Salvatore's Pizzeria - Virginia Beach

Previously known as Salvatore's, this restaurant is now operating under new ownership and management. My experiences here have been associated with monthly meetings held by a large men's church group that utilizes the dining space.

My sister and I were in the area, and since our great-grandfather from Palermo shared the same name as the restaurant, we decided to give it a try. Upon arriving, we were warmly greeted and...

Whoa, WARNING, WARNING, WARNING! This is NOT the Salvatore's you remember! We arrived and saw the temporary sign for Gino's, but it was...

I made a reservation for my husband's birthday, but when we arrived, the restaurant couldn't find our booking, even though Open Table had confirmed it. Our server was not attentive at all. She mentioned she would bring the bread that comes with our meals, but she never returned with it. Eventually, we had to ask another server for it, and after a long wait, we only received two small garlic knots right as we were finishing our meals. She also didn't offer to refill our drinks, and the overall service was subpar. We were really disappointed. The food was good, but the service fell short of expectations.

It was my first visit to this restaurant, and I had a fantastic experience! I ordered the deluxe pizza and was delighted by its delicious flavor, abundant toppings, and wonderfully crispy crust. They also served me the best garlic knots I've ever had, accompanied by a delicious in-house dipping sauce. This place is new and definitely deserves support. I highly recommend it!
