IrmaZandl ZandlSlantAugust 8, 2013Delicious small dishes to share - esp recommend the quinoa salad and the pastas. And make sure you try the desserts - yummy! A bit pricey however - expect to pay $100 per person with tax/tip.
Village VoiceNovember 26, 2012Sleek, candlelit wine bar featuring excellent an Italian wine list, is one of the city's most romantic and underrated spots. Winner of Village Voice Best of NYC Critic's choice for best wine bar!
Elyse EstradaAugust 16, 2012The honey pot and Ron burgundy are amazing to start. Actually you could skip dessert and just lick the caramel rim of the honey pot. You'll look a little weird but you might make some friends.- Elyse EstradaAugust 16, 2012Eat this, FTW: broccoli, pici pasta, gnocchi, sweetbreads, duck pate, scallops, spare ribs, donut dessert, salted caramel chocolate gelato, strawberry thing dessert & ask for wine pairings w/all
The New York Daily NewsSeptember 24, 2013At Sorella, a chic Italian small-plates restaurant on the lower East Side, co-owner and beverage director Sarah Krathen adds a spice of life to her white whisky-based cider cocktail ($13). Read more
Travel + LeisureJune 4, 2013Pastas star at this cozy Piedmontese spot—we love the lamb ragu. The two-course prix fixe dinner menu, available Tuesday through Saturday, is a good deal.
Kmart FashionDecember 2, 2011Tucked away in the LES. This place has it all. Atmosphere, food & service that will impress even your toughest food critic. Musts: Broccoli tempura, pork rillettes, & short rib pasta.
Stefanie DAugust 5, 2010gnocchi are unreal. bombolini are a great choice for dessert. music ties it all together, 1 amazing song after another. must warn you, open kitchen makes this place so warm. avoid during heat waves.
A SOctober 10, 2013Eat here! Food is incredible, service is perfect, soundtrack is solid, and there's a picture of two french bulldogs cuddling in the bathroom.
Sajid MehmoodSeptember 16, 2013Don't miss the broccoli fritto. Might not be the healthiest preparation of broccoli but it's definitely one of the most delicious.
Louise McCreadyApril 30, 2010Loved beef agnolotti, lamb ragu tajarin, ramps risotto, spinach side & burrata special. For dessert: order bambaloni & pb gelato. To drink: gin cocktail or dolcetti di dogliani 2008 red wine.
Aileen TseOctober 5, 2013the pastas are great and the veal tongue bruschetta were to die for. a bit overpriced though given the pasta portion size
Porig SalbaJuly 4, 2012Really enjoyed it. Small plates are the way to go. Fried broccoli dish and chicken liver mouse are excellent. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Brian ParkMarch 13, 2014Fried broccoli are tasty. I enjoyed them alot. Great restaurant overall, casual atmosphere.
If you know what's good for you, you'll order every single dish on the menu. Seriously. Every single dish. Bring friends!
