Visited twice after sale to new owner. Was not thrilled with the food or service. We used to eat there twice a month. Will try again - hopefully they have worked out any issues they may have had as new owners. The bar seems to...have it’s regulars and appears to do a good job as a neighborhood bar. We will visit again soon to try the food again.More

Cruising by after running our errands. Stopped in for a beer and ended up staying for food. Great beer selection...local two goats love that beer. Wife got a mushroom burger..great burger great fries...I got the buffalo shrimp...good stuff presented well. Good bang for your buck....The kitchen was busy but did a nice job with the food. Bartender was busy but did a great jobMore

Stopped here and had a couple glasses of wine, a good recommendation from the bar tender. Just a bar render and a waiter worked the bar and restaurant, and it seemed a challenge to keep up. Very much a locals bar - felt like the...other patrons tolerate tourists in town but don't like them.More

We saw this place on our way to our motel and thought it looked good. When we did arrive to the motel we asked for a place to get a drink and a meal and this is one of the places the manager suggested. Sals...isn't to big and it was crowded when we got there. So we sat at the bar. It looked like a lot of locals were eating there, so I thought that was a good sign. I thought right! The staff was very welcoming and attentive. The menu is a typical pub menu, and the food we ordered was pretty good. Even though it was pretty much a local place, we never felt uncomfortable or out of place. If we were closer at dinner time the next night I would've returned.More

This friendly bar is just steps away from the falls at the end of Main Street. We were really pleased with the food and service, and it seems this place is underappreciated because it should have been packed on a Saturday night. The burger is...one of the best I've had recently, but the Jack Daniels chicken wrap is amazing! There are local craft beers and local wines, as well as some very fine Scotch and standard beer brands. The bartender and "regulars" are super friendly, as is just about everyone in town. On the way to Watkins Glen? Give Sal's a try.More

I live in Watkins and also work in a local restaurant. I was impressed with the staff, the food and the cost! Brandon was great as was Stephanie ( I believe her name is). I will definitely be back soon!

We went with two other couples. The bartender/waiter was on the spot. But there were two large groups also there. The kitchen got a little behind to the point of us fisherman joking we could catch a crappie and prep it before they get our...order to us. The food was fine though and the libations flowed. We come to Sal's often. When it's tourist season enjoy, but prepare more than an hour and relax.More

For a very small bar & grill they a really big on taste.. Do the golden wings, they are to die for. The drinks are a hit or miss depending on the bartender. The atmosphere is really nice and pleasant.

My wife and I go to Sal's at least one a month for wings and bacon cheese fries. The staff is always great and they have a nice selection of pub food.

Nice place to chill after a long drive, sit down and enjoy a meal or app. And a cold beer. The views are good step outside for a smoke and look up at Montour Falls.

Sal's is good if they aren't busy/don't get behind - but if they get busy or behind in the kitchen the quality tends to suffer!

This place may get overlooked by people focusing on busier Watkins Glen eateries and watering holes but they are missing out on a very nice alternative just a few miles down the road. Awesome food and great mixed drinks with a good beer selection on...tap as well. And the service? You couldn't beat it. Very clean, pleasant place.More
