Cooking Channel chef and restaurateur Sal Basile has opened Sally Boy's in Red Bank, New Jersey, according to a press release.

The Italian chef, a co-founder of Artichoke Basille's Pizza, is the star of the Cooking Channel's "Pizza Cuz" and "Pizza Masters" shows. The pizzeria is named after his son and pays homage to Sal's Childhood nickname.

"We set out to create something truly different, so we started with something truly amazing. We're more than a pizza joint - we're an experience," Basile said in the press release. "My vision was to create a marketplace of Italian foods that is considered the best of the best — the finest pizza fired in a state-of-the-art Ferrari-red Castelli oven hand-made and shipped directly from Italy; a grab-and-go menu that is fresh and unique each day; gourmet coffee; the freshest baked goods made on premises; Italian specialties that our diners talk about for days; and, of course, the best pizza that our guests have to see and taste to believe."

The restaurant specializes in classic Italian pizzas like: the classic Margherita; Bella's Broccoli Rabe; Nonna's Eggplant pie; Concetta's Chicken; Calabrian Sweet Heat and a wide selection of white and other pies. Guests can also enjoy specialty rolls, strombolis, burgers, hot dogs and cheese steaks.

It's open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
