    Maggie was fantastic. Music was superb. Weather was relaxing & the POMPANO was the best I ever had. Please put Pompano on your menu. Can’t wait to return.

    It was lovely to be out after the hurricane but the beef carpaccio was not fresh, off color and covered with arugula. For an Italian restaurant we were told the only pasta available was spaghetti and I’m not convinced this was home made pasta. Would love to give the benefit of the doubt after Milton.

    The melon with prosciutto appetizer was very tasty. Ravioli with ricotta and spinach was a bit light on ricotta, but tasty. Grilled calamari was good. Wine is overpriced like all restaurants around here.

    Out first but definitely NOT last visit to Bevardi's Salute. We opted for an inside table. Our server, Eni, was very attentive and so sweet. We stared with their special burrata cheese served with prosciutto and a melon wedge over arugula and roasted peppers. Absolutely delicious. The potato gnocchi were homemade and literally melt in your mouth, a rarity in most Italian restaurants, served with a delicious tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella garnish. We finished with their affogato. It was a wonderful dining experience and we will definitely visit again. Nearby parking is very convenient. Highly recommend Bevardi's Salute for an outstanding dining experience.

    Excellent from start to finish. A very pretty external seating area and several cute areas inside. It was quiet, but it was one day post-hurricane, so to be expected. Really good food, excellent service, and a very relaxed approach to the meal. Great - we'll be back!

    The food was delicious, service was excellent, however, the main dining area was a bit loud. If the weather was a bit better, we would have opted to dine outside. A nice selection of quality Italian cuisine at affordable prices.

    Our dinner was perfect, as was the entertainment out on the patio. However, we were not thrilled that when the bill came, only then was it made known that Bevardi's passed on the credit card processing fee(s) to the consumer. It's not a terrible inconvenience, but they should notify their patrons ahead of time that that is their new policy. It wouldn't have occurred to me to bring $200 in cash for our dinner to save 3% on our bill.

    Salute is a great choice for fresh delicious Italian dining. Four of us enjoyed gnocchi, lasagna, chicken, and salmon. Good prices and excellent service too!
