Simply not a 5 star spot - you can tell that the second the ‘chef’/waiter aerates your glass of wine before handing it to you, or maybe when you see the QR sticker (or them) asking you to give a 5-star rating. Food and wine are not great.

Exceptional selection of wines by the glass from Trentino Alto Adige. The menu focuses on quality rather than of quantity of choices. The burrata was fresh and rich, with an original and delicious interpretation of caprese. The tender octopus, with potatoes and peas in two ways sends your senses to Italy in first class.

The male host was extremely rude I would never go back, this place is fussy and overpacked also. I had a reservation and he sat me at a corner window bar seat (if you could even call it a bar) so tightly seated next to someone there wasn’t even room to order a food dish. I saw three small tables open and asked if I could move to one and he gave me so much attitude saying “well you’re one person so no”. Meanwhile I was looking to have several glasses of wine and food like any paying couple. I left immediately it was very insulting and the wrong way to handle the situation of him.
If you have reservations maybe you should specify bar seating. Also half your bar seats are not even near the bar and have zero space.

Sorso was an excellent experience from start to finish. The food was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. What really elevated the evening was the wine pairing — each selection complemented the menu perfectly and enhanced the overall dining experience. You can tell real care goes into both the kitchen and the wine program. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a well-rounded and memorable meal.
I am so impressed with the food here! You can tell they use high-end, fresh ingredients for everything. It’s sophisticated comfort food at its best. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making the whole experience feel special.
