Italian
Sorrento’s Ristorante at Tsillan Cellar’s owner, Dr. Bob Jankelson, admits that the food of Italy captured him before he developed his interest in wine. Dozens of teaching trips to Italy instilled an appreciation of Italian cuisine paired with food friendly wine shared with friends and family. The same meticulous attention to detail evident in Tsillan Cellars stunning Italian architecture and grounds, transfers to a kitchen that brings world class dining to the shores of Lake Chelan. In winter, the inviting Italian fireplace and panoramic views of Lake Chelan and snow clad mountains blend with award winning food and wine to leave indelible memories. Outstanding ambiance, food, wine and service--- four reasons Sorrento’s Ristorante at Tsillan Cellars was named OpenTable Top 100 Scenic Restaurants in America in 2014. We were named WA State Winery of the Year 2020 by Wine Press Northwest! We look forward to your visit.

    From the host, waitress and all the way down to the busboys service was was impeccable. The food outstanding and you can’t bear the ambiance. One thing I commented on to my wife was, even as the dining room filled up you could easily converse. Sorentos is truly an outstanding restaurant. Great wines also!

    This is a wonderful place to eat. Food is great, service was great. The view is beautiful. This is our third time there and I know my daughter and family love it there too. The Rose wine is so good. The new steak ( New York steak) was so tender and the Risotto is so good too. Everything we’ve had has been great.

    The Italian winery ambiance was exemplary! Main entree, rack of lamb, VERY generous portion ... took one rack home with me. Your wine bottle prices of course compatible with being on location.

    The resturant was beautiful. It sits on a hill facing Lake Chlan. Walls open to allow the outside in. We were seated on the garden side, which was lighted and had a Coi fish pond, but next time I will ask to sit on the lake side. Food was incredible wine as delicious, and the server was friendly and accommodating.

    My wife and I split the tenderloin, it was cooked perfectly (medium rare) with a tasty gorgonzola sauce. Served with plenty of brocolini and some well seasoned baked red potatoes. Accompanied with roasted mushrooms. All very delicious, and washed down with an excellent cabernet sauvignon (me) and a great sangiovese (wife). Gorgeous view, and a local singer with a great voice doing opera and Spanish ballads gave great ambiance

    After I said that the food was good, the service was good, the ambiance was good and the value was good there isyto much to add other than changing the word “good” to “great” is about the only thing I could do. I hope that I have met my 50 characters limit okay. Oh and did I tell you that we had a great time?
