We have all been excited about Sorso in the neighborhood. It is a beautiful space, welcoming and just what was needed. the wine and food is excellent. However, it becomes harder and harder to have a conversation which is what the intimacy of the space promises and why we came into Sorso. When I first went to Sorso there was moderately toned classical music. It was a great relief from the loud restaurants nearby and there was generally a tone of delight at all the tables. I was very disappointed to have spent a great deal of money to not be able to hear a friend who was leaving on a long journey.

Sorso is a wonderful place, an “adult” restaurant that doesn’t cater to the NYU hordes — imagine that, just like the old days when college kids didn’t swamp the neighborhood. Carefully prepared delicious food and a compact, fairly priced wine list that offers good variety both by the glass and the bottle. Support this place, you will be happy you did.

The food was delicious - ample appetizer portions, well-seasoned salads, all tastefully-presented. Unfortunately the service was so slow and inattentive that I'm not sure we will return any time soon.

Delicious food in a charming ambience. Party of five and we all enjoyed sharing plates. Highlight is tiramisu. Chef explained it is his grandmother's recipe. Also reccomend mocktini and the complimentary bread is perfection.

The food was outstanding. Service was friendly and helpful. It’s a new-ish restaurant so still working out some kinks (eg, no mint for cocktails, air conditioning not working) but all minor and easily solved. Highly recommend it.

What a terrific addition to the neighborhood. Elegantly but understated decor with a very friendly, efficient and attentive staff. Menu is heavily Italian but has a great mixture of seafood and sushi dishes as well. Most plates are small, light and fresh. We had the charcuterie board first with meats and cheese. Every ingredient was incredible. Most places slap something like that together but this was a highlight. This was followed by a great salad and a salmon ceviche with roe and a creamy sauce that was top notch. We finished off with the roast beef main dish and it was so simple yet so delicious (my favorite of the night). The place is small but well laid out so it never feels too close. Wine list is well stocked. Prices are more than fair for the top quality and great service. I will definitely make this a go to place on University.

This place is a gem, not yet discovered and I wish it would stay that way but the chef is so good and creative that I want them to do very well and succeed at the risk of losing the ability of getting in whenever I want. Everything about it is just lovely.

This is a welcome new place to the Greenwich village neighborhood. Its size feels intimate and one can relax for aperitif without getting overwhelmed. But you can also have a serious dinner, since their menu and specials are fantastic in choice and in quality. Same for their wine menu. A must to discover.
