"My husband and I came to this restaurant 30 years ago while dating. We moved way out of town. Therefore, we hadn't been here for close to 28 years. When we came backinto town, we chose Sabatinos for our anniversary. It was just like it was nearly 30 years ago."

"The supposedly famous house salad dressing had little taste to it and the same applies to both white and red seafood sauce. We had clams with white sauce on top of pasta and lobster/seafood with red sauce on pasta. Portions were large but taste was bland. Wine list poor on the sparkling wine side, no dry sparkling wine except champagne was available, i.e. no prosecco on the list."

"I do recommend for large groups, we were very well attended and the service and staff is super friendly and accommodating. If you are a foodie, this is not the place to find your gourmet Italian meal. If you are in the mood for a more generic homemade pasta, then this is the place for you. For what it was, I felt it was a little pricey. The wine was very good."

"The food was essentially tasteless. The salad was drenched in dressing and the bread was gloppy. I had the veal Florentine and it was very tough and rested on a bed of what appeared to be frozen spinach that was soggy and had no flavor. Our three year old grandson had the best meal -- meatballs and spaghetti. My husband had linguine with white clam sauce that he said was missing any flavor. All in all not an enjoyable meal. To top it off, it was pretty pricey for what we got."

"My Partner and I visited Baltimore and wanted to try something good in Little Italy. Sabatino's came HIGHLY recommended. We were greeted 3 times by the time we got to our table. Very enthusiastic crew! Placed the order and bread came out immediately. The food was ready within minutes, very quick. My partner ordered shrimp fettuccine. I tasted it, it was DELICIOUS. I ordered the baked ziti. It wasn't as good as I'm used to. I would definitely try Sabatino's again, but I wouldn't get the baked ziti."

"I grew up in Balto but haven't been to Sab's for quite some time - maybe eight years. The last time i went my entire group was disappointed. This time my brother (literally just stepped off the train from NYC) and i went late on Saturday night. Food was great; our server was absolutely delightful. Afterwards, we "walked off" our dinner by hoofing it to Fells Point. Seriously, I don't think we walked all of the calories off but it was a beautiful night and we had a fun walk."

"This was my second time dining at this establishment and I was not disappointed. The first time was for brunch and the experience was excellent; this time it was for dinner with my friend for his birthday. The service was excellent and the food was scrumptious! Great portions, fresh and delicious food and the service was great!"

"We have not been to SABATINO'S for a few years but decided to combine an Orioles day game and overnight stay in Baltimore with dinner there. Both our entrees, shrimp fra diavolo and shrimp renato were excellent. The salad was huge and fresh. Our waitress, Lachelle, was personal, attentive and accurate in her service."

"Sabatino's recently hosted my twin daughters' after-prom dinner and they were JUST so good to them. I am very thankful. We have been patrons for decades and it is one of our very favorite restaurants. I cannot recommend them enough. The wait staff is one of the very best parts of the experience. They are funny/kind and attentive. And don't miss the gnocchi with the pink sauce!"

"What a gem. Not sure I would bother trying any other restaurant when visiting Baltimore.
Sabatino's was exactly what we were looking for. A local restaurant with tradition.
Honestly cannot say enough good things about the place. It had many small rooms so the
atmosphere was quaint. The service was phenomenal. Everyone was so gracious. The
food was excellent from the entree's to the bread and salad dressing. It is glaringly
obvious why this restaurant was full at 6:00 on a Sunday when other restaurants in the
same neighborhood we not even open for business. No small wonder why they have been
around as long as they have.

"Sabatino's is not the newest or trendiest in Little Italy, but it is the most comforting. It is like going back to your Mother's for a meal. PRICELESS."

"My friends and I chose Sabatino's based on a recommendation from a co-worker. The staff was friendly, but the restaurant interior was worn looking. The food lacked flavor and was very bland. The garlic bread seemed to hold the only seasonings based on the four different menu items we ordered. We won't judge Little Italy based on this restaurant, we'll try another one."

"We didn't like the House Dressing. It had the texture of chalk. I would say our experience was just average. I don't think I would return. I did, however, like our waitress very much."

"Sabatino's has been around for years. We had sort of forgotten about it for a few years.
But we happened in there early on a Sunday afternoon and had a great lunch. So we
decided to spend my birthday there. Kitty is a wonderful waitress and took great care
of us. My husband and one of our guests had the 16 oz sirloin steak. They both loved it.
My sister and I chose Italian staples Manicotti and Lasagna. Both were perfect.
We loved the garlic bread. It is just as good now as it was 20 years ago.
The really great thing is they now have valet parking. Worth every bit of the $10.00 it
cost. Parking is really what kept us away from Little Italy for years.
All in all it was a great choice for us.

"This was some of the worst restaurant food we've ever had. Except for the salad, none of the ingredients were fresh. Meat was tough from being frozen from long periods of time, meat sauce was abysmal, house dressing had an extremely odd texture. Save yourself some money and get your dried pasta and canned sauce from the grocery store instead of Sabatino's."

"We had 5 diners. Most liked their food except the calamari was chewy. Sausage and pepper app was overcooked as well. Our waitress would not fall into the rude category but was more just someone going through the motions waiting for the day to end. She had very little personality or chose to kerp it to herself. Slow to replenish drinks as well. Our experience took a turn for the worse when a large party of young adults were seated in middle of the room..they became so loud that you could not hear the person next to you speak.There were never any attempt by the restaurant to quiet this table. They allowed it to go on and on.
Overall food was ok but not great and tbe atmosphere was terrible.

"This was the first time we had eaten at Sabatino's and we can't wait till we go back!!! Food and service was excellent. Occasion was a 40th birthday and the staff accommodated the birthday well. We were actually a half hour early and we were seated immediately. No waiting at all. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for fantastic Italian cuisine."

"Great food. We loved the atmosphere. The waitress could have been better. However, because it was Valentines night she might have been overwelmed. She took my water glass to refill it and never brought it back. It took a while to get her to take our order. However, overall it was a great experience. This was the first time my wife and I have ever been there."
