This was a good find for my group not one of us was disappointed with service, food quality/quantity. If I'm ever back this way I would certainly revisit.

Lovely staff, great menu. Felt welcomed. Food was delicious my husband had Sapori Beefburger and I had the ballotine di pollo. We both had the stuffed portobello mushroom to start. All beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Highly recommend

My Friend and I thought the food was good for the cost and the young lady who was waiting on us was very pleasant and helpful. We had booked for an early dinner (5.30) in mid week so it was very quiet.

Had a superb lunch for four in Sapori. Mushroom and squid starters were very good. Pizza was fantastic, as was mushroom risotto and cannelloni. Lasagne was also very good, but much too big for my mum! Service was exceptional - very friendly and efficient. I would say maybe reduce size of lasagne quite a bit, but add a small green salad. That way customers may have room for a starter and/or pudding. Will certainly come again.

I went here with a friend for dinner at 6.30 on a Saturday. It wasn’t too busy. The staff were attentive and the food was nice. I had lasagne and my friend chilli prawn linguine. We also had a bottle of wine.

We arrived early but were shown to a table quickly. We had asked for a side table but none were available at the time (but would have been if we’d arrived on time.) The table we had was adequate but in a draught. The service was excellent and the food outstanding.

Had a lovely time food was a little slow coming out but when it did it was delicious. Sad that the cheesecake wasn't available with so few desserts to pick from that was disappointing but overall had a great time would definitely come back

Waitress was attentive and friendly and professional. Food delicious and delivered very hot (good). I don’t have a huge appetite so portion size too big for me, choice of a smaller size would be nice, as I don’t like wasting food. I will go back again to try other dishes, good first impression.

Good food and friendly, helpful service. Wine should be offered in smaller quantities than 250ml as used to be the case. People shouldn’t have to buy and consume more than they want and I can see no reason why this is not offered.

Great food and the service was ok, there was music when we walked in then it was turned off. Only thing was the Tiramisu it was not traditional, I was plain sponge with what was like tastless cream. And for near £9 not good.

The food we had for our mains was tasty but the tiramisu pudding was runny and undercooked. The waitress was very smiley, friendly, helpful and attentive. It was a bit cold in the restaurant (they had 3 small heater fans blowing so maybe there was a problem with the main heating system) and it was very quiet so not a lot of atmosphere but it was a Tuesday evening so perhaps that's why.

Bit pricey but the food was good. Menu was a bit boring could do with more exciting choices.
