I heard about Sal's Pizzeria through TikTok and wanted to give it a try since I live near by. The pizza tasted just as great as it looked like on the videos. Everyone was super nice while taking my order and brought me my order since I ordered it to eat there. The crispness of the pizza was awesome! I always like to support the family run restaurants in my area and I believe I just found my go to pizza place. Thanks for the amazing Pizza! read more

Wow! What happened to you guys? We are from NY so we know good pizza. Sal's is one of the only pizza spots in Irvine that made a decent pizza that somewhat resembled that of a NY slice. We have been coming here for years... but this last experience was completely off. We ordered a whole pie of the usual and everything was off. What is up with the solidified cheese that looked like a solid form of ricotta? The pizza was small and the dough was not up to par. Even the edges were weird. What the heck happened? Please undo whatever new thing you guys are trying to do because it's not working. read more

Sal's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Foothill Ranch, California

Been coming here for years, never disappoints! Good quality and friendly service on top of great food... what more could you ask for? Favorite item would have to be the stromboli, but their pizza is always good too, also the garlic knots! read more

**Updated Visit from January 3rd (I'm just now getting around to posting it! Haha) Thank you to Joseph for helping me the LAST SLICE of Brooklyn Cheese on this Saturday that I came in! It was cheesy, saucy and the crust was crusting! Haha it was delicious and I'm glad I came! Thank you also for your kindness and quick service, Joseph! Thank you also to Brendan for helping me with my pickup order and for getting my Brooklyn Slice out of the oven for me just in time! Brendan was so kind and helpful and accommodating! I asked if I could get 7 Parmesan cheese for my Spaghetti order and he ended up blessing me with 9 instead! Thank you so much! It made my Spaghetti taste that much better! I had to give a 5/5 rating to Sal's Pizzeria for my entire experience! It's one of my favorite Italian Restaurants in the area and I look forward to coming back again soon! read more

Always great pizza and subs. Friendly atmosphere and the employees are welcoming. I usually just get the pepperoni pizza and I have not been disappointed ever. read more

Sal's Pizzeria - Brooklyn Cheese, added pepperoni on half - Pizza Near Me - Foothill Ranch, California

It was our first time trying Sal 's Pizzeria - needless to say we will be coming back here. This Sal's is located next to a variety of different restaurants next to it so there are plenty of covered seats outside. Each slice was $4.75 a piece which is not too bad. I ordered a slice of The White pizza and it was delicious! If you are a big fan of cheese then this is for you - this pizza had mozzarella, ricotta, Parmesan, and I'm sure other cheeses I can't remember the name of. There is no pizza sauce on the pizza instead they use olive oil. My husband said the pepperoni and cheese slices were also delicious. I'll definitely be getting The White slice again. The gentlemen who took our order was very helpful asking all my questions about what kind of pizza is this and what's in it. read more

Love Sal's. The 18inch Cheese Pizza is excellent. Worth all the $23. The tomato sauce is perfect! Also, the garlic knots with the side of the best Marinara sauce! Delicious. The employee that served me was Juan. He is polite and helpful and answered all my questions about the menu! Very clean inside. Will be back. read more

Sal's Pizzeria - Counter - Pizza Near Me - Foothill Ranch, California

Contrary to the name, Sal's has a lot more than just pizza. Although for pizza they do have the thick crust square pizza as well as round pizzas. They also have salads, sandwiches, and pasta. Service was very friendly. I didn't look around much inside, as we were eating outside. I had the Linguine Alfredo, and it was yummy. Definitely going back. read more

Pizza is fresh, sauce and dough are good, loved the garlic knots too. Ordered slices in person today but have also been very happy with ordering pies to go. Felix at the front is great! read more

This place is very convenient--close to my house, affordable, and fast. I really love their Greek and cheese pizza. The food is great, but sometimes the service could be better. read more

Went here for lunch today. I got one grandma slice, a Brooklyn cheese slice and a pepperoni slice. They were all cold and chewy. It seemed like it was day old pizza. I usually like this spot, but this experience changed my mind read more

Sal's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Foothill Ranch, California

We miss East Coast pizza. This is the closest we've found. Ordering has always been easy, and we got hooked when Sal's offered free delivery during COVID. The NY style pizza has the perfect ratio of sauce, cheese and toppings. The crust doesn't exactly have the same taste and consistent texture of a New York slice in New York, but it's good. read more

