The place is beautiful and comfortable. The food and drinks were really good as well. The only issue I have is with the service time. The server was nice but it was a Tuesday afternoon, not busy at all and the food took a little too long to be served, after we ate, the server took his time to arrive, so we did not want dessert anymore, we just wanted the bill. If you go with plenty of time it would be a good experience the place is nice.

We visit Sapori for dinner, they had a 4 hands especial menú, and what a incredible experience!!! The food was so different and tasty, beautiful presented. We had the lentil salad with shirmp tartare, Tagliatelle di tonno, the filet mignon and the beef tartare. We could decided which one was the best, all of them were amazing. We loved the place that much that we planning to go again next week. The service was on point. And the ambience is nice and relax.
