- GGinavipChicago / Illinois •3 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoSapori 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.More infoSapori TrattoriaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Lincoln Park•4.7
- EEstefaniChicago / Illinois •3 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 15, 2024Went for a date night, unfortunately we were sat next to a big party who was very loud. Not the fault of the restaurant per se, but the noise does carry. Overall the food was amazing, the service was unbelievably good, and once the big party left, it was much quieter and enjoyable. I’d recommend coming here!More infoPeanut Park TrattoriaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Little Italy / University Village•4.7
