Time Visited: 7:00pm Saturday Wait Time: Made a reservation so there was no wait at all. Food: Quattro Formaggi (PHP770) was delicious. The sweet honey poured over the pie contrasted so well with each of the four cheeses. For dessert, the Tiramisu was the perfect way to end the meal. Vibe: Great spot to grab dinner with a group of friends on a Saturday night. The rush hour here is a bit later than normal. Even without a reservation it would have been easy to find a table when we arrived at 7:00pm, but halfway through our dinner at 8:30pm the place was packed and the lively vibe made for an energetic Saturday. Located in BGC, the restaurant is located next to Yes Please, Revel, and several other nightspots and would serve as a nice location for either pre-game or the main event for the night. read more

Mediocre and slow service, funky prices and questionable quality. The pizza was disgusting; as you lifted one slice of pizza, all of the sauce and cheese quickly slid off the slice onto the plate, leaviNg you with a sad piece of wet bread. The salad was very badly presented, looking like a sloppy dish where they threw entire romaine leaves with some random toppings, not minding about taste or harmony of the ingredients. The appetizer we oRdered, although tasty, was misleadingly advertised as an eggplant parmigiana but had nothing of a parmigiana in its presentation. We did not bother ordering dessert. I had better expectations for a restaurant with this many locations and reviews, will not be going back. read more

Salvatore is a wonderful restaurant with few flaws. The process are high, but the food is top quality. Service is friendly and efficient. The dining area is very modern and open with private rooms as well. It's quite common to see celebrities or politicians dining here too. The food is modern Italian, but don't expect large protons generally. Their risottos are creamy and flavorful, but portions are small. The Caesar salad is creative and flavorful. My one complaint is they no longer give the fried zepoli bread as complementary. This bread is easily delicious dipped in their Olive oil. It's still available, but sadly you have to pay for it now. They also have a full bar with cocktails, wines and some creative non alcoholic shakes. Salvatore is certainly one of the best Italian restaurants in Manila, but be prepared to spend because it has prices to match. read more

This is probably one of the restaurants in Manila where diners can expect authentic Italian Cuisine, prepared with the same quality service as with any other Salvatore Cuomo in the world. Chef Salvatore Cuomo takes pride in serving the most authentic Neapolitan Pizza in Manila that is cooked in a huge brick oven (Oven is made from Volcanic Rocks from Mount Vesuvius) How awesome is that? Their menu doesn't just limit you in having the taste of Italy during dinner but you can also savor one delicious Neopolitan meal during Lunch! Lunch Menu price is more affordable but quality of food is still the same. With this, you can have your favored dishes on smaller portions from 11AM to 5PM Mondays to Fridays. Meals are Lighter and suited for Business meetings and group lunch outs. Lastly, everyone will love Salvatore Cuomo's ambiance. A fine dining feel but you can still go casual. read more

Lately, The Food Crawlers are getting slammed with invites, definitely more than I can be physically present for with my current work schedule. But our good friend Joey's events are always fun (and she keeps us well-fed too), so her invitations are always pushed ahead of the queue and never get lost in the shuffle. Salvatore Cuomo is an Italian restaurant and bar located at the corner of 38th Street and 9th Avenue in BGC. It has recently developed a special lunch menu that we were only too happy to try. Tagliere di Affettati - The meal started with a beautiful plate of traditional Italian cold cuts. It's on the menu as Tagliere di Affettati, and is comprised of salami, mortadella, coppa, and prosciutto. Mozzarella di Bufala Caprese - I've had several run-ins with the caprese salad before, mainly during catered company lunches and dinners and business trips. I can remember only two that I really enjoyed. Salvatore Cuomo's Mozzarella di Bufala Caprese is one of them. I kid you not, the cherry tomatoes were fresh and sweet, and worked well with the mozzarella cheese in keeping us in our seats while the main course was being prepared. Porcini e Porcetta Pizza - I'm no food snob, so I wouldn't deny loving my meat lovers pizza. If you find yourself in this place and looking for something familiar, then I would recommend the Porcini e Porcetta Pizza. Savory slices of porcini mushrooms and roast pork atop a layer of gooey mozzarella cheese and a warm, soft crust. Quattro Formaggi Pizza - Because one pizza is not enough. Salvatore Cuomo's Quattro Formaggi Pizza is SERIOUSLY DELICIOUS! It has the softest crust of ALL the pizzas I've had so far. Don't forget to drizzle some honey on your slice before that first bite. Grilled Salmon - Despite the crumbly topping, I thought the grilled salmon was perfectly cooked. And I wish I had asked the server what was in the glaze/sauce because that was wonderful too. Ribeye Steak - The steak was cooked perfectly, though I wish steamed rice was an available option at this restaurant. Tiramisu - I love the tiramisu! It has a bold coffee flavor, not too sweet or rich, so it is not as cloying as your usual tiramisu dessert. #SalvatoreCuomoPH #SalvatorePH #TheFoodCrawlers read more

