The food was ridiculously delicious and fresh. We did 4 small plates and it was perfect for 2 people. Filet mignon, grilled mushrooms, tziki and the cottage pie were all out of this world. The apple and icecream for dessert hit the spot. Staff was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. An excellent spot and one of the best meals I’ve had in years. Cannot recommend strongly enough!

We came to Sotto Sopra for a birthday celebration. So very glad we did. Everything was perfect. The service was attentive and caring. Everyone made us feel special and welcomed. The food was simply delicious. The meal started with a wonderful Burrata Capreses. For our main course, I had a fantastic diabolo pasta while the birthday girl had veal. Dessert was special with dark chocolate mousse. I recommend it all. So glad we came for dinner and we look forward to our return soon.
