Sorrento Ristorante & Pizzeria

Had the Christmas special filetto at the server's suggestion, and I was not disappointed. It was a generous cut of meat covered with fresh market mushrooms. The gorgonzola sauce was perfectly seasoned and added so much flavor to the steak. All servings were sizeable and all the food ordered was super tasty. The only star deducted was for ambiance, on account that we were seated inside the restaurant but kept getting hit with the smell of smoke from people having a cigarette outside. To be fair the restaurant isn't to be held responsible for this, and I only mention this for those who may be sensitive to the smell. All in all, a great place to have a family meal!

We stumbled across this place after we were tired of walking from our hotel to find dinner. We had a large group and a lot of the restaurants in San Diego are tiny! This place had a lot of room and we were all able to sit together (6 plus a baby). The server was extremely nice and helpful! We all loved our food and drinks. We also enjoyed sitting near the kitchen and smelling all the food. We will definitely be back!

We had a great lunch here while on vacation. We were slow to be served at first, but then we got our bread and water and shortly after our server came over and we were able to order. We were given more bread and dipping sauce while waiting for our food. Our glasses were full the whole time, as we were given bottles to refill as needed. The food was absolutely delicious and had large proportions. The service was wonderful. They seemed short staffed, but they worked as a team to make sure everyone was taken care of. We highly recommend.

A fun way to experience Little Italy in San Diego. To walk up and down India St and see the vibrant neighbour, and to stop and be welcomed with such warmth and hospitality. This is exactly what Sorrento Ristorante did. The welcome from the Chef’s wife at the door and inviting us in really had such a warm charm. The food was great and portions were perfect!

My wife and I recently dined at Sorrento Ristorante and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The setting was perfect, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made us feel right at home. But it was the food that truly stole the show. I ordered the Penne Pollo e Funghi and my wife had the Ravioli Burrata, and both dishes were fabulous. My Penne Pollo e Funghi was a delightful combination of tender chicken, earthy mushrooms, and al dente penne pasta, all tossed in a rich and flavorful cream sauce. The dish was perfectly balanced and every bite was a true delight. The chicken was cooked to perfection, the mushrooms were tender and flavorful, and the cream sauce was rich and decadent without being too heavy. It was a pasta dish that truly hit all the right notes. My wife's Ravioli Burrata was equally impressive. The ravioli were stuffed with creamy burrata cheese and served in a luscious tomato sauce that had just the right amount of tanginess. The dish was beautifully executed and every element was perfectly cooked. The ravioli were tender and flavorful, and the sauce was just the right consistency to coat each bite of pasta. Overall, we would highly recommend Sorrento Ristorante to anyone looking for excellent Italian cuisine in a beautiful setting. The Penne Pollo e Funghi and Ravioli Burrata were both fabulous and a definite must-try. The service was also exceptional, with a friendly and knowledgeable staff that made us feel truly welcome. We can't wait to come back and try more of their menu offerings!
