Salvo Osteria Romana

The food was outstanding. The octopus carpaccio set the tone right from the start, delicate, bright, and soooo good. Totally unexpected to be as good as it was. The burratina was silky and aromatic, paired perfectly with the thinly sliced prosciutto. And the tableside cacio e pepe was an absolute show stopper. But as good as the food was, it was Roberto who made the experience unforgettable. Even with a full house, his service was attentive, warm, and effortless. We never felt unattended, he seemed to anticipate everything before we even asked. Greatly recommend. Salvo has brought back to this locale the great restaurant experience missed since the days of Galanga.

First time here since it opened. Read some reviews that were negative which ranged from the food, service and atmosphere. Take any of those comments/reviews with a grain of salt! The interior design is streamlined but welcoming and warm. The service is excellent, Sonny our server was friendly and professional, great knowledge on the food. The wine selection is varied and very good selections, the food was excellent, delicious and substantial. The dessert was delicious, we had the mango pie, it had a fantastic flavor with a berry ganache and mango bits that made it heavenly. Loved this place and it is definitely a return visit, very happy with the experience!

I lived in Rome for about twenty years, in the Trastevere area, which is a neighborhood filled with the classic Roman osterie. I still carry those flavors, those memories, those unforgettable atmospheres with me especially in December, when every light would bathe the city in that warm orange glow, just like Rome’s beautiful sky. So for me, a Roman osteria is Rome. It’s not just a matter of taste; it’s the taste of memory. Because of that, how could I resist the temptation to walk into this Salvo Roman osteria, even if it’s set in a landscape that has nothing to do with Rome? Well, I did give in, and I went with four friends and I have to say, the memories came rushing back. I tasted a cacio e pepe almost identical to the one I used to eat at Augustarello in Trastevere, fritto di calamari,

Salvos Osteria Romana is located in Wilton Manors. Compliments of some dear friends, we were treated to a warm, authentic, Italian evening. Owner Salvo hails from Sicily, Chef Giancarlo from Naples and Julio from Rome. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we felt like extended family. Those are the connections that keep us wanting to come back. The food is without a doubt some of the best that we've had. Cacio Pepe was made tableside in a cheese wheel and tasted every bit as good as it looks. Tomato Stewed Octopus was rustic & succulent. The burrata was house made creaminess atop the freshest of prosciutto. All pastas are made in house. Tagliatelle Bolognese was mouth watering hearty. Salmon and veggies were delightfully light . The pesto gnocchi were little pillows of heave

The restaurant made a very good impression. The service was of a high standard: attentive staff, competent management, and a professional approach. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. There are a few comments regarding the kitchen: the tuna would benefit from an additional sauce to enhance its flavor, and the risotto could use some refinement in terms of seasoning — it lacked depth. Overall, a respectable place with the potential to become a strong culinary destination. Thank you for the evening.
