We had a retirement dinner at a great restaurant in North Massapequa, NY, Sal's Place. This is a local restaurant with a great history and great food. Our waitress, Marie, was delightful. We had a big group of twenty and Marie handled it with ease. Our drinks were served quickly and always with a smile. We were in a semi-private room in the back of the restaurant and it worked as we had some speeches and lots of well wishing to our retiring employee. The room was comfortable and reminded me of an English pub. We had a buffet of strip steak with gravy, salmon in cream sauce, pasta in a cheese sauce, roasted potatoes, mixed veggies and toasted rolls. The food was so good, I went back for seconds! This a great place to throw a party and/or have lunch or dinner. Some of the party goers told me Sal's hamburgers are the best they have ever had. I can't wait to go back there with my wife and our friends for dinner. If you're in North Massapequa, this is a definite restaurant you need to eat at and you won't be disappointed! You should get there early because parking fills up fast. It's a popular place! It's a definite place to watch sports (e.g., football, basketball, soccer, hockey and baseball). In fact, you need a reservation for the Super Bowl to get a table! Lots of TVs to watch sports. I'll see you there. Enjoy your family and friends at Sal's Place. All the best to you and your families in 2025! read more

Great service and food! Went while at a wake down the street. Will definitely go back!

Sal's place is the best bar/pub in Plainedge and there's nobody even close. Food is great, service is always excellent and the drinks are reasonably priced and cold. Keep up the great service. read more

Can't go wrong going to Sal's Place. For a bar/restaurant the drinks are cold and the food hot, hot, hot. Bring your kiddies. Bring your wife. Just a good home town spot. read more

Getting together with old friends over the holidays is my second-favorite thing to do...and Sal's Place is where it goes down. The steak sandwiches, the draft beer, the cool atmosphere...it's always a great time. I'm looking forward to Friday (11/29) when a good friend and I will be in town and ready to have some classic Sal's good times. Hope to see you there! read more

I came here for an event on Saturday afternoon. The tables were set up nicely. The food was served buffet style. The Caesar salad was perfectly chilled and crisp. The penne Al la vodka was steaming hot and delicious. The eggplant rollatini was stuffed with creamy ricotta and was absolutely delicious. I was happy to see they served chicken Marsala. It's one of my favorites and it didn't disappoint. I loved the hint of Marsala wine and the mushrooms were perfect. I usually stay away from beef dishes, but the steak terryaki looked so good, I tried it. I loved the barbecue flavor it had and the sauce was scrumptious. The rice pilaf was good; the the green bean almondine was served perfectly cooked, with a little crunch to it. The rolls were nice and fresh. I would recommend this restaurant and would go back if I'm ever in that area. read more

A local Plainedge spot. Heard a lot of good things. I was alone, ordered a burger for take out. Well it DID NOT disappoint ! Very good proper burger. If I had to complain about something it would probably be the thimble sized cole slaw serving. Definitely not a deal killer. read more

Sal's Place, man, this spot is one of the best. Been going here for years, and they never miss, new ownership or old. The Texas Gold wings extra crispy are stupid good, roll the dice on the burgers it don't matter, you'll have a good time regardless. Good pickles too. The bar is always packed, which we love to see. TVs playing all the games, great spot for football. I'm not a beer guy so much any more myself, I'm an adult, but their selection is solid. Real good drinks. My family still goes here or takes out once a week. I jump on that band wagon any chance I get. Check out The Oven Podcast and see where else we eat! www.theovenpod.com read more

Nice hometown bar and grill with pretty decent food. I've been here a few times and have never been disappointed. Right when you walk in you get the local bar feel and can tell atleast half the customers are regulars. They have the local HS sports mascot names on the bar wall which is cool along with some long sports pictures. My favorite thing here food wise is there wings. The sauce is delicious and the wings are breaded and cook perfectly. Definitely my favorite local wing spot in the Massapequa/wantagh area. There burgers and sandwiches are also good, which I've had a few different kinds. Staff is friendly and the bartenders aren't shy to give you a buy back which is most appreciated. Overall a nice local spot to try. Enjoy. read more

Been here twice recently. The food is great and the servers are nice. It's always crowded but not too noisy. Definitely a good place to come back to read more

Are you looking for somewhere to go on a Friday or Saturday night! I'm talking about a place where the beer flows like wine and the woman instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano! Im talking about Sals Place! The steak Tidbits is my go to at this place just always keep an eye on your sandwich! I made the mistake getting up to go to the bathroom & when I came back it was gone! I turned to my wife & said you really shouldn't eat my steak sandwich my mother ate my steak sandwich once...............ONCE!!!!!! read more

We dropped in on a Saturday night before Halloween and the decor and staff were dressed for the occasion. Super fun. We were seated after only a few minute wait. Staff was so kind and friendly, especially our waitress Gina. We started off with the calamari with marinara appetizer. So delicious and crunchy. You could tell that it was made fresh, not frozen. And it was a large serving, perfect for sharing. We each had different sandwiches. The marinated skirt steak was fantastic but the bread didn't taste too garlicky. My son's Texas chicken sandwich was the hit of the night. Barbecue sauce, peppers and onions were on point! Sal's checks all the boxes for a night out with the family! read more

Always a great time when I come here with friends and family, great food, great staff! Highly recommend this place

Absolutely phenomenal. Every entree tasted fresh, and was served piping hot. I had the octopus starter and the fra diavolo as the main. What was also complimentary was a second octopus starter because the waiter knew we were planning to share, so we each got our own. Also, the complimentary fudge dessert was nice. It was nice to enjoy such a delicious meal by the water outdoors. read more

Great fun food. The servers are nice and friendly. Nice Ambiance great bar and lots of seating . It's a feel good place.

