Great Great Experience here. Even though its in a gas station, don't let that influence you about eating here! The ingredients were fresh. The food was balanced and flavorful, and the portions are the best ive ever had in a Mediterranean restaurant. Warning, they do fry in beef tallow (healthier than seed oils fyi). So there is a 100% chance of flavor in every bite.
On recommendation from a friend was told to try this place. WoW...this is the real deal ❤️❤️. I had the shawarma with gyro lamb and all associated pickled veg etc...garlic yoghurt dressing....incl pomegranate dipping sauce. Sensational will be back ..Thank you
This is one of Fairfields best kept secrets. The lasagna is delicious. Very generous portion size. I will be back to try other items on the menu. 3 thumbs 👍👍👍 up.
We read the reviews, so we decided to eat there. When we pulled up and realized it was in a gas station we thought it might not be good after all. But we went ahead and ate there anyway, and the food was amazing people were very nice, excellent choice!! I will definitely be back!!
Fantastic Mediterranean food! Don’t let the gas station location fool you. These folks know what they are doing and there’s a lovely food court to sit and eat in. Don’t pass by Sals on your travels. And don’t get confused with the other restaurant at this exit with a similar name. This is fabulous and fresh and delicious!
I have to say, I am so stinking excited to have found this place! And it’s in Fairfield of all places! I decided to try it out based on other reviews even though I was leery since they’re located in a convenient store. I was more than pleasantly surprised. The quality of the food AND quantity exceeded expectations. Very flavorful and legitimately authentic in comparison to authentic mediterranean restaurants I’ve eaten at. I believe I placed my order with the owner when I called it in and he was descriptive on all options available. My 6 and 7 year old loved it all as well. We will be regulars here. And it’s so nice to finally have some variety in Fairfield.
"Wow, Sal and his Wife have truly outdone themselves again! We were so sad when their previous restaurant, Padrinos, closed here in Fairfield, so we're absolutely thrilled that they've opened a new venture: Sal's Mediterranean Infusion. You can find them inside the Fuel Maxx, conveniently located right next to Dickey's. Sal is well known for his wonderful lasagna and meatball sandwiches, but he has knocked it out of the ballpark with his new Mediterranean menu, which is bursting with flavor! This is exactly the kind of fresh, unique eatery experience Fairfield needed that isn't the 'same ole thing'. My Gyro was one of the most flavorful I've had in a long time! The lamb meat was spiced to perfection, and the array of topping choices was exciting because everything was and tasted incredibly fresh. Seriously, just go try one; my words aren't doing it justice! My husband got the Shawarma Wrap, and that was also loaded with awesomeness! The thinly sliced lamb combined with the cheese of choice and the freshest toppings, then grilled to infuse all the flavors together, was perfectly done. We topped off the meal with a few Dolmas, which were excellent as well! They truly love to make your food experience the best! I cant wait to go back! We also wish Sal and his wife all the best and are so glad they are back in business!"
Sal's did not disappoint. Owners formerly owned Padrinos in Fairfield and we were all sad it closed. He got his second wind and opened up Sal's in the Fuel Maxx..... Few things can compete with the rich satisfaction of a well-made meatball sub, a perfectly spiced shawarma, or a cheesy, oven-baked lasagna. Each dish speaks to a different culinary tradition, yet all share a common goal: pure comfort. The meatball sub stood out for its tender, flavorful meatballs coated in a tangy tomato sauce and topped with melted mozzarella. The toasted bread added a nice crunch, holding up well under all that saucy goodness. The shawarma offered a burst of Mediterranean flavor — thinly sliced, marinated meat with hints of garlic, cumin, and lemon, all wrapped in warm pita. The balance between the savory meat and cool, creamy sauce was spot-on. Finally, the lasagna was indulgence in its purest form: soft pasta layers, slow-cooked meat sauce, and cheese that stretched with every forkful. Comfort food perfection. Together, these three dishes highlight how different cultures turn simple ingredients into something deeply satisfying.
