We have been here a few times and it is always very good! The service is great! I would recommend trying the crispy shrimp appetizer as it was honestly one of the best things I’ve ever had before! I also like the orecchiette and my partner likes the variety of fish options available. The maple cake is our favourite dessert!

I had company’s Christmas dinner there. It is a very good banquet place. Talking about the food, the appetizers were fantastic with lamb chops to share and I ordered shrimp myself. Both taste delicious. There was an Italian pasta plate came before the main dish. It taste good but a little bit filling for me. So I didn’t have room to finish my main dish. The bar tender Mathew made his special fruity drink for me, since I requested no liquor drink. Very good taste too.

This restaurant is a bit far away but it is worth the drive. Loved their pizzas especially the mushrooms with truffle one which tastes so good and different from other ordinary pizzas elsewhere. The waiters were very helpful. Although we were not allowed to bring in our own cake to celebrate my cousin's birthday, they offered us a candle with a birthday message to put on the desserts we ordered. Overall, I will visit again when I crave their delicious pizzas

We celebrated our anniversary at Sarpa Trattoria as a family of four, and it was fantastic! We started with their fresh bread and Calamari as appetizers, followed by Gnocchi and the Mezza Rigatoni Alla Vodka for our main courses. Every dish was absolutely delicious, and the flavors were spot on! We finished with Tiramisu for dessert, which was the perfect sweet ending to a memorable meal. Highly recommend Sarpa for a special occasion or just a great Italian meal!

Stayed in Richmond Hill for the weekend and found Sarpa on google maps. Loved the reviews and pictures so came for dinner. We were not disappointed! Great great date night ambience, exceptional wine list, service was quick and personal and above par. We enjoyed arancini, Caesar salad, two bread orders and pasta bolognese. All meals were incredible. Highly recommend.

We visited Sarpa with another couple and had a delightful experience from the moment we arrived. A distinguished gentleman—possibly the manager or owner—warmly greeted us at the door, showcasing a level of hospitality that's rare in today's dining scene. It was a fantastic start! We were seated at a comfortable table, and our server, a young man, promptly brought us water. He was attentive, though it was clear he was a bit nervous and juggling a busy night. Despite that, the bussers were impressively efficient, ensuring our table was cleared and cleaned after each course. The pacing of our meal was excellent; we never felt rushed and truly enjoyed every moment. We had such a wonderful time that we decided to indulge in dessert as well. While the menu leans toward the pricier side, the quality of the food was impressive, the drinks were fantastic, and the overall service was outstanding. We left feeling thoroughly satisfied and eager to return!

★★★
November 22, 2024

We were disappointed. Food was underwhelming. My husband had the chicken parm and it was burnt in places. Not much flavour. I had the gnocchi and after three bites, I was done. Way too rich. Flavour doesn t have to come from heavy ingredients to make it taste good. The rest of our party, a couple, said not a word about their meal, which suggested to me that they didn t want to offend us, as we chose the restaurant and were treating them to a meal. Desert was big and not my favourite. I have to mention the server. I can t remember his name, but he was a male. He kept talking to us about the Blue Jays. It felt so forced I had second hand embarrassment for him. A napkin fell on the floor and he saw it happen, picked it up and took it away. But he never brought another one to the table to replace it. I am pointing this out because for the exorbitant prices that are being charged at this place, the service has to be above par. It s not. Indoor ambiance was nice, although the patio is facing out to the parking lot. I would not suggest being seated there. For four entrees, one app, one beer and a lot of sparkling water, our total with tip was $400. I gasped when I paid. I will not return and I do not recommend.

Perfect Anniversary Dinner! My wife and I celebrated our 31st anniversary at Sarpa Trattoria last night and had an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. Our server, Dennis, was incredibly friendly and attentive, making our evening even more special. We started with the Caesar salad (which was huge and delicious!) and the famous bread service - loved that the proceeds go to the food bank! My veal marsala was cooked to perfection and the portion was very generous. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Tagliatelle bolognese, which was full of flavor. We finished the night with a decadent funnel cake and it was the perfect ending to a perfect meal. Sarpa Trattoria provided the ideal setting for our anniversary celebration. The food, service, and ambiance were all outstanding. Highly recommend!

I dont write many reviews but wow. I could not believe the service we had by Reza. As soon as me and my partner checked in, the hostess mentioned our previous server Reza remembered us, I was so shocked. What a special feeling. We have not been able to return in so long and yet somehow Reza and the staff made us feel special. It was such a perfect evening from service to food to atmosphere. Hats off to the owner you know exactly how to choose your staff amazing people and chef all around. Ill be making more of an effort to come back often.

