This is a fairly good Italian restaurant, with good service and decent food. It does not compare to the best Italian restaurants, however it is perfectly acceptable for an enjoyable night out.

My wife & I have been going to Sardi's for many years. It is by far our favourite dining venue. Reasons? Firstly, the food is inevitably delicious with a very reasonable choice. Secondly, we go because of the warmth of the welcome from Salvatore and all his staff, & because we know that his brother, Francesco, is in the kitchen... More

As always, Sardis blow the mind and palate with perfectly cooked food of the highest quality. This has to be one of top ten places to eat in the northeast. We have never had a meal that has NOT failed to get the taste buds going. The experience and atmosphere is hard to match!!!!

I had heard that this place was good but a bit pricey however I can recommend the place no problem-the food and service was perfect-an excellent all round experience that was well worth the money.

We have been dining at Sardis in Darlington since 1990 and although we now live in Cheshire, we always try to visit it when in the north east. It always ticks all the boxes and has never disappointed. Excellence personified. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Just awful. Visited on a Thursday evening. The place was dead (and still the snotty waiter made us feel like it was an imposition as we had not booked a table). The menu is so outdated, printed on paper and laminated so it can be wiped clean Very little choice for vegetarians. I chose a cheese and asparagus souffle -... More

I took my husband out for a meal for his birthday and as usual there was a very warm welcome from Salvatore, Andrew and the rest of the staff. It doesn't matter if they don't see you for months they never forget you. It has got that Salvatore knows what we drink, how I like my steak. Francesco has to... More

We visited the restaurant recently to belatedly celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary after receiving a voucher for the restaurant from family. It's several years since we visited and were excited to re-visit as it still held its reputation as the No.1 restaurant in Darlington. On arrival we were met and offered the opportunity to enjoy a welcome drink in the... More
