The waitress was very friendly and professional, and seemed to enjoy her job. The restaurant I have to say was clean well organized, and had a very comforting ambience. Almost like a home like feeling. Listening to the team jovially talk to each other other made you feel that you were at home. I will start out talking about the broccoli salad, OMG, that was outstanding! Though the portion was on the smaller side, the flavor was rich! I had the two for two for two breakfast, which was the two eggs, two pancakes and two strips of turkey bacon. The pancakes ice would say we're very good and of course you can't go wrong when you do eggs correctly like they did. My aunt had some type of pancake that was made into the shape of a bowl and that was phenomenal. I wished I had gotten that. My uncle's egg white omelette was overfilled with fresh vegetables! It looked outstanding. Overall, I would definitely drive back for this restaurant

It was suggested to look on line to the website for pictures-maybe they'll add pics to menu? Another suggestion-add some type of salad with the meat and toppings you are using. I asked for a salad with grilled chix, black beans, avocado, cheese, salsa (which was in a bowl option with a fry bread?) added and little lettuce and it was $15, my opinion that was too expensive; I suspect bec they weren't use to salads being asked for. Most things had a fried something, which I did not want. The food was very tasty. The group loved all the desserts offered, big and sweet!

I wish I would have researched this place for my daughter's first birthday! They have all sorts of toys including various sets from the lovery company. There are gross motor, fine motor, sensory toys, just about anything you can think of. To top it all off, they also have a Cafe. So there's coffee which I really needed that morning and sandwiches as well. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and a bacon, egg and cheese crossaint. At first I wasn't going to order a sandwich but someone else ordered before me and the host had the building smelling delicious from the food. The sandwich was perfect especially with her using real eggs to cook. There is also a seperate area where the birthday party can be set up so you can sing in a seperate room away from all the toys.

Convenientlly located within walking distance to the library and James Weldon Park, this is an unbeatable location for a cafe/bookstore. The bookstore itself is an iconic local business, with the uptown being its second location. The collection of used books is massive, and the multimedia selections range from CDs/DVDs to even board games. The trade in program is a great way to reward patrons and loyal customers, and teachers receive a discount with proof of employment. Makes sure to follow the Instagram for the location as they have an offering of free events like Blackout poetry classes every 2nd and 4th Sunday.

I arrived at 4:10 only to notice they didn't open until 5:00. I thought about leaving but waited, I kept seeing people go in so I called, I was assured they were not open yet. But what they failed to tell me was there is a waiting area inside and a crowd of people had already gotten their name on the list. It's okay, because since I was alone they sat me at the bar (when it was my turn). I ordered the veggie pasta in the garlic cream sauce with grilled shrimp, add some green olives, the briny flavor is so good. Besides having to add salt and pepper to taste it was really good!! The side salad was average, the tomatoes and cucumbers were sliced large and chunky, more for dipping than munching. The garlic bread had a nice crisp to it and was not too greasy. Finally, the clairvoyant barman convinced me to try the bread pudding and I'm not even mad about it! The perfect size (not too big, not too small) pudding, was custardy, a little smoky, and the perfect set. It sliced through like a custard should! I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner but do plan on a wait. I went on a Tuesday night and it was packed at 5:00. The food is worth it, fresh, original, and fabulous!

We had decent service and a bit of entertainment from one of the server bartenders. They were quite busy. It was more like a 3 1/2-star yelp experience. Their menu has a number of options, and I particularly liked the section offering two sizes of their entrees (petite and regular). Plus their meals are pretty reasonably priced, as well. The petite sizes were just right for us. My husband had their beef pot roast with mashed potatoes. He chose fried green tomatoes for his side. He said the meat and the brown gravy were both quite tasty. I had their fried shrimp with fried green tomatoes and sweet potato casserole. I think his meal was better than mine. My shrimp were small; the tomatoes were good, but the sweet potato casserole was topped with way too much brown sugar. I'd still recommend you try this restaurant when on island. You'll be satisfied with the food and the service. Comparatively, it's one of the better choices.

The owner, Massi, is such a nice guy and loves to tell funny jokes. His wife, Sabrina, isn't always there, but she is the sweetest and always provides my family with the best customer service. Because I have been raving about this place so much, all my relatives love it and go there regularly (yes, they go every weekend). Please don't expect Starbucks drinks from there. They serve authentic Italian style coffee, so you will get a hot caffe latte in a tall glass. The macchiato will be in a small espresso cup. Try their hot cappuccino with whole milk so you can experience the authentic way of making cappuccino (they only use one shot of espresso, and they said that's the Italian way!). Italian hot chocolate is also a favorite among European customers. Sandwiches are always great, and my favorite is prosciutto, arugula, Parmesan cheese, and tomato. It's a perfect spot to gather with friends or family. This cafe is a must try. These pictures are from multiple visits within three years.

From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere and the aroma of garlic, olive oil set the tone for a true Italian treat! The menu focuses on traditional recipes made with fresh ingredients. Dishes feel straight out of a family kitchen in Italy. Service is warm and welcoming, adding to the relaxed, family-style vibe. Sapori delivers comforting, classic Italian cuisine that feels both genuine and satisfying. The paninis steal the show with rich parm, aromatic olive oil, and prosciutto that I haven't found since I was in Italy. The coffee drinks are amazing Lavassa served, of course.
