Our Story

A Family Table on Ocean Blvd

Welcome to Pepe e Sale Wine Bistro. Our focus is simple: modern Italian dishes, a focused wine list, and a fine dining atmosphere that still feels like someone's table, not a stage. We built this place to bring exceptional cuisine and honest service to the community we're part of — to enjoy with family and friends, the way it should be.

– Famiglia Cavallaro

From the Cellar

Wine Isn't an Afterthought Here

A short, well-chosen wine list beats a long, indifferent one — that's the whole philosophy behind ours. Italian reds that actually match the menu, a few bottles worth the splurge, and a staff that will tell you honestly which glass suits your table tonight, not just what's easiest to sell.

This was our third visit and every time our expectations are taken to another level. The Frutti di Mare with a little extra heat hit the mark…

Fantastic meal. We had the salt crusted Bronzino and it was fabulous — I even asked for the potatoes' secret recipe.
