Review - Sagra - Darlinghurst



Can’t stop singing the praises of here! The service was amazing and the food was truly authentic Italian … I am one very happy customer. No wonder the likes of Urban Spoon, Timeout and Eatability have featured this as a great place to eat!

I flagged my partner’s shellfish allergy through the online booking form and the level of initiative and care taken to accommodate the allergy in a way that we could both try each other’s dishes (without me missing out on my shellfish friends) … it was like being looked after by family.

We started with the zucchini flowers off the menu and the stuffed sardines off the specials. Both were fantastic – only critique is they were a little under seasoned. Next, we shared the ricotta ravioli (the pasta was made fresh just 2 hours prior). For the mains, Bryan had the spatchcock from the specials and I had the cod (they kindly quarantined the clams in a separate bowl so we could share). Last we had the rhubarb & almond tart and the peach leaf ice-cream and rock melon granita. All photo’d.

Looking at the menu, you’d think choosing would be a cinch from such a small menu, but no. Once you see the dishes floating past to other diner’s tables, you’ll find yourself in an ordering dilemma.

Noteworthy is your booking will be in a limited time frames as they do sittings.

Also, if you’re a lover of beer there’s only one on the menu.

The bill for our four courses, pre-dinner drinks and a good bottle of wine came to just $222.