Sarpa is one of those hidden gems that simply delights and brings you to a smile when you experience its menu. For our appetizer, we had the bruschetta, which tasted so wonderfully rich topped with the whipped ricotta. I highly recommend the meat pie (pizza) for those who want an authentic savory taste with a hint of spiciness. You can share it with someone or enjoy the entire pie yourself if you love pizza like me! For vegetarians, the pan roasted potato gnocchi is just sublime. Each bite makes you want to eat more. To drink, we opted for a cocktail called Rezas Angels, which had a sweet lemony taste. But dont let the name fool you its fairly strong. Finally, for dessert, our selection was the panna cotta, which can be described with only one word - divine. We had a terrific experience and the best service Ive ever had for dinner. I highly recommend coming here for couples, groups, and large gatherings. Vegetarian options: Pasta and salads are available Parking: Lots of parking in the plaza Kid-friendliness: Good atmosphere for the kids, and they will enjoy the menu

Food was very good. Waiter was also good. The only problem is that I made reservations for my husband s birthday and pre ordered a surprise birthday desert that never came. The restaurant took all my info and what I wanted to have happen at the end of the dinner but completely forgot to deliver. I waited for the big desert and Happy Birthday serenade but it never materialized. Totally forgotten. I was just given the bill. Sad when I made a point of planning with a person at the restaurant. Not expected from a restaurant of this calibre. Disappointed to say the very least.

Food was absolutely delicious and unique dishes. We shall definitely return in the future! Vegetarian options: They were very kind to customize the polenta dish to be completely vegetarian. Our server even checked with the kitchen that it s not cooked in chicken broth.

I held a small celebration for 24 people in the bar area of restaurant. The food was beyond delicious and only of best quality. The service staff were welcoming and efficient. I can t even think of one negative thing to write. Dietary restrictions: One of our guests has a severe allergy to five different foods. The cook either removed or replace these items and made sure that there was no cross contamination of these allergens.

Came to celebrate my parents 40th anniversary and was blown away. Food - we each ordered a different dish and loved it. Having traveled to Italy many times, I am fairly discerning when it comes to burrata and arancini, and was pleased with both. The lamb chops, gnocchi, cod, veal limone, and orichiette were all flavorful, balanced, well-portioned, and cleanly presented. The tiramisu, perfected over 10 years, was certainly one of the best Ive tasted (share this as its a large portion!). Service - top-notch from the start. I arrived 15 minutes early for my 8:15 Saturday night reservation, and watched as the staff spent a good 10 minutes ensuring the table setup was optimal; ensuring an even service between tables and fixing any wobbles. Our table was ready exactly on time and orders taken within minutes despite the dinner rush. Ample time was given between appetizers and mains, which I prefer. Tables were wiped, cleared, and fresh cutlery brought between each course. Our server (Kim) was knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging, willing to stop and chat. Atmosphere - ideal ambiance for the occasion. High quality build materials, design, and attention to details with plenty of items that bring character and draw attention. The dim lighting and wood lends to an intimate and cozy feel. It feels premium without being fussy. I could have been fooled to believe that I was in any establishment around Queen and Ossington that I typically frequent. This all might sound very high-brow, however the prices were fair and anyone would feel comfortable here, whether youre in jeans and a Hawaiian shirt, or a 3-piece suit. We will definitely return!

We knew this place was on a pricy side and we expect the food to be wow. Everything taste good but we had better with lower price in Markham. The most disappointing dish was the grill calamari... 2 pieces of calamari only. No doubt the decor at this place is on a fancier side. Their service is great. Cesar Salad was $27, average size but not much special.

I can t say enough about the Amazing Service by Reza, very sweet and knows what he s talking about. Service was great, food was tasty. Fried zucchini app, great portion size and tasty. Veal Marsala great portion size for the price, but I can t say the same for the Beef Tenderloin Special even though cooked to perfection , very small dollop portion of mash and 1.5 pieces of broccolini for $60. A little hefty in price for what you get. Aperol Spritz was very good, and same with the dessert and coffee. We will definitely be back, but it s not a regular dine in spot.

