Our First time here & we will DEFINITELY be back! I live 1.5 hours from Canton, Oh, so if you are in the area, you ABSOLUTELY MUST stop here for dinner. They open at 5pm and get packed fast!The waitress was fantastic and the food was the best Ive had in years! My sister and I ordered the Cajun platter with steak, chicken & shrimp with a honey mustard sauce. Im not one for a honey mustard at all but that sauce was excellent with the Cajun spices. The meats were juicy, very tender and had fantastic flavor! 😋 The chicken and steak were the best Ive had in my lifetime! The waitress was very knowledgeable about everything on the menu and very helpful.
4/5 because our waitress was the nicest person ever! The food very good. Very buttery! What I did not like was the conversations being had with the bar tender and others involved with the restaurant. It was all about masks and vaccines. Other than that. Totally worth going to. I will be back!
My wife and our friends went there for our anniversary. We asked for specific seating and we were cheerfully accommodated. We had a round of drinks and were not rushed. Our meals were outstanding, best Greek salad around and great super tender fillets. Sparta made our celebration quite special!
We were in town for a dart tournament and found this cute little restaurant for dinner. The owner came to our table and showed us the best hospitality weve had anywhere and the food was outstanding!!! Highly recommended, prices are a bit above average but not bad at all for the fresh food.
Well run family owned steak house by a group of folks who are passionate about the food, drinks and service they deliver. I have eaten here dozens of time and have never been disappointed. Lately their large filet mignon has been our go to steak, add a side of mushrooms and peppers and the dining experience is very good. My wife ordered a small strip cooked medium to perfection. The server was a witty, fun individual who can read the table and know just how far she can tease, hands down Nicole makes dinning at Sparta fun. It’s also notable both the father and mother ( owners) make rounds offerings the warm welcome and when you leave the fond farewell. The drinks are generous, professionally poured with a great variety. Still the blue berry martinis are the best. Sparta Steak House in Canton Ohio - a class act.
A great experience overall. Very accommodating. They do not have a handicap accessible entrance. But, they guided us threw the back. One of the best steaks I have had in quite some time. Great crabcakes. I was told by quest. Best octopus in there life. Awesome cherry coke from the bar. Good job guys.
I personally love love the food and the place . I always order a Greek burger it’s my favorite . I always order carry out . I gave 3 stars because the last 3 times I’ve ordered my meal wasn’t correct . As I said I always order the Greek burger and I got my burger the last few times with nothing but lettuce very disappointed one of my favorite places . I eat here 1 a week maybe . Still very recommended to go dine in very friendly staff
Food was ok. Overpriced for sure. My date wanted to set in the corner booth but the hostess refused. He even offered to pay to rent the booth. She said no, I like to keep the bigger booths for bigger parties. This was on a wed night around 7pm when only 1 other party was in the building. We left around 8pm and still only 1 other party there. While the booth still set empty. Our waitress was polite and courtious. Menu is very limited.
Went with my husband last weekend and everything was amazing. We both ordered the steak and had calamari as our appetizer. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The calamari was amazing! Light and crispy. Not tough or over cooked! A lot of places tend to over fry calamari and it ends up tough. Not here! We loved it. They also make awesome drinks! My favorite was their blueberry mule! I definitely recommend them to everyone. Cant wait to go back!!!Also, side note..... Everyone was wearing a face covering and practicing social distancing. They are definitely taking all the precautions!
Though our server Nicole was awesome, the place was a little over priced and wasnt as cool as many have made it out to be. Thanks for a good Ribeye though, but Ill stick to Longhorn Steak House! At least of my 45 years of being alive, I can now take your restaurant from my bucket list finally.
I am very picky, to the point where I refuse to eat at most places. I am a regular here. That should say how good the service, and food is. It is well worth the trip downtown. The owners and staff really do treat you like family, and once they recognize you, they even memorize your favorite orders. I could write over a thousand words about this business, but you really should discover some of the magic on your own.
Food was ok, but not as good as it used to be. Always had great steaks before, but not anymore. For a party of 2, with 2 alcoholic beverages, and 1 appetizer, our bill was over 80.00. Come on guys, do you really believe your steaks are that good? There was a time that you could claim that but not now. Top it off, we waited 15 minutes before a waitress even came to our table. There was 2 parties there, but 10 people or less in each, and they had already eaten. No one else in the whole restaurant. So whats up with the service guys? First time after frequenting this establishment that I noticed the change in quality and service. Its too bad too, since this has always been one of my favorite steak places.
Ive been going here since I was a child. My grandparents are good friends with the owners, so ever time they would come visit, we would get dinner here. Now its mine and my husbands favorite date night spot. The food and cocktails are very yummy.This place is ALWAYS fantastic. Its a little pricey but very much worth the money. And the staff is extremely kind as well.
We had three bad steaks tonight. Asked for one steak to be recooked and still came out raw in the middle. The manager didnt even come to the table until one our party members stopped him. The manager was very defensive, unapologetic and cared more about the fact he had to cook two steaks then trying to make it right for the customer. Our server was very rude and also very unapologetic. The manager seemed to want to sit at the bar with his buddies than mange the restaurant. We understand not every steak can be cooked perfect but the second time around should of been cooked correctly. For how expensive the food is, it should be cooked to your preference. Poor management, poor people skills, poor food quality, and rude servers sums up our experience at this place. They will not get a second chance after I saw how much they care about the food they serve and respect to their customers. There are plenty of better places in town. check out benders they have way better quality and service!
I have been going here for the last 20 years. Another Canton treasure . Kitchen is open later than most places. Call for times to be safe. Steaks and seafood and specialty drinks are their Staples. Great wine selection. Nick and his dad and always wonderful crew are always ready to exceed your expectations. Especially for being in the hood. OPPA!
Creepy entre. But dont worry, everything tastes much better than what you might think at firdt sight. The interior decoration is enjoyable creating this Greek style with modern blue lighting combination -very cool. Fillet mignon was cooked to perfection just exactly how I asked. Simple garlicky flavor yet delicious. This place is perfect for families, romantic dates, friends hangouts and there is a bar so I would also suggest for single visitors.
It was prime rib weekend at the Sparta. The Sparta has the best prime rib in Canton.Of course all other aspects of the meal were great as usual. Our server was attentive as are all the servers there. I have been going to the Sparta since 1975. Great steaks great scrod great beef kabobs great everything!
I have been going to Sparta for 40 years. Unfortunately this time they were out of hamburger, then out of pork chops, ended up with the spaghetti. Decided on dessert, they were out of Coconut cream pie and the chocolate peanut butter pie! Why be open at all if the items on the menu are not available. Will probably never be back.
On this night we had a party of four. Two of us had steaks and two had seafood. As for the steaks, one a Porterhouse and one a Ribeye. Both steaks were on the bland side, not much for seasoning. The Porterhouse was about $8 more than Ribeye, which was told was around a 10oz. The Porterhouse was supposed to be around a18oz cut. They looked about the same size when they arrived, and the Porterhouse maybe being the smaller of the two. Broiled Scrod was very good. And linguini and shrimp was said to be satisfactory. The waitress was very nice and humorous. I would probably go back to try something other than the Porterhouse I had. The salads were very basic. Lettuce a cucumber slice and a hot pepper.
Best filets in Canton. The service is friendly and the food is consistently good. For a change, try the cajun blackened dish (small filet, chicken breast, shrimp) that has a sweetend cajun taste. If you like old-school, family owned establishments, this is the place for you.