This is one of fine dining place You'll be more than happy to go back to. Their pizza are topnotched. You can really taste that they are using the finest ingredients and the smokiness in the pizza you can't taste elsewhere as they cooked their pizza is a special stone oven made from Mt. Vesuvius. Highly recommended is their award-winning DOC pizza and quattro formaggio pizza. Their porchetta is truly a masterpiece they make on their own. This August they are having their anniversary lunch special where you can enjoy a wide range of Italian appetizers, fresh salads, pizzas and drinks for only P600 on weekdays and P900 on weekends from 11am to 3pm. Aside from that you get a choice of pasta as your main dish. You can also enjoy a porchetta or other meat dishes as main course with an additional P300 only. A true feast you dont want to missed. read more

*Note: This is a 4.5 Star review. My husband has brought me here 3 times already and every visit has been fantastic! If you are looking for a special, private evening with your partner or close friends, I would suggest going to Salvatore Cuomo. Honestly, I know I've reached the "Tita" mode when, on a Saturday night, I'd prefer a sit down restaurant, have a cheese platter, and drink a good, long cocktail. Before I talk about the food, Salvatore is a high end Italian restaurant with Japanese influences. It is owned by Italian-Japanese Chef Salvatore Cuomo and he specializes in Neapolitan pizza. So, yes, this is a franchise in Japan. But, even though it is a franchise, the food is definitely fast food material. We were here for lunch and also dinner + drinks. To start off every meal, they serve you a freshly baked bread basket. I dip the bread in olive oil with balsamic vinegar. Yum! For lunch, we usually get the set meals! It comes with an appetizer plate, the main dish (pizza or steak), and gelato for dessert. For the pizza, I recommend that you order the D.O.C Pizza - Salvatore's signature, award-winning pizza! It is a cheese based pizza topped with basil and the sweetest cherry tomatoes. It's very simple but, the flavors are just perfect. The fresh ingredients make this pizza so delicious! Now, apart from the food, they serve good cocktails here! You have to try their Sangria! It is served in this HUGE goblet. I can drink 2-3 in one sitting... which I have done already! haha! Just be ready to shell out a bit of money. But, again, this is not an everyday restaurant. Plus, it is a place to have good conversations with friends. I would recommend Salvatore Cuomo for any night of the week. You don't have to sit down and have an over the top meal like I did every night because you can grab a small bite to eat at the bar and it's just as good. read more

We celebrated our friend's birthday here. We weren't able to make a reservation but they were considerate enough to provide a table for 6 in 20 to 30 mins The food was great. They started with a bread basket. There was focaccia bread bites that were sublime We had the four cheese pizza glazed with honey and the cold cuts platter to start ---parmaham was really good. Then we had the prosciutto pizza, carbonara and clam pasta. My favorite was the t bone steak. They placed salt, pepper and some pesto on the side for us to add taste. We preferred the medium well grill and they got it perfectly good. Great with a bottle of red wine We wanted to surprise our friend with the traditional birthday cake sing a long and the staff were really game. In addition to our cake, they brought out a chiffon cake with whipped cream and cherries. Great place to celebrate read more

