Truly one of the best restaurants we have ever gone to. Amazing service, and even better food. We tried 6-7 different plates each better than the next. Super cozy and family oriented inside as well. Cannot wait to go back and recommend to others!! read more

Service was good! Wine was great. The food came pretty quick. I loved those egg rolls. I can't remeber the name but if I remember correctly it's under spring rolls even tho it's an egg roll lol. Either way I enjoyed them with the sauce. The pizza was good as well just needed a little salt. I would go back! It's a small location. The bar literally can only fit 2 people. read more

The best eggplant rotini on Wall Street ! I've been going there a long time and coming back to town recently. I had to go back. I'll be back again this week. read more

Food is awesome, owners are extremely nice, portions are perfect and the prices are very fair.

Sal D's is great! Been around for quite some time and always get a good meal here. If you're looking for a good red sauce joint with great specials this is the place. Not pretentious at all! read more

I was pleasantly surprised. Growing up in an Italian family from Brooklyn I'm pretty spoiled my whole life with great Italian food so I'm a tough critic. For appetizers we had baked claims and the eggplant rollatini. The eggplant rollatini was cooked perfectly. It was light and the breading didn't fall apart. The baked claims was incredible that I had to dip the bread in that delicious oreganata and I usually don't do that in restaurants but it was too good. My main course was the spaghetti bolognese and I was relieved that there wasn't some sort of vegetable in there to give it a sweeter taste like peas or carrots as they do in some other restaurants. If I have one critique is that there was a lot of meat and I would of liked to taste more of his sauce because every Italian cook needs a signature sauce and I wanted to taste more of his. The restaurant is a little pricey but the portions are generous and the food is fantastic. When you sit down in a nice place with great food in a bougie area that has linens you have to expect to pay but in my opinion worth it. Will definitely go back and I will make sure to make room for the tartufo! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I've coming here (and it's prior names) for 35 years and it never disappoints. Tonight, my girlfriend had the blackened salmon special and I had the risotto de mare special. Both were fabulous, not surprisingly. Ended up taking some leftovers home for lunch tomorrow. Congrats for staying one of the best restaurants in Huntington read more

Brought in several dishes for a small party of 8 and everything was excellent. Extremely good!

Always good food. Normally I'm eating catered food at a party. Mush say it is always delish. Thank you to all my friends for always using them for your catering. lol. read more

Another fabulous experience at this restaurant. Excellent service Reasonable prices Fantastic food!!! read more

Good food, excellent service, nice ambiance and fair prices. We always have a good meal there.

We came for dinner for my mom's 90th birthday and it was lovely. The restaurant gets very busy and only takes reservations for large parties so arrive early. The restaurant is on the small side and can get noisy when it's full. Our waiter was very nice and was attentive but not intrusive which was excellent. The food was excellent. Everyone really enjoyed their meal. The portion sizes are very large so go hungry. The only issue was dessert. We were given the dessert menu and we ordered. The waiter came back and said what we ordered was not available. He then made a suggestion to my mom what to have because it was her birthday. Well he came back and said that choice was not available either! Normally this would not have been an issue but it was my mom's 90th birthday. Turns out there were only 3 things available on the dessert menu. We ordered the cannolis. Unfortunately they were not as good as an Italian bakery cannoli. The dessert and the issue we had with the dessert wasn't enough to change my rating or my recommendation of this restaurant. It's a very good local Italian choice. read more

This would have been 4-5 stars, if not for the rushed feeling at the end of the night. Came here last night with a family member that I very rarely get to see between 7 and 7:30pm. It was definitely busy, but the service was great and the food was wonderful. Was very happy with the experience. That was until 8:30pm rolled around. Granted, we did not realize the restaurant closed at 8:30pm - we were so tied up in catching up, and honestly would have guessed a modest 9pm closing time if we had been thinking about it. No joke, starting right at 8:32pm, someone was peeking around the corner or coming up to the table and staring at the bill every 30 seconds to 2 minutes. When my family member went to the restroom for all of a minute and a half, the bill was checked on twice. That's the only reason we realized maybe this restaurant was closing. We still had wine left and weren't interested in chugging it, but we were conscious that we should head out shortly. The bill was checked on, subtly and not so subtly, no less than 6 times between 8:32 and 8:45. That is not an exaggeration. We grew up working in the restaurant industry and we understand everyone wants to go home at the end of the night, and the frustration of people staying WELL past close (especially on a Sunday), but this was literally 10-15 minutes past close and the bill was already dropped. There were other tables still in the restaurant. The hovering was unnecessary. We were so put off by this uncomfortable behavior. Don't think we'll try it again here. read more

