"My wife and I visited Sorrento this weekend for the first time to celebrate a wedding anniversary. The food was absolutely incredible. I had the Salmon with lump crab meat and lobster risotto and my wife the Filet Mignon with Lobster Tail and Gnocchi. It just doesn't get much better than this!"

"Wonderful food and ambience, perfect for my Partners' Birthday. The general manager recommended courses for us to try. The appetizer of Butternut Squash Ravioli was about the best I have had recently. I also had a very rare Ahi Tuna, which was prepared perfectly. I did not think the salad stood out as much as these two, but the others in our party liked it. Overall the piano music provided a wonderful backdrop for a very enjoyable evening."

"I have been dinning at Sorrento’s for many years now. I have never been disappointed. The service is impeccable; the décor is classy, sophisticated. The piano players are fantastic and make the ambiance romantic and subtle but with a splash of spice. But the best of Sorrento’s is the food. Every single dish is prepared with perfection. The portions are the right size, the flavor is divine and the presentation of every dish seems like a small piece of art. The specials are always a wonderful choice. My favorites: Burrata Di Bufala with Baby Heriloom Tomatoes; Chilean Sea Bass and the triple chocolate cake…mmmmm……Not to forget, Trey, the manager is absolutely marvelous!"

"This is about the 6th visit to Sorrento's Italian Restorante for dinner and every time they consistently deliver superior food, exceptional service (Sergio is awesome) and a relaxing environment. Family dropped in unexpectedly from out of town and immediately thought to take them to Sorrento's for great conversation, great food and NO dishes to clean up! This night we enjoyed the halibut, salmon and ahi tuna. All three dishes were cooked to perfection, well presented and, delivered timely - even though it was prime time on a Saturday night. Just love this place."

"We have had the privilege to visit Italy on a couple occasions and then set out to find a place in Houston that could take us back in spirit again and again. After trying several places, we have settled onto Sorrento. For starters: must haves are the Burrata Mozzarella when on special (otherwise the Caprese is fantastic) and the Wild Mushroom Risotto (made tableside). Everything is a right choice for the entree, for fish I always go with the Sea Bass, my wife the Salmon - - both perfecto!. I often go with one of the Veal or Lamb options. All exceptional. Great ambiance, very attentive service. Plan on a cordial of Lemoncello to put a wrapper on a great dining experience."

"Excellent service and food. Our special occassion for my wife's birthday was handled flawlessly without any input on our part other than noting it on my online open table reservation. Much better service and/or food for a special occassion than several other five star restaurants we have been to recently for such occasions. We will be back again soon."

"I had been to this restaurant years ago, and since I was back in Houston I decided to go back. I am so glad I did! The decor is charming, the service was excellent and every dish we had was delicious! I had a short rib special that was perfectly braised and tender, my Dad's osso buco was rich and delicious, and my stepmom's fish was fresh and beautifully grilled."

"Our first time at Sorrento's (not sure how we've missed it being in Houston 25 years). Found it via OpenTable's Romantic Restaurant list and took my wife for her birthday. She loved it...great atmosphere, great staff, great food. We've been missing a place like this since our favorite Pino's restaurant closed some years ago. Live piano music was also very nice! We'll be back."

"The restaurant was unusually noisy and loud. On previous visits, I remembered that it had seemed pleasantly subdued and quiet.. There was considerable moving of tables and chairs near my table. We (a table of 4) did have a reservation, but had to wait for our table.
In regards to this, the wait staff and manager did apologize with sincerity. However, there was no offer of complimentary dishes/beverage.

"I had been to Sorrento for lunch and the food and service was impeccable! What a different experience for dinner! Our reservation was for 7:30 p.m. and we did not get seated until almost 9:00. Our orders were placed quickly; the salads came fairly soon. Then, we waited and waited and waited, finally asking our waiter where our entrees were (the restaurant was almost empty by this time). He came back from the kitchen and said, "The chef will start your dinners immediately." Now, we had been there almost 3 hours by this time. Obviously, we are not "known" to the owner or the maitre 'd, but if this is how most "unknowns" are treated, I would have to say: Do not go to this restaurant! Very, very disappointing evening!"

"This was a romantic meeting with a second date. I had flowers sent beforehand. I can not say enough good about this resturant. When we arrived, it was like we were expected with anticipation. Our table was as requested, very romantic and the flowers were on the table. The servers were outstanding. They were there when needed but did not hover. The food was to die for. The appitiser was delicious and unique. My veal chop was the best I have ever had. Fork tender but cooked medium as I asked. The desert was on the house because we were celebrating my birthday and it was excellent. The live piano in the background rounded out one of the finest meals I have ever had. The evening as a whole will stand out in my memory for a long time."

