I ordered roughly 30 pizzas for a new student orientation event for my department. I work at a large university in Boston and order most food for our events both faculty and student. Sal's did a fantastic job with the pizzas, packing them and getting them delivered on time. The delivery driver from Door Dash was EXCELLENT and we got great feedback from the students & faculty on the pizza. I will definitely use them again for larger orders. It's hard to find a reliable place willing to deliver on campus for large orders. Thank you Sal's! Knowing you're our go-to pizza place gives us peace of mind! read more

This pizza is exceptional. We especially enjoyed the buffalo chicken. We tried a few options and they were all great. The crust is full of flavor, crispy throughout and not overbearing. Great flavor balances. read more

Great pizza, friendly staff, and HUGEEEE slices! They were card only when we stopped in.

We go here all the time since we live in walking distance. Had a TERRIBLE experience today when they just opened (7/30). Rude, Rude, RUDE cashier. Clearly doesn't want to be there. We were the only people there, and yet he still clearly had an attitude. Little stocky guy with glasses. He needs to GO. read more

If you are new to Boston, you can't go wrong with Sal's pizza. I have added a photo, that in my opinion, is one of the most beautiful sights in life. Delicious pizza, hockey... ah you can't go wrong! read more

I bought 2 pieces of pizza in it came to $14. I was shocked by the price but by the end of finishing my meal I definitely did not regret it. This is the best pizza I've ever had in my life. Only annoying this is that there is no seats inside, so you kinda just have to stand over a table to eat. read more

worst pizza and service in Boston. Ordered cheese pizza and all sauce and very little cheese. Guys are counter were rude! Never again.

Wanted to get a slice, and oh boy they have some big ones here. One slice is actually 2. The flavor was good, I liked the crust but the sauce was rather bland. The reason there's only 3 stars was the huge burnt bubbles in the middle of the slices. Thereby eliminating about 1/4-1/3 of the slice. Consistency people, it matters. read more

I wasnt really a fan of this place. Boston has plenty of pizza places like this so there are some minimum expectations. I found the pizza tasted old eventhough they had heated it up for me. Pizza is pizza & I'm sure to some, this will satisfy your pizza craving. read more

I ordered a chicken caesar salad and you would've thought I asked for a steak dinner. The guy was talking about how bad their chicken looked as he was putting it on my salad and they told me I had to add my own cheese to it. When I told them I just wanted a basic caesar salad the man told me "we specialize in pizza not salad". i haven't even trued the salad yet but I'm definitely not excited to. read more

A single slice is 1/4th of a 19 inch pie and their cheese slice is $4.79 before tax. It's a great deal, so I wouldn't mind giving it another shot, but knowing there's several other fast casual places really close by it would be a missed opportunity to try somewhere new. read more

Sals Pizza on Tremont St, Boston, Ma. I will start on a positive note. The pizza wasn't bad. It was actually pretty good. Not a NY pizza, but not bad at all. However, the service is non existent. This is a family owned franchise, and I generally prefer to shop local & support Mom & Pop's. There were only 2 people there, I can only assume father and son. The older gentleman was cooking. As I said, the pizza was good. No complaints there. The young man working the counter however seemed bothered that he had to stand up & put his cellphone down long enough to take the customers orders. My medium pizza took about half an hour. This was not delivery. There isn't even a place to sit while you wait. You stand. Never once was there an apology or reason given for the delay. When my pizza was finally ready it was given a shove of a couple inches in my direction then the kid sat back down & picked up his phone. I wasn't offered any plates. He couldn't even be bothered to say thank you or have a nice day or anything if the sort. It seems customers are an inconvenience to him. They have a cooler that has zero beverages. They simply don't seem to sell them. My husband had to go to McDonalds for drinks for us & our daughter. read more

Food was good and staff was great, but their AC didn't work on a 93 degree day. The poor staff just kept on trucking. Never again

Traditional mom and pop pizza. The sauce is especially good. Good value on huge pizza slices. Freindly staff.

TL:DR - One of the better pizza chains around here. Two slices One 'slice' is really two! Pick - Mushroom Detailed Review Sal's is conveniently located across the street from Boston Common and just a block or so from the movie theaters. Pizza is nicely showcased in the restaurant. Service was great, really nice and helpful. Sal's is definitely a trusted name I would rely on for a decent slice and amaaaazing value for the dollar. Why do you ask? As you can see from the picture, I was pleasantly surprised when the gentleman behind the counter served me these two slices as I was starving. Granted, you'd probably pay the same, maybe a little less for a massive NY slice. Food *Mushroom - My favorite kind of pizza. The dough was nice and crispy, not overly crispy. And the inside was not overly chewy. Toppings and cheese tasted spot on read more

Great place to go.. lots of selection and the slices are gigantic. 1/4 of a 19" pizza.. prices are great too. Will definitely try to go there again before we leave to go back home from our trip. The sweet chili chicken is what I tried definitely a winner!!! read more

