ABOUT SANTE

Sante Calandri — RESTAURATEUR

Sante Calandri not only brings the true essence of Italy, but also years of experience in the business. Beginning his soon to be career at age thirteen, Sante started working at the famous Il Cochetto in Trevi, Italy. In his early twenties, he worked at Il Pescatore da Alberto in Fumicino, Rome and later at Il Castellaccio in Perugia – central Italy.
Sante moved to the United States when he was just twenty-four years old and found work at Taormina Restaurant in Little Italy, NYC where he stayed for three years when he moved on to work at Bice for the next twenty-three years.

In 2010, Sante bought Ports of Italy in Boothbay Harbor, Maine and stepped away from the fast-paced New York lifestyle to pursue his new project.
Along with his chef Fabrizio Ventricini, serve authentic Italian dishes – focusing on the simplicity of each dish, while surprising guests with all the bold yet perfectly mixed flavors in every bite.

Ten years later, Sante also brought his authentic Italian culinary experience to Rockport, ME.

Sante wants his diners to “feel relaxed like when you come back home from work and smell all the odors that coming out from the kitchen of your mother”.
