About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Innovative
The innovative dining concept and sister restaurant to RASA, provides a calm oasis in the heart of Toronto’s Entertainment District. The latest collaboration from Adrian Niman and Adam Minster (the team behind RASA) offers a selection of inspired sharing plates. Using local ingredients and refined techniques, SARA’s menu showcases cuisines and cooking practices from around the globe.

SARA ’s thoughtful design — from the furniture to the food — nudges guests to fully immerse themselves in the shared dining experience, disconnect from external distractions, and reconnect with one another.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: This oasis-like restaurant in a two-level Victorian is all about undistracted dining, hinted by the tabletop cubbies for stowing your phones. Power down so you can give your undivided attention to executive chef Lia Silva’s avant-garde and exquisite global small plates like salmon roe latkes with maple kombu, and tuna tartare with black truffle and potato chips.

    We tried the tasting menu. Excellent! Great service, lovely ambiance. Great for date nights, catching up with friends. And I can definitely see how cosy this space would be for parties.

    Incredible food - some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. Cocktails were flavourful and balanced. I had Benji as a server and he was so kind and attentive.
