    Sal’s is a beautiful spot for authentic Italian fare. I have been here three times, and have yet to be disappointed by any dish. You can enjoy conversation and they have good reasonable wine. The space is the perfect size to retain a sense of intimacy. I’m so happy there is a restaurant of this caliber in the neighborhood.

    We found this wonderful restaurant when we first moved to the area. It has become our favorite restaurant for date night! The Salmon is amazing and we love the Chicken Parmesan and Pastas. - But the New Year's Eve menu was spectacular!! We had the best Filet we have had in years! And the Shrimp Risotto was perfection! Hope to see these two added to the regular menu!! Highly recommend Sal's!

    We went NYE as a group of four and had an amazing meal! We ordered half off the NYE menu and half off the regular menu. We had 4 apps and 4 entrees and ALL of them were great! We will definitely be back!

    The trout is unreal. The pasta homemade. Outstanding food and service. This was our second time and it’s now one of our favorites.
