Went out to celebrate Mothers’ Day at Sasso and it was the most perfect experience! Service was amazing, staff was so kind. And food and beverages were wonderful! We got a complimentary beverage as well to celebrate the occasion. Couldn’t recommend Sasso more! :)

Had a great night at Salso Italian. I ordered the burrata and the gnocchi — both absolutely delicious. The service was friendly and super attentive (almost too attentive at times, but that’s hardly something to complain about!). The wine list was impressive, and while the place was a little on the noisy side, I actually enjoyed the buzz and lively atmosphere. Not a spare seat in sight, which says it all. I’d definitely go back!
