Sapori Italian Roots

Food Truck Il Saporis Opens New Downtown Austin Italian Restaurant | Eater Austin

"Opening downtown at 800 Brazos Street, Suite 215 on Thursday, August 10, Sapori Italian Roots will carry most of the food truck’s Italian-American menu—house-made pastas and sauces including fettuccine alfredo, spaghetti and meatballs, and lasagna—while adding visible guest-facing features like a pasta-making station and a new burrata station. The menu will expand with salads, potential osso buco ravioli, desserts such as tiramisus, cannolis and frozen sweets, and beverage options including wine, wine cocktails and beer; the restaurant will offer counter and table service plus a coffee walk-up window and will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sapori will also sell retail goods (fried pasta, sauces, dressings) and meal kits, and is the next project from Tony DeStefano—whose family ran Italian restaurants in San Antonio and who formed Benedetto Hospitality Group while also preparing a Filipino food-truck venture with Durden Food Group." - Nadia Chaudhury
