Sabatino’s North

Lunch was delicious. I had meatballs with linguini. Huge yummy meatballs and the pasta was cooked perfectly. My mom had the chicken parm that was equally as delicious. We had arancini for an appetizer and they were right up there with the best I have had. We will be back for sure as I had a hard time making up my mind and want to try more.

Wonderful linguine with clams in a fradiavolo sauce. My new favorite Italian restaurant in the Derry area! Great wine for 20 – 26 a bottle. Loved the bartender and staff. Will definitely be back!

I have been here three times and have ordered the Shrimp Fra Diavolo every time! The best I have ever had, that includes the entire country. No one I have been with has ever had a bad meal! I highly recommend this place! If you are in the Derry, NH area and want some real deal Italian food come here!!!

This restaurant has the best food. Been there twice and each time the food was absolutely delicious. The owners are very nice and the mingle with their customers. The wait staff was perfect! I would give more than 5 stars if you could. I drive from mass to eat here. Simply magnificent

There outdoor dinning on the old train depot platform was fantastic when we had a friend in town fron CT. Sangria was amaing both white and red versions. Linguine with white clam sauce came with clams still in the shell. Fresh and hot.

In reality I would give them about 4 to 4 ½ stars, but for Derry, they are definitely 5 stars! I read many of the poor reviews and am really surprised by them! My experience here has always been great! I’m not a big foodie by any means, but I really do like to eat. Every time I have ordered something here it has been great! When I wanted something different than what was on the menu the waitress would make a suggestion and basically create something based on what I told her I wanted. Eating outside in the summer is very nice too! I have been here probably 10 times or more over the last 3 years and I have never had a bad experience or food that I didn’t like. I will admit that if I were comparing this restaurants to some of the very high end places that I have been to, I might not give them 5 stars, but again, for Derry, it’s the best there is … and it’s pretty good!

My favorite restaurant. Staff is awesome. Drinks are so good and food is amazing. This is one of those places were you are full but want to keep eating because it’s so yummy.

We went in and were given a basket of store bought Scali bread and oil. After browsing the menu, we waited for the waitress to come over and take our drink order for almost 15 minutes and we weren’t even given menus to read. She said she would be right back with menus and after another 5 minutes (we were the only people in the restaurant) we walked out and went to Amorpha. My only interaction with this place previous to this was the owner screaming at people to walk their bikes on the sidewalk, which she probably should have thought about before opening a restaurant at the head of a public rail trail.

TERRIBLE, AWFUL, HORRIBLE customer service and waaaaaayyyyyy overpriced! Ordered catering for an event well in advance, went to pick it up at the agreed upon time and it wasn’t ready. Because we had a houseful of guests waiting and had to get home, we were told that they would deliver it and would be «10 minutes behind» us. After about 45 minutes in, we started calling the restaurant, but nobody answered the phone, so ordered and ate a bunch of pizzas from someplace else. An hour and 15 minutes later, the food FINALLY arrived. Instead of being offered an apology and a discount, we were informed that one of the ovens was broken which caused the delay, and argued about the agreed upon time. I am quite curious as to why we did not receive a phone call in advance nor why we we not informed when we we there in person. Grudgingly, they knocked $ 30 off of a $ 230 order, and as long as I’m complaining– the $ 230 was for just 3 trays of food (sandhwiches, sausage and peppers and chicken broccoli ziti) Food was decent but definitely not worth the money nor the aggravation!

WOW! We went here twice during our stay in Derry, and it was fantastic both times. Between both visits, with different friends each time, we tried most of the menu, and every dish was perfectly prepared, and we were fully satisfied. The General Manager, Robin, is truly a real Italian, both in genealogy, and attitude. She really cares about her customers, staff, food and restaurant, and it shows. I recommend this small place in Derry to anyone who loves great food and dining with family and friends.

Awesome food and drinks. Every Time I go always the best Italian Food the chic broc and ziti is to die for. Def the best North of Boston.

First I have to say my husband and I very rarely go out for traditional Italian because, well, you can make lasagna at home. When we do for whatever reason, we’re no particularly jazzed about it. However, my friend and I ended up at Sabatino’s last Wednesday because our intended restaurant was closed for a private party. I ordered the stuffed chicken parm with a side of penne and their pink sauce. HOLY COW DELISH!!! I brought home half of it because they don’t skimp on the portions. It became lunch for my husband on Thursday. That evening, my husband the non-​foodie volunteers how delicious the pink sauce was in particular along with the chicken. I said imagine fresh!!! Well… Found ourselves too lazy to cook on Friday night — guess where we ended up? We split the chicken again as well as the chicken saltambucca special. Absolutely delicious (also the calamari and my friend’s Alfredo sauce was spot on). Highly impressed — and staff we’ve had so far was very friendly. Will absolutely be a regular customer!

Delicious! Great food, good price, nice décor. Love the Blueberry Lemon Drop Martini. Would def come in again!

Food is awesome, great atmosphere. Family atmosphere like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. Great specialty drinks, great for a date.

I tried it again the other day. It was just as bad as my previous times. My lobster ravioli was terrible. It was under cooked and the sauce was disgustingly salty. Also once again it was over priced.
It’s sad this location is being wasted so much.

Oh my goodness this place is so good. I have been here many times and have never had anything less than spectacular. The food is always fresh and the pasta is cooked like Italians cool it, al dente. Yum. Can’t wait to get back there and have a cocktail and a great meal!

Yawn… won’t go back. Expensive and unchanged from several years ago when I tried it last time. Figured I would give it another chance since the moved but still nothing special.
¹¹⁄₂₀₁₅ — ok went back… sadly but only because they had moved into the Train Depot a while back and we thought maybe it would be better. NOPE. Same bland food and slow service. However now, you get to listen to loud people at the bar! Salad was ok… croutons were a little funky. Clams casino — canned chopped clams… gross. Dinners… bland and one dish cold. Had one beer and it was nearly $ 75. Wasted money.

Very average.

Salt, salt, and more salt! That’s all I tasted when I went. And our Antipasto tasted mostly like vegetables soaked in vinegar. And overpriced!!!

I have not been to the new location (where the Depot Steakhouse was). But I live in the same building basically, and since they’ve moved I live across the street now. I liked their food very much, and their service and atmosphere was good at the old place.
They need a better bar and more on tap. But the new place (I’ve peered in) seems to be better! The new place looks awesome inside, and is always busy now!
The outside dining looks really nice also. I wish they had some gluten free options, I’d eat there a lot more. It’s not often I go to sit down dining alone… obviously. And my girlfriend has the gluten allergy. So If she doesn’t feel like having salad, she’s not eating. We’d go all the time, especially to drink and stagger across the street, if they had a gluten free option. Even one.
Last time we went, we ordered an Italian wedding soup to go (their food to go is actually just as good as dine in!) and we explicitly asked if that was gluten free. Obviously it has pasta in it for the recipe usually. We asked if they had ANYTHING gluten free, and the waitress said «yes the italian wedding». I couldn’t believe it but I assumed she’d know. It was not, there was pasta in it. There is such a thing as gluten free pasta obviously. She had some and got sick.
If they knew was gluten free was, they could just say NO. That would have been nice.
Their food is good though. I would just go there to drink now. Which I will! Maybe I’ll update my review after I go into the new place.
