About the restaurant

We are open for lunch from 11:30am - 3:30pm with the full dinner menu. We do NOT have a wait staff for the lunch hours. It is self service with QR code ordering, and we do NOT take reservations during that time.

Our menu offers our specialty, wood fired pizza. Our entrees include house-made made sauces, pestos, pastas, & desserts. We also have a nice selection of wines and craft beer.

If you cannot make a reservation through OpenTable, please call the restaurant as we need to do appointments by phone only after a certain amount of OpenTable reservations.

Sparrow Wine Bar has a cozy vibe, a great wine selection, and delicious small plates perfect for sharing. The pan con tomate with white anchovies was simple yet packed with flavor, and the mushroom pâté was rich and earthy—definitely a standout. Highly recommend if you're looking for a relaxed evening with good wine and bites.

We came to this restaurant to celebrate my husband’s birthday, since he loves Irish food and beer. The sheppard’s pie and Irish stew were excellent. The burgers were very good too. Our only complaint would be that the batter on the fish for the fish & chips was lacking seasoning. It lacked flavor. But the whole dining experience was outstanding! We will be coming back again. Really loved it.

We went with friends and decided to share several plates. The server was very helpful and attentive, food delicious and plentiful, and the decor is tastefully done. We had the mixed platter, shrimp vindaloo, chicken tikka masala and plenty of naan. We would definitely recommend!
