We originally had reservations at a sister restaurant of Sorella’s on 12/30 but our group grew and they were unable to accommodate us. Sorella’s was recommended and with a quick call, they had a table waiting for us. The table was perfect for the six of us, a banquette. It provided a cozy atmosphere and comfortable seating. We arrived during their Happy Hour, which featured a tasty selection of appetizers and reasonably priced drinks and entrees. Everything ordered was perfectly prepared and enjoyed by all. Most notable was our server Tetyana. What a gem is this young lady! She’s well versed with the menu was very animated and cognizant of everything at our table, ensuring drinks were replenished and our meals tasty. Our dinner experience for the 6 of us consisted of well drinks, wine, bruschetta, Caesar salad, fritto misto, chicken Parmesan sliders, mafaldine, arancini, spaghetti, and baked lumache. No room for dessert. We all left well sated and had a most enjoyable evening.

Fantastic food and staff. We had my baby sprinkle lunch here, and they were so lovely and accommodating. The bucatini caccio e pepe is some of the best I’ve had. Highly recommend!

Celebrated our company’s Holiday party for the group in Virginia Beach. Vincent, Sorella’s manager made sure everything was as we requested. We started off with Prosecco and the brochette and meat and cheese platter. We then ordered off the menu which was lovely as everyone could get what they wanted. I had the scallops special for the day and it was delicious. Others enjoyed the Ravioli, the veal chop, the chicken Parmesan, and many other dishes. Everyone loved the food. Missy B was our Server and she did an outstanding job making sure everyone was happy! We then enjoyed desserts! I had the mixed berry Sorbet which was a perfect way to end a wonderful meal. Everyone loved the upbeat atmosphere and the friendliness of the whole staff. We highly recommend Sorella's for a large group or for a date night!

Service was awesome! They don't have a birthday desert, ( with happy birthday on it)so my waiter went above and beyond and put a candle on my desert which made my day. Food was good but my steak had a little too much fat and a little too much pink for a medium well. I don't return Food so I just ate half and reheating the rest tomorrow for lunch lol

My husband and I went to Sorella’s for a nice dinner without the kids, and this place did not disappoint. From the romantic atmosphere to the wonderful service from our server, Daniela, it was a perfect choice for a relaxing night out. The bread served before the meal was warm, toasted to perfection, and paired with a delicious dipping oil. We started with the bruschetta, which had a wonderful balance of flavors—creamy ricotta, salty prosciutto, sweet fig jam, and vibrant pesto. While it was tasty, it didn’t quite match what I’d typically expect from a bruschetta, especially since the bread on the table was actually more toasted than the bread used for the appetizer. For our mains, my husband really enjoyed his chicken parmesan, and my lumache pasta with short rib was outstanding—full of rich flavor and with melt-in-your-mouth tender meat. We managed to save room for dessert, sharing a cannoli with a silky-smooth, orange-kissed filling inside a crisp shell, accented with chocolate and pistachio. I paired it with an espresso that leaned a bit on the bitter side but was still enjoyable, especially with the two petite biscotti served alongside. It was the perfect spot to enjoy one of our last dinners on vacation, and if we find ourselves back in Virginia Beach, I can absolutely see us returning.