I am not a fan of Sal's pizza at all, I like a smooth sauce, do not think they offer one, huge tomato lumps on the pizza, went there once and done, I tried the one in Billerica, never see any car's in parking lot at lunch or dinner time, what doe's that tell you. And Billerica is starving for good pizza ! read more

Average big slice pizza place. We ordered pepperoni and margarita. Didn't get a picture of the pepperoni but got one of the margarita. Pizza didn't get heated all the way through. Outside was hot but the inside was cold. This location didn't have any tables to sit at, chairs, or bathrooms. Just stand up bar tables on the wall. Will be checking out another pizza place tonight. read more

This is the kind of pizza that we can only travel to get, being from the Pacific Northwest. We have rubbish for pizza, Boston has authentic pies. Stumbled upon Sal's while heading to Peet's Coffee nearby. I'm sure there is better pizza in New England, but this stuff I'd rate up there close to one hundred percent. The standing dining only just made it seem even more authentic, and the prices as reasonable as it gets. Ate here twice in one day, and even grabbed a cannoli to savor on the way back to the hotel. read more

Great price, great pie, right by the park! Mid-afternoon slice was a little cool but super tasty.

This is my go to pizza place when I'm in the neighborhood because they have a decent variety of toppings, and the service is pretty quick and friendly. When you walk in, you take a look at the pizza options for the day on the glass case, choose a slice (which is basically 1/4 of an entire pie), and they heat it up for you. If you want an entire pie, that takes a little longer. They also have garlic knots and incredible whoopie pies. There are a few counters to stand at in lieu of tables and chairs, and a decent drink selection behind the counter. Overall, a quick and easy pizza place with decent tasting pizza! read more

I waited 20 minutes for a friends order that should've taken 2 minutes. The workers were unfriendly, and not at all in a rush

I have to admit this review is coming from the heart of a hardcore pizza lover. If it's got cheese, sauce, and is on thin crust I am generally a happy camper but Sal's does something wonderful. To be honest, these stars are not for their cheese or their pepperoni pizza. Taste wise, they are pretty mediocre. These five stars are because of size and specialty slices. Each "slice" of Sal's pizza is really two slices of pizza so two slices is four slices and three slices is a food coma. I love their barbecue chicken pizza and any of the margherita-esque slices they display in that glass case of deliciousness. All you have to do when you walk in is stare at the case, make the unbelievably hard choice of which type you want ( they usually have about 6 different pies with anything from 1 - 3 toppings) and then wait for them to slide your individual choices into the oven so it comes out piping hot and gooey. This particular location is not sit down. Just grab and go with a side bar near the window where you and your elbows can hunker down to mow down on a slice or two. The service is always friendly and fast and I love asking the employees which type is their favorite for the day. They are always honest and helpful and not trying to sell you the most expensive slice they have * cough (upper crust) cough*. For slices, Sal's is pretty reasonable prices, not the cheapest by a long shot but around 4-6 dollars depending on your topping amount. A whole pie is really on the pricey side and if your really hungry just order two ( four) slices and you should be fine. I really want to give this Sal's five stars but when it comes down to it, their plain cheese really isn't that grand and that says something about a pizza place. But they still have awesome deliciousness on a crust so, four it is. read more

Good thin crust pizza. I asked for a cheese slice, which is 2 good sized pieces. The crust was very good, fresh tasting, similar to a not salty pretzel dough. It has good mouth feel and isn't too chewy. It is the most noteworthy part of the pizza. The cheese was meh. The sauce for surprisingly bland. I look forward to trying some other Boston Pizza institutions. read more

Honestly the best pizza in Boston (Sorry Santarpio's, it was a close call). Actually maybe anywhere! I first had Sal's in Laconia NH and it blew my mind. Thank heavens they have this location by Boston Common. Anyone looking for a killer slice of pie needs to try Sal's. And not to mention everyone working there was incredibly friendly and had great customer service. Wish I could give them 6 stars. read more

Every time I go to a new city, I try the pizza first. I cannot live without good pizza. Sal's is in a convenient location, and the price is great for what you are given. Two huge slices of pizza for around $5 (Give or take for toppings). I got the buffalo chicken pizza, which wasn't too spicy, and it was nice and tangy. On a nice day, go eat in the Boston Common. It's nice to enjoy the sun and eat your pizza while relaxing on a park bench. People will be asking you where you got the giant slices of pizza. read more

Sal's Pizza - Buffalo Chicken Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Literally the worst pizza I think I've ever had. Looks nothing like the pictures advertised. Very little cheese, tomato sauce tasted like it came from a can and crust did not look or taste wood fired at all. My kids likened it to the pizza you get from Lunchables. The garlic knots had potential but we're so badly burned they were inedible. I don't know how you can mess us pizza this bad! read more