When it comes to great Italian restaurant here in Manila, Salvatore Cuomo is the only one that comes to mind. Located at the hippest place in BGC, the Uptown Parade. Salvatore Cuomo is a franchise from Japan. Named after the chef, it is the best Italian restaurant in Japan that maintains high standards and quality ingredients to whip up their menu. The luxurious interior combined with the open kitchen shows the their confidence in showcasing how they prepare everything. The restaurant has also a wine chiller and a small aging room for their prosciutto. Their menu brings you to the towns of Italy in every bite. I remember eating their Caprese con Mozzarella di Buffala. Sweet and fresh cherry tomatoes balanced with some buffala mozzarella cheese and finished off with olive oil. It's simple and straightforward. They also have the neopolitan pizza. I really loved the rustic, burnt crust topped with fresh ingredients. (e.g. margherita and four cheese) I also tried some of their entrees like the lamb chops and the salmon. It was well cooked. It's as simple as it is, minimal seasoning and classical sauces to highlight the flavor of the meat itself. The best part of our dinner was the dessert. Tiramisu and Panna Cotta was the best. The Panna Cotta has a soft, creamy texture. It was just perfect. It has a an almond essence which I personally dislike. I'm not a fan of almond essence, but the whole dessert is just perfect (disregarding the almond). Their menu prices are abit higher than the usual restaurant in BGC, but worth every penny, combining the ambience and the quality of food they serve. Good thing with Salvatore, they've just started a LUNCH menu, with a lower price, good for business meetings and quick lunch for the busy crowd of BGC. #TheFoodCrawlers #SplatMNL #OngsFoodprints read more

Great ambiance and very friendly. They greet you in Italian as you enter and leave...reminds me of the Japanese restaurants in Tokyo. I love the open kitchen! SERVICE - excellent and very accommodating. I told them hold my main for a short break and they happily did it. Johanna was a very gracious server and consistently replicated by others. She was really good though and knew what customers needed before you even asked (at least me). Daniela (I think she's a manager) was also very attentive and really monitored customer needs very well. The Shiraz I had was good. I had THREE! Mushroom soup with Shrimps- amazing!!!! Huge! I could not finish but definitely good for 2. Porchetta- Out of this world!!!! Served with mixed veggies and the pork was perfectly cooked! Presentation is everything and if flavor came with it, that takes you straight to heaven! That's what Salvatore's Porchetta did to me. Great job chef and team! To end the meal...grappa and an espresso! Perfect! Wishlist - 1. Nice shaded smoking area (for lunch customers) 2. Door person dedicated to open and close the heavy door for customers. Especially when you first walk in. First impression is everything. 3. Unfortunately a little hot when seated by the door during lunch. Not really so bad logistically but it would help to maybe have tinted windows, front shades, stronger aircon or a different lunch smoking area that is convenient. read more

After reading a number of reviews about Salvatore Cuomo I decided it was time to go and check the place out. The ambiance is quite "hip", and very nice. The cuisine is Italian with a strong Japanese influence. Tip: The service here is very good; they even provide baskets for ladies to place their bags in - a very nice touch! On to the food - the complimentary bread they start you off with looks like a basket full of Dunkin Donuts muchkins; that's also a good thing in my book ;-) We tried several dishes, but none of them was better than just AOK - the Tagliere Di Affettati was nothing more than some salami served with two kinds of ham. Even their pizza missed the mark... Our server suggested we try the DOC (sort of a margarita pizza). It wasn't anything to write how about - quite bland actually :-( We also tried several of their pastas. While both the fettuccine scampi and the spaghetti vongole were tasty, neither of them was served with a portion size that loaned itself to sharing. I will say that our dessert (tiramisu with ice cream and a flourless chocolate cake) was really good! All things considered, I'd come back to try some of their other non-pizza dishes, but I'm not in a rush for a repeat experience. read more

