This neat little Italian spot is located in the heart of Plainfield. They have a decent-sized parking lot and dining area. It has a cozy feel to it. The staff there is friendly enough, but I will admit that I only had limited interaction with them. They serve all of your favorite Italian dishes including pizza (stuffed and regular), calzones, lasagna, spagahitti, chicken dishes, veal dishes, breadsticks, soups and salads. I ordered a Caesar salad and an All-Meat Calzone. My food was prepared very fast. It was ready in less than 8 minutes and fresh and hot. The salad was strong, and luckily, that is how I like it. It was very flavorful and tasty. The calzone was really good, too. The cheese was oozing out. They have a happy hour from 3 to 5 every weekday, where patrons get a percentage off their total check. I was about an hour too early for that, though. All in all, I really enjoyed my meal here. It was delicious. It was very close to a five-star experience. I wish that I could give it a 4.5, but something was just missing. Either way, this is definitely a place that I recommend and hope to make it back here soon. read more

Was tricked by deep dish on the menu. What was delivered was a large square. With a thick crust that was rock hard, nearly inedible. Don't order deep dish from this place..it is NOT deep dish. Closer to normal Sicilian but omg..the several day old bread for a crust..huge waste of money very disappointing read more

I wanted to love this experience so much more than I did. For our anniversary we wanted to choose something a little fancier, but not over the top. I reviewed the menu beforehand and even checked out their social media ahead of time. Oh wow, specialty lemonades? How unique and fun! Tiramisu for dessert? Yes please! I was excited to go. The pizza was OUTSTANDING. We ordered the Rocio's Special pizza (white sauce with shrimp, green peppers, onions, jalapeños and bacon) and we were floored. Probably the best pizza I've ever had! But sadly we couldn't get over the quality of the service. Our waiter needed some serious training. I didn't see a bar menu for specialty drinks, we didn't get soda refills, and dessert was never offered. We were planning to really go all out to celebrate, but felt very rushed. We just ended up getting sodas and pizza. In addition, some updates are needed to the overall atmosphere and logistics of the restaurant. While nice music was playing, all I could hear was the ticket machine printing on receipt paper from the kitchen. Then a large group came in and swore they had a reservation when they didn't. The hostess pulled out a binder with reservations written down. What restaurant these days doesn't have some time of digital reservations that you can check on? Lastly, it is mid-July but there were flies present in the dining area Not sure I would dine in again, but if I lived closer I would definitely get takeout! read more

We have visited Sal's Plainfield several times now and it is one of our favorite places to dine in. This restaurant is located in US 40 in Plainfield and has both indoor and outdoor seating. Their menu options are varied and provide a lot of vegetarian options. Their dishes taste delicious!!! Their customer service is consistently amazing. They are family friendly and business casual. They do dine in and carry out as well. They have a decent parking space behind the restaurant and some on the sides. There is also one other Sal's in Brownsburg IN however, Sal's Plainfield in my mind is so much better. read more

Moved away from the area a few years ago and recently moved back. We came for dinner for the first time since moving and it's just as good as before we moved. Great food; accommodating, attentive, and friendly service; pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. We love Sal's! read more

I've eaten at the Mooresville restaurant four times three of which were very good this last and fourth time was absolutely awful. We ordered the Sicilian deep dish . The onions were raw and we had a nice onion heel in the middle of the pizza. Raw mushrooms are fine in a salad they're horrible on a pizza. The crust was burnt on one side and Raw on the other. The waitress needs to consider a career where she does not have to interact with people . If you decide to ignore this review then godspeed and good luck. read more

