Quick info
About Sapori
Sapori is an Italian restaurant on Clifton Street in Blackpool, owned and run by older Italian gentlemen who keep the kitchen in their own hands. The menu covers the familiar Italian range, from spaghetti marinara and lasagna to a tomato soup served as a starter. The restaurant opens on Mondays, when other Italian places in the area are closed, making it a useful option for an early-week meal. Service runs across lunch and dinner, and the dining room is set up for sit-down meals on site, with a counter for walk-in guests. The team manages the front of house alongside the kitchen, giving the place a personal, family-led feel that returning visitors recognise from year to year.

Customer Review Summary
Most diners praise the Italian cooking, with spaghetti marinara, lasagna, and a notably smooth tomato soup singled out across reviews, alongside warm, attentive service from the older Italian staff. A smaller number report the opposite on service, describing being rushed, cut off mid-order, and rebuffed when asking for parmesan, with one first-time visitor saying they won't return. Portions and food quality draw consistent positive mention.

“Food was average, I live in Blackpool first time visiting won't be visiting again, thought the staff were rude and you felt like you were rushed, my friend asked for parmesan cheese which she got a rude reply, serving drinks over my head, will not go again had better Italian food”

“Was here with my wife 3 years ago. And we came back last few weeks to have our memorable dinner together. Lovely foods as always. We absolutely loved the soup — the tomato soup, in particular, was wonderfully smooth and rich. The service was also wonderful. The gentleman serving us was perhaps a bit shy, but he kept a warm smile on his face the entire time. =) Overall, our experience at Sapori was fantastic. We will definitely be coming back the next time we visit Blackpool!”
