About this restaurant

Innovative
Good for special occasions
Romantic

Just minutes away from the ethereal Longwood Gardens, Sovana Bistro has been a staple in the Unionville community since opening twenty four years ago and has evolved into a highly regarded dining destination. The kitchen and bar create simple hand-made items, inspired by ingredients sourced locally at the peak of their season. We cater to dietary restrictions offering house-made gluten free and vegetarian options. The service reflects a gracious approach to hospitality and genuine concern for each and every guests experience.

We take that same thoughtful care in event planning, offering catering and in-house private functions. Please visit our website www.sovanabistro.com for group reservations, catering and private events.

Our seasonally inspired lunch menu is available daily and both lunch and brunch menus are available on Saturdays. Outdoor tables are available for reservations on our front patio, weather pending. Our bar area is first come, first serve.

This is a fantastic restaurant. First time visitor, and we loved it. Great menu, delicious lunch, and the best bloody mary ever. Service was outstanding.

I used to love SB. The menu is tired and doesn't offer enough options. You used to get a bit more for your money and I just feel like we are paying for the rebuild. They also charge for using Credit card now. The service was superb and everything was timely, just don't think I'll be back for a while

Lunch with a friend was a great experience. Our server Nolan was prompt not intrusive knew the menu and just great. Our food arrived sooooo quickly and was delicious. I’d make sure to save room for dessert which was scrumptious (molten chocolate cake with coffee gelato). We’ve been here often, Sovana is a real gem.
