The best thing I can say about Sals is that it's just as good as my favourite restaurant in my home town. Always a welcoming atmosphere and the food is tremendous. Going again on Friday and can't wait. The best

Tried here for my son's birthday and was very impressed. Food was excellent and really good value for the price. Waitress service was also excellent and a great buzzing atmosphere in a modest sized restaurant. Everyone loved all the food (all had garlic bread, pizzas and pasta. Will definitely recommend and return.

We had a large gathering for friends and family at Salvatores yesterday. Both the food and the service were brilliant. Everyone commented on how good the food was. We also appreciated not being rushed. The staff were great. Thank you for making it a very special occasion. We will be back again soon.

We were greeted by the happiest member of staff a restaurant could have, we had pre-booked so our table was ready and waiting. Absolutely scrumptious, delightfully delicious food, steaks melt in the mouth, pollo a la crème over flowing with chicken, beautiful fresh side salads, starters magnificent. Spaghetti perfection, we receive regular food checks, water offered too. We cannot fault this wonderful restaurant. Thank you for making our evening a happy, fun and altogether pleasurable and pleasant occasion.

It was nice to go and try somewhere different but I won't be going back. I had the ribs to start and they were far from slow cooked and still tough. Also, I'm pretty sure they had been microwaved but then put in a skillet that had been in the oven to give the illusion however they were just about warm, not even hot. I had the lasagne for main course and this was ok. I did have an irish coffee after but soon regretted it after seeing the bill and it costing £8!!!!!

We have eaten at this place on many occasions and the food was ok. The pasta is very oily. However, we wanted to have lunch today and they open at 12. We waited until 12:05 and no one opened the doors. The staff were just talking and not even bothered to open the door.

Salvatores has been a staple place to eat at in Penwortham for many years. However, after the sad passing of Salvatore himself, the family have invested in and rejuvenated this already great Italian and given it a new lease of life. The staff are warm and welcoming and the food is fantastic. Being a local resident, I have eaten here many times over the years and I can honestly say I gave never had a bad meal here. I am pleased to say that the changes have not negatively impacted this establishment but only enhanced it. A nod to Salvatore himself can be seen in the photographs on the wall and the heart and soul of the restaurant are still intact. However there is a modern freshness to the place providing a comfortable and welcoming environment that should see this place last for many years to come.

Best Italian food we’ve ever had! Sublime dishes that are generous portions. The service in here is impeccable we were sat tucked away in the corner however we never had an empty glass. Such a lovely vibe in the restaurant which makes this place a 10/10! Unfortunately we’re a good drive away from this place but would regularly make the 2hr round trip to come again! You must get the meatballs & carbonara WOW

Visited this restaurant recently. For me, a test of how good any business is depends on a number of factors.. The ambience, the greeting on arrival, the front of house staff, and, of course, the cusine served to the table have to all be as you expect when visiting such an establishment like this.. And here, it is just impeccable, in my opinion.. Shame we don't live in the area, we we're visiting friends nearby and this restaurant was their choice to eat in.. But definitely, if we're in the area again, we'll revisit this restaurant.. I have suggested that the establishment has business cards placed in view of guests so that people can take with them if they want to share with family and friends.. And if they had them, people like me who take the time to write posts and take pictures can place on a plate to show we have eaten here.. I would also suggest to the management that if you do have special dishes available on a given night, please place a board for guests to read or get staff to let diners know.. I absolutely loved the monkfish dish .. But it was a special.. Good job, I asked.. It was delicious and presented beautifully.. Capirno in carrozza( goats cheese caramelised..) Delicious and light..

One of a party of 7 last week. 2 hour table slots. Some disappointment - as waited approx 45 mins from ordering to food arriving. It was acknowledged that due to Christmas festivities, this could have been why, as the restaurant was full. One starter request was changed upon ordering - incorrect order was served. Staff were happy to oblige and resolve by replacing with the correct order. However, after a further 10 minute wait the incorrect order was presented once again. A good 55 mins of the 2 hours was used by waiting for food, which resulted in staff not offering or seeking orders for desserts, as the 2 hour window had passed by this time. Instead we were presented with the final bill. Sad, as on leaving we realised that no one else was waiting to be seated at our table for the next two hours. Due to the issues highlighted above, 2 stars have been deducted. On a positive note, food was exceptionally good. Very tasty and freshly cooked. Portion sizes were more than adequate too. The restaurant caters for vegetarians and other dietary requirements. There is also parking to the rear of the restaurant, which is helpful as parking to the front is limited. During the summer months there is the option to be seated outside at the front, which provides a canopy cover, ideal if warm but wet. As a group we did decide that we would return but not during busy periods. If you have not been it is worth a visit to try something from there extensive menu.

