good service. good food. fresh ingredients.
It was Garlic fest so there were many tasty dishes to choose from. Started with a chest roasted cauliflower and then dined on a shrimp in marinara sauce. Topped with garlic too! Well worth it!
Those so good and the service is the beta we have had in a long time. Jolene amazing! They happily accommodated some dietary requests and I loved the meal so so much!!!!!!
Excellent service tonight and the food was equally good as well. Went the extra mile for our friends birthday party! It was a great experience for all.
Ok, so I will be honest. I don't think Sorrentino's food is all that, however, it is tasty and hits the spot when you are looking for some italian. A friend and I decided to partake in the Garlic Festival last night at this location, and I am really glad that we did. Not just because we both looove garlic, but because the service was fantastic! From the gentleman who greeted us and showed us to our table (I am pretty sure he was a floor Manager) to our waitress and even the chef/cook who brought out our food. They were all so personable and attentive. They seemed to really enjoy their job which made us really enjoy our dining experience. I would go back just for the service alone! ...oh yeah, and the garlic themed dishes were yummy! I'd recommend the garlic braised beef ravioli :)
Venue: Lovely dining room. Classy and intimate with a good variety of seating options.
Staff: Polished. Very impressed with the staff here. They were all well mannered, attentive and you could tell a more traditional serving standard was in place. It was very refreshing.
Food: We all enjoyed our entries. You could tell all the ingredients are fresh and the dishes are made from scratch. We finished by sharing a slice of their famous tiramisu.
Good meal and good service. I was dining with a large group and we were seated in the private dining room in the back.
It was great that they had wine at 25% off that night and we picked a red and a white that were perfect for the price.
Service was excellent. All our food for the group arrived at relatively the same time and was all done as we had ordered. I had the veal Marsala and while the flavors were good the sauce could have been more intensely flavoured. Not that it was bland or unbalanced but I prefer a little more intense marsala flavor.
Desert was good. If there is tiramisu on the menu I must order it. While a lot of places scrimp on the mascarpone and tend to replace it with whipped cream or other ingredients. Not here. the only thing I missed was intense espresso flavor as there was not enough for my tastes.
We went here for date night. My boyfriend got the sea food
Pasta, which was delicious. I got
The veal cannaloni which was absolutely amazing. The bruschetta was so good as well. We did not think it was over priced at all. They took money off our bill for the bit of a wait but we didn't
Mind at all, considering how busy it was. We will be back.
The food was very good. I had the roasted garlic and the macaroni and cheese. The roasted garlic was okay.. The garlic lacked flavour and sweetness. The mac and cheese was excellent. The pork tenderloin was outstanding. The wait staff was fine. Ask for Fabio as your waiter, he is excellent.
Incredible Food & Excellent Service. We go to Sorrentino's West End (& St. Albert) several times a year & especially for special occasions. The food is absolutely amazing!!! The cheese meatballs appetizer is the best we've ever eaten - a January special but can be made year long by asking for the meatballs in a cheese sauce. The caesar's salad is wonderful. My wife special orders by having chicken with the marsalla sauce which is incredible! The steak is always cooked to perfection, tender and delicious. The salmon is fantastic. The service is excellent and we love sitting near one of the two fireplaces. Our family and friends also enjoy the gluten-free pasta. The tiramisu is heavenly. We highly recommend Sorrentino's West End ( & St. Albert) for the perfect meal and service.
Mi paborito. This is my favorite restaurant! I always have the calamari, Fruti de Mare or Linguine Pescatore, and Pollo Aoili pizza! The best italian resto in town!
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 more expensive side but it is so worth it. So many vegetarian options and they all taste sooooo good. So far I have tried their funghi misti pizza, roasted cauliflower (it's creamy and delicious), sorrentino salad (the red wine vinaigrette is to die for and 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 just writing 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 is impeccable as well. 10/10 for ambiance overall. Strongly recommend going here.
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 job shadowing. Kudos to to everyone assisting her make a new life here. Back to the meal. Unsure what wine we wanted, Rafat asked what we like and he brought 3 samples. We really wanted to go Italian, however of the 3, we found the Argentinian red the smoothest. I ordered the lasagna, it was excellent. It had the right amount of meat and pasta, the sauce was perfect. The spaghetti carbonara and the salmon and shrimp meals were equally delicious. Overall, it was a lovely evening out. I only have one minor critique, the two specials, both contained seafood. I think offering one seafood and one non seafood item would be better.
Had a last minute dinner out and enjoyed my mushroom bruschetta and Veal. The staffs are amazing Mido suggested a good old excellent food and my favorite sauvignon blanc. I really liked it. The service is fast and I can see a happy guests dining in this restaurant. If you want a delicious yet fresh dinner. Sorrentino’s West is a good try.
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! ♥

What a fantastic night! Dinner was amazing. The last time I visited this place was 20 years ago and it’s a good as I remember. The waiter was attentive and introduced us to Carmelo the owner. He shared a bit of history of Sorrentino’s and a wonderful drink to celebrate a special night for me and my partner. I highly recommend this place.
Great service. Tasty appetizers and delicious meals.
