Sabatino's is the BEST Italian Restaurant in Orange County. It truly feels like family welcoming you to dinner. The menu+wine selection was great. The food is delicious. The sausage platter was out of this world. Highly recommended. ❤
Excellent experience. Our family has been going to this location for 25 years. We moved to another state and back recently and I can say this restaurant just keeps getting better. Some weekend nights they also have live solo music. You feel like you’re in Italy but actually right in the bay.
Real flavor with old country charm hidden amongst the boats. I loved this place from the moment we arrived. We were greeted repeatedly by all the staff and the owner himself who visited our table numerous times to chat...a genuinely sweet, kind, loving man with a quick whit... very personable. He invited me to walk through the rooms of the restaurant and explained the various wall murals of his family and those who have worked for him over the past forty years. The meat case is amazingly filled with freshly made sausages, stuffed bell peppers, and so much more. We both had the Eggs Benedict with Spicy Italian Sausage. A beautiful fruit plate was also served with fresh toasted bread. The olive relish on the table went so well with the fresh garlic bread. I want to go again and again to try their lunch menu items ASAP.

Great service & Good food. We had a Greek salad, mostaccioli & cannellini. We couldn't even finish our food. Good portions!
Great atmosphere and India our server was great. Food was average Italian food. We had a sausage, pepper, and risotto appetizer that was delicious. Our entrees were ok and I felt a bit overpriced. But if down by the beach craving Italian it’s worth checking out.

This place is famous for their sausages and their Italian dining vibes. I really enjoy the dinner here with friends and family. There’s also live music someday. Such a cute place to hang.
Our server was super nice and attentive. The Italian wedding soup that was given as an appetizer was so good! We had spicy sausage added to our pasta and now we know why they are known for their sausages. I love how parking is free too.
At Sabatino's Sausage Company there was dining outdoors. The hostess adjusted an umbrella to make sure I was in the shade. I had lunch. I ordered Italian sausage, green pepper and onion sandwich with a Moscato wine. I was served a complimentary cup of minestrone soup, warm Italian bread. The sausage is made there. It was mild flavorful. There restrooms were very clean. The server invited me to see the murals painted on the walls. She showed me the picture of the owner.
I felt relaxed and enjoyed with my experience.
Picked up a delicious catering order for a rehearsal dinner. Best sausage I've ever had. 4 different pasta dishes were also fabulous.

If you didn't know Sabatinosa existed, you'd never know it was there, which makes it so "old school" cool. It's an old family restaurant that has always been run by family members. The location is in the area of a beautiful harbor. It has a very refreshing atmosphere, especially because we love sitting outside. We typically go there for breakfast or occasionally lunch. The sausages are super delicious. Sabatinos is well known for their epically delicious, family recipe sausages. Everything is super fresh. The service is very friendly and professional. The same servers have been there forever, so you get a very cool local vibe. Anything you choose from the menu you can't go wrong. I love the classic Italian sub. Super delish. The prices are a bit expensive but overlooked because the food is so good. We love you Sabatinos! 😍