Lovely restaurant. I went with 5 friends for a celebration meal. The waitress was very nice and wasn't annoyed at us for taking the time to wonder what to have. The food that came out was lovely. I have the bruschetta which simple with fresh bread and tomatoes. My main was lovely the fresh vegetables and potatoes were divine. After 4 weeks of meat and potatoes this was a treat. Dessert was lovely. I had a cheesecake. We reserved for 530 and told we could only stay until 730. We were a little over this however they didn't push us or make us feel like we had to leave right away. The service was great and the atmosphere was lovely. Really enjoyed our last meal up in Lancashire. So thank you. Highly recommended. Only took this image as I was hungry 😂

Great food…period! starter - we had mussels , very fresh and the sauce were amazing. Meat ball, really great and the sauce made it when more better. Fried calamari, was okay but little bit too chewy in my opinion. Tomato and mozzarella salad- fresh tomato and great mozzarella was out of this world! Main- couldn’t fault it! Everything we try was really good. Spaghetti were perfectly cook and the sauce are out of this world! Pizza are also great that’s stone baked , you can really smell and taste the wood that they’re using. Risotto , really light and creamy but very felling. Over all the main are great but please keep in mind that it is pretty big. Stop by and try some. Let me know what you think 🤔

The only little moan was the price of 2 blackcurrant and sodas (half pints ) at £3.10 each , we had 2 each so equivalent to £6.20 a pint !, Other than that absolutely superb !.

We ordered some ‘gluten free’ pizzas here. 2 x pizzas. 2 x gluten free garlic breads and 1 x gf pasta. It was the worst pizza take away we have ever had. We ate about 1/4 of the food and we are not fussy at all. The base was so dry and chewy and ridiculously crispy it could have taken a filling out. The topping was not even decent. I ordered 1 x tomato and 1 x cheese garlic bread and we got 2 x cheese just to top it all off. The pasta was watery and tasteless. If you are a coeliac avoid here like the plague. They have absolutely no idea at all. They didn’t even want to try to isolate the food. I was told upon ordering that the pizzas would be in a shared oven which is fine. I understand that. We get that everywhere but I asked the girl are they put on a tray and I was told yes. Then I turned up and they were literally put in with the normal pizzas on the oven floor! Absolutely no concept of wheat cross contamination at all. I asked could they be put on trays and I was told no they were already in! I was met with attitude about how the whole oven will have wheat in the air. We are aware of that but at least TRY not to have the underneath of the pizzas where cross contamination mainly takes place isolated from where the wheat pizzas have been. Had the food at least been enjoyable I wouldn’t have gone out my way to write a review but it was awful. I can think of better ways to waste £35. We couldn’t even get half way through. It was terrible. I ended up making my partner egg and chips for tea it was that bad. They seriously need to just not even get involved in the gluten free pizza game. It is not their forte. The normal pizzas look good but their GF offering is inedible. Don’t lure people in under the impression you can do it. Take it off the menu and stick to what you know or buy in the bases like dominos and put them on trays!!

We visited this restaurant for the first time before we went to the cinema next door. We both had garlic bread, one plain and one with tomato. Mine with tomato was lovely except the middle was a bit undercooked. My partner had the chicken and chorizo paella which he said was just OK. I had the spaghetti bolognese which was tasteless and bland; really disappointing. Strangely we had to pay by bank transfer to a personal account which felt a bit dodgy to be honest. And the manager sits in a corner with his beady eye on everyone. Don't expect we will visit again.

Booked in advance for a Sunday evening - asked for a quiet table which we got - food was fabulous & service was swift without being pushy. Great selection of dishes on the menu - pretty much something for even fussy eaters. Will definitely return. Portion sizes just right - we ordered 3 per adult. Sorry no photos as I do not photograph my meals!
