    I remember Sabatinos from my youth in Baltimore. I return whenever I visit the city. It is consistently wonderful with classic and delicious homemade Italian dishes. I love their Bookmakers salad , long a hidden item not listed on the menu, now a popular dish. The service is old school, helpful, friendly but not obtrusive. The atmosphere is historic and cozy. It’s a delight!

    We had an amazing experience from start to finish. I made a reservation for my friends and I to celebrate Galentine’s Day. From the moment I walked in Joey and Kyle greeted me and asked was there anything I needed. Keke was a phenomenal waitress ! She even gave great menu recommendations. I truly can’t say enough about how wonderful everything was from the service to the decor to the food. Joey treated us like family and we cannot wait to go back! If you are looking for a wonderful night out look no further.
