My wife and I left the skating rink around 9pm on Sunday evening with 4 kids. We were very tired and hungry so we were looking to for something fast and inexpensive because we still had a 30 minute trek home. We stopped at Sal's. Not only was the pizza amazing but the service was outstanding. We enter thinking they may be closing soon because they were cleaning and the back area where the bigger tables was closed off. When the young lady behind the counter found out we were dining in she offered to open the back room. We informed her it wasn't necessary. We ordered aa large pizza and a 2 liter. While we are waiting for our pizza she brings us garlic knots to eat while we are waiting for the pizza. That in itself was great. She then gave us all fountain drinks. I reminded her we got a 2 liter. She knew and said it was on the house. She then brings us our pizza which was the size of the table. This thing was massive. We all had one slice a piece and were full. She then gave us red fills on our drinks while we sat there with a unopened 2 liter of Dr. Pepper. We left there full with a whole 2 liter of Dr. Pepper and 2 slices of pizza left from the pie we ordered. I don't write reviews unless it's really really great service. This may be my 3rd review in 10 years that I've written. Sals on Independence gets my vote. read more

Quiet place with no wait. You can order your food and eat in if you choose. No waiter or waitresses service. My daughters ordered a strawberry lemonade and did not like it because it had chunks of strawberries in it, not just strawberry flavoring. They ordered a 11 inch pizza. The pizza was very hard so they did not particularly like it. Mozzarella sticks were crunchy and not what we were used to. They did have a good cheese pull. My steak and cheese Stromboli was very greasy and garlicky. It tasted good because it was better quality steak than just steak-umm meat. read more

$20 for chicken parm ($40 because I bought 2). It is NOT chicken parm. It is frozen chicken fingers with sauce and cheese. I expected chicken breast. Sal's refused to make it right. Steer clear! read more

This place is roach infested. If you spend 30 minutes inside no doubt that you'll see roaches crawling. I was literally served a Parmesan cheese dispenser with 5-6 roaches inside and could not believe it. No refund or anything I was simply asked if I had used it yet. I don't see this place lasting much longer as I never see it get any service. read more

I'm a really Italian from New Jersey and I've lived in Va Beach for 35 years because I was married to a military man. I discovered SALS PIZZA on South independence about 10 years ago and I know the original owner came from ITALY Naples I believe not for sure however I don't know why this got bad reviews but I can tell you SAL's is one of the best pizzas I have ever eaten in 35 years that I have been here. Now I know they sold it and recently renovated it and what not? I believe they are foreigners that bought it but it's to my understanding that they have to use the same recipe as Sal used, now I have not seen a change in the pieces. Because they are still very very good the place is always clean and I've gotten to know the lady behind the counter and she's very nice but I would recommend this place. I've had several things on the menu so I didn't like someone I did like, but the pizza is amazing and ICE 100% recommend this place. read more

We usually order out when we get sals. Which is often because the pizza is so delicious. This time I felt like sitting in. For the first time we dined in and the experience was amazing! I told my husband we might have to just dine in every time from now on. The staff is so friendly. You can tell they are very close. They treat you the same. The food is always amazing and dining in just highlighted it all even more! The atmosphere is very laid back and relaxing but still very family friendly. read more

This is hands down the best pizza on my area (lynnhaven salem area). I admit I used to be a Bella customer at Salem crossing but they changed some things up and I had to move on. I discovered Sal'z and I absolutely love it. Pizza is awesome! If you like a traditional NY pizza. This is it! Oh and the staff is amazing! Check em out read more

Sals pizza has been reliable so far as their pizza is concerned. It's usually hot and fresh. However when ever you cal in an order, if they are busy the person who answers the phone always seems super distracted and my order has been wrong a few times. But they always make it right. Last time we ordered we got wings. I asked for them to be crispy but they weren't. They were not good at all, really greasy and dry. I won't order wings from here again. I also like that they serve pizza by the slice! read more

I was visiting the area & had a craving for some wings, (not "wing place wings", but "pizza spot wings" trust me they are totally different). They were pretty good, I wish I'd ordered them extra crispy, but I'm still satisfied with their original. Even my boyfriend could just smell how good they were & kept asking about them later I'm sure this will become our go to spot for "Pizza wings" now lol read more