Great ambiance, very nice decor notes warm so-cal or Northern Italy vibe. Food was good flavourful shrimp very skimpy with broken bread looked cheap and sparse for the price Pasta special was tasty and respectable and worth regular menu inclusion but not a breakout item . The prices are very much downtown level. What really ranked was the greedy money grab of charging $8:for two glasses of tap water and a bread charge for the overly salted and spiced( rosemary) flat bread slices fir dishes especially the shrimp and carpaccio for which bread is a fairly standard accompaniment due to their lightness in nature ....especially here. Lastly the downtown priced cocktails are passable but not really worth it especially when Cafe Correcto ...a very common after dinner treat in place that fancy themselves as having Italian heritage, has to be explained reexplained and then served as espresso with sambuca ( not anise) on rhe side. ....overpowering anything left of the flavourful of dinner. So it is good ....yes Is it worth a visit ...sure there are alot worse. Worth the price ?..... nope! It feels greedy for a strip mall based room in the suburbs.

Went a week ago and did not have a good experience. We wanted to celebrate our engagement with a nice quiet dinner, however a series of events ruined the whole experience. Note that the restaurant was fully packed when we sat down. A tad too many tables in the space they have. Its cozy to say the least. We ordered 2 apps and 2 mains. Somehow the server forgot our main appetizer despite writing the order down and commenting that the app is a great choice. We waited for a good 20-30 min for the appetizers, only to get the mains instead. The seafood pasta was decent. We also ordered the pistachio crusted lamb that was on their specials. It was clearly advertised that it has 3 pieces of lamb on the menu. The dish we got barely had any pistachios. The 3rd piece of lamb was just the bone with negligible meat. Worse, they hid it under the two pieces. For a $60 entree, I expect to get whats clearly advertised on the menu. Couldnt help but think it was intentionally hidden under the two pieces. We sent it back and they added a full piece. The only good part was our glasses of water were always full and pasta was decent. Even though they tried to rectify the situation(s), we wont be visiting again.

Very friendly service and took really good care of us from seating to dessert! The food is really great but not cheap but you get what u pay for. Pricing is somewhat similar to Locale restaurant for main course based on my memory but I think this restaurant taste better. One thing to point out though, my server told me the gelato they serve has 4 scoop and cost about $15 if I remember correctly. But when I order my dessert, I wanted 2 scoop on the side along with my pistachio dessert, and they say they can do that but turns out that two scoop cost $13 which is pretty much the full price for 4 scoop. Not too happy when I find out when getting the bill but I should of ask the price per scoop so just want folks to be aware of the price if you want a scoop or two of gelato to go with other dessert u will have However , it was still an enjoyable evening for us!

You will want to bring someone to both impress them from the amazing dishes, best friendliest bartender, and ambiance for a memorable time.

An old friend brought me here for a birthday dinner and we had an amazing time. We had no plans and randomly stumbled upon this restaurant and so glad we did. We started with bread service and crispy smelts. Both delicious and exceeded my expectations. I ordered the beef tenderloin with rapini, roasted beets and potato and the veggies were well seasoned and perfectly cooked, with a little bit of crunch to them. The tenderloin was VERY good, not overcooked, juicy and super tender. I ordered and old fashioned, which was very well made. My friend ordered the veal limone with roasted potatoes and rapini and there was nothing left on his plate. All of this on its own wouldve been great, but what really elevated our experience was the service. Miriam looked after us and made us feel welcome. She seemed genuine and gave us authentic service that didnt feel over the top or cookie cutter. She maintained a high degree of professionalism while allowing her great personality to shine through. It was very easy to connect with her as diners on a quest for a dinner experience that went above and beyond delicious food. Thanks for a great night! Parking: Ample space, no issue finding parking on a Saturday night.

Yesterday, I dined at Sarpa Trattoria, a restaurant located in Toronto, and I must say that it was an exceptional experience. The ambiance was fantastic, making it a great spot for a romantic date. The service was top-notch, with numerous servers attending to our table, ensuring that our experience was nothing short of excellent. Our server, an elegant blonde woman with bangs and medium-length hair, provided impeccable service, making our entire dining experience comfortable and enjoyable. The Italian meat sauce pasta was undoubtedly the highlight of the meal - it was absolutely delicious, and the portion of meat was generous. The honey fries were also very flavorful and enjoyable. The only minor downside was the portion size of the crispy shrimp, which could have been more generous. Additionally, the chicken cutlet served with pasta was slightly under-seasoned and the pasta underneath was slightly tough. The average cost per person was $85, which I believe is a fair price for the quality of food and service provided. However, I would recommend that the restaurant take steps to ensure that children do not disturb diners, as it can be a bit noisy and can detract from the romantic ambiance. Overall, I would highly recommend Sarpa Trattoria for anyone looking for an exceptional Italian dining experience. The food and service were excellent, and the ambiance was perfect for a romantic night out.

