   Our server, Cassandra, was attentive and helpful. Food was very good and served in a timely manner. I will be back and bring others when we visit Banner Elk.

   I didn’t get our waiter’s name, but he was helpful with the menu and checked in on the table regularly. The food was amazing and I will definitely be back again!

   Bloody Mary was excellent. Eggs Benedict sauce not really warm and eggs not runny as expected for egg’s Benedict. It was the price that would make us not come back but rarely. $60 for breakfast for 2 is just not in our price range.

   We have always had delicious meals and great service at Sorrento’s. The crab cakes are fabulous!The only issues we have ever had is finding parking during some times of the year and noise level can be extremely high from 6-7:45 or so. We actually had to scream across the table to hear each other last night. As soon as that party left, no noise issue at all. Their rolls are probably the best we have ever had!

   Excellent menu and daily specials. We had halibut, salmon, crab cakes amongst us; all were delicious and they allowed subs on the sides. Parker was as good as any waiter I have enjoyed in 60 years of social and business dining during extensive travel. One negative....they charge an exorbitant credit card fee so we used cash. Please, don't stoop so low at such a fine restaurant; build the charges into your costs at the cost incurred rather than padding the bottom line.

   We were hungry and had just arrived in Banner Elk. We started with a basket of homemade rolls and a bottle of Banner Elk White, after our server, Christina let us taste a couple of different white wines. The Banner Elk White is delicious and inspired us to visit the winery. Christina took excellent care of us. I enjoyed the crabcake appetizer, which was my main entree, and my husband ate part of his meat and vegetable pizza, which was good, but not outstanding. The menu had a variety of food and prices, with pasta dishes that sound delicious. We filled up on too much bread and did not have room for dessert. Christina told us the flambe chef was there only on Sunday nights, and we watched him prepare flambe for another table. We took doggie bags for our leftover pizza and rolls. All in all a great experience.

    The stuffed mushrooms and bread rolls were awesome! The pasta was okay but was overpriced and lacking flavor. We may be back to try the bananas foster sometime.

    Great food, exceptional service, kind of pricey. Our main issue was that we wanted to talk to each other but had to shout. The music was wonderful but way too loud for that venue.

    Lovely restaurant. Food was terrific and our server, Carlos, was fantastic. After dinner, we stayed for a while at the bar because it was Karaoke night. The restaurant manager, bartenders and hosts were all service oriented and nice. We had a terrific experience and a lot of fun watching the performances.

    This was my first time to Sorrento’s and I will definitely be returning to try another of their delicious appetizers and entrees. Portions were very generous, garlic rolls were so good, calamari was tender and breading did not overpower it, and cannolis were crispy with a really good filling. The service was outstanding. My only suggestion would be that the marinara sauce needed more herbs, salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.

    Very disappointed in the quality of the food for the price. We were really looking forward to going thinking it would be a great dining experience but was not. Food was pricey and mediocre. Had to ask for refills on water. Had someone singing but it more of a distraction than enjoyable. Don't plan to return.

    Loved trying this place for Sunday brunch! We ate in the bar area. Service was perfect and I loved the crab cake and cinnamon roll. Minor things I want to mention is that the black coffee was watery and my lobster sauce was room temp. Maybe it was Bc of cold plating but the flavor was great! Our server Laura was hospitable and made great suggestions. I will definitely come back and I hope my review helps future service.

    I am from out of town and was underwhelmed by the quality, in particular the taste of the food. It was not unique, not satisfying and in my humble opinion overpriced for the taste of the food.

    Sorrento's used to be one of our favorite brunch places for almost a decade for selection, service, and ambience. However, the place has radically changed for the worse in the past six months. First, brunch supposedly isn't served anymore, only to be told there are limited off-menu options, and the taste and portions of those limited options are much worse and smaller than they used to be. And for the options they do have, there are significant upcharges for substituting their terrible fries, cooked in old oil, for salad or fruit. Second, service has been terrible. They served salad without dressing, fries and sandwiches without condiments, and the beer on tap was warm and tasted very skunky. We also had to repeatedly ask for missing items. Third, Sorrento's was routinely hopping at all hours, including brunch, but the past two times the place was very nearly empty. We counted eight employees just in the front dining area standing around doing nothing but talk to each other, yet they could hardly be bothered to check on us. Also, they played 80s hair band music so loud that it was hard to hear and talk to the person next to you. If 80s hair band music is your thing, great, but don't expect to have a conversation. We hoped the first time this happened was just an anomaly but the extremely poor experiences seem to be a trend. Sorrento's went from one of the best places in the High Country to one of the worst. We are sad to say we won't be going back.

    The restaurant was packed. Not surprised there. The food was good, a bit over priced- but I expected that. Considering we had a reservation for weeks, it would have nice to have been sat in the other rooms- We got a blast of cold air when the side door opened and we could see inside the mens room when the door opened

    Most of the food inedible. the best part of meal was the free garlic knots. We ordered stuffed mushrooms, so garlicky we could not eat. For dinner I had the eggplant rollatini the sauce was pure acid no spices just pure tomato puree maybe. My husband had the trout special it was so salty he scraped everything off the fish to eat. I never give bad reviews but we were both starving when we left. could have been an off night but I would never go back.

    Our server, Susan, greeted us shortly after we sat down. She was very nice. We placed our drink orders and an appetizer. Then Susan was nowhere to be found. Another staff member delivered our appetizer, and we still never received our drinks. She never even brought us waters. We finished the entire appetizer before she even came back to check on us (still not bringing us waters or our drinks). She wreaked of cigarettes and was chewing gum. She clearly went to take a smoke break after putting our drinks and app in. She cleared our plates then stated she had all the bar tenders looking for our bottle of champagne (lies). After 30 minutes and a finished app, we FINALLY received our drinks. We had to ask for bread and water. She took our order. My husband’s food was good. Mine was completely wrong and spicy. I ordered the broccoli and cavatelli. However instead of broccoli, I asked for tomatoes. It’s came out in a soup like state with the incorrect noodles and a pound of chili flakes. The menu did not list chili flakes as part of the meal. It was inedible. They remade it and it was okay, now this time had a pound of garlic. As we were finish up, we heard a server behind us telling a table about specials and giving waters. Turns out it was our waitress, who never even mentioned specials to us. Will not be going back!!!