A lively ambiance. Service very good. Food was delicious. Especially the hamburgers. Done as ordered and fries also very tasty. Prices vary reasonable also! Good buy for the buck. I recommend this pub style restaurant to others. read more

Hometown feel with delicious food! I live right by sals so I go once a week. Haven't had a bad meal yet! My favorite is their ahi tuna, they have wraps or entrees. The wrap is absolutely delicious and the honey wasabi dressing is incredible -- I don't even like mustard flavor because it usually is so overpowering. Great outdoor area for eating too if you are still being cautious about indoor dining with covid. read more

Pretty good sports pub. Came here on a Friday night with some family for dinner. Got a table, but seemed to just sneak in before the dinner rush. Zucchini sticks and calamari were good. For my main, I got the spicy pork hero (served on garlic bread). I swapped out the fries for waffle fries (my fave), which is always a good choice. Pretty big portion sizes, had to take half of it home with me. Could've used more sauce on the sandwich though. read more

Got take out later on a Sunday evening, call was professionally handled and our order spot on as we asked. Pick up experience was smooth and restaurant was well attended as was the bar, with a hockey game on the screen. Had 2 very thick and tasty burgers, nice fries, an excellent Ruben sandwich and a French onion soup. Food was all as good as you can get for take out. Next time we will eat in, but it might be a while as we live 300 miles south of here and get up here a few times a year. read more

They showed us to a table on a Sunday afternoon. There was a party at the next table. No one came over for 15 minutes. So, we left.

We come in from central Suffolk all the time because the people and food are THAT good! Chef Frank doesn't disappoint! Robby, Joe, Sue, Cookie, Patty... all awesome and make you feel at home. Love Sal's! :) read more

I am here about 1x a year. Today was the last time. I got the rueben sliders that were on the lunch special. They were dried out and tasteless. I ate 1 slider. The fries were ok but they gave a very small portion. My husband had a French dip sandwich. That was also small portion and the beef broth was tasteless. All food was cold. We were the only lunch customers but never saw the waitress, Mary. She was disinterested and hanging out at the bar. We had to gett her attention for all service. She did not comment on why all the food was left. My husband said let's just not come back. Get the bill and get out of here. This place was good 10 years ago but with so many nice restaurants, we won't choose this again. read more

Best service Maria was such a great waitress. The food is always amazing. Best French onion soup, hands down.

Great local place , go eat and hang out at the bar . The food was on point and very delicious.

Nice place! The food was very good! Staff was very nice. Will definitely return. Highly recommend Sal's

Good service. Asked about a table but they had the dining room filled with military vets. The hostess said it's a free dinner for the vets they do every year. I said that was outstanding, we would get a table by the bar. Wings were great. I can't think of many places that have better wings than Sal's. Menu is all the high schools mascots as the theme. A lot of coaches and alumni frequent this place . Can't wait to go back read more

Moved out here a few years ago.. live literally within a mile of this joint.. never stopped by. Decided to give it a go tonight (st Paddy's day).. it was pretty busy.. but man. What a great idea. Wish I had come sooner. Joe, the owner, was bartending and was an absolute gentleman. The hostess and waiter, and the wait staff were all attentive and very nice. We got calamari and a couple of burgers. Very reasonable prices and really great food. No complaints at all. It was a very nice night out for the Mrs and I. And now, unfortunately for my wallet, I'll have to find the time to frequent this joint for dinner. Really great spot. Really felt like a part of the family immediately. read more

Always have a great meal there. The staff is always friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.

LOVE Sals .. Moved to Long Island and have been thinking about the #4 ofter. Sals a great guy, it's a pleasure seeing his parents behind the counter.. Food is awesome..... read more

We have previously been there while on vacation and sat on beach during low tide. I saw a couple negative reviews but went for my birthday dinner anyway. It was just as good as we remembered. Our family of 4 come from a city known for it's Italian food. The eggplant parm I got was delicious as well as my husband's seafood dish. Our kids (20&9) both loved the chicken parm and they are both very picky about sauce, said it was the best restaurant they have ever been to. Everyone enjoyed the salad, meatballs, bread, octopus appetizers & fudge after dinner. The service was amazing and the atmosphere was cozy and relaxing. We liked how there were mirrors on the non water view side so all of us felt like we had a view. read more

A place to definitely add to your dining out repertoire. Everything about this eatery was delightful. Four of us tried Sal's Place for the first time last evening and were so glad we did. We were promptly greeted, brought to a table where we had a short & pleasant conversation with our greeter who provided us with menus and a list of specials. Our server (Patti) approached us momentarily, introduced herself, & took our beverage orders. A bus boy came & asked if we would like a bread basket brought to the table. Ok...great start! Easy to locate, pleasant atmosphere, great service and the best was yet to come. Our food choices were served timely and we all enjoyed the atmosphere. We chose an appetizer of Calamari with Thai sauce, which was delicious, fresh & cooked just right. Two of us had the ribs which were fantastic, the other two had sandwich choices (Freedom Dip - a French Dip with Sweet Potato fries; the other chose a Reuben Sandwich with regular fries). Portions were perfect & properly prepared. The menu has a wide variety of choices for entrees and lighter fair. Pricing was very reasonable. As I said... add to your dining out locations. read more

Quality food and quality service. Nice atmosphere if you are looking to dine-in and great service if you are looking to pickup and take home. Highly recommend read more
