Reviews Sorrento Pizzeria & Restaurant

Sorrento's has the best pizza in Connecticut in my opinion. their food is always fresh and the customer services is excellent. so if you're looking for a best place for delicious pizza and delicious food? look no further Sorrento is the place to be at.

It had been a long day at work with no time to stop and grab a bite to eat. I finally finished my coffee from this morning around 3 this afternoon and I was starved. I was craving Italian, and being from out of town, I rely on google. I googled Italian restaurants in Stamford Connecticut and at number 1 with 4.7 out of 5 stars sat Sorrento Pizza & Restaurant. Sorrento’s is a locally owned and operated restaurant since 1989. The restaurant was cozy and inviting. The server was very attentive and friendly which is always a good sign. I needed a minute to look over the menu and plan out my strategy to fill my belly. I ordered the Fried Mozzarella in Carozza. For those who are not familiar with this dish, it’s essentially a Italian grilled cheese packed full of fresh mozzarella cooked crisp and smothered in a marinara. My second course was the Gorgonzola salad with a homemade vinaigrette. It was delicious and they were not greedy with the Gorgonzola which is one of my favorite Bleu’s. Then, for my entree, I ordered the Veal Marsala with a side of, or should I say a hefty portion of linguine with Alfredo!!! The portion sizes were perfect and for those who know me, this means they were large! I was later joined by the Chef / Owner, Tony Uva, and we shared stories and talked about a multitude of different things. It seemed that Chef Tony knew everyone that walked in by name which always is a plus. Chef Tony invited me back to the kitchen to make my own pie, but after eating my meal, I would have probably fallen asleep mid throw into the air. I did tell him on my next trip to Connecticut I will take him up on his offer and we will video it so everyone can get a good laugh. I know Italian but the tossing of the dough is not one of my stronger suits. Over all, the experience was one to remember. From the excellent service, the authentic Italian cuisine, and causal conversation with Chef Tony, Sorrento’s Pizza and Restaurant is a must see next time your in Stamford Connecticut. Swing by and check it out at 879 High Ridge Road Stamford, Connecticut 06905.

We’ve passed this restaurant time after time after time and never thought about ordering pizza from there. We LOVE pizza and are always on the lookout for great pizza spots. This particular day we wanted pizza but didn’t want to get it from any of our familiar spots, so we looked at Google Reviews to see what were the highest rated pizza restaurants in Stamford. We saw that Sorrento’s had a good rating and favorable comments. We decided to go for it and give it a try. We knew we wanted to get pepperoni but THEN we saw their Mike’s Hot Honey Pepperoni pizza and said, we have to try that. We ended up ordering a large Mike’s hot honey pepperoni pizza and fried calamari. One issue we had is that their menu on the website doesn’t have prices. I don’t know if that is a new thing now, but I see a lot of restaurants that don’t post their prices anymore. As a customer, I love to know exactly how much I’m going to be paying for my order. I ordered the pizza first and asked the price. They told me $22. Then I ordered the calamari. I asked for the total and they told me $42 dollars. I almost choked!!! Lol!! Dang!!! How much is calamari? When did an order of calamari become almost $20 (plus tax). Apparently, fried calamari is going for that much. We wanted calamari, so we went through with the order. They were pleasant at the restaurant and said they didn’t have any menus left. We brought our order home. Taking the calamari out of the bag, I was a little disappointed that they didn’t make a vent in the container. I also feel like a little more calamari could have been added. It felt a bit skimpy. After paying that much, I wanted more, and crunchy calamari. They were soggy. I crisped them up for 4 minutes in the air fryer. As for the taste, they were, good. I love that the coating is light, but they are very lightly seasoned. I will tell you what was amazing though. Their marinara sauce is absolutely delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed dipping the calamari into the marinara. They worked extremely well together. As for the pizza, it was delicious!!! It looked smaller than a normal large pizza but it was very tasty. Sauce on pizza is my thing. I feel sauce can make or break a pizza. This restaurant can make some sauce. The taste of honey is subtle but it is present. I couldn’t really taste the heat. We love hot oil pizza, so we were looking forward to tasting the hot oil flavor. We couldn’t taste it, but that being said, we were still happy with the flavor. Would we order from Sorrento’s again? Absolutely!!! Would we order the Mike’s Hot Honey Pizza again? I don’t think so. I don’t think I need the honey flavor with the flavor of pepperoni. We will definitely try their straight pepperoni pizza. I know it’s going to be great. If you’re going to order calamari, ask them to make a hole in the cover of the container. Hope this was helpful.

I’ve been going to this delicious restaurant since it opened over 20 years ago ! The food is over the moon because it’s always fresh ! The owners like my family and I miss them not being open because I used to go with my friends and family ! You won’t be disappointed!

Very surprised at how good the cheese pizza was. I ordered one just to get a taste of the quality and I was astonished at how good it tasted. Will order from here again!

Stumbled on this gem. Margarita pizza tastes like the ones they make in Sorrento ITALY. Bolognese also excellent. Fresh crispy Italian bread rolls. This is the real deal.