This restaurant is fine, and I would give it 3.75 stars if Yelp would indulge me in such a score. The food is Indiana red-sauce pasta and pizza -- it checks that Italian box. Apparently, there are a few Sal's Famous Pizzerias on the west side of Indianapolis. Sal gets around over here. This one in Plainfield has a large dining room, with tables and booth seating. The service was excellent, from start to finish. We started with the bread sticks and garlic rolls. The garlic rolls look very pretty, but I liked the simple taste of the plain breadsticks. They are served with marinara sauce. I got a Caesar salad, which was just slightly over dressed, and the parmesan looked like it was the kind you shake out of a can. You (and by you, I mean I) need freshly grated parmesan on a Caesar! No exceptions. Needless to say, it wasn't my favorite of the meal. My main was a vegetarian calzone, which was stuffed with ricotta, mozzarella and vegetables. It was fine, but the dough was just a tad too sweet and fluffy -- it tasted more like a dough for a pastry and not a savory calzone, if that makes sense. My children got slices of pizza, which they really enjoyed. If you visit for lunch, you can get pizza by the slice here, which is nice. We finished with cannoli, filled with sweet ricotta cream and chocolate chips. The cannoli were really good, and even though I don't typically enjoy cannoli, I ate the whole thing! Like I said, Sal's is a perfectly fine Indiana Italian restaurant that will satisfy a big group. There are lots of different things to order, and the menu is very familiar. read more

My daughter wanted pasta for a pre-birthday dinner and she decided on Sal's. She had the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken which she thought was pretty good, though chicken was shredded which seemed unusual in this dish to me. I had the Pizziaolla (similar to chicken parmigiana but not breaded). It was really good, with tender, and thin chicken breasts. The dish had a light red sauce with tomatoes and mushrooms, and a bed of spaghetti. My wife had chicken parmigiana which I didn't try, but she remarked it was not warm at all, and from my seat it didn't look great. They were pretty busy, and food took a bit. Wait staff was attentive. Overall, food was good but not great on this visit. Apologies, I ate part of the dish before I took the picture. read more

After the grand reopening of Sals in Brownsburg my family and Decided to give it a shot. Who doesn't like a nice Italian meal. The great comfort food, pasta and bread! Well for starters we went early and had pretty much the whole place to sit anywhere but the maitre D' sat us right up front at the checkout with the music blaring from a speaker directly in front of us. No worries we ignored it and were happy to be there even though the table selection was odd. The staff was obviously high schoolers except for one waitress and a few of the kitchen helpers we had a great view of from our front row seat. The waitress we received was obviously very young and seemed to be overly engaged with the young girl behind the check out counter who never moved from her spot the entire dining service. We sat and waited for quite a while before our waitress came back to take our order. We decided to get a couple of appetizers even though Sals provided complimentary bread and a sun dried tomato dipping oil. We ordered the Combo appetizer and garlic rolls. While waiting on our appetizers for quite some time and while watching the girls all stand behind the take out counter ( right in the line of sight of our table) and chit chat, we finally get our appetizers dropped off. She did ask if we were ready for our order and we ordered pesto linguini, fettuccine Alfredo, and spaghetti with sausage. While eating the appetizer I noticed the calamari tasted very dry and freezer burnt. The calamari rings were definitely not fresh and definitely not overcooked, Just dry and off putting. The mozzarella sticks were the same freezer burnt and had no cheese pull from being cool. Probably from sitting on the counter waiting for all the girls to quit talking. The garlic rolls were good as usual and has always been one of the bright spots for Sal's. After sitting for quite some time still with no straws and never being checked on once, our food arrived and looked decent. First thing I noticed is my spaghetti had no sausage and simply had smashed up meatballs mixed into the pasta. The taste was ok but the smashed up meatballs tasted like the bagged frozen meatballs from Kroger. The pesto linguini was good and so was the fettuccini Alfredo. During the course of our meal and being out of water and never being checked on once to see if our food was right or tasted ok, we watched the high school kids be high school kids, 4 of them at a time behind the counter laughing and chatting, for very long times. The bus boy standing behind the bar with the drink nozzle in one hand while putting small amounts in a glass and drinking them while holding his cell phone and eating was off-putting. It was obvious there was no manger on duty. When the waitress came back I asked if there was a manager. She stated "I think so" I had to ask her can I speak with them please and she said " I don't think he's available" I had to ask to speak to whoever is in charge and she said "he's in the office I think" I asked for his name and she said " I think it's Nathan" she didn't even know who the manager was! I had to ask her to get the manager so I could talk to them and she was very hesitant. I'm laid back and casual so It's cool if it's me but others may not be so kind. If there was a contact us page or if I would have actually spoke to the manager that would have been my preferred way to bring attention to what kind of experience we had. Finally a young lady from the kitchen named Iris came out and said she was the manager. From the food on her apron and from her not looking like a Nathan I had my doubts she was a manager. I explained to her what we witnessed and how we had no table service, drink refills or checked in on for food taste or quality and she apologized. She also said she was next in charge when I questioned why Nathan didn't come out to speak to us and she stated there was no manager on duty but she was next in charge. She didn't seem to want to be talking to me and definitely had no desire to try and understand the concerns I was sharing. While this was taking place our waitress was no where to be found and then all the girls and bus boy came out of the kitchen back behind the bar and all were looking our way. Still as we sat there with empty glasses and almost 2 hours into our visit we could tell it was pointless to try and help any more. Sals has been a staple in Brownsburg for many years and I'm sure this is not typical, at least I hope not. Please don't take my experience this trip as a reason not to give them a try. They did just recently reopen and they are still asking for help. I hope they get it together and can learn from my discussion with Iris but I'm not so convinced. I didn't take any pictures even though I had plenty of time to do so and I apologize. I also left the young lady a 20% tip, only because she is a high schooler and maybe kindness can be received and my words can hopefully give her insight. read more

