I came to this place just because I wanted to try a different spot that wasn't Joe and John's hoping that it would be less expensive but for one regular slice and one barbecue slice it cost $8.25 also, they either take cash or Zelle or Venmo, which is inconvenient since I had my card and it took about 10 minutes to finally get my food when there was nobody else in the shop So I won't be coming back definitely do not recommend read more

So I order there today the pizza is very soggy, crust is not crispy, the sauce was bland, the owner thinks it's quality pizza when it's worse then any dollar slice but he charges $3+ for a slice. He wears a dirty shirt that looks like it has NOT been washed since pre Covid and it would be ok but then he is also very rude and argumentative. Will not eat from here again. Unless you like bad experiences and bad soggy pizza that bland avoid this place read more

The Original Sal's may not be the best NY pizza you will find in Ridgewood, but it is not a pizza to be discounted either! A small pizzeria that has a great crust, quality meats, and a nice sauce makes for a good NY pie. Sal's also has a great knish for those who have an appreciation for it! read more

The Original Sal's Pizza - the outside of the restaurant - Pizza Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

Been in and out of here for the last 28 years I have been in the neighborhood, always jumping in for a slice when walking down Myrtle Ave. - never had a bad slice - unsure they offer delivery (last time I asked years ago it was no) but this is great place to get good slice, tasty, perfectly cooked- crispy but chewy, tasty sauce, lots of cheese. Need a quick bite good place to get a slice if near by. read more

United Xtreme Martial Arts has been a customer of The Original Sal's Pizza for several years. Today we purchased 7 large pies and when a parent went to ask for plates, the owner said, we should go to the 99 cents store and buy plates. Then a senior staff member goes to the pizzeria and tries to speak with the owner, the owner tells him to get the FUXK out of here, after the senior staff asked for paper plates since we purchased 7 large pies. read more

So this is the authentic New York Slice I have been looking for all my life? Heard so much about you. Nice to finally meet you. Large, fresh, good and cheesy are the adjectives used to describe this piece of pie. I have eaten pizza all of my life and have tried NY Style pizzas from many cities. I thought papa johns was good pizza. LOL! Sorry, that was funny. This one slice had me wanting more and more. It was great! I added sausage to my slice. It was a sausage link thinly sliced. My only regret is that I only got one slice and never made it back before leaving town. The garlic knots are way too garlicy though. Relax with the shaker. I'm walking over here (use your ny accent). They are a popular option though. A cop came in and purchased a couple of bags. The Original Sal's. Reminds me of Spike Lee's "Doing the Right Thing" movie. Now that's good pizza. read more

I came here with my boyfriend because we were in the area and the Yelp reviews were mostly positive. The atmosphere is a simple, old school pizzeria, with yellow benches and wood tables. Reminded me of my childhood. We approached the display case and were quickly disappointed by the pizza. Aside from a fresh Sicilian pie, there were scattered pieces of specialty pizzas, all extremely dated and stale in appearance. There were no two slices alike, and it looked like the pizza had been refrigerated and put out for days, over and over again. There was a display case below the pizza that had chicken rolls, calzones, etc. Since the pizza looked so awful, we decided to split a calzone and a chicken roll. At that point, the woman behind the counter pulled the items from the display case and, instead of putting the items in the nice oven behind her, she nuked them! When the food was ready, we sat down to eat. The calzone was about half the size of what you'd expect to find in another restaurant. It was thin, had hardly any cheese inside, was bland, save for some salt, and was essentially a notch above a hot pocket. In addition, the crust was chewy and tough because of the microwave treatment. The chicken roll, to be fair, was a bit better, more average than anything. We left hungry and disappointed. Needless to say, we won't be returning. read more

Recently had a gyro of my own. It was loaded with so much toms, lettuce and sauce (which tasted kinda like mayo). This was easily a meal for two people. Jeebus. There are never a lot of people in here when I happen to be around, which can be kind of a bad omen? But the food here has been on point so far! No complaints...except for the mayo? read more

