Came here on a Saturday morning right when they opened. There were only 2 other people in there and…read morewe ordered first. I would like to say that I come here alot and have always loved the food and had great service, but this visit was different. We ordered our sandwiches to go so maybe the was the issue? We ordered 3 sandwiches and they took an incredibly long time to be ready especially since we were the only ones who had ordered. The person who took our order was not friendly either. As they were making our sandwiches they were also complaining about how they didn't want to be at work. Usually I'd give acoustic 5/5 stars, the food is amazing but the atmosphere today was off.

I'm obsessed with this place! What a cute and warm cafe with such a chill ambiance. I loved the…read morecharming and rustic decor; the psychedelic art was what caught my eye. I tried the Heath Bar coffee and a combo whole hoagie, which was enough for both me and my husband so very generous portions. The bread was hot and fresh (housemade!) and not soggy from the meat and sauce. While I did enjoy the Heath Bar coffee, it was definitely on the sweeter side. I'd ask for another shot of espresso next time to balance it out or ask for less sweet. Delicious hoagies and great service. I had a great time catching up with my friends here and I'd love to come back again to enjoy their live music!

"It's a Sicilian message. It means Luca Brasi sleeps with the fishes." (The Godfather)…read more At Sapori di Sicilia, the message is considerably more appetizing: "Eat the pasta and nobody gets hurt." Walking in for the first time, I half-expected owner Eric Mullen to greet me with cotton-stuffed cheeks and a brooding stare. Instead -- as one Yelp reviewer memorably noted -- Eric looks like he's straight out of Super Mario, more likely to trade you a heavenly mocha for three gold coins than make you an offer you can't refuse. After a four-month pilgrimage to Italy in 2018 to learn the art of Sicilian cooking, Mullen returned to Winona and opened Sapori in 2020, filling a gap in the local food scene roughly the size of a horse head in a mobster's bed. The city desperately needed authentic Italian food, and Sapori delivered. No favors owed. No strings attached. *This time.* Everything here is made by hand: pasta, sauces, bread, pastries, and the gelato. The whole operation, with no shortcuts. The Bronze-cut Pasta: It clings to the sauce with the loyalty of a wartime consigliere who knows exactly where the bodies are buried. The pistachio pesto stands out, though it could use a touch more olive oil or pasta water. A minor grievance that doesn't warrant a trip to the river bottom in concrete shoes. The Pastries and Cakes: Genuinely dangerous. The Mascarpone cheesecake and chocolate cake slice are to die for -- and I mean that in the most Sicilian sense possible. Eat them. Tell no one. The Gelato: Should be under federal investigation. Light, creamy, and so authentically Italian it practically has its own accent. The pale green pistachio is rich, nutty, and deeply serious about its heritage. The Vibe: Warm. Hospitable. A real hit, but with zero cleanup crews required. The Verdict: Leave the gun. And for the love of all that is holy, take the cake and gelato too. You don't need a passport, a secret handshake, or a letter of introduction from a guy who knows a guy. Just show up hungry and show the proper respect.

I had paid for a 16 oz but when I put it into my mug, it was more like a 12 oz... and thank god for that as I didn't like it one bit! It tastes quite bad!! I don't think I like the way they make the espresso. Something tastes terribly off! Maybe it's the oat milk they use? Seems thin and not at all rich, more like almond milk than oat milk. Anyway, the patio seating is great! We enjoyed sitting outside. But the food and drinks... nah~! Maybe I would try their smoothie instead next time, as they looked a lot more appetizing !

We decided to grab dinner and had heard about "The Boathouse" from someone at work. We pulled up and I actually thought it was a little "fast food" burger/sandwich shop. When I walked in, I was somewhat puzzled as it had a full bar and very quaint seating overlooking the Mississippi River. The waitress was fabulous and immediately seated us and took our drink order whiling showing us their menu for the day. Unbelievably delicious is all I can say. Everything was homemade and perfectly cooked. If you love Walleye, this is the place to stop. I really can't say it enough - Best Walleye I've EVER had!!
