First time eating here and the food is great. Will recommend to anybody.
Pizza is wonderful thin crust, the sauce tastes great, the crust is great, the Italian sausage really pops especially on the pizza but their ingredients are all fresh you cant go wrong. The burritos are the best in the area. they're filling and the steak is cut nice the texture and flavor is wonderful. The red and green salsa they make is also so flavorful its become my go to place for everything. Parking lot is small, but theres a funeral home just a few steps south of the resturaunt you can also park at. Sals offers a wide variety of food, and it is all awesome. Highly recommend this hidden gem on the south side
Hi I moved here 5 years ago and sals pizza has been the best place I have ever been to when it comes amazing food- amazing people and most of all they are honest people. Today I cried for hours looking for a gold ring that belong to my grandma. I remembered I went to sals pizza yesterday. When I called them to question if they found a ring.. they asked me to describe it by every detail. It turned out to be the gold ring! They are so honest and kind and protective about lost belongings. Me and family just love this place so much. Please recommend people here because this place is worth every penny and the people there are just so sweet and caring. The food- well it’s made by Mexicans so you know it fire!!!!! I wish them the best in this world. Thank you sals pizza and to the man and young lady I spoke to. You guys hold a good place in my heart for all that you are.
Very good taco dinner for a great price! The pizza had a lot of sausage. It was good too! I like supporting a small business over a large corporation. We've ordered from them twice and will be coming back.
Decent place to eat. Not a lot of room inside but it wasn’t cramped. Food was pretty good, I really enjoyed the pizza and it came out pretty quickly. The service was great.

Really good pizza. Thin crust, good sausage. Plenty of cheese, but not too much. They were happy to deliver to the bar next door.
