Our Story
Since 1975, Salerno’s On the Fox has been part of the Fox Valley community, bringing family recipes, Italian-American favorites, and a welcoming dining experience to St. Charles, Illinois.
Our food is inspired by our family’s Southern Italian roots in Calabria, where food is more than a meal—it is a way of bringing people together. Today, those traditions continue at Salerno’s through homemade pastas, signature sauces, appetizers, pizza, seafood, and classic Italian-American dishes.
Come visit us in our elegant dining room to sample our full menu. Not all items are available for takeout and delivery. Enjoy our view of the beautiful Fox River with patio seating.

Our recipes reflect the flavors and traditions passed down through generations. From homemade pasta and traditional sauces to Italian specialties prepared with care, our menu brings together the familiar flavors of Southern Italy with the Italian-American dishes our guests have enjoyed for decades. We believe that good Italian food should be comforting, generous, and made with attention to detail.
For more than five decades, Salerno’s On the Fox has welcomed generations of guests to St. Charles.
We are proud of our history, grateful for the community that has supported us, and excited to continue sharing our family’s food and traditions with new generations.
Whether you're looking for an Italian restaurant in St. Charles, a place to enjoy dinner along the Fox River, or Italian catering for your next celebration, we invite you to make Salerno’s part of your next gathering.