What a great place. Had the antipasto, spicy calamari, and backed clams as appetizers. All were excellent. The montepulciano wine was great. I ate the veal marmalade and my friend had pasta in a red sauce with meatballs. Both were delicious. The service was perfect and the decor is of an old school Italian restaurant. read more

I called to make a reservation for dinner for me and my wife for her 60th birthday they told me they won't take reservations for two people. I told them that i was a regular customer and i was taking my wife to a show at 7pm and wanted to come in at 5pm they refused. not that the place is anything special other then convenient . It was my wifes 60th birthday you would think they could make an exception but they didnt care so they lost me and my friends as customers . That is just bad customer service considering the food is just ok read more

We picked up dinner on Friday night for the 2nd time this month. The first time was SO much better! The 2nd time was less than mediocre for me but okay for the BF. I ordered Zuppe de pesce from Mike who answered the phone. He was very nice. I told him gluten free thinking they might add a piece of bread. I called back and got a very cranky woman and reminded her to please make sure it's gluten free. I think she heard me wrong and changed my order to gluten free pasta with seafood. I ordered shrimp scampi pasta for BF and he liked it, hence the 3 stars instead of 2 Their gluten free pasta is sticky and gummy and they forgot to add extra marinara as requested. Too many calamari rings and not enough seafood. I had a few bites of leftover pasta last night then threw the rest in the trash. Very disappointing!!! read more

Food is great but I recently called to check how busy it was. I was told not busy at the time I called. 10 minutes later arrived and was told 50 minute wait. I walked out pretty annoyed that they deceitfully lured me there so I could wait. They don't take reservations for party of three. read more

Came for dinner, food was good, I was excited that they had gluten free pasta, i ordered penne vodka and it was really good. Not your typical gluten free pasta which is heavy, highly recommend! read more

Sal D's - Gluten Free Penne - Italian Near Me - Huntington, New York

One of my my favorite Italian restaurants. We certainly have an abundance of them but for me Sal D's is always constitently above the rest. I recognize that we all have different tastes & opinions but you owe it to yourself & make your own decision but I don't think that you will be disappointed. You may not agree with me that it's our best Italian restaurant but I'm confident that you will agree that it certainly ranks in the top three. enjoy, Jack read more

Best Italian food in Huntington, maybe even on Long Island, maybe even in NY State, maybe even in the world. Anything in their Oreganata style is my favorite, but everything you order is going to be good. My wife is obsessed with their Rigatoni Alla Vodka- simple dish made to perfection. Don't sleep on the bar pies, salads and baked clams. Tiramisu desert is very good. We also get catering from them for parties a few times a year, always a crowd favorite. The staff has been working there a long time and is excellent. read more

Again another fabulous meal here at Sal D'S Started with artichoke arugula salad and had chicken parmigiana with a side of rigatoni ala vodka sauce. The staff is always amazing! Nicely decorated!Definitely going back!! read more

This restaurant is a classic neighborhood place that is so comfortable and enjoyable to dine at. The atmosphere is simple and elegant and the food is outstanding. They have the kind of menu that is interesting and creative while being affordable and gives you the feeling of family. There are classic Italian dishes to die for like their lasagna and then they also put out a fantastic Osso Bucco and everything in between. The staff is awesome and friendly and you can tell that they actually like each other. A must try in the town of Huntington for dine in and also take out. read more

Sal D's is the most underrated Italian place in Huntington. Been coming here for what seems like decades. It was my late mother's favorite restaurant period and she's been gone 10 years, so their wonderful food always reminds me of her. It was a tradition for my wife's family too, my father-in-law is a big fan so Sal D's is always a good choice for our family dinners. The specials are always great. Other classics that never disappoint: calamari arrabbiata, eggplant rollatini, chicken bisentino, sole francese. read more

We've been going to Sal D's for countless years - it's our favorite restaurant in Huntington Village. The food and service are consistently excellent - we've never had a disappointing meal here. Personal favorites are Fried Calamari Arrabbiata, Linguini in white clam sauce, Shrimp Parmigiana, Branzino al Forno, and Chicken Piccata. Im getting hungry!! read more

Came in on a Sunday night, open later than other Italian restaurants in the area. Very low-key ambience, loved how private it felt. Ordered the eggplant rollatini. The sauce was flavorful not watery. It was ricotta within it and melted mozzarella on top. The eggplant was perfectly cooked and melted in my mouth. I ordered it as my main dish since I wasn't very hungry and it was perfectly filling. The Mediterranean Paloma was the best Paloma I've ever had. The grapefruit and tequila was perfectly balanced and was not sour. My friend had a glass of Malbec. The glass was huge so, it was a wealthy pour. They also had the pesto gnocchi which they loved. The serving is not very large. Overall, would come again. read more

