Buffalo chicken pizza.... It's the best

    I love this place! I make a point to come here every time I'm in town. This place isn't fancy, there are a few places to sit, but their pizza rocks! What makes the pizza so good is the crust! The crust is the perfect amount of crunch with just a hint of salt on the bottom! The toppings are simple and good. This is straight forward NY pizza at its best!!!

    They're showered is nothing to write home about. I have noticed in the last three years they have developed a pompous, arrogant atmosphere.

It would've helped if we checked the dining hours. Got there 15 minutes ahead of opening, which was fine. Sat down in a nice open-aired dining room, Clean, airy, white table cloth. The place filled up quickly. Our server Rachel was quick to come over with a warm invite, water, and brought bread, butter, and oil. If you like Italian food, this is a place you should hit up. Huge variety of dishes, including a wide array of appetizers, soups, and sides. I'm a huge fan of eggplant so couldn't resist. Our service said it was excellent. She was right. It comes one of two ways in that you can get it as a dinner or à la cart. I went with à la cart which included a house salad and a side dish of pasta. Saw Utica greens on the appetizers and couldn't resist. They were fantastic. You can get them mild medium or hot. Medium it was. Strongly recommend these if you are a fan of Utica greens. Prepared to perfection. As the eggplant approached the table I was impressed how large of a serving it was. So big I couldn't eat the whole thing. The eggplant was outstanding. It was thinly sliced. It melts in your mouth. It's smothered in their red marinara sauce. The sauce is on the sweet side, which is how I prefer. Excellent! With the à la cart meal, you get a choice of a side dish. Being a big fan of Angel hair pasta, the decision was an easy one. About the side salad, it's a good size salad to accompany your dinner. A lot of fresh veggies, carrots, red cabbage, tomatoes, and olives. A sign of a good restaurant is one you'll go back to. We will be back.

Then, For appetizers, the arancini, the polpette, the crab crostini, and the trapanese pizza. The Arancini were good, very cheesy. I loved the polpette - the meatballs had almost a crispy exterior, mix in the ricotta and they were excellent. The crab crostini special was just okay, not too special. The trapanese pizza was phenomenal - thin, crispy, cheesy. For entrees, with whatever room we had left, we tried the bolognese and the zozzona. Bolognese was good but the zozzona was great. The sauce was good and the sausage was very tasty. Wrapped it all up with an affogato. Would recommend!

I checked OpenTable for 6:30PM on a Wednesday night and it said there was nothing within 3-1/2 hours. I found this very odd and since I was on my own, I ventured on down anyway to see if I could score a spot at the bar, which I easily did because they were only 1/4 full and the bar only had 3 other people at it when I arrived. I believe the bartender's name was Justin and he was great... very friendly and helpful, as well as engaging. He constantly checked on me and discussed the menu and restaurant, as well as their offerings. I chose their All 'Amatriciana with their slightly breaded chicken breast on top. The chicken was so very good! The All 'Amatriciana itself was so bland. I was disappointed in how bland it was. There was no spice at all to it, so I asked for their crushed red pepper and ended up putting several spoonfuls on it - turns out their crushed red peppers are either old or stale, but they're definitely bland and useless, as they didn't add any spike to the flavor of this dish and if the chef used these to season this dish while making it, that would explain some of what it was so bland. I will say that their table bread was outstanding! It came with their whipped butter, seasoned with honey and parmesan and that combo was so good! Too bad I didn't order something else, like pizza, as this is what I initially saw in reviews that looked amazing. I'm sure they normally are great here, I just came on an off night.
