Was an excellent moderate priced Italian restraunt. A little had to find as it is downstairs from the walnut street bridge on 24th street. We walked there from University of Pennsylvania. Got a papperdele, with ragu and the ragu was great very meaty. Also ordered the salad and was stuffed. It is a byob. I would definitely look for it as a nice quiet place to eat. ( As a side note apparently sotto means under in Italian which makes sense for its location.)

Best BYOB Italian in the city! Private, cozy neighborhood vibe. Beautiful cork designs cover the walls. The staff is spectacular, menu is elegant, classic and simply delicious! Bellissimo!
Small and so casual, but tight, especially when people are waiting to eat. We had the carpaccio appetizer, which was nice and lemony with shallots and capers, and the buffalo mozzarella with excellent roasted zucchini. The ravioli with bolognese sauce was really good, as was the chocolate mousse. Excellent staff. Very enjoyable meal. Make reservations. Cash only.
Sotto is amazing!! We moved to Philly from CT and this is our favorite spot!! Daniel is absolutely incredible, he works so hard and always gives us an elaborate description of the many specials. The food is always delicious and delivered so quickly. Tonight the restaurant was packed and only Daniel and Max were working and the service was impeccable. These two guys were hustling and I honestly don’t understand how they still deliver such amazing service with just two servers. This speaks volumes of Daniel and Max and their customer service skills. Also the food is AMAZING, so fresh and delicious. I really couldn’t recommend this spot more. Thank you Sotto!!
i ordered from grubhub and it was nothing short of fabulous!!!!! without question the best octopus i have ever had. the penne with blush sauce same. i can't wait to order from the restaurant again. actually sorry i didn't order dessert especially if the mains were outstanding as they were. i won't make that mistake again. Thank you chef for the best octopus i have ever had.................
This small BYOB restaurant was a great find. The menu has a variety of Italian dishes, and there were a few specials to choose from. The food was fresh and delicious. I had linguine with shrimp and a white wine sauce, and my co-worker had ravioli with meat sauce. Both were outstanding and portions were just right. Service was great, too. This was well worth the walk!
I don't like when places close kitchen before indicated time to close store, but I guess that it is a City / MOM & POP thing I must be more liberal about. I ordered seafood mix that came with pasta and blush sauce for $19. Would like to see more colors in my meal. Maybe a complimentary small salad or a few roasted green beans on top to color things up,but overall not bad at all.
Had the bowtie pasta with with vodka sauce and prosciutto. Excellent! Also had the house salad. Very good!
A lovely little BYOB place almost tucked away under the bridge. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. The food was very good, we quite enjoyed the three meals we got. Of the two desserts we split, the Hazelnut/chocolate ice cream was excellent, but we thought the Lemon tart could have been tarter.
