"Sals" as its generally known, mostly caters to Baby Boomers and Gen Xers, while Stella's customers are mainly Millennials.


Some Sals are "fully licensed", while all Stella's sites are.
Stella's is amazing. I still haven't had anything as good as their blood sausage special that day, and ours is genuine. Theirs was presumably frozen and imported. And their breads were just... ungh. It was exceptionally good breakfast food. It was good enough to have some NYT article ranting about this breakfast place in Brooklyn that's $300/plate for brunch.

Sal's is like a Denny's or Newfoundland Bagel Cafe. It's decent but it's... shouldn't be in the same list as Stella's. I always thought it was strange Sal's was in the middle of that cool bridge. It would be like having a Smitty's at the top of the CN Tower.
