First time here. Has been on our list for a while. Heard good things about it and we were not disappointed. Street parking can be an issue, but we found a spot a block away. We had made reservations and got seated right away. Friendly host and waitstaff. Our waiter Paul did a great job with explaining the menu and shared his recommendations. The food was very good. We ordered the artichoke appetizer, chicken parmigiana, and the special lamb shank. The food and drinks took the right amount of time to get to us (not to fast or slow). Very good preparation and flavor. The sauce on the braised Lamb Shank was extremely good. Chicken Parmigiana was one of the best we have had. My only suggestions; the artichoke came with four pieces of bread. A couple of extra would have been nice (there was a lot of artichoke). And both entrees temperature could have been hotter. We will definitely put this on the "dine again" list. :)

Great atmosphere and wonderful food. Had the swordfish livornese, gnocchi genovese, wood roasted beets and canoli. Drinks were on point. I would just come back for the cocktails alone.

So glad we found this place. We were seated right away and our server was super. Our drinks were delicious (traditional Old Fashioneds - not Wisconsin ones). Food was delicious and plentiful. A great experience all around and a good value too. Highly recommend - check it out for yourself.

This is an interesting place, it is in an old large two story home, down stairs is a restaurant and there are apartments upstairs. There is also seating out front on the lawn and in a tent. The food was very good with some different Italian things on the menu. Everything was tasty.

Me and some coworkers went as a group of eight to Sorella for a holiday dinner, and we were all impressed by our food and the great atmosphere. Food was reasonably priced, especially for the premium quality, and our service was good. It's in a very cool area of Bay View, and the eight of us all said we'd go back again.

The rigatoni ala vodka was fantastic. The chicken picatta meatballs were quite good. The pizza with the gianciale was a flop even though it had nice optics. I bet pancetta would work better than the soggy guanciale. Definitely too many scallions. Maybe we ordered the wrong pizza because the char crust was decent but the overall flavor was just meh. It's too bad that I couldn't overlook this.

My husband and I went here for our first time over the weekend. We made a reservation, but we arrived early and were seated right away. All the items we had here were remarkable. We split the Arancini, Green Beans and Broccolini pizza. It was all delicious! Definitely recommend Sorella and will eat here again when we are in Milwaukee

Casual dining in an open setting. Ah, feels good. Nice place for families and conversations. Not a huge menu, but nice work on the food and service was very friendly. I had gnocchi veal dish with peas. Tender! My wife had Chicken Parmigiano and my son had the Pork Chop special. Pizzas also looked good.

Great Italian restaurant. Smaller menu but everything tried was great. Known for pizza and pasta dishes, Cavatelli with Monday sauce pictured and was excellent. Would go again.

We thoroughly enjoyed Sorella. The waitress was very kind and suggested drinks and menu items. The food was delicious! The fig & arugula pizza is something I’ve never had before but it all worked together really nicely. I do recommend getting a protein with your pasta, I didn’t and I felt as though it was missing something. I tried the chicken and it was crispy and delicious! The cannoli was delicious - I recommend sharing between 2 people. The only unfortunate part about our experience is that our reservation put us outside in the tent and there was a gap in the tent walls right next to us. Our jackets were on the whole time and our legs felt cold throughout dinner.
