For over four decades, La Salière has been storytellers of Italian heritage, born from both ambition and tradition. As the prestigious Fontvieille district rose from the Monaco waters during an era of transformation, The Frittella family, whose culinary legacy stretches back to 1720 with La Sibilla restaurant in Tivoli, opened La Salière's doors in the heart of this new cultural landmark in 1982. Our name pays homage to Benvenuto Cellini's golden salt cellar masterpiece created for King Francis I of France, and just as Cellini's work represented the harmony between Earth and Sea through the figures of Cybele and Neptune, La Salière bridges the timeless traditions of Italy with the refined atmosphere of the French Riviera.

Our restaurant found its home in a neighborhood where streets bear the names of Renaissance masters: Giotto, Donatello, Michelangelo, Botticelli, and Cimabue. This artistic heritage flows through everything we do, from our olive tree in our logo, symbolizing peace and our deep connection to Mediterranean soil, to our commitment to elevating dining into an art form. For over four decades, we've welcomed residents and visitors from around the world, each leaving with stories of warmth, authenticity, and the unmistakable feeling of being transported to the Italian countryside while gazing out at the French Riviera.
Today, we're honored to bring this legacy to Naples, Florida, our first expansion beyond the city that shaped our identity, continuing the story that began centuries ago in the hills of Tivoli and flourished along the Mediterranean coast.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
From Tradition
to Table
At La Salière, every experience begins with respect for the ingredients and techniques that have defined Italian cuisine for centuries. Our culinary approach honors the seasonality and simplicity that make Italian food so beloved, while our service style reflects the refined elegance we've cultivated in Monte-Carlo.
We believe dining is theater - each course a scene, each flavor a story, each moment designed to transport you from Naples, Florida to the sun-drenched terraces of the Mediterranean. Our team approaches every evening with the understanding that we're not just serving food; we're creating memories that will be treasured long after the last sip of wine.
