This place was excellent. Stopped in randomly because they had a spot for our family of four pre-NY Islanders game. Food was great, staff were even better. More food than we knew what to do with! (UPDATE: Solved! We just ate it later, as soon as we could!) We’re staying in Jersey this week but the hour-ish sojourn to UBS Arena — and more importantly, Salvatore’s — was worth the trip. We’ll do it again next time in NYC. Pros: • Pizza, pasta, garlic knots. • Complimentary wine – yes please. • Generous, delicious portions. • Fun atmosphere, great team (thanks, Kelly!) Cons: • Caught off guard with also complimentary cranberry/vodka shots. They may have been too yummy. ;)

First time at Churchill's. The wait staff were good, the food was good and we were served in a timely manner. However, it was SO noisy, it was difficult for the 5 of us to chat.
