Very expensive for the amount of food you get. Entrees are priced separately and everything else is a side dish I guess..so it just adds to the bill. they serve their pasta in a bowl...the one you buy in the dollar tree store ...I have the same bowls for soup. We ordered a couple appetizers....4 people and they had to charge extra for the 4th person. Normally it would be for four people. Don't plan on going back. Yeah you will probably leave hungry. We shared two desserts for the four of us.Parking: Took a long time to find a park...

Our server (older man with glasses) was very friendly and accommodating. The garlic bread with ricotta was to die for and the apple cobbler was one of the best desserts I’ve had at any restaurant. I’m definitely coming back here with my fiancée.

I love Sal’s so much. It’s super close to home, has great food, and is very reasonably priced. I love their chicken parm—in my opinion, it’s probably the best chicken parm I’ve ever had in my life. They are kid-friendly—we always come with our kids and there are always other kids there eating and having fun, so I don’t feel nervous about bringing my children there as a parent. And I love that its location as much as anything. I can walk there from my house if I feel like it, especially in the summer. And it’s right next to the Castle park playground that my kids love to play in. So, I love to go there for dinner on summer nights after spending the afternoon walking through Quarton Lake and playing with my kids at the Booth Park playground. It is also great for takeout, and super convenient for dinner on weeknights when we don’t feel like cooking. The kids love the Mac and cheese. My wife loves the gnocchi. I love the chicken parm of course. They also have great affogato and dessert. The only note I would have concerns their wine selection. I would maybe broaden it a bit, but it’s not a big deal. All things considered, this place is an institution.

Went here for the first time last night for a date night. We were there for about 3.5 hours up until close. We were walk ins and our wait was about 15 minutes. Our server was amazing and attentive, the food came out reasonably quick, and the wine was solid. I had fettuccine Alfredo with chicken which was awesome. Their Mozerella en Carozza is a MUST HAVE. I'm not exaggerating. The shrimp scampi is also amazing.. I need to know what sauce they have those scampi in though, the flavor is so rich! I've eaten at the vast majority of Italian restaurants in the Detroit, Royal Oak, Ferndale, Rochester, Troy, and Birmingham areas. This place will be a great staple for my wife and I. The prices were incredibly reasonable as well. Can't wait to come back!

The food was gross! The marinara sauce tasted like it was out of a jar from a store. The garlic bread was no better than frozen garlic bread from Krogers. Marsala was bland! My stomach was upset for hours since eating there. My husband had the same issue. All around WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!

Family liked the food but we said my son I had an acid stomach problem and we said no tomatoes and they continued to give us tomatoes two times in a row. Horrible.

Good luck getting a table. The staff was very rude from the jump. The food was just okay. I definitely wouldn’t wait an hour and a half for the service, food, and bill we received. Soggy chicken parm and dry fusilli pasta. Also, the staff hit my partner with a table while trying to rearrange tables, twice, and laughed about it. We took the hint and declined desert and left, won’t be back