Wow, The Original Sal's Pizza was truly phenomenal. It's amazing and everyone who works here seems like they are really proud of it. Pretty much every menu item that we have purchased was incredibly fresh and yummy. The team is super helpful too. I 'd like to try The Original Sal's Pizza again. read more

Ordered a Sicilian Pizza. Got a flat, uncooked and tasteless pie with no sauce. All we could taste was the uncooked yeast. Never again for this trash establishment. read more

I'm picky when it comes to Pizza because I've had really good pizza in the past. I will say, as soon as you walk past the door of this pizzeria you can smell the deliciousness. I brought my 5 year old nephew and we both had a slice. I have been here before and have had the cannolis, calzones, salads and pizza. Everything is tasty. The man behind the counter heated up my pizza just the way I wanted it. I will continue to come back to this place. read more

DISGUSTING! STAY AWAY! COVID-19 VIOLATIONS! If you value your health, DO NOT COME HERE! My mom and I walked in yesterday afternoon excited that the patio is open! But was alarmed when the older gentleman behind the counter handling the food was NOT WEARING A MASK. So I asked is mask wearing not required and he said "no I am fine behind all this plastic covering me" so I say, you could be asymptomatic and your droppings could be contaminating the food. So he asked me what do I want to eat and I politely said no thank you have a nice day and proceeded to walking out. The man then decided to verbally assault me calling me a fuc**** b****. I said "excuse me? I heard you" to which he responded "have a nice day." An older woman stepped out from the counter in his defense and started cursing at me AND MY MOTHER so we all ended up arguing. We left and the older women later stepped out to continue arguing with me as I was standing away from the establishment finding a new place to eat. Maybe if you followed pandemic protocol you would not have lost a customer in a time where our money is needed to keep your business running. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE & CLEANLINESS! I love Corato's pizza up the block, I should've went their instead and saved myself all the trouble. read more

The best original italian pizza around! All their cooking is great and the family environment makes it all worthwhile!

I came back following Joseph K's taunting insistence. There's still too much cheese on here for my tastes. It's an edible, hot slice but I still like other spots more. The upside-down was better. read more

Best pizzeria in the neighborhood by far !! My boyfriend and I come in all the time and just love the upside Sicilian pie and pepperoni bites are to die for !!!!! Staff is super sweet and the place is really cute old school vibe that reminds me of my childhood days ! If you're looking for a great neighborhood family pizzeria this is ur place by far ! read more

I've been going here for year. This is a family owned business. Very clean and quaint location always quick to please. I'm 52 year old male and still take my wife here for date night. It's not too bright or to dark to see the person your with.You can acutely have a conversation without having to raise you voice due to loud music like other locations. The food is GREAT AND FRESH. Try it out you'll like it and you will end up going there for years. read more

Don't listen to some creepy, rapey-looking hipster that probably poo-poos on everything. I've been going to Original Sal's for 20+ years now (minus 7 from moving out of NYC, then moving back). Lived across the street from it, and now live around the corner from it, and if I had to think of a good reason why, it's Sal's. Everything I've had from them is top-notch, from great standard pies, sicilians and upside-down sicilians to things like chicken rolls, mozzarella cheese steaks and chicken marsala slices. I've watched the kid grow up in there while his parents never seemed to age, and have enjoyed every experience. They don't deliver for the most part (which is why someone probably reported that they were rude on the phone, because they probably asked them one too many times), but for good food like this, get off your butt and get it anyway. Rosa's is good, but it's good for specialty pies. Sal's is all you need when you're in Ridgewood. read more

The place is minutes from my home and the smell alone was enough for me to walk in and try a slice. Their pizza is on point and I'm loving the old school seating they got in there. The whole place screams old school, down to the Italian owners and washed out colored walls, but I love it so. We usually order a whole pizza from here and it's pretty good. Sauce is flavorful, bread isn't too grainy or chewy and the prices are just right. I've tried the food (shrimp parm) and it wasn't the greatest. Shrimp were on the small side and the flavor didn't match up to other places. On the plus side they do deliver and it's always quick! read more

