    It was fine. We booked last minute on Mother's Day. Went with my husband and 2 kids (7 and 9). We were sat in a front room so I didn't see the entire place but it seemed nice. Our meal was $161 for 2 glasses of wine, 1 beer, 2 pastas, 1 pizza and 5 tapas. The pastas were tiny. The food was good but not great. I'd go back if someone invited me but I might not plan a return trip myself.

    Mother's Day brunch was a disappointment. There was a buffet that basically ran out of food. $47 for some scrambled eggs, ham and a croissant! I've found that restaurants that I usually enjoy don't usually do well with an event for a holiday.

    We usually enjoy our time at Sputino, but this Mother’s Day we tried the brunch and it was a very different experience. I learned only at the time we were seated that it is a buffet only brunch, no ordering off the menu. Also there was no mention of buffet pricing. While food was very good, it was a very expensive. We were 4 adults, only 3 of us did the buffet brunch, and through much wrangling, my son who has a very limited diet, ordered a plain burger. For drinks, 3 of us ordered one alcohol free cocktail (which were in the tiniest glasses I have ever seen, maybe 3-4oz), my son ordered one coke. Total bill, $240? Thats $60 pp, I’m still trying to figure it out?

    As always, food was excellent (especially the mussels) - portions were as expected. Drinks are a little expensive, but over all - we love this place!

    Great space for lunch. It was nice and quiet so you could easily have a conversation. They have a very good prix fixe lunchtime special menu for $15. The choices were varied and the size of the entrees large enough to fill. They didn't skimp on quality or quantity.

    Me and my friends had such an amazing time last night celebrating my birthday. Our server was Connor and he didn’t hesitate to answer our questions and to find answers to the questions he didn’t know off the top of his head. He really made our experience a great time along with the amazing food.
