Had a dinner there on Wednesday night and the experience was INCREDIBLE! Before I get to the food, the waiters and the staff were very attentive and helpful. Great for a date or a whole group. We had the Caesar salad, mussels and ravioli. Crème Brulé for dessert!!! So warm and cozy.

This is very AMAZING Italian restaurant NEAR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. I read the reviews and took my wife here for our anniversary. This was our first visit and it was amazing. Food was hot, fresh and flavorful. The service was excellent. Highly recommended for an intimate date night or if you just want to get some good Italian food.

Had an amazing date night here at Sapori. Our server Mario was friendly and explained the menu since it was our first time there. We started with the Caesar Salad and the Burrata. The salad was fresh and satisfying. The Burrata was great too. For the entrees, I got the pear and gorgonzola risotto which was perfectly cooked and flavorful. My husband got the seafood risotto and it was lovely as well, with plenty of seafood. This might be our new favorite Italian restaurant in the Montclair!

My husband and I came here on a Wednesday night. It was our first time and we were delighted with the staff, quality of food, and speed of service. Our waiter, Mario, was fast and efficient and made great recommendations. I ordered the chicken parm and it was the best I have eaten! My husband ordered cacio e pepe. Next time I am back, I will try dessert! This is a lovely place for date night or an evening with family.

This place is so cute, it is absolutely perfect for a special celebration or a date night. I had the Cacio Pepe, and it was delicious. It was very light and not greasy at all. Pasta usually makes me full and bloated, but this plate was perfect all around. Thank you for a wonderful experience, Sapori!
