Salvatore's

This article is about the present pizzeria. For an earlier Salvator's on Carraway Boulevard, see Salvatore's Drive-In.

Salvatore's Pizza and Pasta is a local chain of pizzerias and Italian restaurants founded by Salvatore Bambinelli. The original Salvatore's, which opened in Vestavia Hills in 1984, was a full-service Italian restaurant.

His wife, Bo and daughter, Christina, became partners in the business. Two others children, Sofia and Zac have also worked in the restaurants.

In 2008 Salvatore opened a new full-service location, called Bambinelli's Italian Café at 2031 Cahaba Road in English Village. That location was converted back to a "Salvatore's" in early 2012 and closed by mid-2014.

In July 2019 Bo Bambinelli closed the Trussville location due to staffing shortages.
