Homemade Lasagna
Mohamed K.

I came here two times now, and plan on stopping by again. Good pizzeria considering the location, it is in Ithaca of course. First time I got a chicken parm hero, and second time I got the lasagna. The hero was probably the best I've had in Ithaca. They use Ithaca Bakery bread which makes all the difference! The lasagna was a bit bland on the meat, but as you can see the cheese is definitely there. Small sized pizzeria, with about a dozen tables. Nevertheless, it feels satisfying. The staff are really great, they check-in on you, refill water, and, in my case, bring more sauce.

Sals has been an Ithaca favorite for as long as I've known. My old employer loved getting Sals every year. Fast forward to 2024 - I ordered a small cheese pizza for my spouse, it was great. I also ordered boneless garbage wings and they literally made her physically sick. Incase anyone wants to research me, I have never discarded a wing in my life, and these "wings" made me sick to my stomach a day later. I also ordered traditional wings, and you can see by the picture, these are ugly AF! Is this the result of new ownership? Please, let me know.

Traditional Chicken Wings

Absolutely a must visit restaurant! The lasagna was AMAZING! Wings are better than Duff's and Anchor Bar! It's clean! Clean restroom! The staff are friendly and you can literally watch them make every order! Locals were picking up pizza and wings to-go the entire time I was there! Thank you for an excellent meal experience!!!

Clean, friendly spot with good homemade food. Right across from Agway on your way to Weggies. Stop by and visit the original Roma pizza ovens!

Sal 's Special

By far some of the worst pizza I have had. The mozzarella was probably the worst quality and had a bizarre consistency. The pizza itself was greasy with absolutely no flavor, and pricy for what you get. The picture shows the glop of food you get for $24. Inside of the restaurante is pretty disgusting as well. Also the inside has no menu and subpar costumer service. Not a stop if you are in Ithaca!

Out first and last visit resulted in an undercooked, greasy, overly cheesed, bland pizza that was overpriced. Never again.

Franco's Pizzeria - Fantastic Pizza - The Best in Ithaca hands down!

My partner and I have been loyal Franco's customers for many years. We usually grab slices or a pie…read moreto go. Last night, we had a non-stellar experience around 7:30-8pm. There were just 2 other diners, and staff were mostly standing around talking to each other. My partner asked for our toddler's slice to be warmed up "10-20 seconds, it's for a baby" when we received the slice *a few minutes later* it was so hot I burned the roof of my mouth when testing it for her. FIVE MINUTES LATER we received our personal slices which had been left in the oven so long the crust was burnt to a crisp. When I said "excuse me, this is burnt" to the counter person, they looked at me with a blank stare and then proceeded to walk away. As a former server, maitre d, and FOH manager, I know this is not how you appropriately handle a situation in which a guest is upset before even touching their food. There was no offer to replace the (literally black crusted) pizza, no "sorry" no ... anything. Instead, a blank stare as they went back behind the counter to continue their conversation with the pizza cook. The pizza is still great, but if this is what Franco's thinks qualifies as half-way decent customer service - they have some issues that need correcting. I don't know if we'll be back; maybe we will just continue taking to go instead of trying to enjoy a meal on-site.

I asked my real estate agent what was the best pizza in Ithaca. No hesitation she said Franco's…read more Cool little spot reminds me of a drive in a bit with the upfront parking and the big windows. Nice lofted space with high ceilings and the pizza opens prominently displayed smack dab in the middle. Great selection of Neapolitan and Sicilian slices. Italian sodas and desserts. We tried an assortment some garlic knots. Everything with delicious. The Sicilian was particularly airy yet crisp. Pretty good. Definitely agree with it being on of the best pizza spots in Ithaca I have tried to date.

Visited BG Budas for lunch with a couple friends. Server was nice enough, but service itself was…read moremuch slower than expected (especially because there were very few people there at the time). Server also didn't write down our orders, and then brought out one of the orders incorrectly... which, unfortunately, my friend didn't feel like she could send back because everything was taking so long. Food itself was okay... but could use more flavor. For example, a friend and I split the lobster corn fritters (fresh Maine lobster, sweet corn, asiago, cilantro, honey mustard, and sriracha). The fritters were almost entirely corn, and I tasted no hint of asiago or the cilantro (and I like cilantro, so I tend to pick up on the taste pretty easily... but there was nothing). The pizza I ordered for my main dish was fine... if perhaps a bit undercooked. One of my friends ordered a pizza with tomatoes on it, and it came out with large, rectangle chunks of tomato covering the pizza (red and yellow tomatoes). At first, she though the yellow tomatoes were pineapple chunks because of the size. She figured out they were tomatoes, but the amount of them on the pizza itself made it a bit awkward to eat. Ambiance was interesting. It feels welcoming enough, but the door to the outside patio was open and there were numerous flies that would seemingly dive-bomb my friends and I during our meal. Because the door was open, it was also a bit muggy inside the restaurant itself. Anyway... would I/we rush back? Probably not. And I certainly wouldn't grab lunch here again just because of how much time it took.

I got take out and it was ready when I requested & brought to my car. Tasty calamari and…read morefries--appetizers are always a win and these didn't disappoint.
