We visited Saputo's based on its long-standing reputation, but unfortunately the experience didn't…read morelive up to our expectations. The atmosphere felt dated, with dark wood-paneled walls and a dining room that seemed geared toward an older crowd. That's not necessarily a negative, but the food was the bigger disappointment. We started with the bruschetta ($14.50), which was not what we expected. Instead of a traditional bruschetta, it was essentially sesame-seed bread topped with olive tapenade, red onions, tomatoes, and olives. It lacked freshness and balance. I ordered the Shrimp Alfredo ($26.00), and it was simply bland. The baby shrimp, fettuccine, and Alfredo sauce came together in a dish that was forgettable and lacked flavor. My husband and son were similarly underwhelmed by their meals. The baked ravioli was probably the best thing we ordered, but even that wasn't particularly memorable. The house salads arrived swimming in Italian dressing, and the house cabernet did nothing to improve the meal. Overall, the food felt dated, heavy, and uninspired. We left wondering how a restaurant with such a strong reputation could serve food that seemed stuck decades in the past. Unfortunately, this is not a place we'll be returning to.

The prime rib was a knock out. Cooked to perfection and resembled the ole 96'er in size. The horseradish and au jus combo with it made it one of the best prime ribs I've ate. Got two meatballs as the side and they were phenomenal as well. Very impressed. Will return

I definitely order off the "sides" menu and leave full and happy. The staff is always great.

My friend and I ate out on the patio which was small but very nice. I had the veal pasta scallopini . It was good but the veal was alittle chewy.

We then got fried mozzarella as an appetizer, which I was pretty disappointed in honestly, it was just cheese sticks and idk maybe that's on me and my expectations but I really would have thought it would have been a bit more elevated at an Italian restaurant. Next was my pasta, now I got the spaghetti carbonara and it wasn't like an carbonara I've ever had. Again maybe I don't know what spaghetti carbonara is and that's why I was disappointed so I put that on me. The pasta was... good enough for the price and then portion was HUGE. The truth is, this isn't an elevated Italian restaurant and more like a family Italian restaurant (nothing wrong with that, just not what I was expecting) They have a massive menu so I would come back now knowing what to expect

NEW YEARS SALAD was so good and everything in the salad seemed to be of high quality. I wish there was a little more dressing but overall the amount of dressing would prob be great for the normal person. I ordered the FUSILLI AL PESTO and it was so good. I added shrimp to it and it went well with the flavor. The bread they bring out was so soft and delicious. We could have eaten another loaf. We also ordered the pizza and it was so good. The kids ate the whole pizza and said we have to come back here again. I have to say the pizza was not like any other pizza in town.
