For over 20 years, SALA has been serving up some of the city’s best Sicilian fare in their cozy, family-owned East Side restaurant at 2613 E. Hampshire St.
Best known for their full-service dining, the restaurant has recently expanded its hours, adding efficient Italian cafe-style counter service options for both breakfast and lunch. Just pop in, order your items at the bar and a barista will deliver them to you at your chosen table.
