" An entertaining dinner with friends! The pasta was delightful, and the desserts were definitely a highlight as they were also homemade. The atmosphere was lively, and we had some nice conversation, too. The service was great—a perfect balance of being attentive without being overbearing! I'll be back to try other menu items for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was underwhelming. The food was overpriced, and the portions were smaller than expected. I had the burger which was decent, but not memorable. The atmosphere was nice, but the service was average. I felt like I could have gotten better quality and value elsewhere, which is disappointing given the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I decided to celebrate our anniversary at The Little Sparo after hearing so much about it. The ambiance was romantic with beautiful views. The food quality was impressive; however, I found the portioning a little small for what I expected from a fine dining restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews, I had to check this one out. The Little Sparo did not disappoint. From the ambiance to the menu, everything was top-notch. I had the scallops appetizer, and they were cooked to perfection. The entrée was the halibut pasta, which had a delightful flavor. The portions are just right for a fine dining experience. This place is perfect for special occasions. " (*Curated Review*)

" This hidden gem in St. John's knows how to deliver an amazing dining experience! The homemade pasta is divine and their wine selection is remarkable. We loved every dish we tried, and the service was impeccable. One highlight was when the manager came by to check on our meal—it’s those little touches that make a difference. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Little Sparo is an absolute must-visit for anyone in St. John's. The service was quick and friendly, and the cocktails were delicious. I ordered the pappardelle and it was beautifully cooked. The only downside was the possibly overly generous portions; I found it a bit too much. Fun place with vibrant energy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner recently and it was a treat! It started with some lovely antipasti, and I followed that with a seafood pasta that was mouthwatering. The service was friendly and efficient. We felt well taken care of the entire night. The atmosphere complemented the meal perfectly. I recommend the tiramisu for dessert! " (*Curated Review*)
