Reviews for Salutos Pizza & Pasta in Gurnee, IL
The food is decent. However, The price of their entrees have increased by about 4.00 a piece and their soft drinks about 1.00. I... realize you have to account for inflation, but this increase seems a bit much. Also, you use to get unlimited salad and rolls.They now only give you two rolls with your dinner and one little bowl of salad. When one is paying about 23.00 or 24.00dollars for a plate of pasta, it should still come with unlimited salad and rolls. Read more
Do not go here unless you want to waste your money on bad food. First of all, the food is overpriced. I paid $24 for 2 dinner... rolls (which are not good, they were not soft and lacked flavor) a very small salad, and a plate of pasta. We ordered the?Frankie? With fettuccine pasta and it was the most plain , terrible pasta I?ve ever eaten. The fettuccine lacked flavor and wasunusually thick. It felt like eating dough. The pasta sauce was only olive oil and garlic which was essentially unnoticeable. Weasked the waitress for pesto sauce (which they charged us $2 even though we expressed how plain the pasta was) and even that wasterrible. I liked the salad so I ordered another one, but they charged $8. Also, the ambience is confusing. It seems like a niceplace to go for a date night, but they serve you water in plastic cups. I honestly felt like I was scammed. You are better offgoing to Olive Garden or Carrabbas. Read more
We ate here this weekend and the food was terrible. The fettuccine noodles were cold, rubbery and looked liked French fries? ... water tasted disgusting. Thought the waitress was talking to a kid behind the counter? god I was it was? she was talking to af?cking unleashed dog ????. We ate very little, put it in to go boxes and chucked it in a dumpster. I wouldn?t feed this tohomeless people. Read more
We used to go to Salutos fairly regular the food was consistently good and the service as well. I know the pandemic has had a... large effect on their industry more than most. As the food was not to my liking and spoke with our server. This is what I saidwe did eat the salads and my wife at her one meatball along with our ice tea and we were happy too pay for that. She said shewill speak with the owner. The server returned with a bill for 2 salads @ $ 11.00 each and that?s for a side salad ugh.Everything else on the bill was fairly priced. I went to the cashier which was the same person that either was the owner ormanager and asked about the price of the salads First I would like to say no apologies or anything about our experience here butwas very forceful about the pricing on their side salads and then further explained to us that there is nothing wrong with thefood that was served. Ok well we all have our options but really no I?m sorry or what can they do again $11.00 for a side saladthat comes with the meal say it all I can say. Read more
Food was delicious. Clean, nice inside. Very nice waitress and staff. A great experience!
The atmosphere resembles a nice mom and pop Italian restaurant. The staff was very nice and polite. The food was unfortunately... underwhelming. My girlfriend had the spaghetti, a very simple dish that any Italian restaurant should be able to make. Howeverit was very bland and the noodles were over cooked. I had the philly cheese steak, the meat was bland and tasteless. I didn'trealize that it would have mushrooms on it and that was my fault not the restaurant's, however after I removed the mushrooms Iwas left with only half a sandwich. Unfortunately the best part of the meal was the salad. Personally I will not be coming backfor the Italian food however I will come back to try the pizza which the restaurant is mostly known for.

It was a very confusing experience. We went for a late lunch. The atmosphere looked nice, but they used plastic salad bowls,... salad plates, and water cups and ugly plastic fake leather table clothes. Service was on the slower side. The wine was good. Thesalad was excellent. Very good dressing. The rolls were okay. We did get the lunch portions, and they were very accommodating,but we were very surprised by the size. The cheese ravioli was 4 raviolis for $14. The creamy vodka sauce I chose was very good,the filling was good, the pasta itself did not impress. The Chicken Diavolo tasted like nothing but red pepper flakes and waswhat looked like a 4oz serving for $13. It did come with a side of pasta, your choice of pasta type and sauce, but the homemadepasta was ... 8 minutes past al dente. Overall, this seems like the kind of place that could be amazing, but things are in halfmeasures. Read more
Our favorite restaurant in the area. Have never had a disappointing meal here. The food is great. House salad is the best. Home... made soup was great. Loved the fresh cod entre. The atmosphere and decor is very comfortable. The dining room is decked out forthe holidays with a beautiful tree in the center. We always request Jeannie as our server. She's the best!! The Bode family arealways welcoming and remember us every time we're there. They make you feel like family. Highly recommend for great pizza anddelicious Italian food. As with everywhere, they are a little short staffed. Be patient, it's well worth it! Read more
