Bar Salotto offers authentic Neapolitan pizza with perfectly charred crust alongside thoughtfully selected craft beers. The lively patio hosts families and locals alike, especially during weekend live music sessions and value-packed happy hours.
Bar Salotto strikes that rare balance between family-friendly and genuinely cool. The patio, while admittedly facing a busy street, becomes an afterthought once you're sipping one of their thoughtfully selected craft beers and diving into what might be the best Neapolitan pizza this side of Chicago. The crust has that perfect char that makes pizza purists weep with joy.
The outdoor space buzzes with a mix of families and trendy locals, especially during weekend afternoons when the live music kicks in. Happy hour here is a legitimate steal for the quality you're getting. Yes, you might circle the tiny parking lot a few times before finding a spot, but that's just the universe making sure you've worked up an appetite.
Come for the pizza that will ruin lesser pies for you forever, stay for the lively but somehow still cozy atmosphere that makes an ordinary Tuesday feel like a celebration in Naples.
