    Fantastic Friday evening meal - new menu that still features from classic dishes. Highly recommend the beef carpaccio app, entrees were fantastic - fettuccine bolognese & bronzini. Sevice was great, despite the fact it seemed they were understaffed that evening. Always a gret experience..

    Two dinners, two reactions. My husband had the special: pasta with clams and calamari. He found the pasta to be bland and watery. I ordered branzino that sat atop some broccolini. The fish was delicious but the broccolini was undercooked, making it a chewing event. Our two salads, one shrimp cocktail and one arugula, were fine. The server had many tables to cover so he was quite busy. Other staff members got things for us when needed. The server has been at the restaurant for some time and is a very pleasant person.

    Book this restaurant! The food, atmosphere, and service were top notch from our greeting to getting the check. We ordered the calamari for a starter and for our entrees had the veal and spinach ricotta raviolis respectively. To say we savored our diners would be an understatement. The service was incredible, the cadence was perfect - we were always attended to, but no one hovered. We wanted for nothing and appreciated the clean silverware after our appetizers. We had theatre tickets so we did not have the chance to get dessert but they looked amazing! We plan to go back for the full experience!

    Not our furst time dining at Sotto Sopra and as usual our main course was outstanding. I recommend the Fruit de Mare. We were a little disappointed in the appetizer beets snd burrata, the arugula was wilted or too much dressing and the carrots too hard but the dessert! Cheese cake and pan-a cotta excellent. The restaurant is stunning and the owner and staff lovely. Our inly real complaint is we asked for a certain table and although the previous diners had paid their check they would not leave so after 20 minutes we were seated somewhere else. What can restaurants do with this issue? Otherwise we can not wait to go back!
