Perfect for indulging in a sumptuous slice of la dolce vita in more ways than one, this delightful spot brings a taste of Italy to the table. As the future hangs just around the corner, step inside this time machine for every meal to transport in time to a slower pace and simpler life.

The dining room is resplendent with antiques, maps, and objet d'art from a bygone era. Plus, with every table set with candles, the twinkling lights suffusing the room will make you feel like you're dining in a pretty alcove of Italy when sitting down for a meal at Salva D'or.

When dining at this traditional trattoria, try an antipasto platter, insalata caprese, or a warming plate of gnocchi. As you might expect for an eatery that celebrates all things Italian, there's a very well-curated wine list of vinos from Italia, globetrotting further afield around the Mediterranean and closer to home.
