Although we noted it was our anniversary we were seated at a very small booth type table in the corner facing the wall right next to another couple. It was like we were sitting at the table with them. I could literally touch their plates. There were several other seat and four seat tables open. Many other couples were sitting at these tables after us. The lasagna taste was ok but it was served cold.

Hi John, thank you very much for your review. I am terribly sorry we failed to deliver proper service to you! It is correct, your reservation had a note, and we should have known better. I am asking you to send me your contact info at my EMail dsavin at westinwoodlands . com to discuss further, please. Dragan, GM

This place was casual but upscale. All the food is handmade and it tastes that way too. Hubby had the lasagna and the portion was very large. I had the gnocchi and it was delicious. We would come back.and try other.offerings.

We had a wonderful experience at Sorriso, food totally recommended, excellent ambience! The service was slow, however, perhaps you can improve this in the future.

Outstanding experience! First time to visit because we loved one of the pizza options - artichoke & mushroom. It was the best we've had in a long time. It's worth the visit! Waiter (Marco) also suggested a fantastic wine to pair with it. We will definitely make this a go to place for date night.

First time at Sorriso, nice restaurant and great service from Marco. Starters were tasty and beautifully presented. The charred octopus was definitely a winner. With the bottle of red wine, the special of the month, came a very nice peperoni pizza that we shared among the six of us. The main courses were disappointing though. Marco told us that the pasta is freshly made in house, so hopes were high for some nice and fresh al dente papardelle. All four pastas (2 specials of the day) were very overcooked and bland unfortunately. It was a lot of pasta and you had to look for the scallop (1) and shrimp (4). Our friends who had the risotto said that it was nice. So next time we go to a concert at the Woodlands, we might go back and stick to starters and pizza that comes with the wine special of the month ;-) Marco was really great and gave us all the time we needed and didn't rush at all, which was really nice.
Sorriso Italian KitchenResponded on May 10, 2025
Hi Kurt, thank you very much for your review of Sorriso visit. We do take all comments very seriously and I will share your regarding Main courses experience with our Executive Chef in order to rectify all shortcomings in our product or with service. I do hope you will visit us again and do believe that some failures will not happen again. Dragan, GM

The service and food were amazing. John took great care of us and made excellent suggestions. We had the focaccia bread, wood-fire cheese pizza, Cesar salad, fresh pasta with meatballs and black spaghetti. Highly recommend. This is our favorite dinner spot for special occasions in The Woodlands when we stay at the Westin. The pizza crust is the best!
Sorriso Italian KitchenResponded on May 10, 2025
Thank you, Kristina for your comments! I will inform our Exec Chef on all your thoughts regarding food quality. Hope to see you soon again at Sorriso! Dragan, GM
