IMHO. It is hit and miss. Went for the third time (November) the service was REALLY bad!! The waiter even got in an argument with our guest (WHO, BTW is a super regular there!!!) over something he didn't do but said he did do! "NO you never placed our order"! The second time we were with a big group. ( not my choose) My meal wasn't bad, but really the prices for Ravioli???$$$ Two of our group were never told what the price was for there meals . The price was OVER the top$$$$ Don't get me wrong, the location is amazing and the restaurant is beautiful. Three and OUT for us!!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

" there are those detractors regarding Sal e Pepe who will always pop up." You can call me one of them but it is what it is. “ Place is good for some but not for all.” It's hit and miss but if that is how you want to chance your evening out go for it. “Place is good for some but not for all” I believe this is true for just about everything in life. It’s never one size fits all. No one and no place is perfect. We have had good experiences there. There may come a time when we don’t. Then a decision will be made to either return or not.

To me it looks equally divided good and bad. On this post. On this forum. There are probably thousands of people who have dined at this restaurant who aren't even members of this forum. There are probably hundreds of people who are members here who haven't posted in this thread. I can think of eight, myself included. So, to rectify a very small part of that: I dined there with a group of eight and we were all very pleased with our meals, and the service. We actually tried to go back, but the night we wanted to go they were either not open, or fully booked, I don't recall now which. Regardless, we'll be back.

We went twice but not in the new location. The first time we went we were able to dine al fresco and it was a wonderful evening. The food and the service were all excellent - thank you very much Lesley Bruce for the recommendation. This was very shortly after they opened and we happened by with no reservation and they were apologetic about only being able to seat us outside. We loved it.
Tried to go back to the same seating accommodations last April and all those tables were reserved. It was inside or pass so we took what they had. The service was more than just a little chaotic and while the food was good, I really wouldn’t describe it as extraordinary. We just chalked it up to a bad night and anyone can have them. But it was good enough that for we would probably go back if only to try the new location.
There are so many great SXM restaurants it’s hard to squeeze everything into two weeks. We also had vrry good Italian at Isola with friends last year - another very nice place that doesn’t get nearly the mention of so many others.
Respectfully,
pat
