    This place has gotten even better in recent times. The food is well-prepared, the service is the best - especially when you get to chat with the owner! - and I cannot wait to go back for more.

    Sabatino’s is always good. We live on the other side of the state and eat here every time we’re in Rapid. We have two young girls and we take them everywhere with us. They don’t have a kids menu, which is completely fine, yet they still accommodated our daughter’s request for pesto on her spaghetti rather than the marinara as it was on the menu. Much appreciated! Service was awesome. We’ll be back!

    Not only was the food excellent, hot and delicious, the house wine was tasty and service was prompt! The atmosphere ambience was soothing as it should be in a restaurant like that and Sabatino was very courteous friendly and most welcoming.

    Food was amazing. They were out of a few dishes that I would have liked to order, but all the food we received was delicious. Be aware that they ran out of too many items while we were eating so cut off new diners even though it was only a little after 8:00. As for reservation we found out they don’t mean much on busy nights. There was no host at the stand and when somebody would finally come up front, they didn’t ever check to see when reservations were actually set up for. Just asked who was next in line. Luckily 2 couple with reservations in front of us left to head down the street, so we didn’t have to wait an extreme amount of time. Maybe it’s not such a service mess on less busy nights though. Again - food was wonderful though!

    Food was delicious, but they run the entire restaurant with only two servers. I recommend going for the food if you are in a patient mood and have no time constraints. Date night only

    Nice experience during our local restaurant week. It was in January and the restaurant was a bit cool so I would suggest increasing the indoor temperature so it's more comfortable. Ordered a pasta special and they offered parmesan cheese, it was the grated from a bottle. For a nicer touch, I would suggest they offered fresh grated at the table. Beer selection is limited.
