First off this place is a 5 star 🌟 end of story. Walked in to be greeted like family by ALL staff. Pablo was our waiter. 10 stars!! Sat very nicely. The atmosphere is super chill, easy to converse with guests, such a cute place. My family and I ordered a plethora of food to try it all. We started with the meatballs, seafood stuffed mushrooms, and the Burrata Caprice. They all knocked our socks off.

The atmosphere is super chill, easy to converse with guests, such a cute place. My family and I ordered a plethora of food to try it all. We started with the meatballs, seafood stuffed mushrooms, and the Burrata Caprice. They all knocked our socks off. Our main courses were Gnocchetti creamy avocado pesto, Rigatoni alla Vodka, Fettuccine Alfredo with vegetables, Seafood bisque, and a pair of side salads. Not enough to say about EVERYTHING and everyone here. We were all completely impressed. Next time in Austin we will make sure to stop here again.

Delicious Pasta in Downtown Austin! We had an amazing dinner at Sapori Italian Roots in Austin! The handmade pasta was the absolute highlight—fresh, delicate, and cooked to perfection. The sauces were flavorful and balanced, enhancing the pasta without ever overpowering it. The service was just as memorable—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. Every dish we tried tasted thoughtful and authentic. If you’re craving authentic Italian food with heart and hospitality, Sapori is definitely worth a visit.

Tried their Rigatoni alla vodka and it was absolutely delicious. It was so good that I just had to try their Tiramisu (was too full to have it on site so I got it to go and it was delicious too when I had it few hours later). Service was friendly. The inside is much better than the outside so don't judge it from the outside. Price guide (as of Oct 2025): Rigatoni alla vodka $19.50 Pinot noir $13 Tiramisu $7 Tax $3.27

I quite literally stumbled upon this restaurant by mistake, and so glad I did! My brother-in-law, and my mother-in-law both loved it as well. I got the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, my brother-in-law got the rigatoni, and my mother-in-law got the gnocchi pasta with pesto. Everything arrived fairly quickly, with a unique bread and oil and vinegar sauce as well, and the service was absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere is pleasant, very relaxed, and I would totally come here again. Love the staff here!

I really enjoyed my experience here! Our server, Anthony, helped us come to a decision about to get and was very attentive throughout our visit. Moreover, they started us off with some delicious bread, which we all enjoyed with the oil. For dinner, I had the Rigatoni Alla Vodka, and it was delicious with some added cheese & pepper. My friend got the Lasagna and that it was just okay. And, my other friend got the Chicken Parmesan, and loved the pasta, but the chicken wasn’t her favorite. Overall, would say we had a good time, and we will definitely be recommending it to others!
