Cheeseburger

Wow ! What a gem this place is!! We have driven by this place numerous times. I'm not much of a diner person so it really wasn't a consideration for myself however was hungry and it was the non-fast food place we saw we pulled into the parking lot to check out the menu. The menu was your basics, bacon, egg and cheese, pancakes, hamburgers, and specialty sandwiches. We figured that a hamburger here would probably be better than anything else we would get in the area when we walked in. We were immediately graded by the owner Josie, who is an absolute love she asked if we had ever been here before to which we replied no, and she explained that the restaurant was set up as a cafeteria .You can pick your food from the stations and then it would be delivered to your table if you chose to eat in. The salads were beautiful with seasonal fruit and all fresh greens . Hubby selected the cheeseburger medium rare and I was daring enough to try the spicy cheesesteak. Burger was cooked to perfection and the meat was lean enough to not be greasy yet enough fat to be juicy. It was a little odd that they do not make fries but the saucy lady chips that were offered are the best kettle chips I have ever had. My cheesesteak was phenomenal! Real steak , no gristle very tender . Roll was fresh and there was no drippy grease even with cheese and sriracha mayo. The cheesesteak was large enough for one half to fill me up without feeling bogged down. Josie and her staff with very welcoming, checking in on our food and providing delightful banter.Even though I like heat , I think I would skip or reduce the jalapeños next time unless I try their porchetta sandwich. Don't let the industrial vibe surrounding Sal's lead you to believe this is your average greasy spoon. The inside was bright , modern and immaculate . Josie is a darling hostess that beams with pride in her establishment. This is a place where people love what they do and it is evident !!! We will definitely stop in again !!

Sal's is tucked away in an industrial park several blocks from Teterboro Airport. It is of notable mention, that this place is owned by the legendary Rudy's Inflight Catering. If you have ever flown on a $50 million dollar Gulfstream jet from Teterboro , good chance that you have eaten food from Rudy's. Perhaps , because I know this , the bar might have been set a little too high. The place is only open for breakfast and lunch. It does offer catering 24 hours a day . But I was made aware that the after hours catering comes from Rudy's . (Which probably is a good thing!) So being in the location in which it is , the place looks like a modern fortress . No windows and all the glass doors have the shatterproof reinforced steel . Bad news for any thief or mischief maker and bad news if you happen to fall asleep at a table and get locked inside overnight . Inside is a very modern cafeteria decor , including trays and tray rails along buffet line. But stuff is made to order, along with buffet style creations . There is a pleasant lady, who is very nice and seems to be on top of all the goings on. I had the basics and it was just okay. The buffet food looked good. When I walked in, I did notice the place had a smell that reminded me of the smell in the Amtrak Cafe car. Not a bad smell , but a weird smell . The only other turnoff was that my egg sandwich wrap was partially made in a rapid convection oven , not purely on the grill. Though can't remember if I saw a grill . The place seemed clean enough and I guess it is appreciated by those who work on the surrounding streets. As it's almost the only game in town, except for the nearby bakery/cafe. Not in a rush to go back , but might give it a second chance . I'm sure the after hours catering from Rudy's is probably great!!

a burger with bacon, cheese and lettuce

Amazing food, great service, felt very comfortable. No complaints, would really suggest this place to anyone looking to fill their belly!

What a wonderful service they have here! I was so glad when I saw the place open again! It was my first time here and they gave me a wonderful experience. Food was tasty and I will definitely come again.

A panini or an unevenly toasted sandwich? You decide.
Joseph D.

Boy has Sals gone down a disappointing hill. First off, this was the best lunch spot. This past week we went there twice and were disappointed both times. Mary wasn't there. . The young guy who was loud, outgoing and new what he was doing behind the counter is gone. . There's a new woman taking orders who's slow. Any questions she refers to Lester the "manager" who looks super stressed and is kinda rude. Let's get to the food debacle. The best sandwich here was the chicken sorrento panini. The panini press is gone and in its place sits an industrial toaster oven. Sadly there is still a "panini" menu. DO NOT EXPECT A PANINI THOUGH. What you could expect is a sandwich on a roll unevenly toasted in a toaster oven.. FAIL. For this I'll just stop in a Subway. Inconsistent now. Monday the Chicken Sorrento I got had about 4 small pieces of chopped chicken on one side and 2 on the other. So let's just call that a mozzarella sandwich, toasted, with roasted peppers and chicken. Today, my chicken sorrento was loaded with chicken but tasted stale. So that's that. I'm not trying anything else on the menu because we aren't going here anymore. This week felt like it was under new ownership. I asked Lester on Monday where everyone was and he told me out sick. So I replied, "the whole staff" and he responded, "yeah pretty much" Sadly I leave you with good luck with trying not to go out of business.

Brioche breakfast sandwich

Sal's is a clean, friendly, and absolutely delicious lunch spot! I had breakfast the other day, which was amazing, and it made me come back for lunch!! I got the brioche breakfast sandwich and fresh squeezed OJ and for my lunch I got the chicken sorrento panini. The place is spotless and the staff are very friendly, highly recommended.

Chicken Noodle Soup with a Grilled Cheese!
Pay D.

The foodie in me loves this quick stop. Iv'e only had it once so far but will order more often! I ordered from Sals online on a sick day. Hands down had the best chicken noodle soup and a simple but amazing grilled cheese. A great pick me up for sure, nicely priced and great proportions.

Yummy custom made chopped salad. Very fresh and tasty. $10

This reminds of a low-end Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace, which I like a lot better. The vegetables look good at this place ( I bought some) but the prepared food I tried was awful. I had a Mediterranean focaccia sandwich and their potato salad. The sandwich was super dry and tasteless and the potato salad had one note of vinegar. I made potato salad for the first time this year and it came out 1,000 times better. Besides this the store layout is a little maze-like. Had the New Jersey article not touted this marketplace as some place I can spend all day and get lost in, I probably would have rated this 3 stars. Nevertheless, it does not live up to the hype for me. I live many miles away from here but even if it were in my town, I would barely frequent it it or just stop by for the vegetables. Their organic scallions were the best, however, so that gets 5 stars. Everything else was mediocre.

It wasn't busy and we were able to seat ourselves wherever we wanted. The restaurant is small, but cozy, and has a local/family-owned feel to it. The interior is simple and charming; it almost feels like you're eating in someone's dining room. The menu has all of your traditional Greek favorites like gyros, souvlaki, lamb shank, fresh seafood, cold dips, moussaka, etc. It's BYOB! We ordered... *Complimentary pita bread and hummus - The pita was soft and fluffy. The hummus was creamy and rich. The combination of sun dried tomatoes, garlic, and chickpeas made the dip earthy, nutty, and tangy. *Kalamarakia $15.95 - I'm picky with calamari, but the chef got this right! The coating was light, crispy, and fried to a perfect golden brown color. It didn't mask the taste of the squid. The squid was tender (but not rubbery) with a subtle sweetness. The fresh lemon and marinara sauce added a tangy zest to the overall flavor. *Grilled Chicken Pita Sandwich with rice $14.95 *Gyro with fries $14.95 (All gyro sandwiches come with lettuce, tomato, onion, tzatziki sauce, and your choice of rice or fries). These were HUGE, filling, and packed with tons of protein! Both the grilled chicken and gyro meat were flavorful and marinated in a blend of herbs and spices. The tzatziki sauce was refreshing and citrusy. The pita bread was warm and soft. I could only finish half of mine and packed the rest to eat later. Our server was really friendly and attentive. The food came out within a reasonable amount of time. Don't sleep on Angelo's!
