What can I say, the deal that was two courses for £10.95 was amazing. The portion sizes were very generous. I thought the starter was the main it was that big. The flavours were fantastic. They really pulled out all the stops, the staff were very attentive and friendly. 5 stars 🌟 🤩 ✨️

Absolutely great food and fab value for money. Been to this restaurant many times over the years and it is always delicious food. Can highly recommend the PilPil Prawns. Tonight they had a deal on with 2 courses for £11. You can’t even get a takeaway pizza for that price! The portions were normals size and all was delicious. I have already booked a table to come back next week.

Food was lovely from taste (compliments to the chef) but portion wise paying £14.95 for spaghetti gamberetti you would expect more than 3 prawns.. other than that it was a great tasting meal and evening

Planned a catch-up with two ex work colleagues for Saturday lunch .First into the restaurant and placed at the window with a lovely breeze blowing in and bathed in sunshine. We decided to have some warm breads with oils and some garlic bread whilst perusing the menu.The staff were so attentive and masked.Decided on the 3 course set menu for £14.99.Salmon, soft cheese, salad and bread . Going out on a limb but probably the best starter I have had at any restaurant in the last 10 years!!!We then had the beef with hand cut chips. Never had more tender, tastier meat ...... ever! Even beat my favourite restaurant in Nice.Finished off with the warm chocolate fudge cake and fresh strawberry ..... AMAZING .We all agreed this was the best experience we had in a restaurant since the the start of the 2020 lockdown and can't wait to go back .Spent a lifetime staying in some of the world's top hotels with business, this blew the best of the best away .Attention to detail from the amazing staff and flawless food from start to finish.Beat some of the Michelin star restaurants I have had the pleasure to dine in!!!!!

The customer service at this restaurant is possibly some of the worst I’ve experienced. The staff are rude and unwelcoming, just want you in and out. It’s a shame as the food is utterly delicious but ruined by the horrendous service received.

Really good food and drink. Excellent service. I had Pil Pil prawns, while my family had bruchetta and black pudding starters. All delicious. My spicy chicken pizza had just the right blend of chillies and garlic with a tikka style spicy chicken. The ice cream with amarreto and coffee was very strong tasting but lovely. All in all, a great night.

They went away and after a bit of juggling they managed to fit us in - Result ✅ When we arrived, a tad early we were shown through to the very comfortable bar area and were provided with drinks and a great menu to look over. We were shown to our table and our order was taken, the staff were attentive, friendly and welcoming. BB was hilarious and great fun.

Love this restaurant, food is always so fresh and tasty and the owners know how to run a business really well. Last time me and the missus went the staff were unbelievably rude! Came in and we said we had a table booked and the staff member didn't say to follow, she just walked away and pointed at a table and didn't say anything else. I appreciate that she may have been having a bad day, but a good bit of customer service isn't so hard. The food was lovely as always, just a soured experience due to grumpy staff.

We went here late Saturday afternoon for a family meal. Let's get the boring stuff out of the way first- completely COVID compliant and safe. Easy booking. From the moment we arrived the service was excellent. The menu was comprehensive and the specials in particular caught our eye. The food was delicious especially the aranicini and the ragu with horseradish mascapone. The thing that really made the visit special was the was the waiting staff, they were brilliant with my 3 year old daughter by really making her feel special. I know it sounds like such a simple touch but the waiter using her name after he heard us use made her day and writing Scarletts Disney Pizza Box on her doggy bag after she told him we were having a movie night was a lovely touch.I know I've spent time talking about the staff but the food deserves just as much praise as it was truly lovely. 6 out of 5 from me, and I'm very picky

Ambience was good and due to this stayed longer for some drinks. Zhora heard it was my birthday whilst we were there and put a candle into my dessert and sang happy birthday.

Returned again after not visiting for a while and immediately remembered why we hadn't been back for so long. Food really nice and good value so the kitchen is spot on. It's the front of house that is let down by the female manager or head waitress? As we are obviously not regulars we were treated with disdain and made to feel extremely unwelcome! She was snappy on arrival, questioning the booking; short and rude when taking the order and almost chucking the food on the table when it eventually arrived. We contrasted this with the service and welcome given to people arriving after us who were clearly known to her. We remembered the curt and rude attitude from the last time we visited so obviously not a one off. Real shame really as the other servers were polite and friendly as was the older gentleman who arrived as we were finishing our meal and who took our plates away. Food was nice but we would rather spend our money somewhere where they value new customers!