Pizza is pretty good for the area! I'm From up north so I'm use to authentic Italian pizza. My only complaint would be the customer service. There's been several occasions where I placed a order and I get there and they forgot to put the order in. Also, if they give an estimate time add at least a additional 25 minutes because it's never ready when advised. I've also had the wings, gyro and garlic knots which all were pretty good. Overall, good pizza for pretty good prices. read more

Order from the menu tonight, waited about an hour to get the wrong pizza. The manager said they no longer make that pizza, he had made ours, new it was wrong but couldn't be bothered to let us know before sending. I recommend going to ynot.

Ok cause there was a piece of hair in my Food after they messed up The order it was cooked INTO the pizza so It was done on purpose it was a ball of hair not one piece a BALL then the "owner " comes to my house to say that he wants the difference like what then starts getting loud with me and my boyfriend at the front door then he says " WELL LET ME SEE IT I JUST WANT TO SEE " because he didn't believe us I guess ? I work in food service and a ball of hair cooked into the pizza is not a mistake that's intentional anyways I used to love this place but off of that whole thing I'm just done with them please stay away because GOD FORBID they make a mistake and you call back to tell them what happened . read more

*Uber eats scam. One day, delivery fee is as advertised on Uber Eats (.99) and order arrived within 30 minutes in a bag, with receipt. Today, delivery was made by the restaurant ($4.91 fee) and it took 1 hour and 45 minutes to arrive. No bag, no receipt, just left on porch. Guy I spoke to had an attitude and said, "I'm busy" ... you can omit one less customer from your busy schedule, brah. Cal'z it is read more

I've been here a few times due to word of mouth and this place has always been a very "Meh" for me. And I think it's honestly due to the fact that I don't like this style/flavor of pizza crust. This time I ordered a Greek pizza and a lamb gyro. The toppings on the pizza were good, hearty chunks of feta, but again the crust was a no-go. The Gyro was good! Flavors were there and were awesome, but my pita was hard. I've always had soft fluffy pitas and this was a little on the hard side. So, for you Yelpers out there, give this place a shot and see for yourselves and make your own opinion! Again, the 3 stars are only for my taste-not due to service or cleanliness or anything. read more

I was duped, I saw the photos on Yelp and assumed the prices were as listed. My order was double what it would have cost. Next time I will try pick up and see if I get different prices. The photo shows the chicken parm as 8 or 9 dollars, when ordered for delivery it was almost 17. The 35 wings were 36$, and a sandwich alone (a freaking cheesesteak, was almost $15) If this is the new pricing I will not be going back. Their food is good, but it's not that good. read more

I thought this would be a good experience because i was ordering basic food. But i was absolutely dissapointed. When i walked in the girl at the counter was nice. She was talking across the restaurant using profanity with her friends. I didn't have a huge issue with it. But anyone else could have been easily offended. I ordered a cheesesteak sub, fries, jalapeno poppers, and lemoncello cake. The lettuce on the sub was wilted and brown. It looked old and sad. My fries were so raw i might as well have just bit into a uncooked potato. I was really surprised they'd have given anything out to a customer like that. Cold, floppy, and raw. The jalapeno poppers were all i had to hope would turn out good, but nope. Another let down.. The breading was falling off, they were burnt, and the worst part was the ranch was sour... Ugh... I didn't want to have to say all this but I'm seriously let down by this. When i asked for a fork i was told they have no cutlery... What?? A spoon, no to that to... Smh... I spent $30 so i feel like something should have been good about my meal. My cake was good. I'll give them that... I don't think I'll ever eat here again... The experience was not good at all. Theres more to complain about, but I'll stop here!!! read more

I asked for an italian sub with green peppers and onions. However, when i received my sandwich it was smothered in marinara sauce, peppers and also had mayonnaise on it and basically no sausage. Which is not what I wanted. I politely asked for it be remade and was met with rude and unnecessary customer service ( yelling and then was dismissed and passed onto another person at the store) that still yield no quality italian sub. It's been over an hour since I requested my food be remade. No new food. read more

