Always a pleasure to stop into Pepe & Sale for some great food. My wife and I split a salad and a special pasta (Pappardelle with Lemon and lobster). Delicious.

Loved this cozy Italian restaurant as we felt like we were back in Italy. Loved the Branzino in Salt…and yes it has bones and that is NORMAL as anyone who has eaten fish over their lives would know so if you want no bones than do not order. We started by sharing an amazing salad which was so healthy. My hubby had the Lamb Chops which he enjoyed and they were cooked to perfection but I am not a meat person so.. I am so picky about wine and the wine my husband ordered. It was by the glass and STELLAR “Amarone” . For dessert he had the Limoncello cake. We will go back to try their pasta even though we are in Palm Beach. For sure worth the drive as we went to the Theater after. I am giving the food a 4 start because the “Sides” were not my thing and I wish they had a larger selection. Overall love this little GEM…

What a fantastic meal! The service was wonderful also. I would highly recommend Pepe & Sale as a perfect date night and special occasion restaurant!
The homemade Stacked Eggplant Parm Antipasti and the homemade Cannoli dessert were high lights of a fabulous dining experience!

Wonderful dinner – first visit. Food was excellent. Great patio area but we ate indoors due to cooler weather. Cozy atmosphere…got a little loud when all tables were full. Service was good but a little confusing with multiple servers sometimes asking us for food/beverage orders that we previously placed. Overall a nice experience and food was delicious.

We went here for Valentine’s Day and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience from start to finish.

When we were first seated, we were given a menu to order from and made our selections. Shortly after, we were told we had to order from a different menu instead. This second menu was never advertised or mentioned beforehand. While it wasn’t a huge issue in itself, it required everyone at the table to completely change their choices, which was frustrating and unexpected.

The problems really began with the appetizer. We ordered fried calamari, which came out in about two minutes. It was clearly undercooked, dripping with oil, and completely flavorless. There wasn’t even salt or pepper on the table, and no one came by to check on us.

For our entrées, my son and I ordered different veal dishes and my wife ordered the branzino. All of the sides arrived ice cold and lacked any seasoning. When our waiter finally came over and we mentioned it, he asked us to put the food back on a plate so he could warm it up. He later returned with a new plate of potatoes for my son, but the overall quality didn’t improve. My veal with eggplant was extremely salty, while my wife’s branzino — advertised as “cleaned and deboned tableside” — was bland and full of bones.

Service was also lacking. My soda sat empty until the very end of the meal. To make matters worse, refills were $5 per glass, which is excessive.

When the bill came, there was a 3.5% charge for using a card, which I understand. However, each meal was listed $3–$5 higher than the price shown on the menu — well beyond the stated 3.5%.

I don’t mind paying high prices for a great meal, but this experience was far below mediocre. It was genuinely horrible and not at all what we expected for a special occasion.

Tonight we had the absolute pleasure of dining at Pepe and Sal e and I must say it was an experience that was beyond our expectations. This was our third visit and every time our expectations are taken to another level. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted in Italian with warmth and genuine hospitality.

The food was phenomenal. My wife had the 8 oz filet which was cooked to perfection. My frutti del mare was to die for, I asked for a little extra spice and heat to be added and this dish which put it above the top. The other couple ordered the delicious salmon and the pistachio pesto which again was absolutely delicious.
Beyond the exquisite cuisine, Eric and his staff truly stood out. Extra thank you to Steven and Salvatore (aka Toto). They were not just fast and proficient, but genuinely friendly, Making us feel incredibly welcomed and well cared for throughout our entire meal.
Pepe and Sale has truly mastered the art of dining combining incredible food and unparalleled service. If you’re looking for memorable and delicious food we highly recommend this restaurant. We are already planning our next night out.

Fantastic meal. The staff is amazing and so accommodating. We had the salt crusted Bronzino and it was fabulous. The potatoes were so tender and flavorful I even asked for their secret recipe. I can’t wait to come back and try other delicacies. Great evening.

This place absolutely stole my heart from the moment I walked in. I came here with the most beautiful souls Maria, Eric, and Luka and the entire experience felt like a warm hug from Italy itself. The energy, the love, the atmosphere… everything felt so genuine, so welcoming, and so full of heart. It honestly felt like being invited into someone’s home for a family dinner rather than going out to eat at a restaurant.

The wine tasting? PERFECTION. Every sip was smooth, rich, romantic, and dangerously good. You could taste the care and tradition in every single glass. It wasn’t just wine it was an experience. Sweet, deep, and comforting, like it was made to slow time and make you fall in love with the moment.

As someone who is from Italy, I am very picky about Italian food and this place did NOT disappoint. The food tasted exactly like home. Not “American Italian,” but real, authentic, soulful Italian cooking. The pasta was clearly homemade, soft, fresh, and cooked to absolute perfection. The sauce tasted like it had been simmering all day with love, tradition, and a little bit of magic. You can tell nothing here is rushed everything is made with intention and pride.

The scallops? Don’t even get me started. They were beyond me. Perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and honestly life-changing. The dessert was homemade and tasted like someone’s Italian grandmother made it just for us. Every bite felt special. Every dish felt personal. This place doesn’t just serve food it serves memories.

The staff was incredibly sweet, warm, and loving. They treated us like family, not customers. The whole night felt intimate, cozy, and full of genuine care. I felt seen, welcomed, and appreciated the entire time I was there. It was romantic without trying to be, comforting without effort, and unforgettable in every way.

If you are Italian, PLEASE come here. You will feel at home. If you are not Italian, come anyway because this is where you will learn what real Italian food is supposed to taste like. This place is a hidden gem, a masterpiece, a love letter to Italy.

Absolutely worth every second, every dollar, and every bite. I would come back a thousand times. This is not just a restaurant. it’s an experience, a feeling, a memory I’ll never forget.

The food was excellent. I was a little disappointed with the service. The way they served the dishes was not consistent. On the same dish, some people received it garnished while other people did not. When ordering veal, they were supposed to bring a knife for meat. They didn’t. The same with the dessert, they brought it with a dessert spoon but you need a fork and a knife too to eat the strawberry. So far, there is room for improvement. But regarding the food itself it’s an excellent restaurant.
