  • Yup, this is definitely a 5 star in my books. I'm going to write the long winded version of my experience because I do think this restaurant deserves more than the two/three star ratings it's received. I came here around 7pm on a Thursday evening - place wasn't too full at all so seating wasn't an issue. My girlfriend and I were situated beside the window with the view of Fairy Lake falls and some of the River Walk Commons area. It wasn't hard on the eyes. I got up and started to wonder for the restroom and before I got too far, a server approached me and directed me without my asking to the restroom. I saw she had a glass of water in her hands... that was my water! So prompt and on par already. I really liked the chairs at this restaurant. I know that might be an odd thing to comment on but for someone who has a poor back, these chairs really hugged me. I was comfortable the entire time. I did not readjust or walk around once. When Stacey our server came back, she recommended a wine to us that was actually really good. She explained the flavour and notes and did a great job of it too. Not pretentious what so ever. She suggested a few meals which the wine would go well with. When I asked about substituting one sauce for another on the pasta, she said it likely wasn't a problem but she'd check with the kitchen staff first. We ordered the bruschetta to share and an entre of penne alla vodka each. My friend is veg so they had no problem substituting the pancetta for another seasonal veggie. The bruschetta was phenomenal. I loved that they added a presto drizzle because it really brought out and added to the flavours. The baguette had the perfect crunch too; it didn't shred the roof of my mouth with every bite. The penne alla vodka was out of this world! I had an unreal vodka sauce at a wedding and have been scared to try it ever since in fear of ruining the flavour memory I had... I'm actually really happy I haven't sampled elsewhere because Sparro nailed it on the head! I think if I had tried it another time, I would shy away from ordering here so I'm thankful I didn't! The pasta sauce was so freaking good! My picture does no justice. The pasta was cooked just to my liking and the pancetta bits were large and in charge - so many pieces! I was definitely a happy camper and so was my date. "I could lick this plate!" Her exact words. And we did lick the plate. The desserts looked good but we didn't order them. There was a very slow turn around for the bill. That was my only gripe. Everything else in the meal was fantastic, except the finale. Stacey was still pleasant but I think because we were the last ones in there, maybe she forgot about us while doing other closing duties. I will forgive Sparro for this since the pasta did require some digestion time. By the time I got home, I did have a tiny bit of heart burn but it was worth it. 5 stars with no ragrets.
