Sorellina Jr. ..in a good way
4 Star Rating: Recommended

11/08/2007 Posted by bowdoin79

If you want the Sorellina experience without the attitude, then this is the place to come. It is on two levels which makes it seem more intimate. The staff is friendly , cheerful and helpful. When you enter there is a nice bar with some couches..so the whole first impression is one of comfort. The upstairs dining room is spacious and has nice , large windows. The booths are great , and there is a second bar on this floor . The food is broken into different catagories.. tastes, appetizers , pasta and main courses. I went with a large group, so we got to sample a wide array of courses. The pasta was varied and makes a great second course. Main courses were all well prepared, but the whole fish is a standout... and something you rarely see done these days and alone is a reason to come here. The Ligurian seafood stew was also a big surprise. The veal milanese was greasy ( yes ,Sorellina does it better) . Wine list is all Italian , but very affordable with many good bottles. Desserts are quite good...apple crostada was excellent. And to top it all off...there is complimentary parking in a lot right outside.

Pros: Great food, friendly staff....and free parking!!!!!!!!

Cons: none
