Found this amazing little place last night. We had the best time and so glad we came across it. This place will become a regular for us no doubt about it. Venue, food, service, atmosphere.... everything was 10/10!!!! The tortellini is the best pasta I've ever eaten! I'm already wondering when I can fit a visit in again. Thank you again.
Unreal food! Definitely tried some new things and couldn't be happier with the quality and freshness of the food! Special thanks to the chef that cooked the amazing food for us! Highly recommended ! Will definitely be back �
One of the best places amazing place amazing ambience great food friendly and professional staff great services free definitely will visit the place again
The cutest corner terrace, warm and friendly service together with simple and seasonal Italian food makes for a lovely dinner. Every time I have been to Sagra, I have not been disappointed. The pasta dishes are always cooked to perfection and are made with a handful of ingredients, just the way pasta is meant to be made. I’ll happily be back again and again. #sagra
Does My Bomb Look Big In This

You’ll find Sagra in a humble brick terrace on Stanley Street. The unremarkable white-walled dining space is furnished with marble tables and dark brown wooden bistro chairs, set under exposed light bulbs. I’ve arrived quite late to the Sagra party. While this restaurant was originally owned and operated by Nigel Ward (Lucio's, Sean's Panaroma) in the ensuring years, it changed ownership and now has Michael Otto and Edward Saxton at the helm. Luckily for me these chefs seem to operate from a similar brief, with a short, Italian menu that changes daily and reflects the best of the season's wares. Over a malty, Birra Messina Lager ($10), I considered the one-page menu, neatly arranged into...
I really liked this place... We were greeted in a super friendly way and the service continued to be that way the whole evening. Its a small place but really cosy and welcoming.
The primi pastas were delicious! So we had pretty much all of them and only one main to share. Even when our choices were a bit limited (dairy free and pregnant) the ones we were able to try were really good.
Tucked away in an intimate terrace on Stanley Street this restaurant might be easy to overlook but it's only a short (if steep) step away from Oxford Street. Lunched here last Saturday with a friend and it was very quiet. We shared zucchini flowers with pecorino and she had a pasta main while I had roast trout with a julienne of roasted vegetables. We also shared a flourless chocolate cake dessert and some glasses of an excellent Italian white wine, the name of which escapes me.
The food was excellent and all up it came to around $130 (my companion also supped a cocktail). I am not sure how long Sagra has been here but I would definitely come again.

- Pumpkin and sage ravioli (4/5): Perfect morsels of al dente ravioli filled with creamy pumpkin swimming in a delicious sage butter sauce with the perfect amount of cheese on top. This left me wanting more!!!
- Arancini (4/5): So nice and crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside filled with cheese and mushrooms. Every bite a DELIGHT! This is a great starter and a generously sized arancini ball.
- Yoghurt and Raspberry Pavlova (3.5/5): As a yoghurt lover I thoroughly enjoyed the slightly sweet and slightly tarte taste of this dish. The meringue gave it a wonderful texture and the raspberries broke up the flavour well. However, my friends who don't like yoghurt found the sourness overpowering so I had this one all to myself :)
- Tiramisu (3.5/5): The tiramisu was a hit around the tables. So light and fluffy and not overly sweet. However it's nothing really out of the ordinary. You can't go wrong with tiramisu really.
- Chocolate Mousse (3.5/5): This tasted like a smooth dark chocolate mousse and I loved the crunchy honeycomb on top. Yum!
Fantastic dinner. The service is super friendly and attentive. The bresaola was amazing.... so soft. We had the fish and the duck which were both generous portions and delicious. Really looking forward to trying the pastas next time.
This is the best Italian I had. Ever. The taste was unbelievable! I am not at all into veggies and the dish was vegetarian. If I ever decide to turn one I know I won’t starve with bad food. Highly recommended.
My husband and I came here to catch up with a friend and we agreed that it was a good choice and a good night. (We also didn't get kicked out as there is a two seating on Friday nights and we were able to chat and relax)
We had their pumpkin arancini balls to start and we all ended up getting their duck pappardelle which was delicious! Silky smooth pasta but the only problem was my husband wanted double the size!
For dessert two of us got their tiramisu which was good but not the best I have had as there was too much cream and the apple crumble was the other dessert of choice and that seemed to be enjoyed by the diners.
Staff were friendly but when the restaurant is full it does get quite noisy so it's hard to have a conversation without yelling.
Super yummy food all around- we had the arancini balls (some of the best I've ever had), the nettle lasagna (super good), the artichoke pasta (nice) and the pumpkin amaretto tortellini (delicious). So yes, perfectly good for vegos. The service was very friendly, efficient, and helpful. Would go back in a heartbeat.
Oh my gosh, their pasta melts in the mouth! Their in-house chilli oil is also super on point!!! We ordered all four pastas on the menu and as a meat lover, I actually got so impressed by the pumpkin tortellini (best in Sydney we’ve encountered so far) and smoked eggplant cannelloni and preferred them better than the other two. Proper service!
Sagra really is as amazing as people say—if not more. For starters, the food is absolutely delectable. You can tell how skilled the chefs are, as well as how much love they put into each dish. I was truly impressed by how mouth-watering everything was, from the mains to the cocktails. The service is also impeccable, thanks to the friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive waitstaff. And finally, the ambiance is just right (at least for me). It’s refined but still warm, which is something quite rare to find when it comes to food of this high standard. All in all, Sagra is an absolutely beautiful dining experience. I can’t wait to come back! The team should be so proud of what a wonderful restaurant they’ve built.
I was recommended Sagra and arrived with my sisters and mum later on a Thursday night for a drink. We were warmly welcomed by Edward, the owner who was so modest and kind. It was lively but he made sure that we were constantly seen to and had everything and more that we wanted! The feeling of this restaurant is incredibly personable, yet sophisticated. It stays true to its Italian roots, changing with the seasons while maintaining a local and approachable feel. Will be coming back here every time I visit Sydney! Thank you.
Great authentic Italian food. Fair priced.
Friendly staff. Good wine and a nice atmosphere.
Amazingly good food. Per plate quantity seems less, but if you go for proper three course meal, then it will be enough. Nice and cosy ambience.
Had an amazing experience in Sagra on valentines day. The staff were friendly and well acknowledged about food and drinks. Food was absolutely delicious. Especially, Ricotta gnocchi with prawns in bisque sauce was my favourite. Would definitely recommend this plcae to dine in for delicious Italian food.
The tiramisu was the best I've ever had, rest of the pasta although serving was small was very tasty.
Nice little authentic Italian restaurant. We really enjoyed our entrees kingfish crudo and potato croquettes and the chocolate mousse dessert but the fregola main with calamari was too salty and I couldn’t finish it. Service is attentive but not overly as usually I would expect the waiter to ask how was your evening when paying bill. Overall lovely restaurant and very relaxing atmosphere.
