Reviews for Sorrentino's West in Edmonton, AB
Pleasant atmosphere and great service. The margherita pizza's flavours felt muted, and some of the bottom of the pizza was soggy... and stuck to the plate. I had higher hopes for the $17 margherita. Read more
Had the distinct pleasure of visiting this establishment for the first time, and I was impressed from the moment I walked in the... door. The food was fantastic and they have a superb wine selection. The staff are exemplary in ensuring their customer needsare met. From the hostess to the general manager, I can't say enough positive things about the staff. Super impressed. I wouldbe remiss if I didn't mention our server Ruth. If there's anyone who understands how customer service can make or break anexperience, it would be her. I look forward to hearing how she changes the world. Highly recommend repeat visits toSorrentino's West. Just loved it. Read more
We had a delightful evening dining at this restaurant. Our server, Rafat, was pleasant, engaging and attentive. He introduced us... to Vassilev, a young lady who left Ukraine and found a home with an Edmonton lady who opened her home to her. She was jobshadowing. Kudos to to everyone assisting her make a new life here. Back to the meal. Unsure what wine we wanted, Rafat askedwhat we like and he brought 3 samples. We really wanted to go Italian, however of the 3, we found the Argentinian red thesmoothest. I ordered the lasagna, it was excellent. It had the right amount of meat and pasta, the sauce was perfect. Thespaghetti carbonara and the salmon and shrimp meals were equally delicious. Overall, it was a lovely evening out. I only haveone minor critique, the two specials, both contained seafood. I think offering one seafood and one non seafood item would bebetter. Read more
I waited to write this review until I had been here a few times. My boss loves Sorrentino's and he gave out gift cards to here... for Christmas so I went and tried. Their food is DIVINE! The gift card got used up pretty quickly because it is on the moreexpensive side but it is so worth it. So many vegetarian options and they all taste sooooo good. So far I have tried theirfunghi misti pizza, roasted cauliflower (it's creamy and delicious), sorrentino salad (the red wine vinaigrette is to die forand the ingredients were so fresh), mushroom risotto, ricotta ravioli (probably the best ravioli I've had at a restaurant),penne arrabiatte with mushrooms instead of sausage (my favourite), and the panna cotta for dessert. My mouth is watering justwriting this review and remembering how good every single thing tasted. The setting is classy and cozy. I love the dim lighting.The tables are a little too close together in my opinion, but I try and get and get a booth every time. The service isimpeccable as well. 10/10 for ambiance overall. Strongly recommend going here. Read more
My fiancé and I had our first date at Sorrentino's Downtown and have loved the chain ever since. ? Have been visiting the West... location recently and have loved every single dish we've tried. This chain has the best Italian food in the city! ? Dishespictured: Photo #1: burrata salad, arancini, and bruschetta; Photo #2: close-up of burrata salad ("burratina epomodorini"); Photo #3: a pasta special with lobster, rose sauce, & cognac; the spaghetti carbonara.

With Sorrentino's being a local Italian favorite, I fully expected my taste buds to be transported to a state of Italian... euphoria but instead they ended up in what seemed like my very own kitchen. That's not to say the food was bad because let's behonest, I could ruin cereal, BUT it was just okay - nothing to write home about. I had the Linguine Pescatore which was statedas one of their most popular dishes, but was disappointed with the result. There wasn't much flavor to it and I felt like it wasjust linguine with some garlic milk poured over it. Essentially, I was catfished by this dish but that being said, this is myopinion and apparently lots of people do enjoy the food so just like what this dish could have used, take this with a grain ofsalt (A-Yoooo). But I digress... The cauliflower starter was OK but once again, nothing you couldn't do at home with a head ofcauliflower and some cheese. I expected more with the reputation this place holds. That being said, the service was spectaculardespite the volume of clients they were serving that day. And the dessert was phenomenal - it was a carrot cheesecake infusedwith caramel chunks with caramel dripping over it. It was a feature dessert so it may not be available when you go but by far,the best tasting dish I had there. I probably wouldn't go back for the food but for the service and ambiance - sure. TL;DR -Food was meh, service was yeh, would I recommend? Myeh? Read more
Been to sorrentinos west a few times, while the staff and atmosphere are nice, food quality can be a hit or miss. The patio is... tented so even on a cloudy day you can sit outside and enjoy some fresh air. The inside of the restaurant is dimly lit with aclassy finish. We ordered pollo portofino, beef lasanga, and linguine pescatore. The beef lasanga was bland and had little to noflavour. The pollo portofino was well made and infused with rich flavours however the prosciutto was very salty and itoverpowered most of the dish. The linguine pescatore was delicious, pasta was perfect and there was a nice balance of spice. Online reservations were very easy to make and the waitor brought us a surprise dessert on the house since we were celebrating aspecial occasion. Some of the food however cannot be remade because its sent in a package from their supplier which leaveslittle room for alterations. Not sure if I will be returning in the future. Read more
I came here for a nice evening with my Grandparents and I had an excellent time here. I ordered the Carne Pizza which included... many different types of meat such as ribs, pepperoni, and sausage. It was very good and it is a great size for a big guy such asmyself. For dessert, I ordered the Carrot Caramel Cake which was delicious. Definitely coming back here again. Read more
