Sabrina's has been one of my Burlington, CT favorites for many years now. The food is always consistent, delicious and filling. Not to mention the inside setup is the perfect size for a quick bite or a small family party. If you ever have a chance to chat with the owner or staff you'll see how much dedication they put into the business! read more

Sabrina’s Restaurant - Gyro w/ Fries - Italian Near Me - Burlington, Connecticut

Delicious pizza- the best since we moved here from NY. We got the thick crust and it was just the right amount of cheese to crust ratio. The crust was nice and chewy and delicious, sauce was good too! I was pleasantly surprised and I will definitely be going back for more read more

We got a sandwich, mozzarella sticks and a pizza. The sticks were room temp and the pizza was hardly cooked. I put it all in the oven to try to heat/ re-cook my freshly gotten pizza but it only made it worse. Maybe they have decent meals, but what we got was not one of them. I'm embarrassed to have paid such money for what tasted worse than a frozen pizza. In the picture, the missing slices were put in the oven to try to cook them. read more

Best chicken parm I've had in a long time. Was coming back from Hartford hospital, was very hungry, stopped here and wasn't disappointed. Even though it was a little late, we were seated and served without issue and food was fresh and delicious. Their bread is outstanding and was the star of the meal. A+ will go again. read more

We ended up here by chance. Drove from Hartford to get food at LaSalle in Collinsville but they're closed for the holiday weekend. So glad we found this place!!!!!! Our waitress was wonderful, and they have a nice little patio and were having live music. I had the calamari posillipo and I think it may have been the best sauce I've ever had!!!!!! Will definitely be visiting here again!!!! read more

Sabrina’s Restaurant - Calamari Posillipo - Italian Near Me - Burlington, Connecticut

We throughly enjoyed coming to Sabrina's. Mary, the owner made you feel welcomed. My husband had the chicken Marsala which he says is one of the best he ever had. The shrimp Fra Diavolo was delicious, just the right amount of spiciness. We also saved some room for the cheesecake which was heavenly! read more

We've eaten at Sabrina's twice now in the past month. First time, we ordered the #23 pizza, the Sorrentino (Eggplant, Ham, Chicken). Thought it was decent, good enough to come back again and try other items on the menu. So we did a takeout order from them this week. My wife had the Eggplant parmigiana, I went with a meatball grinder. My wife felt the eggplant was mushy, she only finished half of it (I brought it for lunch the next day, was underwhelmed). Meatballs in my grinder were OK, but I felt the marinara had too many onions in it. Couldn't detect the flavor of the sauce, just crunchy onions. My opinion is that Sabrina's Restaurant is a weak 3 Star rating. Don't see a reason to return for mediocre food. read more

Sabrina's has excellent Italian food and pizza! It is very unassuming but the food is some of the best in CT for Italian. We regularly order take-out. If you live near by or passing by and want great Italian cooking, give Sabrina's a shot. The pizza is excellent too! read more

We stopped in today for lunch during a long drive home. What an absolute delight the restaurant is! The owner and staff are fantastic and the perfectly attentive! We got a pizza and the baked ravioli. Both were fantastic!! From the bread and sauce to start with to the salads to the meals, it was a 10/10 meal. Even the music was wonderful. We will definitely go back next time we're in the area! read more

Sabrina's was a delicious treat in the middle of central Connecticut. All the food is homemade, and the value is amazing. (See my photos!) For $15, Lori N. got delicious eggplant parm *and* homemade pesto on penne. We could have seriously split that alone and invited more people to share. I loved my cavatelli with sausage and broccoli, which was also scrumptious and huge. Both mains also came with a house salad. The bread basket comes with a special garlic sauce, which was addictive. Big shout out to Wendi, who was entertaining and just the right amount of attentive throughout our meal. I only wish Sabrina's was closer to me! Though I suppose it's good that it's not because I would likely eat there all the time. read more

