In a foodie county, where dining can range from laid-back coastal to sophisticated culinary, Café Sapori stands out.
The restaurant combines Northern and Southern Italy, with traditional and modern takes. The result is some of the most delicious meals you’ll ever have.
A perfect example is the Risotto Ai Frutti Di Mare ($29), a seafood risotto that puts the restaurant’s Italian sensibility squarely in the spotlight. Simply, it’s risotto with mixed seafood, in a red sauce. The creamy texture of properly prepared risotto makes an ideal foundation for seafood, allowing the flavors of the ocean to remain central while the rice provides richness and substance. It is a natural choice for anyone who wants a more indulgent Italian entrée.
Slightly lighter, the Piadina Con Prosciutto E Rucola ($24), delivers classic Italian flavors in a simple, satisfying sandwich. The flatbread is layered with Prosciutto di Parma, arugula, Parmesan cheese, and tomato. The salty richness of the prosciutto with the peppery arugula is a showstopper, while Parmesan adds another layer of savory depth. It works particularly well for lunch, flavorful and distinctly Italian.

We started out with Caprino Con Bietola, a beet and goat cheese salad ($24). Made with red beets, goat cheese, and hearts of palm, the salad brings together earthy sweetness, creamy tang, and a fresh, crisp element. The vibrant beets also make the presentation particularly beautiful and mouthwatering.
These dishes illustrate the range that makes Café Sapori so popular. Rather than relying on a single style of Italian cooking, the restaurant’s menu moves comfortably between pastas, meats, seafood and salads.
So, stop in and explore a menu rooted in classic Italian flavors while enjoying the relaxed sophistication of West Palm Beach. Café Sapori is located at 205 Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach. For more, visit cafesaporicorp.com or call 561-805-7313.