Every one in NYC has a favorite pizza place, Sal's is mine. Awesome pizza, great sides (I'm a fan of the pepperoni and spinach wheels). It's a small family run place, and they remember me even though I'm only in every couple of months because I moved out of state. There's easily 5 pizza joints within two blocks of my mom's house, and I'll choose this one every time. read more

Ordered delivery, I live not even 3 minutes away and my food took OVER an hour to come, happened TWICE. Not to mention the order was very small. Makes no sense. Never again. read more

Man. This pizza is the TRUTH! At first I thought my taste buds were fooling me due to my current state of starvation, but after devouring the cheese slice in record timing..I was sold!!! I can't even begin to describe what makes this pizza so delicious. The cheese is perfect, the garlic, the tomato sauce... It's everything!!! I'm just curious if this is really the "original" Sal's or is that some misleading marketing scheme?? Either way, I'm sold! I wish they delivered to my apartment! read more

Excellent slice. Yummy the best in the area. Um um good. Been here several times and always on point.

Best pizza in the World. Everthing about it, taking all things into consideration. Just regular NYC pizza the way it should be. From its decor, service and food. Provides the necessities perfectly. read more

Decent pizza place. Pretty good stuff, nothing special, but definitely will fill you up.

Always amazing pizza. So good and fresh. This is the best and cleanest pizzeria in the area. It's one of my top pizzas in nyc.

Yeah this is the best pizza in the area, very old school classic place, a time warp, very old school seating but very comfortable, also got a restroom for customers. I thought this place would be small but its a fairly decent sized for a pizza shop in this area. Great regular slices and also squares. read more

Pizza is good. My favorite is the chicken slice. Calzones and chicken rolls are also very tasty. Clean place. Been a customer here for years. I would recommend to all. read more

Excellent. Best slice I've had in a very long time. Made with love, I highly recommend!

Upside down sicilian, by the pie!!!!! out of this world!!!. every pizzaria has its slow times and busy times, if your the type that likes it hot out the oven order by the pie best pizza in queens. L & B spumoni gardens in brooklyn has nothing on sal's upside down sicilian pie. its a must to order ask for extra sauce,welldone and to top it off do half peperoni. My girlfriend doesnt eat it but it adds extra flavor to the pie and I love it. read more

The second i bit the pizza, the crunch, the taste, was paradigm shifting for my notion of what food can ever aspire to be. Life changing. will be back every year to NY just for this pizza. Thank you Sal's. I really appreciate it. read more

I love this pizza place. Its one of those old-fashioned, family run, neighborhood places that makes really good pizza. Both regular & Sicilian are excellent. Their pinwheels & rolls are very good as well. But I love to go in & sit in the roomy benches that they still have that many have done away with. Great place! read more

Classic NY style slice. Bought a large regular pie and it was so good! And reasonably priced at $14.00. Will be back for the classic regular slice! read more

I came in for a slice, and walked out with a pie, amazing pizza, great service, and very clean!!!!!! coming back real soon!

Grew up in the area, and used to come here all the time. If I am in the area and craving pizza, I will suggest Sal's Pizza. Love the eggplant rolls. The upside down Sicilians are great. Food overall is great. Prices are pretty reasonable as well. read more

I've been eating this pizza for 20+ years and it is honestly the best in the neighborhood. I've tried all the Ridgewood pizza places and this one is truly #1. Their pizza recipe has been the same since I was a kid and the family who own's the place is super friendly. They'll treat you with the best intentions and make the slice exactly the way you want it. read more

00000000000....no stars review....Our family has been a loyal customer to sals pizza since 2005...on my birthday 08/22 of 2011 that changed....we ordered several items for our party which included a specialty pizza "chicken marsala" ... much to our dismay the pizza was horrible....old funky chicken... and sals would not offer ANY type of resolution and was rather rude in their verbal corrospondance...save your money and choose a more reputable establishment... sincerely ....frank @ 69 ave in ridgewood read more
