Salvo's

The spot, the food, and the reaction

Salvo's in Ridgewood, NY, is a place that started small, like, in a home kitchen, and now it's a full-on restaurant! They're famous for their sandwiches, but when dinner rolls around, it becomes a fancy Neapolitan restaurant. One of their most popular dishes is the eggplant parm sandwich.

They fry up eggplant and then bake it with cheese and basil. It's like a delicious Italian-American surprise! They also make this super slow-cooked Neapolitan ragù that takes forever, but it's totally worth it because it tastes amazing.

It reminds the owner of Sunday mornings, which is pretty neat. And get this, they even have a fried mortadella sandwich, which is like fancy bologna and was made famous by Anthony Bourdain. It's a hearty choice that people can't get enough of.

It's pretty cool how they take simple ingredients and make them taste so good. It's like magic, but with food!

With eggplant parm in the mix, this Ridgewood, NY stop gives hungry people a pretty tasty reason to show up.