Salvatore Coumo studied italian cuisine and started it in Japan. Now, it is in the Philippines and we can enjoy their wonderful dishes. As they say, italian cuisine is not about being fancy but truly just simple dishes using the best ingredients available that let's you enjoy natural flavors. And that is what I have experienced while dining in Salvatore Coumo. For starters, you can try their Caprese Con Mozzarella di Bufala. The cherry tomatoes is really sweet plus the mozzarella cheese, it is amazing! Their Tagliere di Affettati is also a must try. The parma ham, neopolitan salami and mortadella ham is really good. Paired with their Sangria, Moscow Mule or Kamikaze, it is perfect! They also take pride in their pizza. They imported their very own oven with volcanic rocks. I've tried the classics Margherita and Quattro Formaggi. It is really refreshing and I truly enjoyed the fresh tomatoes and the honey together with their cheeses adds a new dimension in its flavor. These two here are now officially included in my favorite pizza list. For their pasta, you should try their Spaghetti alle Vongole, Spaghetti alla Spuma di Carbonara and Fettuccine alla Bolognese. I also loved their Risotto ai Funghi Porcini. Great flavors and awesome italian dishes. I also like their meats. I really loved their Agnello alla Griglia. These lamb chops are really tender and melts in your mouth. Their rib eye Tagliatta di Manzo is also a great choice. The meat is juicy and tender. Their Filetto Di Salmone Gratinato al Vincotto is also great! Perfect for salmon lovers like me. Of course it does not end there. Now let us go to desserts! I love the bittersweet flavor of their Chocolate Walnut Mousse. The consistency of their Amaretto Pannacotta with Fresh Mango sauce is also awesome. And the combination of their Tiramisu with Pistacio Gellato is divine. So if you are looking for a fine dinning experience to celebrate special occasions or just to simply enjoy great italian food, Salvatore Coumo will definitely be the place for you. read more

Salvatore Cuomo has an interesting bit of history. It's origins began when a Japanese-Italian chef opened an Italian restaurant in Japan. From there, they started to branch out because the food was just so good. There are a lot of dishes to love in Salvatore Cuomo. For appetizers I highly recommend the Mozzarrella di Bufala Caprese and the Tagliere di Affettati. For Pizza you have to try the Quattro Farmaggi and the Porcini e Porchetta. As for their Pasta selection, I highly recommend the Risotto ai Funghi Porcini and the Tagliatelle alla Crema con Gamberi e Spinaci. For mains, I'm a meat guy so I loved the Tagliata di Manzo (Rib-eye) and the Agnello alla Griglia (Lamb Chops). All these dishes are available in their updated lunch menu! Check out my blog post for a more details review. Cheers, Chef Jay read more

I would only go here for rare, special occasions because it's so expensive here :( However, I had a chance to visit this place recently to try out their new lunch menu. I was surprised that the resto is Japanese-owned but has authentic Italian dishes (from ingredients shipped from Italy to equipment and prep style). Their pizza is really good because of its right amount of topping to dough ratio. Also, the authentic style of making the pizza is a plus for me. I also tried their pasta (penne with Italian sausage I tried the Sangria, which is in a huge goblet! This is a good deal for long nights in dates or with friends. The best way to finish our meal is with tiramisu, my favorite dessert. I like the ambience of the restaurant especially its cool restroom (check out the Japanese-style toilet with lots of buttons!). Parking is also nearby so it's hassle-free for people bringing cars. The lunch menu is available from 11AM to 5PM, Monday to Friday. This is a good break time for the people working or studying in BGC. I would definitely go back to try out the rest of the menu items and have a treat-yo-self/chill night out :) read more

This is an interesting restaurant in every way. Just reading the guy's story is pretty cool - Anyone who's visited Japan knows that it's not easy to get around there as a foreign, let alone doing business and becoming so successful feeding the Japanese Italian food. The pizza was obviously outstanding, with the classic Napoli chewy dough and rich and smooth cheese, plus (very salty) meats to ensure you know you are getting a taste of Southern Italy. There was a fish dish that was great too, but it was sauteed like chinese style which was a little odd. Beef platter was awesome, maybe not super impressive for Americans but for locals the quality of meat was very high. Desserts - MUST try Tiramisu and Affogato!! Don't know where they get their gelato but it's like smooth beyond belief, esp in the country where American-style ice cream still dominates. Overall an amazing dining experience, better go quickly before all those Uptown constructions are done, after which I'm sure ALL the seats will be taken in no time. read more