The food here is INCREDIBLE. I have never gotten something here that I did not enjoy. My family from out of town always request to come here. It is so so good. The one thing that we have noticed every time we dine in is it usually does take a while. We have done both takeout and dine in and if we are in more of a rush we will do takeout! Highly recommend!! My favorite thing to get here is meat ravioli! I also love their pizza. read more

We have eaten there a few times and the food was OK. Not special. However, my son took his girlfriend there 2 nights ago to celebrate her birthday and was extremely disappointed. Said the hostess was very rude and the waiter was not good. We will not recommend and will not be back. (Noticed negative comments about the service in other reviews.) read more

Celebrated a late birthday here on a rainy Wednesday eve. I was pleasantly surprised to see there were many occupied tables when we arrived! We intended to dine outside in the wine garden area, but obviously Mother Nature had different plans! We were seated quickly in the dining room which is cozy in an Italian family sort of way. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. Our salads arrived quickly; one exception was an appetizer mussel special which took a few minutes longer but was presented beautifully when it arrived. All were fresh and flavorful, as well. We chose calzones and a spinach roll as our entrées. These were quite large and none of us could finished the whole order so we had leftovers for the next day. We then paid via Apple pay and went on our way. I'm a sucker for a locally owned restaurant and Sal's has yet to disappoint us! read more

Sal's Famous Pizzeria - Love their pizza. - Pizza Near Me - Plainfield, Indiana

Sals is a local favorite of our whole family for weekend dinners together. We always are treated like family, especially our little Charlie who the owner always comes over to personally say hi to. They've done some recent renovations to their patio and main dining room that add an extra charm. They have great classic Italian food and wood-fired pizzas. It's a cozy, classy, welcoming and clean restaurant with great service and wonderful menu great for any occasion. Today they're hosting a Christmas lunch event with Santa waving to passersby and visiting with the kids that come to see him. Inside the festivities continued with beautiful Christmas decorations, trays of chewy delicious cookies, other treats, and hot coco. We love coming here anytime but today was a special treat! It was a lot of fun! Thanks Sals! read more

Hubby and I dropped in on a week night. Started off with red sangria and tosted ravioli for an appetizer. Broccoli Roll and chicken Caesar salad for mains. Everything was delicious. Fresh ingredients and can't say enough about that Caesar dressing. Perfection. Cannot wait to go back read more

