As a Central Florida resident, my husband and I are always keen on exploring areas and trying new to us food. Today, we decided to give Sal’s Deli at the Portofino resort a try.

I came for a family experience and only got a gastronomical nightmare, the pizzas are dry and the ingredients of poor quality. Hard bread, no fresh drinks but only canned. Also, the attitude of the employees leaves much to be desired, they are despots and of such poor quality to solve as their employees

This place is a hidden gem amongst so many other choices at Universal Orlando resorts. I’m from NJ and for me it is very difficult if not impossible to find brick oven pizza that is worthy to recommend to friends and family let alone write a review about. Sal’s pizza is Worthy. Price is extremely fair considering you’re at a theme park resort and outside of the pizza they have a huge assortment of beverages and deli items. We almost always get the Farm Pesto pie. Trust me you’ll appreciate this place!

If you’re thinking of ordering a Primavera pizza, a forewarning; the vegetables will be raw. It tasted as if they made a cheese pizza and, in the last few minutes, tossed on the toppings to warm them up.

While enjoying our stay at Loews Portofino at Universal Orlando, we decided to give Sal’s Market Deli a try for some pizza and sandwiches! We ordered a half cheese, half pepperoni pizza, Garlic Breadsticks Pomodoro, and another member of our party ordered a Chicken Parmigiana Sub with a Side Caesar Salad. Everything was freshly made to order, tasted fantastic, and came in good portion sizes. The breadsticks had a very slight crunch on the outside and were warm and perfectly chewy on the inside. The chicken parm Sub was enough for the person in our party to take half back to the room, and the pizza was perfectly sized for two people to split and have a few slices left over. The atmosphere is quaint and the service was friendly!

What a find. We were looking for somewhere quiet and cool to have a bite to eat after leaving the noise and bustle of the Park. Discovered way above average food, excellent friendly service all in a comfortable setting. Not too formal or fussy. #greatfind #lunch #Portofino #Universal #vacation

Located in Portofino Bay right on the harbor this place is amazing. Expensive food, but everything is expensive at these resorts. The food and service here is excellent tho. The cheese platter is really good. We also had pizza and mozzarella sticks. They were very very good too. They’ve got premade snacks and drinks too. So if you are in a hurry you can run in and grab something to go.

Such a hidden gem, fun and authentic decorations with amazing food. TRY THE ANTIPASTO SALAD. So good, with fresh high quality ingredients and a large portion size. Italian sandwich is excellent as well with superb meats and fillings as well as great bread accompanied by olive oil. Service was a standout as well, super friendly and attentive staff. We’ll be back, even during park days to grab a better lunch!
