Sal's Trattoria is a beloved neighborhood spot known for its delicious Italian food and friendly, attentive staff. The menu offers a variety of top-quality dishes, including calamari, risotto, rigatoni, chicken parm, and favorites like bone marrow, fettuccine carbonara, and branzino. Guests often enjoy the cozy, homey atmosphere with warm lighting that creates an inviting, intimate vibe reminiscent of Italy. To dine comfortably indoors with air conditioning, reservations are recommended, as service can be slow but friendly. The shrimp in dishes like the spicy shrimp Bucatini and shrimp martini are cooked perfectly, though some feel the flavor could be improved. A highlight for many customers is the cheesecake, which is light, flavorful, and not overly rich, earning high praise. Many visitors appreciate the great service from staff like Francisco, making for a memorable and relaxed dining experience. Overall, Sal's remains a favorite local Italian restaurant where guests love returning for good food and a welcoming atmosphere.
