Salvatore's Tomato Pies

I'm usually not one for unique pizzas or ones out of the norm, but Salvatore's took me by surprise. My partner and I split a large, and on my half I got pepperoni, roasted garlic, basil, hot peppers, and ricotta cheese. It was fantastic. The crust is also amazing - they flip it right in front of you. A nice small 'bar' area to get a beer while you wait too. Overall great quaint local pizza place. Will definitely go again!

Had an amazing dinner here with some friends leaving town. The wait for a table was worth it, based on the fantastic food alone. I had a Greek style pizza, just absolutely delicious. Wonderful ingredients and really friendly staff. Cant recommend enough!

Great, can't-miss, Neapolitan-style pizza, among the best in Madison. Trendy vibe; efficient, courteous staff; small, thoughtful beer list. Dining room is very small, so make a reservation or arrive early.

This spot has some really awesome pizza pie! I recommend picking up yours and bringing it home, or elsewhere, to enjoy it, as the interior is small, and can be very noisy. I guess some people like that, I'm not one of those. Especially for those who like a thin and crisp crust, you won't be disappointed with the creativity and craftsmanship that goes into each and every pie they pull out of the oven. They also have a consistently good selection of regional craft beers.

Definitely a must try place when you are in Madison.

Salvatore's makes "New Jersey style pizza" aka "tomato pies". It's very similar to NYC pizza, and in fact I am not sure of the difference. I love Brooklyn pizza so this style is a hit for me.

What sets Salvatore's apart is they source all of their ingredients locally and they shape their menu around it. The difference is some unique menu items and pizza toppings, and very fresh tasting pizza.

I'm a pizza purist and typically just get pepperoni and sausage, which is a "Fat Uncle Tony" without the bacon. I also usually get the Bacon & Cheese Bread, which is exactly what you'd think and as good as you hope.

There are two locations, Madison and Sun Prairie, and the menus are different and I am not sure why. I am often confused when I go from one to the other.

Madison location has a very small dining room, limited parking, and is usually packed. Sun Prairie location is a little bigger and has never been packed when I visited.