In a quaint traditional Long Island town of Huntington where one would find an abundance of restaurants and retail stores resides Sal D's casual Italian Restaurant. Sal D's with an unassuming ambience welcomes you at the front door as if you are visiting friends at their home. They have a small full bar as you enter to the right and a dining room with traditional wood chairs and tables that can be a noisy when crowded. Sal D's serves traditional Italian dishes with menu specials on most occasions. One could also find on the menu various bar pies such as thin crusted Margarita pizza and zuppa di clams which I will order on my next visit. With the waitress recommendation, I ordered the bronzino in a piccata sauce with artichokes that was not on their menu. The dish was wonderful and I was very appreciative that they accommodated me with a special meal request. Our party also order the artichoke & burrata as an appetizer long with glasses of wine. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate layer cake along with coffee and we relaxed for a while without being rushed. Overall for my first visit to Sal D's, I found our dining experience quite pleasurable read more

Sauce was nicely sweet. Crust was thin and crisp. Like all other places in Huntington parking atibks but if I'm in the mood in town, will be back read more

Hands down the best Italian food. Great date night atmosphere too. Great selection of wines too.

Great food, great menu and friendly staff. Our new go-to place. A step above a pizza parlor but not as expensive as a high end place. It's a perfect median priced restaurant. read more

Completely unreasonable in where they placed our family for a table. Cramped environment with tacky decor, and the food didn't justify the lengthy wait times. read more

Reviewed all of the 1 star ratings and they say essentially the same thing. Reservation policy is idiotic and there's no logic to it. I have a food service background! My wife and I are regular customers. 8 out of 10 people arrived a few minutes before our 7:00PM reservation. They would not seat us because one couple was running late. The party was all in their eighties and one uses a walker. When asked if they could make an exception they said no again. Everyone wanted to sit and order drinks as the bar can only sit two people. I expressed my disappointment about the unreasonableness of this policy. The hostess went in the back and told one of the supposed owners that we were very upset. He asked me to come outside to discuss the matter. When I went outside, I extended my hand to shake his, he started shouting at me and would not shake my outreached hand. I only wanted to discuss the matter like two gentlemen. When I opened the kitchen door to express my disappointment to the Chef and Owner, a thing I've always done to complement the Owner/Chef, I was physically pushed out of the doorway. I should have called the Police at that point We all left without eating and were gladly welcomed at a place down the street who comped us Apps and desserts for our inconvenience. Needless to say, we will never go back after 20 years of supporting them as regulars and introducing dozens of our friends to the restaurant. We've already begun telling everyone we know about this disgraceful experience! read more

Food is just ok. Not great. Some items have very little flavor. Rude servers. Dark restaurant.

Old school. Reliable and delicious. You want a solid Italian meal? Guaranteed??? Sal D has you covered. Moved to the local area a few months ago. We are foodies who eat out at least five times a week. We just keep coming back here over and over. Some outstanding items: Baked clams, arugula salad, every chicken dish, artichokes and truly unique thin crust pizza that you will die for. Great wines by bottle or glass. Generous pours too. Oddly, they're a little weak on dessert. They have some decent items, but would be better if they served ricotta cheesecake instead of American. Selection a bit limited. Good cappuccino. Super nice people. Feels like home. read more

Sal D Al Fresco seating is a HIT!!!! I hope they continue this tradition post covid! The food was really fantastic especially the shrimp francese. Huge portion of shrimp and the sauce was so delicious. Highly recommend the Montepulciano : La Quercia from Abruzzo! Don't bother with a glass get the bottle. You won't be disappointed. read more

Walked in on the Friday night before Valentine's Day and was expecting a wait but was nicely surprised that there was none. The waitress seemed a little overworked but pleasant enough. We started w the stuffed artichoke and I have to say it was the best one I've ever eaten at a restaurant. I loved it! So we went on to a pizza with onions which was awesome too! This is where the review gets wonky. We ordered the seafood risotto which I didn't really care for. It was on the bland side and they did not use the right kind of rice for risotto. It was just your regular white rice which was over cooked and not too yummy. So just then, the waitress from the table behind me dumps a glass of red wine on my coat, pants and my cellphone! Total pandemonium! No not total but my coat was a light color and then it was red! So they offer to bring it to the dry cleaners the next day and comped 1/2 of our meal. Cool beans but my coat is going to take 2 weeks to get cleaned! Boo Hoo!! Next time, no risotto, no red wine... read more