Rating: 4.5 Stars Salvatore Cuomo, an Italian-Japanese chef opened his namesake restaurant in Uptown Paradise, BGC just last June 2016. He is famous for using the highest quality of ingredients and the most traditional of techniques to honor his homeland. The restaurant has a fully-open kitchen that one can marvel on the skills of the chefs; and a spacious and comfortable dining room where one can relax and lounge. Truly, one can experience the best of Italy here. We started with Tagliere di Affettati (Php550), a selection of traditional Italian cold cuts, which included fine slices of Salami, Prosciutto, Coppa, and Mortadella. They tasted as fresh as the ones I had in Italy. We also relished on Mozzarella di Bufala Caprese (Php750), fresh buffalo mozzarella pieces and cherry tomatoes. The silky cheese is so soft and the tomatoes are sweet and refreshing. It is a recommended dish to start any meal. The pizzas here are classics. They are made in the most authentic Napoli-style. The dough is not crispy but chewy, and the center is soft. The proper way to eat this kind of pizza is to fold it in half and eat. Here at Salvatore Cuomo, pizzas are cooked in a brick oven, made in Italy and from the volcanic rocks of Mt. Vesuvius. The thin-crusted dough highlights the quality of the toppings, mostly imported from Japan and Italy. Buffalo Mozzarella and Japanese cherry tomatoes are used as base toppings for their pizzas. We first sampled on Margherita (Php580), a flavor that symbolizes the colors of the Italian flag. It is made with marinara sauce, basil, and mozzarella. Simple use of ingredients that highlighted its freshness. We also tried Quattro Formaggi (Php620), the four-cheese pizza. Eating it with a drizzle of honey provides a unique yet true Neapolitan experience. For a meatier flavor, we feasted on slices of Porcini e Porchetta (Php590). The succulent chunks of Italian pork roasted to perfection, partnered with the earthy taste and silky texture of the porcini mushrooms provides a rich and balanced flavor, and with the freshness of basil leaves, bring out the best in this dish any pizza-lover will truly enjoy. It probably won't be an Italian restaurant if they did not serve any pasta dishes. Here at Salvatore Cuomo, you can get them as authentic as their pizzas. Their pastas are made fresh everyday and use the highest quality of ingredients to bring out the best of each sauce. The Tagliatelle al Crema con Gamberi e Spinaci (Php390) is my top choice on the menu. The wide and flat noodles are covered in lemon cream sauce then topped with shrimps and spinach. It tasted refreshing and healthy and is best for people who just wanted a light snack, without being bloated. We have tried several main courses as well my personal favorite is the Agnello al Griglia or Charcoal-Grilled Lamb Chops (Php950). My favorite would be the lamb chops because of its melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and smoky flavor with a hint of that charcoal aroma. The charcoal used to grill their meats is from Laos, who is known to make fine, export-quality charcoals. This dish is truly worth coming back for. Other must-try dishes include Filetto di Salmone Gratinato al Vincotto or Pan-Seared Salmon with Vincotto Sauce (Php750), Cotoletta di Vitello alla Milanese or Veal Cutlet Milanese-Style (Php480), and Tagliata di Manzo or US Angus Ribeye with Balsamic Reduction (Php980). A feast is not a feast without desserts, and Italian desserts are worth saving space for. Try their Tiramisu with Pistachio Gelato (Php380): made with real coffee and Mascarpone from Italy, this soft and moist cake has real flavors that won't disappoint. The cool chiffon just slides down your throat that would just give you a sigh of satisfaction. It comes with a cup of pistachio gelato which adds a little creaminess and sweetness to it. Since you're at it, do also try their Amaretto Panna Cotta with Fresh Mango Sauce (P320). The cooked cream tastes like Chinese-style almond jelly, only softer. The mango chunks and sauce adds flavor to the dull dessert and lights up the mood. Torta Caprese or Chocolate Walnut Cake (Php380) is a moist walnut chiffon in a fudgy ganache that is rich yet truly satisfying. It is so addicting that a slice will never be enough. read more

