About SORSO

SORSO is a wonderful new addition to the East Bay in Orinda, a small and sleepy town that seems to have needed just this kind of shot in the arm. The place is warm, inviting, and vibrant, and was mostly full when visited, with good vibes and a happy clientele. Young and old alike enjoy the uplifting and happy ambience. The space used to be a Starbucks back in the day, and this is a much better use of the space. Staff are welcoming, kind, and so fun, and the service is exemplary. The owner came by and introduced himself and warmly thanked guests for their patronage. Cocktails are on point, including the Apple Bottom cocktail, which is delicious, well-balanced, and not too sweet, beautifully presented with a large ice cube and a lemon garnish held to the glass with a mini clothes pin. The Pistachio cocktail is fantastic. There is a creative cocktail list and an extensive wine list. The food is delicious, with small plates to share or to not share, including deviled eggs, kushii oysters, king prawns, short ribs, beef tartare, the tuna, seafood mix, and a chocolate mousse dessert. There are also oysters and other raw bar/seafood selections, small plates, and pizzas. Bar seating, patio seating, and comfortable chairs are available. SORSO is highly recommended and worth visiting specifically.