We tried Sabrina's recently because we were in Burlington and it was nearby. They have a lot of outdoor seating which is great when weather permits. Seating inside is very limited. The wait staff was very kind and cordial. We were greeted with warm bread rolls and a tomato based pesto which was delicious. We were a party of 3 and 2 of the 3 meals were great. The soup of the day was a Hungarian soup that was amazing. The salads were fresh. The chicken cacciatore was great, the pasta with vodka sauce was good, but the veal Marsala was disappointing (very light on sauce and mushrooms, and too heavy on onions). We will try again, simply because it was so quaint and the server was exceptional. read more

Love Sabrina's Restaurant food always fresh & delicious. Has a clean cozy country atmosphere that's inviting. Outside dining weather permitting. Worth checking out. One of our favorite spots here in Gods Country read more

They do serve wine and beer but it's a limited selection because it's a small restaurant. Desserts are also limited. But after her dinners you might not be hungry for a dessert unless you are a huge eater. lol. She has a great secret dipping sauce that we go crazy for served with the tablet rolls. I can never finish my meal and have leftovers for the next day. I love their rustic calzones, the cheese ravioli, and my husband's fav is Veal Sabrina. They do serve wine and beer but it's a limited selection because it's a small restaurant. Maybe 6-7 booths, but she has outside seating in summer on a quiet small patio set back from the main road. Desserts are also limited. But after her dinners, you might not be hungry for a dessert unless you are a huge eater. lol. read more

Really enjoy their food, but with my recent take out experience, I paid just shy of $18 for the eggplant parm. Got home to find out that they forgot to include the pasta. So small salad, bread and eggplant. Def hate getting home and finding out part of the meal is missing. read more

Even though we've been living in this lovely town for a few months already, we went to Sabrina's only a couple of weeks ago for the first time: this little hidden jewel is fantastic!!! The food is delicious, the service is incredibly friendly, and the portions are huge! Mary, the owner, is a very sweet lady...one can't help but be fond of her immediately, it's like you've known her forever; and she goes above and beyond to make sure that everything is perfect! My hubby and I can't wait to go back for more, we truly enjoyed our lunch experience there - I'm so happy that we found our new favorite restaurant in Burlington, yay! read more

Sabrina’s Restaurant - Chicken Francese...yum! :) - Italian Near Me - Burlington, Connecticut

This is a great little restaurant. It IS a full blown restaurant. Wait staff and the whole bit. We've been gauging our pizza by the buff chicken lately, this one is excellent. If you prefer grilled chicken to breaded, like we do, you can request it. Here's the best part, I mentioned full blown restaurant, right? So, I've had their risotto, never been disappointed. I've had their surf and turf special, which changes from time to time, never been disappointed. This may be a bit hard to find, but it's worth it. If you're yelping, you'll find it and enjoy it. read more

For those saying the "pizza is amazing" I'm just curious if you know good pizza? Sadly, this wasn't it. We stopped in after heading back from Litchfield only to find that this place was take out only. The woman behind the counter was rude to the point where it appeared she was annoyed to be there. The pizza was mediocre at best, with the sauce being bland. There are plenty of other pizza restaurants to go to, including Domnos. I can't recommend. read more

Great local place. Had only been here once before and the server and owner remembered us. The special sauce that comes with the bread is absolutely to die for. I would come here for that alone. We had mozzarella sticks as an app and those were perfectly made. After the bread, salad and app I was full, we definitely over did it on ordering but everything was so good. My son had a bowl of the Italian wedding soup, he ate the entire bowl which is a rarity. We live close so this place will be a regular dinner place for me. read more

Wife and I had dinner there and it was fantastic. I had Chicken Francese and wife had Caesar Salad with grilled shrimp. We would recommend either meal. The service was perfect and it wasn't too busy so we were able to have a nice conversation without it being drowned out by music or other noise. Will be back again next time to try the Chicken Marsala. read more

Wow! Definitely a hidden gem. Outstanding food and service. Zuppe de pesce was excellent.Large portions. small but cozy great music .relaxing atmosphere .entire staff extremely friendly can't wait to go back!! read more

