Sal's By Victor, Italian pizzeria in Williamsburg, United States.
Sal's By Victor is a southern Italian-style pizzeria in Williamsburg, Virginia, serving hand-tossed pizzas and classic pasta dishes. The space is simple and family-friendly, with a menu focused on traditional cooking methods rather than modern trends.
The restaurant opened in 1974 under Salvatore, and in 1990 chef Vittorio Minichiello took over while keeping the original name. That decision gave the place a sense of continuity that lasted across decades.
The name of the place honors both Salvatore and Victor, the two figures behind the family business. Guests often notice that the mood at the table feels unhurried, in the way a shared Italian meal is meant to feel.
The restaurant sits on Richmond Road and is open every day of the week. Dining in, takeout, and delivery are all available options depending on your preference.
Since the mid-1990s, the restaurant has been regularly recognized as the top Italian spot in Williamsburg, which stands out in a city that attracts millions of visitors a year. The recognition comes from local residents and media alike, not just passing tourists.
