Reviews for Sorella in Hartford, CT
Good food and nice service. Your typical Italian restaurant and bar. Perfect for after work or family occasions.
My family and I were on the hunt for a quick bite to eat in the Hartford area before the Greater Hartford Jazz Festival and... stumbled across this establishment. This was not only my first time in Hartford, but also my first time at Sorella! Uponentrance, there is outdoor and indoor seating. My party decided to sit indoors since it's too warm outside. We were seatedalmost immediately and greeted by our friendly waitress. We ordered the Caesar Salad, Margherita Pizza, Il Diavolo Pizza, thePuttanesca Pasta, the Ravioli Cacio e Pepe, and the Orecchiette with Broccoli Rabe and Sausage. There was so much wonderful foodto enjoy! However, a few things I must mention though to future restaurant on goers. My mom ordered seltzer and wasn'tunderstood by our waitress who refers to this as club soda. Another critique about my dish: Ravioli Cacio e Pepe. This is myabsolute favorite pasta dish and it wasn't the best Cacio e Pepe. The sauce was a bit salty and the ravioli pasta was unique,but not authentic. I even asked to substitute the ravioli for spaghetti pasta and was told by the waitress that the chef wasn'ttaking any more substitutions tonight with many orders, but the restaurant wasn't crowded inside or outside. Overall, I enjoyedthe pizza more than I did with my pasta entree! Just some food for thought. I would still recommend visiting Sorella when inHartford! Read more
A party of 5 yelp friends went to sorella in beautiful Hartford. We weren't disappointed with anything we ordered. I love that... they have a special mocktails section of the menu..not everyone wants to or can drink alcohol. We ordered for starters Quattrocolore salad Grilled octopus Fried calamari For entrees I personally ordered The orecchiette, came with homemade sausagebroccoli rabe and Romano cheese which was delish homemade pasta made in-house as well Also at the table there was Linguine withclams Black linguine Chicken parmesan Rigatoni saltimbocca Which all had the homemade and house-made pasta and everyone seemedto enjoy their dishes as well I definitely would be coming back to check out the other items that they had on their menu cuzeverything was excellent Read more
Great ambiance and could make various menu items gluten free. My wife and I split the gluten-free pizza with pepperoni, sausage... and bacon. I was very delighted with the overall taste and texture of the crust. There was even an option for vegan cheese whichI found pleasantly surprising . Although we got regular cheese, I'd definitely get the vegan cheese on the gluten free crustnext time. Read more

We went while we were at downtown. This restaurant has a nice outdoor seating as well and the weather was good. We however sat... inside. The staff's hospitality was very nice. The drinks we ordered was really really good. The wood fried pizza was madefresh and we were able to customize it to our liking . Not a lot of options for vegetarians but we were able to get some toppingper our choice. Nice place to hang out if you are there in downtown. Read more
2 tips! 1) make a res for dinner 2) Gluten free pasta hack - ask them to UNDERCOOK it. Okay WOW. I had low expectations for... this place cause it was our 3rd choice but the other places were booked but oh my.. this food was incredible. Got Spicy RoseVodka (comes w sausage and mushrooms) and gluten free penne. Creamy, spicy, earthy, delicious. Boo got the eggplant parm. Theycut that thing THICCC. Perfectly cooked it and it had a more robust, almost meaty consistency. Cheese was brown andbubbly. Tiramisu was elegantly balanced, flavorful, not too sweet. Drinks were good too. Got the cranberry mule withcranberries as a garnish. Highly recommend this gem. Sat next to a local and she said it’s one of her favorites in the area. Read more
