I had a good sized salad to start and then the cheesesteak pizza from the staff's recommendation…read more It was very good. 14" was larger than I expected and piled with fresh hot toppings. The crust was very good too and held up well with the steak and peppers and cheese. The leftovers reheated well the next day too. Local family place was nice and not too crowded or loud. I will be back.

Quite a surprise! I don't have high expectations of pizza here in Delaware but I am willing to try…read moreit, you never can tell.... I was curious about Sal's and was in the mood for pizza. I saw they offered a Hawaiin Pie and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Each component of the pizza had flavor and although I love a thinner crust, this one was not too thick and definitely not doughy. Even my picky husband was pleasantly surprised. We are going back and bringing our friends who also love a good pizza! I saw the 3 star review that complained about a shrimp dish that had the tails still on I'm sorry, but that is completely normal for fine dining and casual restaurants! Use a fork and knife to cut the tail off! It's done that way for presentation and flavor

This place has good service, friendly staff, but the food is not great. The crab cakes are good,…read morebut not the best. We visited with a large party and we waited a while for our food. It was not hot and my steak had a very distinct metal taste that I have never encountered before. Their pasta was overcooked and the tomato sauce is not good. I have had a lot of Italian gravy in my life and I can always tell if a place is good by their sauce. The sauce (marinara) is very bland. Prego Four-cheese sauce is better. I also tried their Chicken Francese which was OK but not anything to rave about. I am always baffled when I see how busy they are. I guess they have a lot of regulars that are just happy with bland food. I would try another Italian option if you are looking for good Italian food.

First visit to this restaurant. My lady friend and I had reservations for two and the restaurant…read morewas quite busy. We both agreed it was the best Italian food we have had since moving to the Delaware Beaches area.

This is truly a hidden gem in DE!…read more I was visiting family over Mother's Day weekend, and we had reservations for 5pm (note: reservations are STRONGLY encouraged for prompt seating). As a Baltimore native, I'm used to the charm of the Little Italy restaurants; pulling up to La Dolce Vita had me scratching my head. It is truly not much to look at from the outside or inside, but-- as my grandmother always taught me-- never judge a book by its cover. I'm glad I didn't. The 2 polite servers were already busy when we got there, but we were seated quickly and provided with our drinks and table bread promptly. The menu is small yet cozy and familiar. The specials were relatively extensive, also (maybe for the holiday?). My family ordered 2 appetizer specials (escargot & clams casino)-- both were alright, but I'm also not a huge fan of either. Plate presentation was nothing fancy, but still looked very nice. With any entree, you receive a side salad-- a small display of fresh spring greens with tomatoes and cucumber. Don't be off-put by the packaged salad dressing. Our table ordered: lamb Ossobucco (special), veal & shrimp Marsala, and chicken parmigiana. Due to the increasing patrons, our main dishes took a little longer to come out, but it was nice to catch up with family. Again, the presentation of the main dishes were nothing gourmet, but hearty and clean. The Marsala has a sweet flavor, which is not usually how I make it, but it was still rich and tasty. I had the chicken parmigiana, and was surprised to see that the side angel hair pasta came with meat sauce-- I later realized that it's listed on the menu (oops!). Their pasta sauce is absolutely delicious, and I wish I ordered more for bread-dipping! Save room and pack up half of your meal, because you *WILL* want their delicious, homemade desserts. Our table shared tiramisu and a cannoli-- let me tell you, they put Baltimore's Vaccaro's to shame. The cannoli was probably the best I've ever had, and the tiramisu was so light and fluffy without an overwhelming coffee flavor. For 3 people (no alcoholic drinks), the total was about $150. This is incredible for the delicious food and large portions! Please please please go here for the best Italian food on the shore!

We stopped by Ava's Pizza and wow!! Detroit-style pizza is incredible! The crust was perfectly…read morecrispy on the edges, soft and airy inside, and that caramelized cheese border was pure magic. You can tell they use quality ingredients & make their pizzas fresh. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, too. If you're a pizza lover, you have to try Ava's. Easily one of the best Detroit style pizzas we've had in a long time

Service was great! Shout out to Grace!…read more The main dining room was very dark (imo) but once the street lights came on they illuminated the restaurant. We started with meatballs. I really enjoyed them. They weren't dry and were full of flavor. I would definitely order them again. We ordered two pizzas- I had the onion tart with pepperoni and my partner ordered pepperoni and sausage. Both pies were great! I was a little disappointed that they weren't out of Detroit style options the night we went but we were very satisfied with the thin crust.