Well...2 of 2 failures and I'm done. I wanted to give them another chance after I'd ordered from them about 6 months ago and received a pizza with sausage that was obviously rotten bc it had that rancid meat taste. They apologized then, took my name so I could get a free pizza, and fixed it and sent another when I requested it the following week. This time, ordered through Yelp/Grub Hub. First of all, the delivery time was quoted at 35-45 minutes BEFORE ordering...after I ordered and paid the delivery time changed to 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 mins. Waited...order came in an hour, pizza was cold, cheese barely melted, crust not even browned. They clearly rushed the pizza...wasn't even warm when it got here. AND...I also ordered garlic knots and a salad which weren't even delivered. Delivery guy acted like he didn't know and said he'd get on them about it...restaurant manager Rashid said it was the grub hub guys fault and took no responsibility for the error. He kept claiming the pizza was JUST made...I live 7 minutes from the shop...how was it luke warm when it got here, if so? read more

I ordered off their online option and everything went through except for them not answering the phone or saying that they are permanently closed!!! that was $46.50 down the drain!! beyond frustrated with this place and the current owner!!!! my brother used to own this place back when it was an actual good restaurant and had meaning to the local area but now it's nothing but trash, it's very disappointing. read more

I just left this establishment after having the worst experiences in customer service. I ordered an extra large pizza and mozzarella sticks over the phone when I came to pick it up as I typically do because I've been eating here for years, I tipped and was very polite to everybody in the establishment. When I got home and got ready to eat dinner including the mozzarella sticks I realized that there was no cheese in several of the mozzarella sticks, there were seven in the box total. When I called the establishment to ask if they could perhaps deliver me some because I live about five blocks away they didn't even inquire about where I lived they just told me that they couldn't because of staff, which was understandable. A young lady offered me 25% off of my next meal but I don't know what I'm going to eat there again so I just asked for a refund. Upon doing so, I had to speak to the owner of the establishment Joe and he was very rude short tempered with me. He told me in order to get a refund I would have to bring the mozzarella sticks back he rushed me off the phone so I proceeded to go back to Sals Pizza and show him evidence that there was no cheese in my mozzarella sticks. The young lady at the front could not process the refund so he had to come out to the front and I explained to him my grievances and that I was disappointment with the service and how rude he was and that he didn't apologize he looked at me and said whatever ma'am and proceeded to try to process the refund. As someone who's been eating at this establishment since they were in high school I can say that I am deeply saddened at the decline of the customer service and the food quality I will never eat here again. read more

The best around for delicious fresh pizza. Always fast on deliveries. Highly recommend over the big chain pizza places.

OK, so Sal's is damn good stuff. I ordered a large margherita, a Greek salad and some wings. The pizza was the best I've had in a looong time. The salad was very good, lots of toppings, the wings were tasty and as you'd expect from a good pizza place. Overall the food was 5 stars. Two things combined reduced my rating by one star. 1) it's expensive. Woo momma. One large pizza, 8 or 10? Wings, and one medium sized Greek salad was over $40. Ouch Sal! Just ouch. 2) you gotta double check your order. They initially forgot my wings and I was halfway through the parking lot before I caught it. So, overall, great food, but you pay for it with a limb. Definitely order pickup! I can't imagine adding on another $5-$7 or so for delivery and tip. Just ordered take out for my second trip here. I tried the fried ravioli and garlic knots, yum!! So good! And I got pictures of the menu since I couldn't find any in pics or online. Hope someone gets good use out of it! I know I will next week! read more

Ordered one Italian spaghetti and meat balls (homemade) where?!? And ordered a baked ziti add meatballs Bland and watery meatballs were mush pasta had no flavor no seasoning existed in either dish and no cheese how do you ordered baked ziti and no cheese also ordered a Ceasars salad that came with cheddar cheese I have ordered from the other Sal's location but this one at 1917 S independence Blvd is a strong NO! Save yourself $20 and go to McDonald's ! I ended up going to Kroger and cooking myself!!! read more

A great, locally owned, hometown pizza shop. Pizza by the slice as well. Although there's a larger and more advertised chain closer to my house. I prefer Sal's. Their dough is better, their pizza crust is better. And you know you're supporting a local, small business. A truly win win situation. read more

We order from here at least once a week, food is great but every single time our order is messed up. I have stopped trusting delivery and only order when I know I can go in and check my order.