I gave Sal's a 5 for excelling in it's niche. This is not fine dining. This is trendy or cool. This appears to be a family run business that serves THE MOST AWESOME PIZZA in a small store front for a great place. My 17 yo daughter, her friend, and I stopped by on a Sunday evening. Sal's sells slices of many varieties. Each of us chose what we wanted and a cold drink. Cost less than $25. Wow. Go figure. We stood at a counter, ate, and strolled around. If you want GREAT pizza, at the BEST price, and you don't need amenities- go to Sal's. I love this place. read more

just saw a commercial for these guys and wonder where the hell they have been the past 2 years... now trying to reclaim what they had before not toughing it out? The product they served was not that good to begin with anf hopefully can support the nee stare front small business owners and FORGET about Sal.. hes not one of us... read more

Home of the three pound pie! This place serves up huuuuge pizza. Each slice goes for around $5, more if you want more toppings. But each 'slice' is really two, so it's like a BOGO offer! The pizza was average, nothing great. I got the Hawaiian style pizza. They're all in the displace case cold, and they throw it in the over for a few minutes to get it to piping hot. (A bit too hot for some!) The crust is thin, and won't hold up under the weight of the pizza, but I guess that's a east coast thing, huh? The restaurant isn't especially clean, and there are no places to sit. There's some counters to lean on. They're lacking on the hot sauce area, and had some dry Parmesian that looked like a Kraft knockoff. It's not gourmet stuff, but it's filling and cheap. The service was friendly, and the guy behind the counter seemed happy to be there. The location is stellar! Right on Boston Common! It's a great place to go after checking out the Freedom Trail, or heading out from the subway, since it's right by a stop... read more

Still very good. Sweet Chili Chicken seems to be the only slice I get here. 1 slice is approx 1.5 slices at most places-the Sweet Chili Chicken comes in at just under $6 though. A few bucks more you can get a plain cheese. I'm sure with toppings though, they get you for $20+. Still love this place for pre or post movie slices. read more

What a nice surprise for sure. Flavorful menu items and outstanding service. Every single thing that we ordered was extremely fresh and flavorful. The workers is certainly a highlight of this place because they are always quick, courteous, and provide service with a smile! Would totally come back again to Sal's Pizza. read more

Huge slices of gourmet pizza. Super nice stafff. Wait time is short during the busy lunch rush hour.

Sal's Pizza you are really incredible, I had a wonderful experience here today. The ambience of this place is outstanding and so welcoming! Every single thing was fresh, healthy, and extremely delicious. And also, the service was terrific and the staff was super courteous. I'd definitely return. read more

Really good pizza by the slice. Good variety of flavors too. Staff was friendly as well. Nice place for a late night snack!! Would be nice to have a few stools to sit on though. read more

While I was living nearby on Winter Street I ate here several times. The pizza is good, what you would expect for something just off the sidewalk. The crust is big huge and amazing and definitely my favorite part. The middle of the pizza was also good, but for some reason the very center was always runny, and this was consistent on at least four pizzas I ordered here. I don't know if it is a cheese issue or cooking temperature or time issue, but I hope they can figure out how to cook all of their pizza. The staff is always very friendly and courteous and the cannoli for dessert wasn't bad either! read more

I somehow recently had some cravings for pizza and I want to buy just some slices instead of an entire one. This place served my need perfectly. I am not an expert pizza eater, but am just looking for some not-too-greasy pizza. I would say I love the taste of the pizza here. The only reason I took one star off this place is that there is no seat there - not a big problem if most of its customers just order food in delivery, but just just a bit inconvenient for my situation. read more

Sal's started screwing me over when I was in 2nd grade, and they had some scary contract with my school to be their primary pizza supplier. I'm not sure if our superintendent's body was ever recovered, but whatevz... We were forced to eat it and it was always cold!! That was probably the school's fault, but I still get the chills when I see Sal on the Phantom Gourmet (every week). :( The 1 benefit of going to the actual pizza shop was that you'd get a 1/4 of a pizza as a slice. When my friend and I were chasing Lady Gaga on our lunch break, we stopped in the new Tremont St shop to check it out... I ended up getting a huge slice that was OK... whatevz, but my friend ended up getting a 1/2 a slice for $3.49 + tax, so I was all like: "Hey, WTF!?!?!" and they had no idea what I was talking about. They said something like "a slice is a slice" but I clearly got a 1/4 of a pizza that was cut in 1/2 which was literally *2* slices... It didn't make any sense, and I'm never allowed to pick the lunch spot again! Thnx, Sal's! Also, it wasn't very busy in there, but it took way too long to get the slices... I think they were reheating everything in the oven. I can't imagine the wait during a real "rush" ... :( Viga also serves huge slices that basically taste the same (or better, if they have their shit together!), cost less and take less time obtain. JUST SAYIN'! Your business model works in NH, but not Boston! I'M OUTTA HERE! read more