Just been back to sabrina's again it was amazing and plan to come back as soon as I can. Probably even tonight...... just a follow up I did go back to Sabrinas this evening and got some wonderful takeout food for my wife and I it was terrific I do not live in the area so I look forward to coming back here again next time I'm around here .we would especially like to eat inside they are very friendly people very accommodating and it's a nice little place to have a quiet meal in so I do look forward to having a chance to do that read more

Fantastic food! Such a great find in Burlington - we had the Eggplant Rollatini and Eggplant Parm. Both were great! The staff was very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. read more

Very disappointed - this is the second time I ordered delivery and the second time the order arrived totally incorrect! Mind you I waited over an hour to get this incorrect delivery and I live 8 mins away. The owner was very accommodating and redid the order and sent back out both times, and correct orders tasted good both times - for these reasons I gave them a 2 instead of a 1. My question is - if taking orders is the problem, why would eating in be any better if an experience? read more

We have lived in Burlington for 3 years and never tried Sabrina's. It wasn't until a hunger for Fettuccine Alfredo and other restaurants closed due to Coronavirus that led us to Sabrina's. Food is excellent and staff very friendly. We will surely be going back, not only try more of their menu, but to continue to support a local business. This is now one of our go to places. read more

Nephew brought pizza for my birthday. Meh...thin, small, not a lot of flavor and kind of $$$ but then, I'm not buying, so, thanks for the thought. Would not order when on my own. Lots better pizza out there. read more

You need to set some time aside for this gem. She is the only cook and gets hit with big take out while you wait. But wait is so worth it. Real deal here. read more

We went to Sabrina's on July 27, 2014 to check it out, and what a great surprise. Nice restaurant with a very pleasant staff. We were fortunate to meet the Chef/owner, who was gracious and most friendly. We looked at the menus, which I might add is impressive! We said that we would call later to to order meals to be picked up. Both my husband and I ordered the Italian Combo, which is stuffed shells, lasagna, & manicotti, and comes with homemade rolls, and salad. Our meals were absolutely delicious. The salads were made with all fresh ingredients, and the Balsamic dressing, which is house made, is the best that we have ever had. All 3 of our stuffed pasta's on the combo were cooked to perfection the sauce is house made, and just delicious. The meat sauce in the Lasagna delicious, and not heavy. What was amazing to us is the freshness of the food, as well as it is not heavy, and cooked so well that you are able to taste this wonderful tomato sauce, and the fillings in the stuffed shells, manicotti & lasagna were delicious as well. The rolls that we had were baked to perfection.. The serving size is so generous, that we had leftovers the following night, and they were just as good as the first night. We have gone to many local Italian Restaurants , and Sabrina's is the best, and I would recommend it to our family and friends. We are looking forward to trying all the items on the menu. There are so many items, and they all sound very appealing. Sabrina's in a wonderful compliment to the Town of Burlington. read more

I may be biased because I'm a regular since I moved to this bucolic New England village, but...I'm a regular. I'm also a classically-trained chef in my own right. I know food: I wouldn't eat here or recommend it if it were not one of the hidden jewels of NW CT. The waitstaff is perky and friendly; the kitchen staff is friendlier, always willing to take special requests or answer questions at table-side about their offerings. What the decor lacks in sophistication is made up for the homeliness of the dining area--it has the cozy feel of being in someone's dining room. What really matters is the food. The bread is baked fresh daily and the bread dip, a tomato-and-oil-based tapenade with fresh spices, is exceptional. Really, it may be the best thing they serve. The dinner side-salad is fairly standard: lettuce, tomatoes, carrot, onions, green pepper and kalamata olives. The dressings are from a jar. The entree selections on the menu are standard-fare for mid-market Italian-cuisine from a pizza place but the quality is well above standard. I am a particular fan of the cheese ravioli. The pizza is markedly better than the standard pizza joint, even here in CT, itself home to some of America's best pizza. The variety and quality of toppings is great. Both whole-grain and white crusts are available. This is truly an unexpected gem. read more

