Review Sorellina - Boston

I came here on a whim. There was room at the bar for me for dinner. Fantastic waitstaff at the bar! I loved the butter squash ravioli. It had a lot of flavor. It was amazing! I also had the octopus appetizer too. It had a lot of flavor and some spice to it too. The wines are good too. I will return!

Beautiful ambiance. The menu offered great variety. I enjoyed the pasta the most, but it wasn’t the best I’ve had. The fish was very average.

Classic Italian fine dining restaurant that is decent for celebrating special occasions. Stepping into Sorellina to celebrate a friend's birthday, we were disappointed by our initial reception. We found ourselves seated right by the kitchen, at a table with the heaviest foot traffic. This was a recurring experience I have noticed across CHG’s restaurants, including Ostra and Mistral, where we’ve found non-Caucasian patrons often relegated to less desirable spots. Despite Sorellina’s classy ambiance, the hectic surroundings made it challenging to focus on the meal during the first hour. The service, however, improved as the evening unfolded, making up for the rocky start. From the appetizers, the Carpaccio emerged as a highlight. The subtle sweetness of the Vidalia onion jam, zesty lemon, grated Parmigiano, and crunchy croutons created a pleasing balance in flavors and contrasting textures that was undeniably satisfying. While the Bronzino crudo and Foie gras were enjoyable, they lacked the wow-factor we expected. Our pasta exploration yielded two clear winners: the Gnocchi and the Ravioli. Both dishes exhibited impeccable textures. The gnocchi, with its enjoyable chewiness, and the perfectly textured ravioli, easily climbed to the top of our favorites list. However, the main courses told a different story. Only the Ribeye managed to capture our interest. Seated on a bed of Vin Cotto sauce, the steak was a succulent spectacle of tenderness and flavor, superbly complemented by the fresh heirloom tomatoes and punchy gorgonzola picante. Regrettably, the Chicken and Veal Milanese fell short of our expectations. Overall, our experience at Sorellina was a mixed bag - an acceptable choice for special occasions with a handful of stellar dishes, but balanced by its fair share of disappointments. Given the abundance of exceptional Italian restaurants in Boston, I'm uncertain if a return visit to Sorellina is in the cards.

Friendly service, nice selections of drinks, food was excellent. My favorite part was the ambiance and acoustics of the place. It’s not overly loud and you can have actual conversations with your friends.

Date night delights: Burrata, Malfadine, Salmon, Filet, Molten Lava Cake, Tiramisu served thoughtfully by Angelica in a sexy dimly-lit dining room. Highly recommend this gem.

Amazing as always! Started with the tuna tartare and the branzino crudo, and couldn’t help ordering the lobster gnocchi - too good to pass up! The halibut entree was also lovely.

Beautiful ambient with a touch of luxury. High ceilings and lovely decoration. The food was amazing. Everything we ordered, consumed with atmost delight. We had fish, meat and pasta with some antipasti. All were perfectly prepared and delicious. The staff polite and willing. The check as expected.

Everything about our dining experience at Sorellina was phenomenal! The food was amazing and customer service was top notch! Our server, “Uncle” Mark was kind, patient, and an all around great human being! We had lots of questions about the entrees and he made some really great suggestions. You will throughly enjoy your time there!

It was a fancy restaurant so they require a little bit formal attire rather than just casual look. Most dishes are very expensive but really worth them. I especially loved ribeye and gnocchi and will revisit here for them for sure. Recommend here for celebrating or dating ♥️♥️

Omg sorellina! The butter squash ravioli was an absolute killer. The flavor was so rich it was mind blowing. The lobster gnocchi was great too but the ravioli was just insane. And the foie gras, it’s a MUST order. It doesn’t taste like the conventional foie gras, but it’s very creamy, silky, smooth and with the crispy bread( bread taste insane) I would never forget the flavor. Visited this place twice in a month, both times were very satisfying. Great selection of wine too.
