Delicious focaccia. Was still warm when we got it home for sandwiches. Friendly help. Updated with a low-key vibe.
I really liked this place, I enjoyed the decor/style and vibe. You order at the counter and then they bring you your food. We both had a panino, I had the verdura and my sister had a panino with turkey. It was a huge sandwich - very good bread and the components were great. Yummy balsamic on the bread. A nice cool place to be on a warm day. I'd go again if I was in town.
My wife and I had a great meal at this little gem of an Italian restaurant in Winona. We were thrilled with the quality of the food which brought back fond memories our recent trip to Italy. All the food tasted authentic to the food that we while in Italy which I think is a great tribute to the chef/owner at this restaurant. To start off, the freshly baked rolls were very good. We decided to take a chance on an interesting menu choice of Brussels sprouts of all things and found it to be a surprisingly good dish and certainly worthy of a try if you'd like to be adventurous or simply enjoy Brussels sprouts. We then moved on to the pasta which was simply delicious. We were curious as to why it was so much better than the pasta served at American restaurants as compared to Italy. The chef explained that they use bronze cut dyes to extrude the pasta giving it the ultimate texture and flavor in the same way that it is made in Italy for generations. You just do not find that quality in the US very often in either restaurants or grocery stores. It was great to come to enjoy this incredible pasta locally. We then moved on to tarts and cannoli for dessert. We were incredibly pleased with the decadent flavors. Finally, we could not resist the Gelato getting Black Cherry and strawberry Gelatos. Both were fantastic and filled with flavor. It was a great experience for us and we look forward to getting back to Winona just to get some more of the wonderfully authentic Italian food at Café Sapori di Sicilia.
Simple atmosphere. Food was tasty and plentiful. Beer hit the spot. Olives Focaccia and beer were good start. Carbonara was good and beef sandwich was good too
This place is legit! The flavors reminded me of a trip I took to Sicily a couple years ago. Italian breakfast is a cappuccino and pastry, which this place does very well. We had a cornetto with our coffee, and I was surprised how much it tasted like the ones I had in Italy! We also had some pasta, and it was very good. The decor of this place is a love letter to Sicily, what a wonderful place.
