Sal's New Classic Pizzeria - Oneonta

I was skeptical about the recent buyout and was wondering how it would impact the quality of food and service at the restaurant. However, I took a chance and placed a large order with the new owner over the weekend and I was pleasantly surprised. The food was incredibly delicious, the service was top-notch, and I even got the chance to meet and shake hands with the new owner. Not only has he maintained the tradition of excellent Italian cuisine, but he has also raised the bar for quality at what I have always considered one of the best restaurants in Oneonta.

- I love the ambiance and excellent customer service at this authentic Italian restaurant. It is family-owned and if I lived closer, I would be a regular here. Bobby and his staff have done an amazing job!

We waited for an hour for a large pizza and garlic knots at a restaurant that wasn't even busy. By the time we got back to our place, which was only 2 blocks away, the pizza was already cold. We won't be returning.

New owner is top notch and the pizza is amazing! highly recommended!

New ownership has brought a breath of fresh air to this place. No offense to the old owner, but I was not a fan of his recipes. However, the new pizza recipes are delicious. I had a Chipotle Chicken slice and a Ricotta and Penne slice. Wow, they were delicious! And the portion size was amazing!Sal's, in my opinion, now has some of the best pizza in town and I'm looking forward to my next visit.EDIT:In response to the owner: the difference, therefore, may be in the execution. I never tried these particular slices when the old owner had the place, but had ordered pies on a couple of occasions and just felt they fell short of the mark for me. Again, I don't mean any offense whatsoever to the old ownership. In fact, when I had ordered pies before, I don't think they were made by the old owner anyway.Anyway, Bobby had great execution on the pies and I really enjoyed them.