We go to many different restaurants all the time we are big time foodies. This gem of a place is amazing in every way. The vibe and decor is great. But the food is on another level. The whipped ricotta brushcetta, those honey truffle fries and artisan green salad delicious. Best mimosa. Main courses pasta was good as well. The funnel cake dessert is not super oily and so fresh and the Berry compote on there makes it. We were back here today for a second time and we will be regulars. So happy we found this place I don t know what took us this long to check it out.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the atmosphere, food, service, EVERYTHING! Reza was an absolute legend at service! If I could give him 6 stars, I would! He s very charming and funny! Atmosphere is also amazing! Very romantic settings, usually we don t like sitting across from eachother but this place just made it so welcoming and comfortable. Food was also outstanding. We ordered the bread service, beef carpaccio, tagliatelle bolognese and the rigatoni alla vodka. All were amazing, only thing I would have preferred is pancetta over smoked bacon in the alla vodka. But was still super yummy and we went home very satisfied and happy! Will definitely be coming back soon!

We came here last month and I am still thinking of the food and amazing service. I believe Sherri was my server name. She was amazing. The service was top notch from her and all the staff they really work as a team. The day before I had just finished saying to my sister that customer service in most restaurants is mediocre at best. However Sherry s service was a superb, and her suggestions on dishes were great as well. I think the shrimp appetizer was my favourite. If you want good food and big service I would really recommend this place

Their staff and services were top notch, attending to all our needs and ensuring our guests had the most optimal experience. Shout out to Reza who led the crew The food was incredible, with all our guests enjoying the range of options from Pasta to Branzino to Beef Filet. I d recommend as a location to host a party, have a family night out or treat your loved one to a romantic and delicious dinner.

We werent sure what to expect, as we had been to Terra but never Sarpa, but to our surprise the service from the moment we stepped in was 100/100, we had the most pleasant, intelligent and experienced waiter, and it was appearant that he truly loved his job, which made our experience so much more special. Reza was able to recommend exactly what we would have liked to drink and eat, as we were having a hard time making a selection. And his choices were right on point! We were very surprised with every part of our experience as we live so close but never expected that our experience at Sarpa, thanks to our server Reza would be better than anywhere else in Richmondhill or York Region as a whole! Will definitely be back with the rest of the family!

Went there with my SO on Nov 8th for dinner. The place looked nice along with the atmosphere. There staff were friendly and accommodating. The reviews for food looked great, However the food was extremely terrible in our experience, specially considering the prices. We ordered a OYSTERS, CRACKLING OVEN ROASTED CHICKEN and GRILLED BRANZINO FILET. The presentation was great but taste was disappointing. The chicken was highly bland and flavourless, any bbq roasted chicken from the grocery store is much more flavourful and tasty. The fish was also a huge disappointment. The potatoes also very bland. Perhaps we just ordered the wrong dishes but was highly disappointed. We stopped over after to get fast food due to Our disappointment. Additionally the cutlery provided are put on the table which is highly unsanitary. The staff were accommodating bring fresh cutlery that were wrapped in napkins, however this should have been the case to start with. Overall would only recommend for drinks service and atmosphere.

Came here for my first time with a friend (who s a regular) and had a wonderful experience The service and hospitality was excellent and the food was spectacular. We shared the beef carpaccio and caesar salad to start, both of which were absolutely delicious. We also ordered bread, which was hot and fresh out the oven and had the perfect amount of butter and rosemary. For my main, I ordered the pan roasted potato gnocchi - which was so so good! My friend ordered the orecchiette (minus the cherry tomatoes & chilies) and loved it, as this is his go-to! Sarpa offers a nice wine selection as well and the vibes/interior are very on point I usually never skip dessert, but this time I was just too full Can t wait to come back and try something sweet next time though

Went here to celebrate my birthday and was NOT disappointed- service was impeccable- we never had to refill our own glasses, food was out so fast the whole experience was so incredible it felt like it was over too fast? The beef carpaccio was the best I ve EVER HAD you must order it if you visit (we ordered it twice it was that good!) The pasta dishes taste like they literally have a nonna in the back hand making everything. The pricing was so reasonable I definitely thought it d be $100 more then what we were billed, 2 apps, 2mains and a bottle of wine. Literally looking for another reason to go back!!
