The Oven Has Been Burning Since 1996
Our signature coal-fired brick oven reaches over 800 degrees to create a perfect crust and bold, authentic flavor. Every pizza is made fresh to order with quality ingredients, delivering the classic taste that makes Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizzeria so special.
The Margherita Is the Main Event
No toppings needed. Our plain Margherita is ordered more than everything else on the menu. Fresh mozzarella, crushed plum tomatoes, and a coal-fired crust that speaks for itself. This is the pie that earned the reputation.

What our guests are saying
Small family-owned restaurant, with one of the best pizzas I've ever tasted. Very clean, tasty and fast, friendly service. They also have glutten free. Worth the 30 minute drive. Located in beautiful area by the water. Cant wait to go back and try all toppings. We had mushroom, pepperoni, and buffalo chicken

OMG! Great Pizza! Walking in felt like entering a scene from a 90s American movie，a classic Pizza restaurant! The décor had that warm, old-times vibe. The pizza was super fresh and delicious, and the salad was really crisp and refreshing. Wonderful staffs! Lovely restaurant, definitely will comeback for more Pizza!

Fantastic place and great for families. Pizza was phenomenal! We also ordered a salad which was as fresh as can be. Highly recommended!

In my opinion this is the best pizza in NY (which makes it best in the world). Brick oven make the crust perfect, large pepperoni slices. Make sure to get a Greek salad with your pizza.

The Story Behind the Oven
Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizzeria traces its roots to Patsy's in Harlem, founded in 1933— one of the coal-fired ovens that put New York pizza on the map. That tradition landed in Port Washington in 1996 when Patsy’s great nephews built the first ever coal fired brick oven on Long Island. 30 years later, it’s still burning.
Thin Crust, Real Character
Every pie at Salvatore's Coal Oven Pizzeria starts with a thin, hand-stretched crust that goes straight into the coal oven at over 800 degrees. The result is what our clientele calls “perfection”.