This was my first time trying Sal's and I was very impressed. I stopped in during dinner time on a Friday night and was in-and-out with a carry out order right on my order time. You'd think you were watching an episode of The Bear with how much movement I saw from the staff! Go y'all! The pizza matched that of a high-quality wood-fired pizza (which it is) and would surely get a good rating by Dave Portnoy. Additionally, the space was really nice. I managed to capture a photo of the outside before I left. The space is lovely and lives up to an authentic Italian restaurant. It's not too busy and perfect for an Italian night in or out. A firm five stars for the experience and pizza. A more critical review would be surrounding the appetizers (I got a sampler). I wasn't overly impressed with the quality. It tasted and presented like something I'd pickup from any other pizza shop. I would love to see some differentiation on that front. In addition, prices are competitive for what'd you pay for this quality. Overall, great experience. Better pizza. Brilliant decor (the outside is deceiving). I'd recommend to anyone to check it out. read more

Went for lunch. There were no prices so I asked for pricing and specials. The guy answered and we ordered. The payment machine auto added 20% gratuity. We then got our own drinks and sat at the one clean booth. Few minutes later a lady yells out our order and we had to get our own food. So why did I pay a gratuity? The food was edible. Pizza was cold and crust was chewy. The slice did have a nice coverage of toppings. Baked ziti was decent, but the "salad" was lettuce with cheese and a bad dressing. Definitely don't recommend especially for $40 for 2 people for lunch. read more

I've driven past this fun spot a few times and decided for my birthday to try it! We made reservations but as it was a week night in February it wasn't busy. We were seated promptly and given our choice of socially distanced options. I like the classic and bright decor, and immediately admired the wood oven. While waiting fir our party we perused the menu and there are options for every taste. The waitress was attentive but not overly but took good care of our table. Once we got settled we ordered appetizers and enjoyed the complimentary fresh bread with an herb infused olive oil dip. It was delicious! Our appetizers were large and I have to admit next time I might just order the garlic knots as my main course! It had 4 large sized buttery concoctions (think savory cinnamon roll) that were piping hot and melting with ooey gooey cheese inside. The appetizer comes with sauce so I suggest the marinara, perfection! The second appetizer was breaded eggplant which was just so-so. It had somewhat good flavor but was too fried and rather greasy and heavy. The sauce on it was what made it edible in my opinion, so I'd skip that next time. The main courses chosen were various ravioli, pizza and a creamy pasta. I had the spinach ravioli which was perfectly al Debye, rich flavor and textures between the spinach and cheese and marinara. Yum! I split that with my husband so as to try his pizza. I loved the crust and could taste the wood fired aspect. Our choice was a bit flat and lacked a kick to it, but was done well. We probably just need to choose another pizza or different toppings. It was good but I'd try another pizza option next time. All in all everyone loved their food and given the cost the portions were generous and filling. You get a soup or salad with an entree so we did not go away unsatisfied. We will definitely go back and enjoyed the homey feeling and tasty food. It is a fun spot for some good Italian in Plainfield. read more

I recommend that you don't yell or hang up on customers. The lady was fast and rude on the phone.

This is a good 2nd location of Sal's. The inside is much nicer than it looks from the outside. There is also a really cool outdoor patio. My ravioli were good, but the portion was pretty small for the price. read more

Great Pizza and pasta!!! Staff was very friendly and attentive from the moment we sat down. We got to sit outside as we were all over 21, they brought our drinks quickly and bread w/ oil to start . The bread was bland compared to others but the oil was good. Next we ordered the stuff breadsticks and garlic knots. Both were piping hot and delicious! We ordered a caprese pizza, big enough for 3, woodfired and superb! The pasta was a carbonara fettuccini, LOVED it!!! The staff was very friendly and I will definitely be back!!! read more

Dinner here tonight with friends. We got the Meat pizza, pepperoni, bacon, ham, sausage. It was really good I like the NY style thin crust. We were asked if we wanted it done in the brick oven? I didn't realize there was an option. I didn't see another pizza oven. And why is this an option? One friend got a calzone. She wasn't really impressed. It had too much ricotta and not enough ham. She ended up digging out most of the ricotta. Other friend got a salad with salmon. She said the fish was really good. If we get pizza again I think we would do the smaller option. 16" was way too big. The deep fried stuffed bread was delicious. read more

