Birthday dinner with the hubby! Tuna apps were delicious, Caesar was on point, Veal Milanse is his go to and it did not disappoint. Lobster gnocchi is my favorite and the eggplant rollatini is highly recommended. The chocolate molten cake with was served with vanilla ice cream was fabulous. The perfect special occasion spot. A bit pricey but worth it for a special night.

Your restaurant was recommended by friends who live locally and dine with you often. The food was fresh and delicious but our server was not great. He seemed annoyed by questions and when we asked for recommendations. My daughter and I were surprised by his demeanor. I felt like we were irritating him every time we asked a question. It spoiled the evening for me.

we have been to the restaurant several times and have always enjoyed the ambience, service, and food. Last night four of us dined and started with appetizers, including caesar salad, gazpacho soup, and the octopus--each dish was fabulous. For the main course, we all chose the vongole as we just love the dish when properly prepared. To our chagrin, we all found the dish to be too salty, the clams too large and chewy, and a bit too buttery. Vongole, when prepared simply, is a delight. However, in an attempt to embellish this one, the chef is way off base. Dessert sorbets were fine. On the whole, though we love Sorrelina, this meal was not a success

Just one small suggestion. We were a party of 2. The way the tables are set up is my only complaint. There were 3 tables of 2 then next to us was a party of 4. That group were obviously there for business and the conversation was constant and took away from the ambiance for us. If tables for small parties were placed separately from larger parties it would add to the pleasure of the evening.

We expected a lot given Sorellina’s reviews. The food was not good. The octopus was extremely salty. We complained and to their credit, they removed the charge for the dish. The veal chop, on the other hand, was underdone and had absolutely no flavor. Given the price, we expected a lot more than mediocre food.

Sorellina is a wonderful restaurant experience. The room is elegant and comfortable with some banquette seating (which I love). The menu is varied, has some pasta dishes that can be small plates or entrees, and has a mix of meat, fish, and other choices. The four of us exclaimed over the melon and proscuitto appetizer. We ordered different entrees and were pleased with all of them. Sorellina is expensive but wonderful for a special dinner with friends.

This was my second time dining at Sorellina. I’m a huge fan of the Columbus hospitality group — I love all their restaurants. Although the food was amazing, the service was a bit disappointing. We were celebrating our 2nd anniversary, something I noted in the reservation, and requested a booth or more private table. We were seated next to the bar and practically sitting with another table to our right. When ordering, we wanted to stagger our courses to enjoy our meal leisurely. The waitress assured us she wouldn’t put in the next course until we were finished with the current course… unfortunately that wasn’t the case. We ultimately felt rushed to finish our meal. As mentioned, the food was incredible - romaine salad, burrata, ravioli, halibut and filet. Will probably avoid for dinners where I’m looking for a bit more of an intimate setting.

Just love this place. Service is impeccable. Staff are true professionals—we have gone for years and see many familiar faces. Food is also great. Excellent variety, and there are usually a few new items on the menu. Gazpacho was superb. I also had the salmon. At many restaurants, salmon is boring, but not the way they do it here. I have never been anything but delighted by the food. Wine list is also fantastic with many less know, but excellent Italian wines. Staff knows the wines really well.

Our server was excellent--very attentive and friendly. Food was very good, from starters to dessert, although little pricey. For example, the bolognese was very good, but the price for entree was pretty steep for pasta and meat sauce. Ambience was outstanding all around, but especially for a special event. We celebrated a milestone anniversary and felt this was a perfect venue.

Such a treat to have professional servers. The food came at exactly the right temperature, plates placed at the same time for both of us. Well presented and cooked to perfection. We split a Caesar salad, which they split in the kitchen, a fresh anchovy (not too salty) included. Fresh romaine, delicate dressing, unique presentation. Our main was lobster gnocchi, perfect. House made and fresh ingredients, delicate flavors. The sommelier was prompt, came as we perused the wine list, and helped us make the perfect choice. More than we usually spend on wine but we went with her selection (others were presented) and it was a great choice for our meal. Portion sizes were just right.
