"Updated review from 2023: Since our first visit to this restaurant in 2019, we have returned each year following. They added Ooen Table for setting reservations and we've not had an issue getting a seat since. I would still recommend booking at least a week in advance, especially if you intend to dine on a weekend. The food has always been good and they handle those with gluten sensitivities very well. That is the number one concern for my wife. Everything else is trivial in comparison, but having said that the atmosphere is warm and cozy and the staff are pleasant (and numerous). The attention we received was adequate though I was a little surprised that our server did not offer to open our wine or offer a bucket of ice. That has not been the typical case here in the past or at any other fine dining restaurant in Cape May proper. Was that a big deal? No, of course not and it could just have been an oversight or an indicator of how busy they were. Regardless, we will see Sapore again next year! Review from 2019: We couldn't get to a live person on the phone. We called 3 times within an hour between 4 and 5 pm and each time the call was forwarded to some other number that had no greeting indicating it was for the restaurant. Very bizarre. Anyhow, we decided to just go and see if we could get a table. Alas it was booked until 8:30 which was too late for us. We opted to order takeout and it actually came out fairly quickly. The food was very good. I had linguine alla vongole and my wife had the sapore Italiano (gluten free pasta due to allergy). My wife did not get ill which means they did a good job avoiding cross contamination. Kudos for that! We'll certainly be back, but only if we can actually get through on the phone to make a reservation. Dietary restrictions: Gluten sensitivities are handled well here"