Service is spectacular, the teriyaki wings are !! I didn't eat the pizza because i don't like pizza.

We ordered lemon pepper wings they said it would be here less then an hour shoot to over an hour later we get our food and when we get to the wings low and behold there was no sauce on it it was plain wings we call and the lady says she'll refund us and we were happy because my husband loves the place ten mins later the cook called us back being rude saying we don't know what we're talking about that there definitely was sauce on the wings and how we don't have kitchen experience (which me and my husband both do) and "unfortunately there is nothing we can do because I definitely put sauce on those wings" and being very rude and disrespectful. Food sucks and customer service sucks 0 out of 100 would not recommend or advise. read more

Had some dinner delivered from Sal's last night while watching a PPV over at a friends house. The food was decent. Our order consisted of 2 pies, a Supreme and a Pepperoni. 2 orders of Wings, Hot and Medium and a side of Garlic Knots. The pizza dough was fresh, toppings for the most part were ok. I thought the pies could have cooked a little bit longer as the slices were very chewy. The sauce was generic canned sauce. Basically these pizzas are what I would refer to as a utility pie. It's not the best, certainly not the worst. The wings looked like they had sat to long. Taste was fine but the moisture from them being wrapped in foil had definitely taken it's toll and they were all kinda mushy instead of crisp. Disappointing. Last but not least were the Garlic Knots. They were on point and super good. They also came with a large cup of Mariana for dipping. Absolutely delicious. So like I said, a mixed bag. Again this was a carry out order, and the experience may be better if had dined in at the restaurant. Maybe we'll see in a future review. read more

Worst calzone ever. Zero ricotta cheese. Instead there was alfredo sauce, very liquid consistency.

Besides an actual restaurant this is my local pizza parlor...the crust can be hit or miss(hard or just right), but when you grow up on an Italian Pizza Parlor this is as close as it gets!!! Been a fan for a while now and I wanted to share. I broke away from my normal cheese 18" pie and opted for 1/2 beef burger and lite onion!!! Pure glory!!! For those of you that caught them on an off day...please try again. read more

Good food been eating here off and on for almost 20 years. Some great deals. Always try to support your local spots.

Do I like to give bad reviews? No because bad reviews are so easy, I am always looking for a reason to give a good review well, this time I can't. I placed an order via grub hub. I received a phone call about 2 minutes after placing the order. No message was left. The call was made to me twice in one minute and NO VM WAS LEFT EITHER TiME. So I wait and wait and wait for my order. My expected delivery time comes and goes. I Make a call and was met on the phone by a rude individual. She stated "I tried to call you and tell you that we didn't have any 20oz or Italian dressing but you didn't answer so I was waiting for you to call back" ny response "I was working and didn't know you called because no voicemail was left" she said "yeah we don't typically leave vms" HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW ITS YOU? She then went to say "my driver called you several times to deliver the food" I said "I can show you my phone because I didn't receive any calls from anyone other than you" She said "yeah well my driver showed me her phone and she called you multiple times" Did I give the wrong address? Yes, it was a mistake because mistakes do happen. This female employee said "we can send it back out to you but it will be quite a while until you get your food" I asked nicely "can you remake the food if it's going to be while?" She then said RUDELY "yeah, sure I guess" Why? Why be rude to me when I wasn't rude to you? This is poor poor poor customer service! *update* the food FINALLY arrived and I was promised that it would be remade. #Fail it was never remade room temp food. read more

So usually the food is awesome. Today i ordered two cheesesteaks and a pizza. Pizza was fine. Good as always. The cheesesteaks barely had any meat and were skimpy. Didn't see much cheese even though i ordered extra. Two small tomato wedges, lettuce looked awful. The meat was also covered with little burnt pieces like we got leftover grill scraps or something. Not pleased with this order! Not sure what happened today because usually their food is perfect. read more