The Good: Authentic Italian food by an award-winning Chef made with ingredients flown in direct from Italy and Japan! What's not to like? The Bad: The place is quite expensive - prepare to spend around P1,200-P1,500 per head. The Pro Tip: You MUST try the D.O.C! It's Salvatore's award winning pizza! The namesake of Japan's most popular celebrity Italian Chef, Salvatore is a proud marriage of Italian food and Japanese perfection. The restaurant offers a wide variety of Italian dishes made with the freshest ingredients flown in from Japan and Italy - their buffalo mozzarella (which they use for the pizza and cheese platters) is flown in twice a week! The must-try dishes for me are as follows: D.O.C Pizza - Salvatore's signature, award-winning pizza. It's a cheese based pizza topped with basil and cherry tomatoes. It may not sound like much, but when you try it - OH BOY! The texture is perfect and the way the flavors complement each other is divine! This pizza exemplifies the beauty of authentic Italian food - Simple recipes prepared with quality ingredients. Possibly the best pizza I've ever had. And I LOVE pizza! Quatro Formaggi Pizza - A simple 4 - cheese pizza served with honey on the side. Try it both with and without the honey. The cheese they use is very fresh and play well with each other. It's not too salty, it's just right. Then the honey provides a good contrast to the salty. I can see how this is one of their best sellers! Cheese Platter - The best way to sample their buffalo mozzarella! A platter of 4 cheeses, dried fruits and some honey - this is a great way to start an excellent meal Will we be coming back: I would come back every week if I could afford to! read more

Sangria, Quattro Formaggi, Filetto di Salmone Gratinato al Vincotto,Homemade Roasted Pork "Porchetta" The seat we had was a bit low, a little uncomfy inf you're wearing skirts and high heels so opt to be seated on the normal seating. Anyways, Good food, Excellent Service, Clean place and price is just about right for the good quality of service. Will be my go to place for dinner with friends and special people. Ciao read more

Gorgeous place, but that's about it The food was subpar, and for the price and that fab kitchen, you'd think it would be worthwhile dining. It was not. My advice? Stay for the drinks, look good drinking, and find your meal elsewhere read more

*Note: 4.5 review I've been wanting to visit Salvatore Cuomo for a while now since I've been hearing a lot of good things about it, especially their cheese pizza. I got the opportunity to go with some of my foodie friends a few weeks back to try out their lunch menu (which is basically the same as their dinner menu, but in smaller portions). I like the idea since it makes everything more affordable, especially for the folks who want to spoil themselves during their lunch break without breaking the bank. I was surprised to discover that the restaurant originated in Japan since everything they offer is Italian - with a lot of their ingredients being shipped in from Italy, so you're getting the most authentic versions possible. It's pretty much like dining in Italy where quality is key. Salvatore Cuomo offers premium casual dining perfect for all kinds of diners, whether it be for couples, families, or friends. My favorites on the menu would have to be the Quattro Formaggi Pizza, the Margherita, the Tagliatelle Gamberi e Spinaci, and the Cotoletta di Maiale. Their lunch menu is available from Mondays to Fridays 11am to 5pm, so if you work in the area, I highly recommend you take advantage of it! read more

Been seeing posts about this place so my friends and I decided to try it. Located at Uptown Parade, not in the mall area. The ambience is really nice, very hip. It's an Italian restaurant with Japanese influence. The lighting is very nice. I love places with Open Kitchens and high ceilings of which this place has both. Feels like a bar in New York. They provide baskets for the ladies where you can place your bags, to me this is a great idea. The service is great. Down to the food. To start, they serve bread, looks like mini donuts(munchkins from dunkin) that was good. We tried the Tagliere Di Affettati which is an assortment of parma ham, salami and mortadella ham, Just OK. Then we had to try their Pizza, they suggested their best seller, The D.O.C (like a margherita pizza)tasted bland, not great. For the Yakitori we tried the assorted(5 kinds) they give you a choice of the skewers topped with the salt or the yakitori sauce, we chose the yakitori sauce but my other friend who tried the skewers with salt said it tasted better. The most satisfying was the pastas we tried, Got the fettuccine scampi and the spaghetti vongole. But It's good for one, not for sharing. Or maybe they can increase the portions of the pasta. The Dessert was good, we had the tiramisu with ice cream and the flourless chocolate cake.I would come back to try their other dishes but I'd skip the Pizzas. read more