"Late to our reservation due to weather but they accomodated us right away. The service was excellent even though it was a packed night. The food and wine was great. Highly recommend for date night or dinner with friends."

"Prompt and personal service from a pleasant waiter, excellent food imaginatively prepared, and sufficient range of wines by the glass. We had the four course tasting menu and they kindly split the main courses into two plates, so that in effect we had a five course menu. A lot to eat."

"Sorrento is fabulous in decor, service and most importantly in food. I wanted everything on the menu. They recently refurbished and to my dismay and our tables the gentle piano playing and the relaxation has been gratly diminished by the addition of extra tables-vastly making the quitet refined atmosphere a little less enjoyable--We will go again but thenoise level was either a rowdy crod or crowded tables-each of which was filled--we will try a week night but just beware of the racket on Saturday. Still one of the best places to eat in town."

"Last night while working in Houston. I took a ride out this location to have dinner. The menu was ohhh so tantalizing! While I wanted the Osso Bucco not knowing when I would get back I decided on the Chef's Tasting Menu...
First: Hand Crafted Braised Veal Osso Buco Ravioli
Second: Baby Heirloom Tomatoes, Burrata Di Bufala and Oliva Di Ombria
Third: Medium Rare Filet Mignon & Seared Foie Gras with Green Peppercorn-Cognac Sauce Fourth: Orange Confit Preserve Panna Cotta with Fresh Vanilla Bean and Raspberry Sauce
This meal was fantastic and I could not put a dent in all. Sergio and Luis were great attendants. Trey the manager made me feel at home. I ended it all with cappuccino and sip of lemoncello was fantastic"

"This a beautifully decorated serene restaurant. Very romantic with tables set apart and linen tablecloths. The noise level is very low. The live piano players adds the finishing touch. The wait staff provide exceptional service. Very well paced and relaxed. This is complemented by excellent food. As well as the food being excellent, the presentation is great. There is a very broad wine list to suit all tastes. The sommelier recommended the perfect wine for our dinners. Definitely a place to return to. Highly recommended for a romantic night out or a celebration."

"I've been to Sorrento before. It's changed a bit in terms of management and staff. I have the sense that the staff is not led well anymore. Service used to be flawless. Our waiter missed the point several times (no bread refills, picking up glasses from other table to bring to the bar tender for a refill, boxing up food), not refilling water glasses).
Certain dishes were really good (mussels, lamb) but the sole, which is a delicate fish, was breaded like a fish stick. That was such a miss!
I will go back to Sorrento because I like the ambiance - piano, italian feel, romantic setting. I just hope the food and service will be more even and precise."

"Sorrento called to cancel our reservation due to a kitchen fire. However it was not cancelled on Open Table and when I tried to book a reservation at Damian's Cuccina that same evening, it would not let me. Said I already had reservations on that time and day."

"Had my belated birthday dinner with my fiance here. It was very romantic and reminded us of our time in Italy. The garlic olive oil that comes with the bread is awesome. The entrees were tasty with a good portion size. They even threw in a free birthdy dessert. Overall, the meal and service was wonderful."

"Our second visit in 2 months, as this has been a favorite. For the 2nd time, we were disappointed. Prior visit found the veal chewy, flavorless. On this visit, our food was served luke warm at best, my fish was very bland and my husband's ciappino was bland and the mussels were not good. Not sure if we'll return for a third try. Sorry as we have loved this place in the past."

"This was Morgan's choice for her birthday celebration dinner, and the experience was excellent. The wait staff was courteous, friendly and attentive and immediately intervened when one filet steak that had been ordered "medium" came to the table "well done"-- that item was replaced and the charge removed from the bill. Entrees ordered by other guests were mainly superb, although one guest noted that her sea bass was somewhat over-salted. As always, Sorrento's wine selection is both diverse and excellent, and the desserts were properly decadent. All things considered, the evening lived up to everyone's expectations and Morgan had a great birthday!"

"Well I went for my birthday and I usually do alot of research so that I can have the best experience. I decided on Sorento because of the reviews and so we went on March 11 and it started out very well although I had emailed the restaurant requesting not to sit in the front sun room. We got there and we were seated exactly where I did not want to be. It was fine though and so we started our evening. Our waiter started out very friendly but during the course of the evening his service went down hill. I wouldn't suggest this restaurant as it's over priced and the wine is way to expensive. The ambiance was beautiful but the service nor the food matched my expectation. I would give it 3 stars and not return.
