"Interesting varied menu all at reasonable prices. I would recommend the Antipasti and /or Insalatas to share, and a main from the Entrees rather than the Pizza/Pasta sections. They seemed rather boring and of less value.
Drinks menu was varied and reasonably priced. Asked the server to "go slow" so we could have a relaxing evening there, and she did that perfectly.
All food was very well presented and tasty - very sufficient quantity but not too much. Hot plates as well!
Downside was that as our booking was for 7.30pm the restaurant was emptying as we arrived (closes at 9pm on a Saturday) and lacked ambience. The bar area seemed more lively and I would eat there on a return visit. We were last to leave at 9.15pm!"

"Our server did not check on us consistently to see if we needed more water as there were multiple times we were out of water. As well, the fettucine pasta was bland as well as the veggie pizza and chicken marsala."

"Have passed this restaurant numerous times and finally decided to visit. We weren't disappointed. Excellent service and our meals were delicious.For starters we had the mussels and the prawns...exceptional! Main course - my partner thoroughly enjoyed the veal and I had a mushroom filled pasta. Truly enjoyed our evening!"

"Great atmosphere, service and food. This was my first time at Sabatinos and from the moment we entered the restaurant it had a warm welcoming vibe, we were immediately shown to our table, servers were knowledgable with the menu and making recommendation on what to eat. The in house sangria was amazing, good size portions for the food. Dinner was amazing, meat was cooked perfectly and nice mix of seasonal veggies with a hint of fresh herbs and spices and to top it off the desserts were incredible!!!!! Definitely will be going back."

"This restaurant is a wonderful choice if you love Italian food. It is even better if you choose to eat Gluten free. I went there originally because I had an entertainment book coupon but was very pleasantly surprised with their full, separate gluten free menu. I had a WONDERFUL gluten free pizza which was delicious! As a pizza lover who is off gluten, to find a GOOD gluten free pizza is true heaven. The regular menu is full of many wonderful items and has something for everyone. Daily specials and a wonderful wine list. A must visit for anyone heading out for a nice dinner....and if you have cut out gluten and struggle in regular restaurants, you have GOT to check this place out."

"I find Sabatino's my go-to place for an early afternoon lunch whilst working my email. On-line access is easy, the food and service are terrific....and I can find a nice corner in the bar area where I can focus, watch some golf or tennis on the numerous televisions and cover off a number of items all within the hour. I GREAT place with very nice people, and the food is TOP NOTCH !!!! Try it, you will like it!! CHEERS!"

"What a great surprise when we stumbled upon this restaurant. It was a terrific meal. My husband had Spaghetti Bolognese and it was HUGE! We could have split it but it made a great lunch meal. I had Goat Cheese Spinach Chicken Breast & Pancetta with vegetables. HEAVEN. It was really good. We both had sherbert for dessert - again, we should have shared. We will definitely be going back for another dinner as there was too much to choose from."

"The service was snappy, but the food and wine were mediocre. The house red wine was plonk and the bread basket was meager. I ordered the halibut and it was flaky and tender but there was little else on the plate other than some under cooked vegetables, and not many. The string beans were almost raw. The apple crumble desert was OK but somewhat mealy...I've had a lot better. I've eaten here before when the food was delicious and the servings generous. A lot has changed and not for the good. I will seek out a better restaurant for my next meal."
