My wife, son & Myself visited today for the first time, after hearing brilliant reviews, & we were not disappointed. The level of professionalism we received from the moment we walked in the front door, was unbelievable. The food was STUNNINGLY beautiful, authentic Italian cuisine. I had the stuffed chicken, my wife had the beef escalope, & my son had the kids menu. The food was perfection. We will 100% be returning, on a regular. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner
What a beautiful review — thank you so much! It warms our hearts to know that you, your wife and your son had such a wonderful first experience with us at Sorrento. From the moment you walk through our door, it's our mission to make every guest feel truly welcome, so hearing that the level of professionalism stood out means everything to us.
We're thrilled the food hit the mark too — the Stuffed Chicken and Beef Escalope are real favourites, and we're so glad the little one enjoyed the kids menu as well
With warmth,
The Sorrento Family

Booked a table for three. Extremely welcoming staff, with a warm welcoming smile. The food was truly excellent. Wonderful tastes, perfectly presented - almost too good to eat. Extremely fresh produce. I ordered the Classic Bruschetta for a starter and the cherry tomatoes were unbelievably tasty and well seasoned. For my main course I ordered Rigatoni Contadina. Once again incredible taste, and again well seasoned. The accompanying wine I ordered complemented the meal entirely - Savignon Blanc Trentino. For dessert I ordered the freshly-made Tiramisù and this was truly a taste explosion - incredible, 10 out of 10. I would strongly recommend to anyone and I will be back very soon. Delicately and tastefully designed interior too. Lastly, I must say it was very reasonably priced for the top-quality service and outstanding food on offer.
Response from the owner
Dear Neil,
Thank you so much for this detailed and generous review! It was truly a pleasure to get to know you and to have you at our table. We're delighted that the Classic Bruschetta and Rigatoni Contadina won you over - our chef takes great pride in sourcing the freshest produce and seasoning every dish with real care. It's also wonderful to hear that the pairing with the Sauvignon Blanc Trentino was just right.
Hearing that our Tiramisù le
ft you speechless means the world to us - it's made fresh every day, and it's one of our team's favourite things to prepare.
Thank you too for appreciating the atmosphere and value for money - it matters enormously to us that every detail, from the welcome at the door to the final course, is looked after with genuine attention.
We can't wait to welcome you back again very soon!
Warm regards,
Sorrento

This restaurant is an absolute treasure. The food is amazing, so fresh, tasty and well presented. I had the sea bass with asparagus tempura and it was the best meal I have had in a long time. We were all delighted with our choices. The staff were extremely professional and friendly. We tried to book for the next night but unfortunately they were fully booked. No surprise. Would def recommend.
