Sparrow Italia, Miami Reviews

Mixed feelings about this place. The interior decor is beautiful , the staff are all very friendly , the location in Wynwood is great. The menu is varied and has lots of choose from. In general, the starters were better than the mains but overall the place is overpriced for the quality and I also felt let down by the chef’s response to a simple request (more on that below). First we tried the Wagyu carpaccio - amazing. Best dish we had. The arancini were good- big portion, nice melted filling. Truffle pizza had a base that was too hard and a topping that was too watery for my taste. Chicken paillard was ok, broccolini were tasteless. I also saw a pasta photo online that the restaurant themselves uploaded. The waiter said that’s the pistachio pasta but actually it comes without the scoop of ricotta now. I said I’d really like it to be exactly as in the picture so could the chef please add the spoon of ricotta for me ? The chef came back and said the a scoop of ricotta would be 12$ extra !! To replicate an image that the restaurant themselves is advertising as their menu …. ! For me this screams misrepresentation legally but also leaves a really bad taste in my mouth , especially as I’ve just spent over 50$ on two half full drinks and close to 300$ on food. I unfortunately will stay loyal to Mother Wolf just because of this.

İt was nothing but a new year celebration. Food was amazing nothing to complain about however there was no celebration in the venue. Music wqs terrible they even skipped the countdown !!!!

Beautiful place, amazing food. Waygu's menu is surreal. Good service. Excellent music. Expensive but worth it. I recommend and would return. Infinitely better than other badasses like Sexy Fish.

Great date night spot with excellent vibe. Beautiful place and great food / presentation. Service was fantastic, I’ll be back

I opted to choose Sparrow for my girlfriend’s dinner. First and foremost I want to thank Carlos our server for answering all of our questions and explaining the menu to the T. You can tell he’s confident about what he does and loves it. The atmosphere is the perfect setting for a celebration with live music and the lounge area being as spacious as it is. It gave us a more intimate ambiance despite it being a packed Wednesday evening. The place was buzzing the bar was full and there were large parties of guest all over it felt like a weekend. To start we had “Pane Al Tartufo” and a dozen oysters. For the main course we ordered the ribeye and the truffle cacio Pepe This along with the drinks all came out expeditiously. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection. You had everyone delivering the food and drinks checking up on you offering further assistance. The manager Caleb was very nice and accommodating when I wanted to pay with Apple Pay he was happy to help. Overall the experience was lovely and I’ve seen the comments regarding the music being too loud. We had intimate conversations all night without the music being a factor and we even had the artist singing right in front of us at one point. Enjoy it as they will not disappoint!

Such an amazing experience! The service and staff were absolutely incredible - so attentive and welcoming. The food was outstanding, especially the Truffle Cacio e Pepe and the Grilled Branzino. Cocktails were 10/10, and the Tiramisu was one of the best desserts I have ever had. A Miami must-visit and would recommend to anyone visiting or in the area!

Gorgeous room and bar, amazing live music and ambience with killer food, cocktails and service. Will come back for sure.

I got dinner here for a friends birthday while we were in town. The ambiance was perfect for a special night out to celebrate! I started with the Sparrow Chop salad which was really nice, and then we split a few of the pasta dishes to share. To drink I got a dirty martini, but next time I definitely want to try some of their signature cocktails! I'm usually not hungry for dessert but I'm soo glad we got something sweet to end the night. Can't wait to go back to try the rest!

Early reservation, slow therefore we asked for corner but waitress said it's for 3 people. Within 5minutes they seat a couple of 2 at the corner table she said was for 3. The other corner was open, asked again said was for 3 and what do you know 5 more minutes and another couple of 2 is seated. Next we order and I got the whipped hot honey ricotta, essentially would have been great had they made it fresh or thawed it out at least. Instead, you can tell it's pre-made and left in fridge as it was cold and stiff, unlike what you would want your whipped soft ricotta with warm hot honey. Honey was cold stiff just bad all around. Should have known from start as the olive oil for the bread is cheap with no taste. Pistachio pasta was saucy and salty and pasta was not fresh nor Al dente. Chicken Paillard was over seasoned as well. Just because you another it with Italian seasoning doesn't make it Italian. Overall don't see them lasting long in Miami. Overpriced for subpar food.

Just to be clear, it’s not an “Italian” restaurant.. the server told us that it’s a “steakhouse”. We order one of theirs famous pasta dishes and to our surprise the server told a us “we don’t have anymore” at 8:30pm … ???? we order another pasta dishes + chicken and meat . My meat arrived to the table first, 10 minutes later one more dish of pasta “cold”. We send it back .. I finish my dish and after 25… yes 25 minutes the other dishes arrived .. pasta again “cold” . So I watched my friends eat their dinner 25 minutes after I finished . Long story short, extremely noisy, extremely expensive, terrible service . Waiter was so nervous I felt bad for him . Good guy and definitely not his fault . By the way , why do we have to order all the food together at once and then they bring all the food separate??.

My boyfriend and I love this spot! We went for the second time with some friends and it was just as good as our first experience. the food is amazing, the vibe is great, and the service was 10/10. I highly suggest the grilled branzino and for dessert the hazelnut rocher!!

Perfect place for a romantic date night experience. Great ambiance, the live performers are pros. Food is 10/10. We had the pistachio pesto pasta, best arugula salad in town, and the rib eye. Can’t wait to be back!

The food was phenomenal, the restaraunt was full, and the atmosphere was great. They had a live singer who was amazing although the music was a bit too loud. Would definitely go back.
