Why it's worth checking out
Sahra By The River sits on Phillip Street in Parramatta, on the river in Sydney's west. A much-loved restaurant, it makes the most of its lovely riverside position — combining quality, flavour-packed cooking with a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful setting with lovely views over the water, the kind of crowd-pleasing spot that's become a genuine favourite.
The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks offering and a lovely riverside Parramatta location, ideal for a relaxed meal, a special dinner, a meal with friends or a sociable night out with lovely water views. The gorgeous riverside setting and a quality offering make it a real draw, and Sahra has clearly won over a big, loyal following.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 1,400 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular riverside restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table by the river in Parramatta.
