They feature classic Italian fare with large portions--be prepared to take some of your meal home, and trust me, it's just as good the second time when reheated. Service is friendly.

Enjoyed a great dinner with friends after David Sedaris' show at Town Hall. The new location is…read moregreat and lovely to be on the water! Service and food were excellent - especially that bread. Our party is especially thankful for the gracious help from the front of house staff to seat us at 9:30, a full 30 minutes after our 9:00 reservation. While the last seating was to have been 9:00; and the restaurants current patrons were all into their entrees+, we were seated and had a lovely time and meal.

We decided to give Front Street another try and were excited to visit their new location with its…read morebeautiful harbor views. The view was easily the highlight of the evening. Unfortunately, the exterior of the building is easy to miss, with all of the curtains closed, making it blend into its surroundings unless you're specifically looking for it. We were greeted promptly upon arrival and appreciated the thoughtful nods to the original location, with several familiar items on display. It was a nice touch that added some character and nostalgia. We chose to sit at the bar, which is quite large. The bartender was responsible for approximately 20 bar guests while also handling drink service for the restaurant. Despite being spread very thin, she was friendly, attentive, and made excellent martinis. She truly did the best she could under the circumstances. We ordered an appetizer, which took a long time to arrive. When our entrées were served, both the pasta and chicken dishes were only lukewarm. The sauces were extremely thin--more like soup than a pasta sauce. To add to the disappointment, there was no bread service because the restaurant had run out of bread. Overall, the meals were fair but fell well short of our expectations. As we were leaving, we tried to speak with the hostess about the new location and the restaurant's plans for the future. Unfortunately, she seemed dismissive and showed little interest in having a conversation with us. We genuinely wanted Front Street's new chapter to be a success and were hoping for a much better experience, especially after spending nearly $200. There is certainly potential here--the location is beautiful, and some members of the staff are clearly working hard--but the overall dining experience simply did not match the price point. We hope the restaurant is able to address these issues as it settles into its new home for the rest of this season.

The restaurant is so pretty, the view is gorgeous, and the staff is so nice. Our waiter, Ivan, was a real treat. He made sure we were having a good, fun time from the minute we sat down. We were particularly impressed when, on realizing we were all going to share the Caesar salad, he brought out the salad already portioned into individual bowls. Also shout out to the focaccia bread and the amazing staff making sure we always had enough! I cannot recommend this place any more. If you're in town, you must make a reservation, it's worth it

We were seated at a cozy table for two with beautiful views of the bay, and from that moment on, the experience was flawless. Ivan was the consummate professional, warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. He guided us through the menu, made thoughtful recommendations, and made us feel like regulars from the moment we sat down. His colleague kept our glasses filled with ice-cold lemon water all evening, a small gesture that was especially appreciated on such a sweltering night. We also had a second serving of delicious focaccia without even asking!! The service was effortless. You never had to look around or wonder where anyone was. Someone always seemed to appear exactly when you needed them. The wine was perfectly chilled. The food arrived piping hot. Every dish was beautifully prepared, balanced, and full of flavor. Nothing tried too hard; everything simply worked. One of my favorite parts of the evening was the atmosphere. No blaring music competing with conversation, just the soft hum of happy diners, the occasional call of a seagull, and the peaceful feeling of dining by the water. And then came the fudge at the end. Really? As if they hadn't already won us over. Sal's Place isn't just dinner, it's the kind of experience that reminds you why people fall in love with Provincetown. Thoughtful hospitality, incredible food, a spectacular setting, and a team that genuinely cares. We can't wait to return.

It might even be our new favorite. My family ordered the deviled eggs, which I got to try and I ordered a cheeseburger with french fries. I had never heard of a restaurant using shredded cheese on a burger so that was a unique experience. It was still good though. I asked for my burger cooked rare and they did just that. The meat was seasoned pretty well and the french fries hit the spot. I ordered two diet cokes that went down FAST and really washed everything down. I was happy with the service and I love that it's an LGBTQ+ owned business. The history of the restaurant is really sweet and I've heard that the owners of the restaurant will even come out to say hi to you if you ask to meet them. Overall it was a great dining experience and I would love to try more items on the menu in the future.

The chopped italian salad was also really good. We highly recommend the salads! Next we had sandwiches for our meal. The cod bahn mi was very light and refreshing. The burger was massive and also quite tasty. I had the chicken sandwich and it was very good but a little too spicy for me. All the sandwiches came w chips except the burger was served with good fries. For dessert we shared the praline sundae and peach and blackberry cobbler. Both were incredible. Service was attentive and warm! Eli was our server and deserves all 5 stars as do the bussers who kept our waters filled and table clean

On the early summer evening we visited, a wedding celebration was happening just a few doors down. Since the sought-after patio tables had been reserved days in advance, our party of six sat indoors, where the navy-and-white-striped décor contributed to a dimly lit atmosphere. Our server was friendly but seemed a bit apprehensive when he approached our table. After we mentioned that our niece was a vegetarian and specifically requested no bacon in her Chop Chop salad, we were surprised to find it included bacon. Service was attentive, but missed an opportunity to refill my outstanding $18 white peach mojito when dinner was served. The food itself was hit-or-miss: standouts included the bang bang cauliflower and burrata caprese appetizers, the flatiron steak, and the salmon special, while the shrimp tacos, chop salad, and haddock ceviche were underwhelming. We decided to skip dessert. If I could give 3.5 stars, I would.
