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 at 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.

    After having had COVID-19, I thought I had lost my sense of taste, but Sara brought it back again! The seasoning with mustard, aioli, and wasabi was done just right. This was a charming experience, not only the food but also the restored Victorian row house environment and the friendly and efficient service. We'll be back!

    One of the bar meals I’ve had in Toronto! Got the tasting menu which had tons of amazing dishes. I had a vegetarian style, my fiancé had meat. The portions were perfect, each dish was sooo tasty. We sat at the bar which was cosy. We had the tangerine cocktail to begin which was actually one of the most delicious cocktails I’ve ever had. And we had some white wine with our dinner which was also perfect. The service was great as well. 10/10 experience.

    We had a really nice evening at Sara celebrating a birthday and new job. The staff really made it special for us. We sat at the bar which I will always recommend - especially if you’re lucky to have a lovely person like Joey take care of you. The tasting menu was delicious and highly recommended. We love Rasa and Sara will now join our list of favourites.
