This is what you can expect if you choose to dine with us. And we hope you will. The name Sarita is a nod to Chef Anthony Romano’s mentor, plus the name of a song by the New Orleans band, The Subdudes, one of the chef’s favorites. The restaurant is owned by executive chef Romano. His approach to Sarita is fairly simple: to create a space that’s a reflection of his kind of place.relaxing, fun and celebrate life in the company of friends and family with good food and a great cocktail in hand.

Always reliably good food keeps us coming back, especially when entertaining out of town guests. We liked the cozier vibe of the prior decor but the newer redo is refined and classic. Salmon is their specialty and it’s in the name for a reason - done to perfection with just the right amount of sides. Great service always rounds it off. A bit pricey but that’s okay as long as the food and service remain consistently excellent.

The Four Step Wings were sublime. Can never go wrong with the Roasted Beets. We had the Fried Chicken Sandwich & the Westsiders Burger. Our waitstaff, Flynn, was attentive & pleasant.

Our meal and service were outstanding. My only complaint is the same that I experience in many restaurants now- It's so loud we have trouble even talking to each other at the table. What happened to polite dinner conversation? I'm not talking about the bar area, that had fun music playing that created a festive atmosphere.
