We love Sal E Pepe! The homemade pasta is such great comfort food. My go-to is the braised short rib ravioli, spectacular! I usually am able to reuse the cream sauce the next day to make my own batch of ravioli at home and the flavors are still so rich.
When we go to eat in the restaurant, the staff are extraordinary-very attentive, Shannon and Wendy are great! And the support staff (busses, food runners) are so polite and courteous and just an all around pleasure. We love getting Sal E Pepe, everyone on our family chooses this as our ‘special birthday dinner’. The price is extremely fair and they offer coupons that add to the savings. Outdoor seating is also available for the warmer seasons, and decor is rotated for the time of year also, making it extra homey and cozy. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough!
Also-kids get a free ice cream dessert afterwards. Family friendly, but still very much a great date night spot!

Aye t̾e̾r̾p̾y̾fam ya guy finally slid up on S-é-PCIB..so how was it?
Overall it was good for a Sunday lunch w/the family. And would have gotten 5stars if nit for service.
Tbf our waitress seemed to be handling every table seated so it was a bit busy for her but, seemed to favor certain tables more which was a little weird. (Its not a large dining area)
Apps were good, bruschetta was served warm (different but not bad) and the arancini werent overly cheesy.
Their red sauce leans on the sweeter side so no heartburn issues there, no complaints there really and the meatballs are housemade and good quality all around. All pasta dishes were toothy and not over cooked (another plus) and food came out relatively fast.
Would come back but just not on a Sunday when waitstaff is minimal. Food is solid and they have a lot of options.

Amazing experience, they really know how to make small moments special. This is Italian food done right, pasta was so fresh. Excellent service, fair price. Try everything! An appetizer, entree and dessert! Still dreaming of their most perfect creme brulee!

Everything was wonderful. The food, from appetizers to dessert was excellent. We had the shrimp scampi pizzetta, which is delicious. I had the Sunday Gravy dinner, and I can’t wait to eat my leftovers on Sunday! All of your waitstaff is the best! They are all extremely attentive, friendly, and polite. We are fairly new to the area, and have enjoyed your food quite a number of times. We brought our kids for the first time and they were very impressed. We’ll be back very soon!

We were impressed as our waitress took our order and didn’t write anything down and when our food came out, everything was as we ordered it. We tend to order food with either exceptions to what is on the menu, so to have everything served as requested by someone other than the waitress who took the order was very impressive. My steak was a little overcooked but it was tender and very good. We frequent this establishment due to the quality and atmosphere! Great experience.

I recently ordered catering from Sal E Pepe. It was a great experience from placing the order to enjoying the delectable food! The filet mignon was cooked to perfection and the risotto was out of this world! My guests also truly enjoyed the Chicken Scarpariello and the Salmon Picatta. I’ve never eaten at the restaurant itself but if the catering is as good as it is, the restaurant experience must be amazing! I’m looking forward to visiting with the family. I’m sure many of my guests will be doing the same! Thanks for a great experience!

We were there for New Years Eve. First let me say that the food was really good. Best in the state, no, but still very good. There were four of us, and everyone enjoyed their meals. The service, on the other hand, was really frustrating. I understand that holidays are challenging for busy restaurants, but this was over the top. We were seated promptly, but then it was 15 minutes before a server (not our server) came to take drink orders. After at least 20 minutes more (didn’t really look at the time), our server came over. No welcome, introduction, or anything, just “are you ready?” Our appetizers and salads came out fairly quickly and were good, but our server didn’t return for quite a while to see if we wanted more drinks. She didn’t come back while we were eating to see if everything was ok or if we needed anything else. We were in the restaurant for a total of 2 1/2 hours. I don’t mind relaxed dining service, but this was a bit much.

Restaurant is located in a strip mall in Newtown, CT.
Our party of 9 people enjoyed the food and beverages with no notable complaints.
The salad was super fresh and excellent. Food plating was pedestrian and the portions were modest. Service was excellent but the restaurant was eerily empty, even for a Wednesday evening. Seating was comfortable and uncrowded.
The restaurant is divided into two sections with one section for large groups and the other with smaller tables and the bar.
The sirloin tips and lasagna were excellent, but overall, I would not go out of my way to dine here since there are some many other options.

Amazing food! Run don’t walk here! Delicious fresh, well cooked, quality entrees and good home made warm bread served with dinner. Quiet calm ambience and seems a ton of regulars dine here. Chicken dish had a very scrumptious sauce. Salmon was cooked perfectly and the accommodate whatever way you prefer your fish cooked. It was delightful and everyone left full and happy. Easy parking lot and nice environment! We will be back! 5 stars and above!

A great night with the family. Food worth traveling for. The service was fantastic and our servers were all incredibly kind. Everyone we dealt with were absolutely professional. Food is very well done and carefully considered. You will have trouble deciding what you want to commit to!