We reserved a table for 5.45pm, thank goodness; this is a very popular restaurant. There were 6 adults and a two year old in our party, and we were accommodated well. We chose the two course set menu - starter and main, which is priced by the main course - from about £12 to £15. There was also a couple of specials included. The children's menu was good and well priced - ie. not classic chicken nuggets and chips! Everyone enjoyed their meals and the total bill including drinks and a 10% tip came to £120. Portion sizes were large, and some in our group struggled to finish their plates! The food was fresh, served quickly, and the waitress was friendly and attentive. A good all round experience. My only criticisms with Italian restaurants in general is that they have very limited beer selections - including the obligatory Peroni - Sale Pepe kept to this tradition.

My family and I regularly have a meal here and since the refurbishment I can honestly but sadly say I’m disappointed. Our order was taken very quickly, nothing complicated, I’d only asked for a marguerita with ham, which only arrived as a marguerita, my meal took a further 30, by then the rest of the family had eaten theirs , when my order arrived it had a strange hollow in the middle, with just a few strands of ham and the base wasn’t cooked properly, the pizzas arrived on a wooden chopping board I, hate this as it is a breading ground for germs, and your own pizza cutter, I hope this novelty wears off as the pizza was too big for the board, I didn’t complain at the time as it was the in the Christmas holidays and they were busy. But please sale Pepe loose the chopping board and pizza cutter it’s a gimmick you don’t need

Booked this as a surprise for my Mam and step dad as a birthday present. They absolutely loved the food and said service was generally fantastic. However very loud and very busy - if you’re not a fan of that they wouldn’t recommend. My Mam was also disappointed when she received her Eaton Mess as upon receiving it, it had no meringue in it!! When querying this, she was told quite abruptly by a waitress that the meringue had “dissolved” and there was nothing she could do about it. Other than this issue, they both thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend overall.

Mixed feelings. It was a busy weekday night, we waited almost an hour for our mains. There was lots of staff but no one reassured us we hadn't been forgotten, or asked if we wanted more drinks we all had empty glasses for over half an hour. My partner eventually asked if our food was on the way as it was 9pm by this point and most other diners had finished there desserts, no apology for delay, but food came out then. No one asked how are meal was. Food was good when it came, we had been hoping for dessert but we'd sat so long we were past it by the time we had mains. I can understand waits during busy periods if staff are honest about it rather than just avoiding the table

My friends and I visited Sale Pepe for dinner tonight. Despite the snowy weather the restaurant was busy but we were shown to a table immediately. The ambience was pleasant and the food and service was excellent. I love this restaurant and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Thank you to Madge and the team for making our night special for our daughters birthday. We had various starters from the special menu including pil pil prawns and chicken kebabs which were very tasty as usual. For mains my husband can’t go past the Sofia pizza with proper chips and we had penne arrabbiata with chicken. It was a lovely touch that Richard brought some birthday cake and Madge took our order for drinks on the house. You can’t go past this place for quality and lucky to have on our doorstep.... thanks

Our party of 17 visited this homely restaurant on Christmas Eve and, once again, we were not disappointed. The service was excellent and highly efficient as the restaurant was almost full. The menu is well established at Sale Pepes and the food is always delicious. And always good value.

We're regulars at Sale Pepe and the food is always excellent quality. The service is also very good with a warm smile from start to finish and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. Sometimes it's pretty lively especially if there's a birthday.

Booked a table as we were staying locally not really sure what we would find in such a small town. To our surprise we found a modern, smart restaurant looking very Italian. The menu was extensive with a good supporting drinks lists. The 2 courses for 9.95 turned out to be the popular choice of our party

Absolutely fantastic meal & service for a party of 11 people. The food was some of the best Italian food we have eaten and the service was first class. Shelley our main waitress was super helpful and attentive, she’s a real asset to the business. We would 100% recommend and return. Thankyou for a lovely evening.

Friendly staff and service is usually pretty quick. The pate starter is always good and the pizza and pasta portions are big. Good value for money. Will be back again soon

We go here as a group on a regular basis and always have great food. The staff are friendly and good fun. We go as a group and it's never too loud, we can always hear the conversation. Prices are reasonable and food is good quality. Highly recommend Deanos. Already booked for our next meet up

Great food and very friendly staff. Always busy but never booked and they find us a table everytime. The calzones are huge and the chocolate orange cake is very nice indeed.
