Sapori Italian Restaurant – Marina del Rey

Large small Italian restaurant from the beaten path. The entrances are very tasteful and the chef often turns through a selection of unique and tasty specialties. Great outdoor ambience on the water. Definitely worth a repeat journey!

I wanted to celebrate my achievement of getting my DMV license. My mom 's said there was a good. Italian in Fisherman Village. Sapori Italian Restaurant. We went. We had a delicious artichoke and garlic bulb. I ordered the Fettuccine al something. My mom ordered the seafood risotto. I didn 't like mine. I called the waiter over politely told him I didn 't like it. He said we don 't return food. I said excuse me? Can you make an exception? He said no and shook his head. I said for 24.00 I would think you would exchange it for something I liked instead he gave me a face. The other guests were flabbergasted as well. He ultimately obliged after I refused anything else. Be warned never come here. I could 've been a big time food blogger or critic. Smh

Sapori will always be my FAVORITE Italian place to go!!! Taste is guaranteed. Vibe is right on point. But more so, again, friendliness of the owner is something that you will definitely want to experience. The boss man is the coolest and friendliest person you can ever meet! His thick Italian accent first gets you think ?okay he knows what he?s talking about here.? Then he will take time to explain all of dishes and recommend dishes! And, most importantly, if you are a wine lover, this place is THE PLACE to go. All of their wine choices are top notch classics and you will not be disappointed! My colleague who spent his almost entire life in Europe as a business man visited here with me. He saw the list. And he fell in love with Sapori. MUST VISIT AT ALL COST!!!

Food is well presented, not high priced, and service is good. Avoid going there on weekends, they're very busy. Make sure to pay for automated parking before heading to your table. I had full course meal with my wife, including wine, appetizer dessert and coffee. I especially loved the eggplant appetizer called BABY MELANZANE ALLA PARMIGIANA. I had the salmon well done and asked for extra roasted potatoes. The food was a bit saltier, but I didn't mine.

This place never disappointed. eating is fantastic, and they never rush you and out like so many places in these days.