This was a fun, spontaneous fourth date idea ! We ordered these "cinnamon roll" garlic knots. No - they do not contain cinnamon. They were filled with cheeses goodness ! Though, the cheese that was provided did not work as well with it as it could have. I brought my second one home to have for later. My entree was the cheese ravioli ! I'm not a huge fan of meat. And when I'm eating Italian, I always go for whatever is cheese stuffed. Typically that ends up being cheese ravioli ! This was particularly delicious. My raviolis were super stuffed ! My date tried one and said it was even better than his seafood ravioli. Definitely recommend ! read more

Cute little Italian restaurant! The inside is quaint and has a wood burning stove they cook amazing pizzas in. You can literally watch them make your pizza and put it into the wood burning open oven! The outdoor patio has an Italian-esq courtyard experience with romantic music, string lights, candles and Roman garden sculptures. The garlic rolls are so yummy and my favorite dish is the cappellini al pomodoro with fresh ingredients full of flavor. I want to try more options but I can't not get this. It's the only place I have found that makes it this good. The complementary bread and oil is amazing! Tip: ask for extra dipping oil. It's a small restaurant and during peak hours it's very busy so patience is key. Sometimes the service is not 100% during the busiest times but the servers are trying their best- we've had to flag them down a few times to get help but we are always sat quickly! read more

Food is always amazing, but the service is often lacking. Went for lunch today with my wife, and it took 30 minutes for us to get a salad and a pasta dish with only two other tables occupied. I'm guessing they were more focused on takeout orders as several were picked up. Guess that's more important than the people that actually come in to support the business. If you have the time, maybe stop in for dinner, but I'll definitely avoid going at lunchtime for the foreseeable future. read more

First off, I am SHOCKED!!! The Plainfield location of Sals deserves a 10/10 rating. Absolute best Italian restaurant me and my fiancé have been too! We go into Sals at least once a month! Absolute best food you ever tasted in your life. I read a review that said a person got ravioli and the portion was small???? The portion size is perfect. I get that order all the time. Plus you fill up on bread and the salad. We have never had an issue with service ever. Everyone that works there is nice and polite. It is a perfect place for whatever the occasion is! The inside is romantic with photos everywhere of Sal and his wife. We truly wish we could have Sals cater our wedding, but we are getting married out of state Also, take out is amazing. You can't go wrong. Anyone who gives this place less than a 5 star rating is absolutely insane. read more

Went here on the recommendation of a coworker. Luckily I was able to take my wife on a Saturday and Sal's didn't disappoint! I got the Lasagna and it took a while even though the place was not very Busy. My wife commented that they must be making our lasagna individually as a joke. When they came out I'm pretty sure they were made individually after we ordered. Mine was excellent and I finished every bite. It came with garlic toast which was nice. Our waiter was friendly, prompt and gave great service. My only complaint that a salad did not come with it and would have been $5 more. For authentic Italian cuisine I would highly recommend Sal's read more

Ordered carry out on the phone and was told salad does not come with the meal any longer , that,s bad and then order two sweet teas with the dinner . When I got there they had no tea and they forgot our garlic bread , she already sacked my meals so I waited for the garlic bread with my meal on the counter and not under the warmer . I live three minutes away and when I got home with no salad and no tea my our meals were luke warm . Regular customer for years but if you are cutting corners that much after raising prices and that kind of lack luster service I am done with them for good . read more

It was freezing in the restaurant today, so cold we ate our lunch with our winter coats on. We both ordered salads, which typically come with the dressing on the side; however, today, they were drowned in dressing to hide the fact that there wasn't ANY feta cheese on the salads. I asked our waitress if they were out of feta, she said no but we're supposed to use it sparingly; I'm sorry, but if it's listed as an ingredient in a salad, I want it in my salad, not used to decorate the plate! I also ordered the chicken stromboli, what a waste! There was absolutely no seasoning on the chicken, mushrooms, or any element of the stromboli whatsoever. I will not make the mistake of coming back read more