I'm on the hunt for the best pizza spot in foothill ranch and I have to say, Sal's is not it. Not even close. Walking into the restaurant, I noticed the staff were grooving to some hip hop music while cooking. I'm a huge hip hop fan so I didn't mind, but there were some kids in the shop that probably shouldn't be listening to the profanity. Either way, I'm firm believer that in order to make good food, you gotta be cooking in a good environment. So based on how chill the staff seemed, I expected the food to hit, but I could not have been more wrong. I ordered the Nonna Lucia (basically a margarita pizza) and it was mediocre at best. The biggest flaw was the crust. It was overcooked, making it very hard and unpleasant to chew. And I'm not just talking about the end of the pizza, the entire bread areas were hard. Additionally the overall flavor was not there. I also ordered the garlic knots which were better, but were heavily drenched in olive oil, making that the most prominent flavor. In the end I won't be coming back to Sal's. While the staff seemed chill, the lack of dedication put in the food gives the restaurant an apathetic vibe that will deter any lover of decent pizza. read more

Sal's is always 5/5 stars. We really love their homemade ranch and parmesan cheese. Our go-to order is pepperoni pizza with onion and jalapeño. Thanks for being our favorite local pizza spot! *This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion. read more

Pizza came out super soggy. And this is eating it straight after it came out of the oven. Maybe need to heat it more? Not sure but came here with high expectations as our family enjoyed Sals at Mission Viejo and everything from the crust and toppings were on point there. The crust is more bland (so crispy and flavorful at MV), toppings are too soggy, the taste is just ok. Mmmm not sure I would come back, maybe I need to try other things on the menu. Daughter said the chicken Alfredo was yummy at least. read more

Staff are friendly, getting garlic knots. It is tasty but a little bit oily. A few tables inside but you can also sit outside, pizzas look fresh! read more

I been coming to this place for pizza since early 2000 years . Name might had changed but the quality continues to today days. It shows with a quality of employees they're over 20 year Tinder years of service. Excellent Pizza and other dishes. read more

This is located in a food court type area with a lot of other restaurants. Sal's is consistently good food for both small and large orders. very good thin crust option. When I have ordered ahead, it is always ready on time. We are repeat customers for sure. read more

This pizza here is truly Italian made. The ingredients are fresh and I can taste that the dough was hand tossed. I ordered sausage and pepperoni, the meat was high quality Italian. This is definitely a pizza you should try! read more

This is probably one of the best local pizza restaurants in Vegas! It is truly a local gem. We have been several times and the ingredients are always fresh and tasty! read more

I was really surprised by this pizza. It's not the best I've ever had but it's very good and has a classic flavor. Anyone who knows pizza or bakes pizzas at home can appreciate the quality of these pies. The front was very helpful and directed me to the prices very quickly. The ambiance is good, it's a pizza place where they showcase them on the window, how it's supposed to be. The pizza we got was good and then I got a grandma pie which is where I think they did it best. Only thing is the price, but that's CA pizza for some reason. It wouldn't fly in NY! read more

Sal's Pizzeria - Grandma Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Foothill Ranch, California

The pizza I got looked nothing like these pictures. I wish I had taken a picture of it. The crust was as white as my behind. The cheese was low quality and the whole thing was dry. I REALLY like their pinwheels. I don't know. I'd be willing to try some other things but the Sicilian pizza was NOT the one. My family is from Brooklyn and we were all disappointed. read more

The pizza slice tasted good. If you order a sandwich or a pie you should expect a wait. We were the only ones who ordered and we had to wait 10 - 15 minutes for our sandwich and heating up the slice of cheese that was on display. They have a great selection of pizza and I'll be back to sample their slices. One bite, everyone knows the rules. read more

I was a bit surprised on a Friday night there were no garlic knots ready to go and we didn't want to wait, so we got some slices of margherita and one of grandma's bread crumb and onions. Overall decent pizza- I appreciated that the pizza was not overly greasy, and loved that when we asked for extra marinara that they gave it to us nice and warm for dipping. I'm hoping if we go back again there will be more by the slice options - I was really hoping to try their bbq chicken. read more

Everything needs to improve!!! Got the works pizza for 33$ plus $3 for anchovies I don't believe pizza should be a complete soggy mess and 1/8 thick in the center and 2 inch thick sides! Also got the Greek pizza $32 and same terrible crust and toppings that were nonexistent !!! Please I try to frequent locals since I live here but please think 2x before ordering here! read more

