Sotto is the best of the best. All the time. If there was only one restaurant in cincinnati and it was Sotto, it would probably be just fine. Though it would certainly be crowded. 😊
Hey hey! Navar (I believe) was a joy from start to finish. We were in for a team building dinner from The Breeze Wine Bar in Lexington/Louisville and could not have been more pleased. The food was outstanding, the service was spot on, the ambiance was perfect, and the entire experience was what hospitality should always strive to be. We will def return and send all we can your way. Cheers!
Knowledgeable staff, good service, and excellent food. Beautiful, romantic space.
This is “last meal on death row” level cuisine. No joke. Brandon and everyone who stopped at our table were so knowledgeable and seemed to be in their element.
Forget what you know about charcuterie boards. They all wish they were the charcuterie board at Sotto.
This place never disappoints....and neither do the ricotta donuts.
It is my favorite restaurant. Everyone in my family chooses Sotto to celebrate any and all life milestones. I love that you place your complete order first and the staff pace bringing it so that everyone can share. Choose things that you would not normally order..... Bryan was our waiter and his recommendations were spot on for food, wine, cocktails and dessert.
So good to be back at Sotto!

Hillary took such good care of my big family. thank you Sotto for a wonderful night out, amazing food & beautiful ambiance!! my favorite restaurant in Cincinnati!
Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and was a big help in our placing our order. The food was out-of-this world delicious. We will definitely return.
Always a great experience!
Sotto is an all time favorite spot for me and it never disappoints. Service has gone above and beyond each time I visit.
Server, Rachel, was outstanding. Made for a memorable night.
One of the best meals we’ve ever had in the States. The salads were wonderful. The cacio e pepe was just as good, if not better, than we had in Rome. The Florentine Bistecca was fabulous and took us right back to Florence. When you can’t go to Italy because of a pandemic, this place is the next best thing! It felt very safe and the staff was very warm and welcoming.
What a great atmosphere! Perfect for a date night and the food is splendid. Definitely recommend the donuts as a dessert!
Fantastic dining experience.
Patrick and his staff were amazing. Thank you for the great hospitality!
Sotto is always just a top notch experience. Servers are incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, the food is amazing, the ambiance is lovely and unique. We always enjoy our trips to Sotto and recommend it regularly to friends, family, and out of town visitors.
Brian, thank you for taking the time to understand what we were looking for as diners and people.
This has been the most exquisitely prepared and presented food I have ever experienced.
Truly, thank you Sotto for a dining experience that stands alone in my repertoire.
Sotto was SO incredible. From the delicious pasta, to the awesome environment, I will definitely be going back!
One of the best places in Cincinnati for Italian food. If there is one restaurant you have to try in Cincinnati, it is definitely Sotto. Their menu is selective and food is absolutely tasty and fresh. Their desserts are unique and the wine list and bar selection complements the food very well. Staff is knowledgeable and pays excellent attention to their patrons. Though the food is expensive, the location, service, and quality definitely justify the price.
This was my first time going to Sotto and I decided to take my girlfriend there on date night. Our server, Noah, was amazing. He was extremely professional and walked is through the menu, since most of it was in Italian. He, and the rest of the staff made our experience with them an amazing venture. I will most definitely be here again and HIGHLY recommend others to dine there as well.
Very unique place. We Enjoyed the experience from the beginning to end.
Best food I’ve ever had in my life. Perfect experience.
We LOVE going to Sotto! This was a great date night to celebrate our engagement and setting a date for our wedding! The food was incredible as always and the service was even better. I can’t wait until we can go again
Food is fantastic. Among my favorite restaurants. Generally, service is equal to the food. On my last visit, service was just slightly better than average, however. We were seated right next to the wait staff station and bar service. For a $75+ per person dining experience, I don't want waiters running tabs and picking up drinks right next to my table. They should just remove this table. And while our waiter was professional, our meal felt rushed. He asked for our order twice quite quickly, the food was on the table surprisingly fast and we were paying our bill in less than 45 minutes...and that was with us trying to slow it down. Again, not our typical experience but this time it just felt they were trying to turn the table.
We always get great service and food. Always a pleasure.
My absolute favorite restaurant in Cincinnati. They knock it out of the park, every time I am here. Hillary has waited on us the last few times, and she does a great job.
Michael was our server and he was awesome! From the drink recommendations, attention level and remembering it was my birthday! I love this restaurant already, but he made it world class. Keep on being awesome Michael!
Quickly becoming a favorite! Food is exceptional!
