    We live about 70 miles away from Baltimore, haven't been to Sabatinos in 5 years, and decided to have dinner after the Ravens game. It was 8 pm on a Saturday & the place was dead. Furthermore, the interior looks exactly as it has the last 40 years (including carpet) and tableware. The food was good, we've always loved bookmaker salad, but Sabatinos is a shadowy reflection of what it used to be. In fact, most of Little Italy looked deserted it was quite sad. Ambiance left a lot to be desired, but service was still top-notch. It's a shame.

    We went for an early New Year’s Day dinner. Our server Kitty was lovely offering great suggestions . She was very attentive bringing us our next round of drinks… but then she took the straws out of our empty glasses and put them in our new drinks touching the top that you put in your mouth. Grossed out we didn’t use the straws. Then she delivered our meals…. One of the pasta dishes the sauce spilled over the edge so she took a dirty /used napkin from the table next to us to wipe the edge of the plate and touched the pasta. I’m the process. Again we were grossed out and removed the pasta from that edge of the plate. The food was just ok nothing special, the veal was overcooked and tough. The lack of common sense cleanliness was a bit shocking and made us wonder what the kitchen was like.