I was searching for a local pizza joint that was highly rated when I discovered Sal's Pizzeria on Yelp. Sal's serves authentic Sicilian inspired pizza and Italian foods, and they claim to only use fresh ingredients. They have a few locations in the OC including Foothill Ranch, Mission Viejo and Tustin. We ordered from the Foothill location which can be found in the food court off of Towne Center Drive. The menu options include grandma pies, Sicilian style pizza, NY style pizza, garlic knots, meatballs, salads, traditional favorites like Stromboli and calzones, pasta, sandwiches and desserts. I ordered the pepperoni pinwheel which was served with a side of marinara sauce. It must've been yummy because my daughter inhaled the entire thing for dinner. Given I did not eat the pizza slices until the next day, I could still taste the quality and the cheesiness out of the home oven. I heart NY style pizza, so I had to try the cheese, pepperoni and mushroom & pepperoni. I hope to try other locations and menu items as well but regardless I'll be back the next time I'm craving a slice! read more

Great pizza! Closest you'll get to New York pizza this side of the west coast Service is fast! read more

The pizza is good but never ready on time, I've waited 20-30 minutes when I show up at the time it's supposed to be ready

I pre-ordered my pizza on a Friday night at around 4:30pm for a 6:30pm pickup knowing it was going to be busy. Arrived around 6:40pm to pick up my pizza and was told that it was still going to be at least 20 mins for my pizza to be ready. I'm assuming they missed/forgot about my order. But the unfortunate part was that no one cared. None of the employees did anything to try to compensate, and they didn't even apologize. And to top it off pizza was mid. Just get dominos and save your time and money. read more

I started visiting Sal's in Foothill Ranch, per my Uncle's recommendation, when I moved to California in January 2024. Every Tuesday, they have a BOGO special where you basically get two slices of pizza for $4.85 out the door. I've been visiting almost every Tuesday ever since, because their pizza is fantastic! Sal's is like Terra Mia's - or Terra Mia's is like Sal's - in that they offer different varieties of large, New York style slices of pizza. They use real Italian sausage on their pepperoni & sausage and their Works pizza, which I think tastes superior to regular sausage. I recommend examining their pizzas when you walk in and seeing which flavors look fresh. As with any pizza, they are much better when they are fresh out of the oven, but, sometimes they sit awhile, and with a trained eye, you can tell when they have sat and when they are fresh. To be clear, everything gets thrown back in the oven when you order it, but if its sat awhile before hand, it won't taste as fresh. The workers here are friendly and cooperative. (Hat tip to Brendan). This Sal's is located next to the Cinemark theater in the food court plaza that includes a Cold Stone. Easy to access from Bake Pkwy. You can sit inside or outside, although indoor seating is slightly limited. The vibe inside does feel more like a takeout place than a sitdown restaurant, but that doesn't stop me from sitting inside and enjoying my meal anyway. Highly recommended on Tuesdays. And any other day of the week! read more

Can't tell you how disappointed I was with their pizza tonight. Ive been using the tustin location which closed order I think from Foothills location? Not sure orders through Door Dash. Both pizzas were dry, thin felt like something reheated off the shelf. I must have recommended them 100 times, looks like I'll be searching a new pizza place. So sad. read more

After watching a movie, we decided to grab some slices at Sal's. Man, I wish there was a Sal's closer to home in LA cause I would definitely be a regular. The service is fast and friendly here. / FOOD / Grandma Pie Cheese - Mozzarella cheese, homemade tomato sauce. Yes, yes, and YES again! Order this cause it's freaking delicious! It's so simple but the ingredients shine. I love the crunch on the dough, the tomato sauce is heavenly. I will definitely be back to try more of their grandma style pies. Pepperoni and mushroom slice - Your typical pepperoni and mushroom slice. It's probably very good, but after eating this after the Grandma slice - there was just no competition as far as what I liked more. Garlic knots - parsley, garlic butter knots served with marinara sauce. How can you not order some garlic knots?!? I mean honestly, buttery and garlic bread that you dip into their marinara sauce. Amazing! Like I said, I wish it was closer to where I live, but at least I know what to eat the next time I'm in the area! read more

Sal's makes great, fresh pizzas. The 2 stars is because of an employee who took my order, who claimed to be "in charge" but did not know of their current promo. I called in an order and wanted to use the promo but he told me they didn't have such a promo and that he didn't know of such an offer. I asked to speak with someone in charge, he said that was him! I'm attaching a screenshot of the promo I took on FB. I didn't get his name but today is Sun., 9/1, 4:30 pm. read more

flavor and style of pizza somewhat similar to costco. The regular pepperoni slice definitely has a cheese blend and not just whole milk mozzarella which I thought was decent flavor but a tad bit too salty. Pizza was quite soggy and wet which I didn't like. Bottom is lacking in crisp and could use an extra minute in the oven. Grandma slice, we honestly didn't really care for. Not sure why it's their signature as it was not spectacular in any sense. Lack of flavor throughout and texture a bit on the thinner side for a grandma slice. read more
