If you want to have authentic Italian food with perfect quality, go here. I can not tell you how amazing the food is it’s that great! Just go try it, trust me!
The service is great. We literally didn’t want for anything they were on it.
The owner is a very nice and sincere family man. You can tell how much he loves his family and his restaurant. He is very caring and special. It was a pleasure to meet him and enjoy his restaurant.
You just have to go here… and try it. We will definitely be back when we get the chance, and thanks so much for the awesome experience

Nice quiet setting and friendly staff. Food was excellent. Had the Mac and cheese pizza and half was cheese sticks which was an awesome option. Very reasonable prices. 2 drinks and a small pizza was 22$ . I will definitely be back

BY FAR THE BEST PIZZA PLACE IN MUSCATINE, IOWA! The Vitale family is SO kind and have such a loving and welcoming environment. Always fresh ingredients, NEVER serves cold food, and always fast paced even on the busiest days and times. Much love to the Vitale’s

I was looking for a local restaurant with great food and this was the perfect place! Service was quick and very friendly. The Francesca pizza and limoncello cake were both delicious. Most of the dishes on their menu looked good and wish I could have tried more. Looking forward to returning on my next trip to Muscatine.

November 2, my boyfriend Joshua was visiting Iowa for MSPT Poker. This is his personal review: “Italian beer. It’s pretty good. I met the owner of Sal’s, his kids, his friends, we all had a nice conversation, and he was the absolute nicest guy ever. I had the most pleasant solo date I could’ve asked for. Service was exceptional. 10/10. I would definitely revisit.”

This is the best pizza place in Iowa. First of all, the customer service is excellent. The servers are kind, attentive, and patient. We ordered pasta and pizza. As soon as you taste the food you know this isn’t some frozen food canned stuff. It’s all homemade. They shred their own cheese, make the sauce, and bring the olive oil from their own olive farm in Italy. We met the owner. He shared his story on how he opened up the business, a true American story. The pizza wasn’t greasy. It had the best flavor and plenty of cheese. I recommend the deep dish stuffed crust pizza. The stuffed pasta shells are so yummy. We tried the cannolis, lemoncello cake, and chocolate cake and they taste just like the ones in Italy. If you like fine quality food, this place is it. They don’t accept cards so make sure you take cash. Support local businesses. This one has been standing after so many years even through the pandemic because they prepare the food with much love and also as if it was for them. They know that everything is energy and people deserve to have food prepared with love, intention, and high quality ingredients.

The breads and pizzas look like they’re allergic to fully cooking things. Salt and seasoning was missing from the dishes I tried. Watery and tasteless. Server recommended the more expensive dish just because it was more expensive, I should have not trusted it. The chicken marsala was woody and tough, and the mushrooms somehow did very little to add to the flavor. Cash only? Definitely get a vibe of not paying taxes, which would be interesting if this place had any taste.

First time at Sal Vitale’s and everything was AMAZING! I really wish this Italian Ristorante was 40 miles closer to the Quad Cities. Honestly, worth the drive if you’re looking for quality Italian dishes or searching for great pizza. We could not decide on pizza or pasta so we ordered both. So glad too!
Actually, thought the sausage pizza was one of the best. They make their own Italian sausage too. And their artisan crust is definitely a great mix of crispy but chewy. Love!
Ordered Norino’s Seafood Pasta. Such a rich and creamy dreamy sauce on fettuccine with crab and shrimp. Magnifico!
Lastly, we completed our meal with a delicious piece of tiramisu. All fabulous!
Our waiter, Alex, was very attentive, and made sure we had a great experience.
We definitely will make the trip back to Sal Vitale’s in Muscatine Iowa soon to try other yummy items!

First time visitor. Small restaurant setting, tables were close. Family restaurant and for a weeknight they were busy. This meant the noise level was up too. Bring cash for dine in, they do not accept cards for payment.

Salad is basic…romaine and dressing and a small sprinkle of diced tomatoes. Rolls were good, tasted a bit like pizza dough.
Good for sopping up sauce.

I ordered the chicken parmigiana, my husband ordered the Tour of Italy (stuffed shell, lasagna and fettuccini alfredo) and my daughters shared the ziti aviano. His dishes were tasty. Of his, the shell and lasagna were the best. My daughters’ ziti aviano reminded me of the fettuccini Neapolitan that Pizza Hut used to have way back when. (YUM!) The chicken (and this is more of a preference) was not as crispy as I expected it to be but the sauce was nice.

Restaurant is wheelchair accessible. Watch the second doorway, it is not completely zero entry and (my error) I caught the front tires on the lip of the threshold and gave her a good bump. The tables are close and the only open spot was near the door where the best spot was for the chair out of the choices. I don’t know how we might make another table in that part of the restaurant work due to the handles sticking out (always bumped by the waitresses it seems.) I did grab one waitress at the end to inquire about the other room (party room) and she said if it didn’t have a party we could request it for spacing but that is something we wouldn’t know until we got there.

Waiter was a young man and based on the Facebook and website I think it is a son of the owners. He did a nice job. The owner popped in and around the restaurant to ask the tables how they were doing.

As we sat there we saw other dishes come out to other tables and there will definitely be more we want to try sometime!
