A real treat! The food was amazing and the service was great. Felt like the owner really cared about the restaurant and the customers.

The food was fantastic - I could eat the roasted cauliflower appetizerevery day! Service was perfect. Atmosphere was lively. We had to lean forwardacross our table for two to hear, but that added to the intimacy.

Great food, great service. The Parmesan was really good. Best Manhattan I have had in a long time - I had two!

Great food, great service, only complaint, too dark inside, uncomfortable seating at table and outside. Not impressed by the decor or the fact that you can see directly into the kitchen from the bar.
Service kinda sucks, very slow & not super friendly (didn't smile). We ordered arancini as an appetizer & one of the centers was cold, the cheese on the inside wasn't melted either. Funny thing is they took at least 15 minutes to come out after ordering & then wasn't even cooked through. Entrees were ok, at least they were heated through. Wild Tomato a few doors down had never disappointed so I'll stick to eating there or Fish Taco.

This is a nice quaint resturant located in a strip mall with outdoor dining. We were seated fast. Our server was new but he was friendly and tried hard. He made good suggestions and knew the menu. The cocktails were aces! One of the best dirty martinis I've ever had and I'm a martini connoisser. The food was delicious and well prepared. This restaurant is a gem and the price point is excellent. A great value for the portion size and food quality. I can't wait to come back again when I'm in the DC area.Parking: Large parking lot

I hardly write reviews. But I had to voice my opinion of how Sal's Italian Kitchen has gone WAY downhill over the past few months. Ironically, not long ago, I thought of Sal's as not only my favorite Italian restaurant, but one of my favorite restaurants overall, regardless of ethnicity. The past few times we've ordered (take out), we've found the food quality to be deteriorating. For example, my favorite dish, chicken parmigiana, has been dry for the last ~ 3 orders. Then, recently, when I was having friends over and had catering from Sal's, they forgot to include the dipping sauces for the fried calamari. When I called, they said I had to come pick it up, despite that I had a house full of people and the error was on their part (which they did not dispute). But last night was literally the final straw. We ordered food for three - two chicken parms and an order of Pappardelle Bolognese. I personally picked up the food, got home, and found that I had an order of Branzino. Not only was this not ordered, but the person who took my order by phone confirmed what I had actually ordered (and heard by the two other people in my home, as I was on speakerphone). I give up. I'm done with Sal's, and I'm actually sad (and yes, frustrated) about it. Assuming someone from Sal's reads this, I hope you guys get your act together. It used to be great. Now it is mediocre at best.
