Dependably excellent quality eat-in or take-home. – My husband was a Chef so I can appreciate the difficulty that goes into keeping a place clean and maintaining a quality product. When first going to Sagra i was impressed with the quality and cleanliness Very good quality. The dining room is simple. You can order beer, wine or a cocktail with your meal if you eat in. It is a very homey atmosphere designed to allow the food to be the diamond in the rough..and there are 8 outside tables with umbrellas. I have eaten there many... read more

never disapoints – How often have you been to this restaurant? A few times How long have you wait for a table? 5-15 min. Noise level: Normal conversation Quality of food: Excellent Quality of service: Good Comments: Contemporary, intimate dining room with a nice bar. Food is interesting -- even the lasagna has a fresh take on what you'd normally expect. Everything I've tried so far has been worth the extra price. In the 6 months I've lived in the area, I've already been here three times. I haven't yet found an Italian restau... read more

My friends and I love this place – The ambience is wonderful, the service is great and the food is excellent. We will go back in a heartbeat. It is so nice to have this quality of restaurant in Austin! The portions are very big. We thoroughly enjoyed everything, although the minestrone is a bit thicker than is classic and had no legumes. The salad dressing and all the sauces were excellent and rich; The boar shanks were so tender they melted in your mouth and the pork chop was thick and juicy with a fabulous marsala sauce.

Why go anyplace else in austin – This Italian restaurant is a favorite of mine and my husband's. We recommend this place to our friends, and bring people to eat there if they want to go for Italian when in Austin The food is outstanding- large portions at a terrific price. However, there are too many tables jammed into a small area, so it is quite noisy. Sitting outside is a little better, although not very intimate. yum

don't waste your time or money – the service was not bad, however, and especially for the price, the food was not that good. the Frutti de Mare was bland, the calimari was way over breaded and the cheese plate was sparse, and that's being kind. the one thing i couldn't get over was the seating, the chairs were so close i got a butt across the back of my headm everytime someone was seated. and as the waitstaff walked by they kicked my chair legs 3 or 4 times. there are so many restaurants to choose from in austin, this place ... read more

Just like eating in Italy – We were going to a game and decided to try this place. The food was really deliciuos and served in a profesional timely fashion. We were a group of 8, so things could have gone wrong, but everything was really great. All of our appetizers were great, all came on time and were served to the right person without tossing the plates around. Our server was very attentive. We had some great salads, one my friend had was with prociutto, served in a big bowl, very nice presentation. .... It was amazing!!!... read more

Really really good – After 12 years and 3 kids my wife and I are trying to add more "us time" to our marriage. We We had a 6pm seating but got there and 5:45 and were sat right away. We had a very romantic table on the patio next to the. We are not big wine drinkers but both had a glass, nothing expensive, to help set the mood. We both had tortelini soup, and split 2 appetizers. It was very tasty. I had chicken over arugala with thinly sliced proscuitto. It was mouth watering. We both had the chocolate souffle with vanilla i... read more

love it – We were back in Austin for our annual trip, just arrived Saturday night. We settled in at our hotel and then began the deliberation process of where to eat as we were both famished. The light bulb went off, and we remembered the place we'd tried the previous year that we'd really enjoyed. The problem was, we couldn't remember the name. However, we did have a general idea of where it was located. So trekked out to conquer the streets in search of grub. We got lucky and found it on the first try, back over on 17th. W... read more

Always amazing – A bit out of the way, but worth it if you find yourself in that part of town. I am not part of the young and hip, but I like going to Sagra. The atmosphere is nice (white table cloths, candles, flowers) and it is not too noisy. if the weather is good the outdoor area is to die for. And I love the food. The truffle oil pizza alone is worth the trip. Not like any other pizza I have ever had, it is round and has cheese but other wise has little in common with pizza It is light and delicate and amazing. The othe... read more
