Sal Vitale's Italian Restaurant And Pizzeria
"The Original Italian Restaurant in Muscatine Since 1984"
About Us
In Italy, the very best place to become acquainted with Italian cooking & wine is the “trattoria” The trattoria is a small, informal restaurant, often off the beaten path on a small back street, or in the intimate little squares of the working class quarter. At Sal Vitale’s, we try to capture the mood, flavors & taste of the famous Italian trattoria.
Sal Vitale’s, like the Italian trattoria, is much more than a commercial establishment. It is a way of life for people who really appreciate their food & have come to except great tasting pizza & pasta. We strive to provide the same variety & quality of food & beverage that make a journey to the kitchens & wine cellars of Italy so exciting.
The family came to America in 1983 from Palermo, Sicily, where the taste of pizza & pasta originated. “Although my family came to America to begin a new way of life, we still brought tradition & old ways with us, like our family recipes which have been passed from generation to generation.” Great Italian food can still be found in America at our trattoria, Sal Vitale’s.

Absolutely loved this place! The food is truly authentic Italian — every bite was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The service was outstanding; everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. The restaurant is spotless, cozy, and you can tell they care about every detail. The flavors were out of this world! Definitely one of the best Italian dining experiences I’ve ever had. Highly recommend it! 🇮🇹🍝🍷
