Sociale is a restaurant that offers a delightful dining experience. The setting is warm and intimate, making it feel separate from the city bustle. The service is consistently excellent, with the serving staff providing quiet efficiency and a welcoming atmosphere. The Italian-focused wine list is extensive and features many terrific options, although most bottles are above $100. The sommelier, Alonzo, helps guests select perfect wine pairings, adding a special touch to the meal.
The menu offers a variety of options, including vegetarian and vegan dishes. One standout dish is the mushroom bolognese with zucchini noodles, which is both vegan and gluten-free, yet hearty and satisfying. The restaurant also offers spring risotto, halibut, and tagliatelle bolognese, all praised for their quality. For starters, scallops on a bed of roasted corn are a favorite. Salads are kindly split in the kitchen at no extra charge, although those seeking more plant-based options might wish for more variety. The restaurant often features chef Julio greeting guests at their tables, adding a personal touch.
Recent reviews highlight the restaurant's excellent food and attentive service. Guests enjoyed the fried olives, which are a must-try, and appreciated the server’s effort to offer half portions of the gnocchi and pasta special with pork, allowing them to try both dishes. Others mentioned that Sociale gave them half portions of roasted duck pappardelle and bolognese tagliatelle so they could enjoy both, describing both as delicious. Desserts such as vanilla ice cream and delicious decafs beautifully finish the meal. Overall, Sociale is a charming and lovely restaurant, perfect for a cozy dinner and celebrating life's little moments.
