    On a repeat visit, Sorella continues to please us. From the Kay, the hostess, to the waitstaff, to the chef, they all made us feel welcomed. All the food was artfully prepared and delicious. The cocktails were expertly prepared and creative. If you want to give it a try, you won’t be disappointed!

    Sorry but this was a complete mess. Several of the pastas were overcooked, and the desserts were not enjoyed by any. Charging premium prices for Cal-Italian that needs a lot of work.

    The food was excellent. It was loud. It took a bit of time to get our order in. They were hopping. I will be going back. I woke up this morning yearning for more stuffed squid and chicory salad.

    Sorella was the perfect spot for our girls’ night out! The food was amazing, the drinks were on point, and the vibe was just right. Giancarlo stopped by to chat with us, adding a personal touch that made the night even more special. We laughed, we sipped, we indulged—what more could you want? We’ll definitely be back!
