" I stumbled upon Salento when I was looking for a nice Italian restaurant after a day at the beach. I opted for their lasagna, which was delicious but not what I expected in terms of portion size. The service was friendly, but there were a few mix-ups with our drinks. Still, I will return for their unique offerings. " (*Curated Review*)
