The new place is amazing!...same hospitality and welcoming experience as the old place across the street. The menu has changed a...for the better and there are new selections that add to the experience. I highly recommend the new wedge salad and the bone in rib eye...I wish there was more selection of the dessert menu ...but definitely worth the time. The decor package is beyond awesome and really shines through...no expense was spared and it shows.

Sapori is simply a solid, "go to" in this neighborhood. The food is consistently great and the ambience gives you all of the Chicago feels that you are looking for. It's a great, local spot to bring your out-of-town visitors to! To be safe, make a reservation ahead of time... don't expect to show up and get a table at this restaurant without a reservaton, especially on the weekends.
