Unique pizzeria in Greenpoint serving traditional Neapolitan pies with a side of cultural confusion. It's not quite fusion, but there's randomly a (somewhat bland) cacio e pepe pie with salsa verde and guacamole on the menu. I tend to think they should have embraced the concept more wholeheartedly if that was their intent, which the name arguably hints at.The classic Margherita pizza was definitely the better option of the two we ordered, but the crust did not achieve the ephemeral chewiness that I would think is the goal.

I'd rate Salsa Pizzeria three and a half stars.We shared the salami pizza. Dough was chewy with not many visible air pockets. Undercarriage held up and center didn't need to be flipped up. Cornicione was the chewiest part. The pizza baker did a fantastic job of getting a char on the bottom and along the edge. Unfortunately, I didn't get much flavor from the char. Not sure if the was a result of what was used to heat the oven or if the oven was just on the younger side. I feel the char would have been phenomenal under other circumstances, so big kudos to the baker. Toppings wise, the salami stood out the most. Wasn't getting much from the sauce, cheese, or basil. There was one single occupancy restroom. Both indoor and outdoor seating. On the casual side with a couple families dining in. We had a nice experience, but I think Salsa Pizzeria is in a tough spot with some incredible competition nearby.

First thing I had in NYC this trip. so damn good. Fired quickly with that chewy Neapolitan dough I love. Saw the collar they did with the tacos spot and discovered them. Odd name for a pizza spot but it's great.

This unassuming spot does Neapolitan pizza right. Came here for dinner and ordered the napoletana pizza, ricotta bruschetta, and the pesto pasta. - the pizza (5/5): this was done right. The crust was perfectly cooked, the ingredients were well balanced (they did not skimp on anchovies like many other places), and overall it was a very good pizza.- the pesto pasta (4/5): perfectly cooked, the burrata added the extra umph. Overall a very solid dish.- ricotta bruschetta (4/5): it's hard to go wrong with ricotta and honey. This is more of an appetizer (or possibly a dessert tbh). I thought the bread could have been a bit warmer/bigger but at $6, don't miss this. The space is primarily for take out but there are a few tables nestled upstairs and outside. Would stick to parties less than 4. I saw they have Tuesday specials of buy 1 pizza get one for $5 so looks like I will be returning!

so good!!! got a rec from a friend to check this place out because i told her i loveeee Neapolitan pizza and was on the hunt for a good one, and boy am i glad i tried this spot! also, greenpoint is such an underrated neighborhood. its adorable! reminds me of west village but WAY cooler with vintage stores, unique markets and so many great gems spanning all the cuisines. the staff here were so welcoming and sweet. we sat indoors and shared a basil pesto pizza, and they made us feel so comfortable and not rushed when it was just us two in the space. we stayed there for 2 full hours and caught up. i loved it so much i went back today to get a gift card for some friends who are moving to nyc soon! thanks salsa :)

Very good pizza margherita in Greenpoint! Everything was mostly spot on, the dough and sauce were great. Cheese was decent. It was regular mozz. I definitely prefer buffalo mozz over regular, so next time may try the "Regina" pie, which is their classic margherita with buffalo mozz. Wish I'd known about it before! The appetizer of mushroom bruschetta took this from 5 to 4 stars for me. It was not too flavorful and the mushrooms had a "canned mushroom" consistency iykyk...Will come back for the Regina and will report back!

The food, service and ambiance are fantastic in this Italian shop that serves pizza and pasta while using the meats from Taqueria Ramirez. The prices are also very affordable for Greenpoint. Will definitely come back.

Came here on a break in between some Muay Thai fights up the street. We had a pretty large group and wanted to dine in so they put us upstairs on the take out side. They seemed pretty busy and we had a group of six people so it took a while (understandable). The pizza flavors were delicious I got the funghi but the dough/crust itself needed way more time in the oven, it was soft and floppy and without folding it and the support of my hand all the toppings would've all fallen off. Pizza was a little pricey but I know it's nyc/brooklyn so that's whatever, convenient location, and flavors are there..would probably eat again out of convenience but ask them to cook it a little longer.

Came across this pizzeria when we were on our way to a bar! We got some pizza to share and pasta. Overall it was good but not amazing. Maybe it was the pizza we got. The inside is very cute. Overall was not so impressed.