2022-02-19This is such a cool place. It is essentially a house rennovated into a fancy restaurant. Perfect place for a date night. The food was spectacular and the portions were huge; I brought half of my meal home with me. Our waitress was absolutely fantastic and our food came out really fast for how busy they were. Would definitely recommend making a reservation as they get really busy.

2022-06-21Another solid meal at this Canton, OH staple. Parking is a little tight but park on the back road if you have to. Four of us went and had excellent service from one of the family members that owns it. I had the filet and Sparta fries (get them crispy) and just about everyone else had the scampi. A literal must if you visit. Always some good specials and tasty dessert options.

2022-05-05My daughter wanted to eat her for her birthday. I heard great things about the food and staff.I ordered a strip steak cooked medium..nice size and perfect color of pink but so darn DRY! I had a terrible time trying to chew it. Also ordered a twice baked potato. There was an upcharge for it. I got a half potato and it wasnt full. And as I said they charged more for it.It was a take out order but that shouldnt make a difference. I wont go back and I wont recommend this restaurant. What a waste of money!!

2022-05-19Well! I’ll never go back there again! Very disappointed with the whole experience! Me and my son went last night for dinner! I ordered a porterhouse, and my son ordered the grilled chicken! The side salad came to the table and it was literally lettuce on a plate with 2 cucumber slices and pepperchinis, and a drizzle of dressing, if I wanted a lettuce salad I could have had that at home! The steak was good and my son said the chicken was good, but if your going to serve fries you should let people know that there not really fries but thick half cooked potato chips! For $38 a meal, should have been more classy!!!

2022-05-22Food was very good. We had the fish & chips and the chicken parm. Server was friendly, attentive, and fast. Place was busy on a Saturday night so you might want to make RSVP.

2019-11-30The meal was just OK. Did not like the baklava unfortunately. The appetizers were very good, we tried the cauliflower, the flaming cheese, stuffed pepper and pita one? all were a hit! The highlight of the evening was the great service we received and the warm inviting atmosphere!

2019-12-24What a great find! Up the stair and enter the cozy confines of a second floor bar and restaurant! Excellent food and nice atmosphere. The staff was amazing. Helpful and friendly. Pricing was reasonable for the high quality of the fare. The only downside is parking but the hassles there were quickly forgotten. Well be going back!
