About the restaurant

Our story begins with Snow White Laundry, a well-known Chinese-Newfoundland family business that served generations of residents in St. John's, Canada's oldest city. Today, Chef Ken Pittman, grandson of the laundromat's owner, carries that legacy forward through intention, emotion, and craft. Combining seasonal ingredients, thoughtful hospitality, and a deep connection to Newfoundland, we offer a dining experience that honors the past while creating something entirely new.

About the restaurant

There is nothing complicated about food, and nobody understood this better than the Italians. They knew that a delicious meal did not require elaborate preparation - just proper ingredients, and the passion and patience to let them work their magic. At The Little Sparo, we apply these principles in all we do. From our fresh baked naturally-leavened bread and pizza to our homemade extruded pasta, every item is prepared with gentle, attentive care. Come enjoy the comfort of Italian cuisine, in our newly renovated, open-concept restaurant with breathtaking views of the St.john's harbor that carries right through to the narrows. Book a table in our elegant dining room or come relax by the fireplace in our cozy, inviting lounge. Our kind and knowledgable staff are here to welcome you with the warm and friendly hospitality that Newfoundlanders are known for. Come join us for dinner!

My husband and I went for date night last night. And wanted to try Barrio and the experience was amazing. Abby was our server and she was great. My husband is from Labrador City and I'm from Nicaragua and it hit home. The food was absolutely delicious! And will definitely be coming back!

About the restaurant

Our mission? Great people helping other great people totally have a blast while enjoying amazing food. Wow, that was a mouthful. But can you blame us? We’re a restaurant. One that specializes in delicious food and great times. Our goal is to make you laugh. And depending on your hot sauce tolerance, cry.

In all seriousness, we take real pride in our food. Try our Cluckin’ Fresh Chicken Fingers, made and seasoned with fresh, never frozen chicken tenders. This isn’t run-of-the-mill pub grub. Our Band of Chefs are influenced by a wide variety of tastes and have travelled across the globe to gain inspiration.

But outside of the kitchen, we find it hard to take ourselves seriously. We have an Elvis booth. For no particular reason. Folks, that really does say it all. We’re sports fanatics, music nuts and love a good joke. If you’re into at least one of those things, we should hang out.
