    Baked Mostaccioli
    Jenn K.

    A family run business worth supporting . The wait staff was super friendly and service was very attentive . Lots of tables for seating so it wasn't a long wait. Could see lots of take out orders leaving which is always a good sign too Over all the food was tasty , being from back east there were some more unusual choices than your typical local Italian. A large portion of their food is home made like their desserts and appetizers , and ravioli , lasagna. Their pizza is deep dish Chicago and thin crust The deep dish looked tasty but we got the pizza . It was made more with what seemed like a cracker crust ( not home made?) reminded me of boxed pizza . The toppings where sold per item so be careful it adds up quick My favorite is they have homemade Neapolitan ice cream sundaes and tiramisu. We too a slice home for later. We wanted to try it , but at 10,00 it was a bit pricey for it . But lots of things are going that direction

    Food and service was amazing. Best pizza I've had in such a long time. Crumb cake was also amazing. The sausage was made in house, just so fresh and amazing. Will definitely be back several times.

    When you go in a restaurant and the staff knows 90% of the tables. You know you are at the right place, Trish knows her FAMILY of customers. As it was our first time eating there, it was a welcomed change! Everyone was amazing. When you go in you step up to the counter and order from the menu and they will bring the food to your table. Oddly, I liked the pay before you eat, casual eating experience. My daughter ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, garlic bread, brownie with cup ice cream. I ordered the lasagna. Garlic bread was very good! Soft bread dipped in a melted garlic butter..dripping good! Lasagna, I was told by Trish, were made in house. $19.99 will feed 2 people. Lasagna was 5 layers with Italian sausage, mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese (?), house made spaghetti sauce. With a crispy cheese goodness on the outside edge! Sauce was delicious, , not overly seasoned and not salty. Only down side I personally had with the dish is that I thought the layers should have been fuller,or more of it. Layers were thin and 1 bottom layor of Italian sausage. The lasagna noodles were amazing but I just wanted a thicker hardier bite. The chocolate chip brownie is house made! Huge! Enough for 2 people.. down side... the cup vanilla ice cream if you get that... Just get the brownie! Overall great experience, we will return. I was eyeing the old school rotating pizza oven.. next time

    This was our first time eating at Salerno's, we live down the street and drive by it all the time and finally made our way in. At first, we were confused because we didn't know if there was seated service or if we had to order at the counter. After that, we figured that you had to order at the counter and then take your table. The adults split a cheese pizza with Italian sausage and ricotta cheese, my husband got a calzone, and my daughter got spaghetti with butter. My husband's only gripe was that the calzone was very doughy, and he wished that there was more toppings and cheese on the inside. But my mom and I shared a pizza and it was delicious. I loved how the pizza was baked and the texture of the cheese on the top! Next time we won't wait to come back to Salerno's, it will make its way into our rotation of new restaurants! The staff were very friendly, it seems like a very nice family restaurant.

    We recently catered from Selenro's Restaurant & Pizzeria for a large party and were beyond impressed! We ordered cheese ravioli, mostaccioli, fettuccine Alfredo, vegetarian mostaccioli, and garlic bread--and everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, the pasta perfectly cooked, and the portions were generous. It ended up being the perfect amount of food plus extra leftovers. The only (very minor) hiccup was the garlic bread--we thought it would be traditional garlic bread, but it came as sliced bread with Parmesan cheese on the side. We ended up buttering, seasoning, and toasted. Overall, this was a fantastic experience and we'll definitely be ordering again. Can't wait to try more from their menu! The staff was so helpful they even assisted in putting in my SUV.

    Very simple concept. Order at the counter, but pretty much just serve yourself after that. Staff is constantly checking on you though. The owner (I assume) even checked on us numerous times to make sure we were enjoying our dishes. Ordered garlic cheese bread, an all meat pizza, chicken alfredo, and chicken franchaise. Garlic cheese bread was amazing and honestly, I can't remember the last time I had pizza this good! Soooo much flavor... and the crust? Omg the crust was something I've never tasted before. Chef's kiss . The chicken franchaise (spelling?) was also phenomenal. It was so tender that even the next day it was delicious. They don't do much to garnish or make their dishes look fancy, but don't be misled. Their modesty is all an act because those dishes are an explosion of flavors. I can't believe I've never tried this place before. We'll definitely be back. Make sure to go hungry too, because they're not stingy on portions size.

    If you want thin-crust Chicago pizza ,you should give it a try. Close your eyes you can almost hear the L train off in the distance.

He usually gets a plain pie (pizza with cheese), which he says is great, and I have had several different kinds of pizza during our visits to Sal's and each one has been amazing - plus, they have garlic powder at each of the tables. The calamari and tiramisu are also fantastic!! The service is always great - our servers are consistently friendly and helpful. The place is super cute and homey and can accommodate both big and small parties. It's a good thing that Sal's is 20 minutes from us, or else we would probably be here at least 3 times a week, something that would do considerable damage to both of our waistlines.

Either way, it was an amazing slice! I typically add some grated parm, Italian seasoning and black pepper, (They have them), this pie needed nothing!!! 8.5 rating. Portnoy scale. Which means excellent!!! The other slice was a Neopolitan cheese slice. With added basil. I love good basil pie. Again, fantastic!!! Scored 8.5. I'll go back and try some Italian foods as everything coming out of the kitchen looking non nom nom!!!

She immediately told us the kitchen would be closing in 10 minutes (we arrived at 7:19 and they close at 8), which already made the experience feel a bit rushed. We ordered a deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza, a Caesar salad, fries, and water. The salad and fries came out quickly and were good, but we waited until 7:52 for the pizza. During that time, several staff members including what seemed to be a manager, were loudly yelling back and forth across the restaurant about staffing and schedules. With no music or TV volume, it was impossible not to hear, and it felt very unprofessional. Meanwhile, our water glasses sat empty. I had to ask three separate times for refills, and the third time I actually had to get up and find our server at the bar, where she was sitting, still discussing the schedule. When the pizza finally arrived, it was delicious. But basic things like Parmesan and pepper weren't offered. I had to flag someone down to ask. And even though we'd just received our food, the lights on the patio were turned off while we were eating, and we were brought a box very quickly, which felt like a not-so-subtle hint to leave. Overall, the food was good, but the customer service and atmosphere really took away from what should have been a nice birthday dinner for my daughter. Very disappointing experience.

I made a reservation for a family of four and arrived on time during an early dinner period when the restaurant was not yet full. Because we were dining with a toddler and a baby, I politely asked if we could be seated indoors. There were several empty tables inside, but the hostess insisted that those tables were reserved. When I mentioned that I also had a reservation, her response was dismissive and came across as rude. She seemed annoyed and said, "So what? Do you want to sit outside or not?" The weather wasn't terrible, but with two young children, I had hoped for a little more understanding and flexibility. My husband was upset enough that he wanted to leave, but we stayed to avoid disrupting dinner for our kids. The food was still very good, which is why this experience was so surprising. I would recommend additional customer service training for the hostess staff, as the quality of service should match the quality of the food.
