Sal's by Victor

We dined here again on New Year's Day and we're not disappointed at all. We had the sweetest server named Serena who was incredibly patient with all of my mother's quirks. This time I got the lasagna and mum got a dish with mussels, shrimp and clams over linguine. The ONLY small tiny bit with the lasagna that kept it from utter perfection was the use of ricotta instead of a bechamel. Other than that it was amazing. Mum hoovered her mussels so I will assume they were also divine. The service was also verging on perfection. When mom sent her wine back (one of her quirks previously mentioned), Serena was happy to replace it. Of course, the owner Elio thought it amusing but was charm itself when we cashed out.I can't say this enough: if you are in the Williamsburg area, in the mood for great affordable food, you would do well to consider Sal's by Victor!

Stopped by for a quick lunch and as always, was not disappointed. Had the meat lovers pizza and spaghetti carbonara on the lunch menu. Still the same taste with full of flavor from the ingredients comprised of bacon, egg yolks, cheese, and more. The meat lovers pizza was packed with ham, sausage, thin slices of beef, pepperoni, tomato slices over pizza sauce. The pizza dough was just right. Not too thick or too thin and crisp when served.A serving of sangria washed it all downService is always quick. Staff are attentive even on busy Sunday. Ambiance remains the same - Italian with oil paintings on the wall thats for sale.

We visited this location while we were in town for the holidays. We were able to make a reservation in the afternoon for the evening. The restaurant is large and quite nice. They do not service liquor, only beer and wine and all drinks are by the bottles (there is no bar). Ie juices are in bottles too.The service was a tad slow but it was NYE so I'll give them a break. Otherwise, all food was great. Part of my order was late/forgotten, but the waitress did a good job.

Sal's by Victor is a nice and cozy restaurant that is surprisingly spacious than how it appears from the outside. It's a great place to take family, friends, or colleagues for dinner/lunch as they offer a gigantic menu that honestly could cover all the kinds of eaters out there. They have different varieties of pasta dishes for different kinds of proteins including vegetarian options. They also have non-pasta dishes like pizza, strombolis, calzones, subs, burgers, soups and so on. They also have a decent selection for desserts. You get both italian and non-italian options. Whatever you may fancy for the day!Our service in particular was on the slower side, but the food made up for the wait! My pasta was just the right al dente, our appetizer was also very tasty. You get a basket of bread and butter as well to go with your meal. The place also offers other items for sale like tomato sauces, wines and other items that appear to be imported from Italy or with relevance to Italian cuisine. I recommend this place for anyone craving Italian food!

When I first seen the place I was a little skeptical because it was located in a strip mall. I'm not used to seeing a larger restaurant in setting like this. I'm glad I gave it a try, we walk in and the restaurant is very busy, but we were seated immediately. Our server was on top of things from the time we sat down until we left. I got Victor's Sampler and it was delicious! The food was served hot and had a wonderful flavor. I finished the whole plate and probably should've stopped before that point. I was stuffed like a tick!I'll definitely be back!

Not a good experience. Ordered a Corona, no limes. Stromboli not hot, cheese not melted. Old lettuce. Cheap garlic bread.

The food was excellent. I had chicken Marsala and my wife had the smoked chicken ravioli. Absolutely scrumptious! My son had pepperoni pizza, which he thoroughly enjoyed. The tiramisu and limoncello cake were excellent as well. Kiki was an excellent hostess and treated us very well. The interior ambiance was beautiful. It was nice just to sit inside and look at all of the paintings adorning the walls. It looks much smaller on the outside than it actually was on the inside. They could handle a tour bus stopping in for a meal. Plenty of room and delicious food - you need to check this place out!

We came here while on vacation in the area. You walk in to a very busy entry way and you pay at the register and they have a small retail area for wines and packaged foods and the take out counter. It is a fairly large restaurant and pretty busy. Service is quick and attentive. I started with the fried calamari and ordered the chicken Marsala. The calamari was large and very tender and light battered, very good. The Marsala has 3Large breasts and a plateful of linguini pasta. The dish could have been seasoned more but was ok. I then had a Bomba for dessert and it was very good. A very good meal.

Went to a big gathering and they accommodated amazingly! Over 30 people! The staff was great and took wonderful care of us all, we didn't feel rushed at all! Great time! Great place for a big party! The food was wonderful too. I got the chicken Alfredo and the chicken was cooked perfect and the sauce was salty and great. The mozzarella sticks are great too! This is a come back to place! Don't skip out on dessert, HUGE menu!! Homemade Tiramisu was actually soaked in Coffee fresh it's a must get

My neighbors and I have been trying pizza from the restaurants in Williamsburg, so this review and rating focus on pizza only. We recently went to Sal's and ordered three pies: Cheese, Vegetable, and Victor's Combination: The Works. All were a large size. The sauce was somewhat sweet, which we like, and the amount of cheese was good. The toppings were fresh and plentiful. My favorite was the simple cheese pizza. For me, the works just had too much going on: pepperoni, sausage, onions, green peppers, and mushrooms. My husband, on the other hand liked all the toppings. The crust tasted good on the ends, but it was too thin to support the pizza and just vanished as we tried to pick it up. Service was friendly and efficient. The dining area is large, and as a group of six we were seated in a back room that seemed designed for large groups. The front room looked more intimate and relaxing. Overall, we liked Sal's just fine. It's convenient to the historic area and William & Mary. It's a good spot for families.
