Understated in exterior appearance but absolutely amazing!
I've been living in Newmarket for about 3 years and I know I've driven past Spero but hadn't noticed it. I regret that I've overlooked this restaurant all this time - you must check it out! We went out as a group of ladies on a Friday night for dinner and had a great time! I was blown away by the decor and ambiance from the minute I walked in. A man (who I believe is the owner) greeted me warmly and saw a few of us to our table right away. I enjoyed the fresh pasta in my main dish, and the salad was perfectly dressed - not too much, not too little - and delicious. I noted with interest my friends' selections - a bruschetta-type pizza and a "garlic bread" pizza which was out of this world. My main was a tagliatelle with chicken and sun-dried tomato - the fresh pasta was to die for. The portions were generous, so much so that I ate to my heart's content and still had leftovers to take home (for lunch the next day!). I enjoyed the tiramisu, one of the best I've tried anywhere, and the coffee was perfect, would love to find out what they brew there.
I am definitely ordering takeout from this location to try that bruschetta pizza for myself as soon as I can, and this is now one of my new favourite restaurants in Newmarket. You must not overlook this restaurant, I don't think you'll be disappointed!
From the moment we entered on Valentine's day and were greeted with a warm smile and the evening was on! The dining room is so nice ... We kicked the night off with some mouth-watering martini's that were to die for. For appetizers, my wife had a caesar salad and I had a very delicious calamari ... a great start. For mains, I went for the Venison special which was outta-this-world and my better half did a mushroom risotto (which I did get to sample and was exquisite). To compliment the dinner, we washed it back with a battle of the '08 Joseph Phelps cab ... what an amazing wine and a great value (downtown your paying $30-$40 more for the same bottle). The desserts were decadent and to seal the deal, our wonderful server gave my wife a rose. My compliments - thanks Spero, see you soon. You pulled off an amazing dining experience for us and on Valentine's, wow...
great atmosphere...it's a nice small place and has a great feel to it. saturday night - make sure you book a reservation. we were seated right away however the service was a little slow. it was much better during the week, thought. great wine list and delicious menu. will go back again for sure!
Tried Spero for the first time recently as they hosted (their first) wedding, an occasion of a friend of mine. They food was incredible. The pasta was a penne with a tomatoe sauce, and the chicken was scrumptious. The salad was good as well, though very basic and the drinks were tasty, though perhaps a bit watered down. Would go again to see what they offer on a regular occasion. The decor was lovely and modern and the staff were kind.
BEST ITALIAN IN NM! great atmosphere, service and food! yumm!
I've been here a couple times, and have really enjoyed it. The server was gracious and friendly and very clean and polite and professional. It has more of an upscale atmosphere, indoors and its nicely decorated. They even have a patio area.
W spent aprox $70 to $100 for 2 each visit, with drinks and dinner and tip.
The mushroom risotto , and the salmon on saffron risotto are very delicious! The salmon was pan seared to perfection. the chicken alfredo parm sooo good, i had the leftovers a couple days later and still tasted great! Their martini list is tasty and the place has an authentic Italian feel to its menu.
I would recommend this place to anyone!
