My daughter and I decided to try Sal’s Pizza last evening. It is a new Pizzeria that opened in the E-town, Pa. area in about the last 6 months. I don’t usually try out new pizza businesses in our area, because I am usually disappointed. Usually there is no taste in the crust. I had wondered when they were building Sal’s Pizza how they would do, since there are many pizza businesses in our area, in such a short distance from each other. The had started the build, by demolishing another small business there about a year ago, and their building now inside and outside are impressive. It seems like they are doing quite well.
I ordered a cheese steak and only a slice of pizza, because my daughter didn’t want any pizza and had ordered a cheeseburger sub. I was really surprised how good the pizza was. The crust was very good and the pizza really tasted like some of the NY street pizzas I have tried before, that were really good. The bottom crust had the right amount of golden brown. The rim was a little puffy and also was very good. The pizza had a slight crisp on the bottom crust. I couldn’t watch the man that was making the pizza, because he was behind some kind of partition, but saw they do have a big Marshall deck oven. I didn’t bring my camera along, because I didn’t think the pizza would be that good, but will take my camera the next time I visit. I talked to the Italian woman that took my order, because I wanted to take the pizza and cheese steak home. I couldn’t get much information from her because she had a heavy accent and didn’t really understand what I was saying. It still makes me wonder when I see the TF for NY style pizzas here on the forum if the pizza TF are right for a NY street style pizza, because the slice I ate and most of the slices I have eaten in NY are thicker than my pizzas at market are. The rolls are freshly made and are kinda flat, but also have a great flavor. They are also soft.
If anyone is ever in this area, I would recommend Sal’s Pizza. They do have waitresses that will take your order and are very attentive, if you want to eat in.
