My son and i were in Springfield for a short trip this week to go the Lincoln Museum. We asked for advice on where to eat dinner and were told from two very nice people to go to Saputo's for authentic Italian and friendly atmosphere. We are pleased to say we found both at your restaurant!

Shirley was such a sweet and attentive server - i've been in the restaurant business for 30 years and she was wonderful!! So caring, genuine and efficient. The salad dressing was delish, the pizza sooo good, the wine, the canoli all made for an evening we will always remember. Keep up the good work! You really are making memories!! Thank You!

I came here for my "go-to" carb loading meal the night before my half marathon. This unassumingly hidden place has a serious old school Italian theme once you go in! I'm not exaggerating when I say that the inside decor truly exemplifies Italian restaurants.



I was greeted by a friendly staff and while I ate by myself this meal (which I usually hate) the servers were super friendly and checked on me frequently.



I ordered the individual pizza and was pretty surprised just how fast it came out! It was darn good and I honestly consider myself a pizza snob. I finished most of it though I could have easily polished it off.



I'd definitely come back for the good prices, friendly staff, and good tasting foods!

I had the homemade ravioli with sausage and my wife the baked lasagna with meatballs. Both were very good. The sauce had the right amount of garlic bite to it. Very tasty entrees.

We would go back.

I was on business in Springfield and staying at the Doubletree across the street from the restaurant. It was recommended by the hotel as a great locally owned Italian restaurant and I wasn't disappointed. I had the Chicken Parm, which was a generous serving and really good. The atmosphere has a vintage 70's look, which I found appealing. My meal with a couple glasses of wine was around $35. I sat at the bar and the lady bartender was great. I would highly recommend trying this place!

I come to town for business every few weeks and always make it a point to come here for dinner. The food service and drinks are the best in town.

My wife and I have eaten here several times. It is conveniently located near downtown hotels and offers superb Italian cuisine in a friendly family atmosphere. The Coffey family goes out of their way to see that guests receive promp, high quality service and their attention to detail is second to none. You will not be disappointed with this choice for dining in Springfield!

I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was very good. My wife had the Baked Lasagna and loved it. Tables are a little close, but overall it's a great restaurant. We will return.

When my brother is in town from California the only place he wants to go is Saputo's for their Italian breaded steak! Imagine a lemon infused char-crusted New York Strip or Filet seared to mouthwatering perfection! Paired with one of their fine wines & you will have discovered one of Springfield's best kept secrets

My family and I dined at Saputo's. It reminded me of how restuarants looked when I was a kid...

We chose it becuase it was close to our hotel, but you should choose it becuase it is GOOD. The restaurant features homemade ravioli and lasagne noodles. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal. We began with a thin-crust pizza that was fantastic. Our entrees included baked lasagne, eggplant parm and tortellini. No one left hungry!

We chose this place because it was just around the corner from our hotel, and it turned out to be a great decision. Saputo's is a family-owned little Italian place that's been in Springfield for years. It's easy to see why; the food is delicious and reasonably priced, the service is friendly and attentive, and the location is great.

I walked in right at 5 which is opening and they got my group of 5 right in. I appreciate their honesty in asking if we would be finished at 6 for their next reservation. Food was good not great and staff were good!! Will come back '

Overall

they have several very good dishes I would recommend to anyone. My go-to is the Chicken & Peppers - it is two grilled chicken breasts covered in roasted bell peppers, onions, and a spicy marinara sauce. The spaghetti and meatballs is also very good. The marinara sauce is what sets this place apart from competitors - it is very very good.

We were on our way back from Chicago and found Saputo's on Yelp and decided to try. We didn't have a reservation arrived at 5:40 on a Friday evening. They were booked but gave us their last open table, made us feel like family and the food was fantastic. The house dressing is amazing, bread was awesome and our dishes chicken fettuccine and chicken Parmesan were the best. Would recommend to everyone and we will be sure and stop in again if we are in Springfield IL.

This place is an absolute must to go eat. The service is perfect and the food is wonderful. You cannot get better pasta, seafood or steak. The atmosphere is quaint so eat slow and enjoy every part.