This place BLEW ME AWAY tonight for take-out dinner. I'm normally hesitant to order Italian food from anywhere that's not the North End in Boston or Wooster St. in New Haven. This place did not disappoint. I ordered the Manicotti and it was excellent. The pasta was home-made and the sauce was outstanding, I could eat it by the spoon full. The portion was enough for dinner tonight and lunch tomorrow. They served it complementary with house made warm rolls and a crisp fresh salad. The rolls were soft and served with a garlic parmesan dipping sauce which was delicious and addicting. The fried mozzarella sticks were perfectly crisp and the batter was full of flavor. I never write Yelp reviews but this one was warranted. Please try their take-out if you want to feel like you are eating true authentic Italian food and if you are a marinara snob. read more

I must have cought the owner on a bad day, she has a special sauce that she says is her sauce and is very arrogant without telling us what was in it. The pizza was under cooked and the sausage is nasty. When asked "how is it?" She ignored us. I do not recommend this place. read more

Sabrina’s Restaurant - Uncooked!!!! - Italian Near Me - Burlington, Connecticut

If you're in the mood for authentic Italian cuisine...look no further. Take the extra drive, it is so worth it! And be careful to not pass it, as it is an unassuming quaint little spot. The food is an experience, it's like eating out of nonna's kitchen! Aside from the amazingly delicious food, the portions are HUGE and staff are super friendly. For starters, their rolls with garlic-y marinara were to die for! Bring your antacid with you, you won't regret it. The Italian salad came shortly thereafter. Ummm...YUM!! I had the Saturday special...wait for it... Bacon wrapped cheese stuffed chicken with lemon infused risotto. Heaven, anyone? We finished our trip with homemade cannolli. The literal icing on the cake! In the words of the Terminator...I'll be back! read more

Mary, the owner, is welcoming & friendly - and a fine cook. Pizza is consistently good, but the veal parmigiana is exquisite and the chicken piccata is a close second. Soups and breads are strong here as well. read more

Came here for lunch with some work associates. It was sunny and comfortable so the outside seating was perfect. I had the gyro which was very good and another person in our group had the meatball grinder. She thought the meatballs were fantastic. I'd like to come back and try some of the other dishes. read more

What an amazing surprise find in Burlington! Jess L. and I were hesitant bc there were only 6 Yelp reviews but our daring was rewarded. Incredibly generous portions gave me three meals of eggplant Parmesan and penne w pesto. The special garlic sauce served w bread was a treat and the salad to start was crunchy and fresh. read more

Sabrina’s Restaurant - Special sauce w house made bread is amaze-balls - Italian Near Me - Burlington, Connecticut

Some of these reviews leave me wondering if anyone has ever eaten delicious food ?? Tried Sabrina's tonight . Highly disappointed . Ordered pizza and wings . Just average . Will not return because the table cloth was dirty and service was painfully slow . No celery with the wings? Pizza was very small and tiny slices . Mediocre tasting sauce . No ambiance at all not even a radio on ... Sorry ! read more

Pizza was marginal at best , calamari was undercooked, chicken parm was just average , nothing special. Probably won't be back

Home-made tasting Italian food that will leave you wanting to return again and again. One of our favorites is the chicken parmesan. Best we've ever had. And the sauce is delicious and home-made. Great place to grab some tasty Italian food, go and try it, you will love it. read more

It's a hit or miss sometimes food is great other times horrible long delivery times it's to bad in the beg it was a great place

Veal Parmesan and Filet of Sole Florentine are both spectacular. Also pay attention to the red sauce that comes with the bread.

What a gem this place is!! The food is delicious and extremely large portions. I always have left-overs to take home and they are just as delicious heated up the next day. Mary, the owner, is so sweet and friendly. You will just love her. She has such a passion for cooking and most importantly, she always goes above and beyond to please each and every customer. The waitresses, Pauline and Jayna are friendly and very attentive. My husband and I go there every week with friends and they remember what our drink order is. They are like family. I love the pizza! I've had many different kinds and every single one has been scrumptious! The buffalo chicken pizza is superb! Actually, I have loved everything I've ever ordered. If you have never been to Sabrina's Restaurant, you must go! You won't be disappointed. Such a gem right in the center of Burlington! read more
