Our story

Three generations, one recipe book.

Sapore began in 1998 when Nonna Lucia traded her kitchen in Bologna for a small storefront downtown. Today her grandchildren run the pass, still using her handwritten recipes and the same copper pots.

The best tagliatelle I've had outside Bologna. We go back every month.

Incredible atmosphere, attentive staff, and a Margherita that rivals anything in Naples.

Osso Buco was a revelation. Wine pairing suggestion from the sommelier was perfect.
