SUNDAY BRUNCH BEGINNING MARCH 31, 2024!At Sarto, we believe that poring over the details is always worth it; and that the joys of a meal go far beyond the food itself. In keeping with Italy’s authentic, old-world traditions, we’ve approached our menu in much the same way an Italian chef opening a restaurant here in America might ── with dishes composed of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, that honor our region in a modern way.Prepared from an open concept kitchen, our menu features modern Italian fare made with the freshest local ingredients Rhode Island has to offer, complimented by award – winning wines and a carefully curated cocktail program.Sarto is located just moments from local performing arts and convention centers in the historic Teste brownstone building. Originally built in 1860, our restaurant was once home to an apothecary, a money-to-loan business and later the Philip Wolfe Haberdasher, which inspired the name Sarto or tailor in Italian.

An inviting craft cocktail bar offering classics, originals, inspired & familiar flavors.

For more than half a century Antonio Conte dutifully served the professionals in the city's center, with an old world style haberdashery, providing suits, outer ware and evening attire. For more than 2 years the Needle and Thread was constructed piece by piece with the same attention to detail and love Mr. Conte poured into every garment he constructed.

A Good Spot for Drinks and Apps, but Double-Check Your Bill We visited this spot for the first time for a Friday date night, arriving around 6:30 pm. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, which was nice for an early evening out. We decided to take advantage of their "Appy Hour" menu (weekdays 5-7 pm), offering half-priced appetizers. We ordered oysters, the flatbread with prosciutto, and four drinks. The food and drinks were excellent, especially the oysters and flatbread. However, we were charged full price for the appetizers, and unfortunately, we didn’t realize it until after we left. A small oversight on our part, but it’s worth mentioning—be sure to double-check your bill. The only other hiccup was the temperature; it was a bit chilly inside until about 7 pm. That said, it’s a cool spot with a nice vibe, and the quality of the food and drinks made up for the small inconveniences.
