Sorella

Overall, we had a good experience, but were a bit disappointed with a couple of the dishes. That being said, the service at the bar was excellent. I weighted the food review heavier than the service and atmosphere. As far as service, the bar staff was wonderful. My only piece of feedback is that the dishes from the kitchen didn’t feel timed properly. We barely got our drinks before the first dishes arrived and then within a minute we had our mains, which felt crowded and overwhelming at the bar- plus it made the first two dishes rushed. We had the caprese, carrots, risotto, and bolognese. The caprese, although super fresh tasting was lacking acid and had underripe peaches. I would have preferred the peaches were skipped or replaced with a ripe fruit. The carrots were served in a massive portion. I would have expected a third less on the plate, which would have given a much better carrot to topping ratio. This dish was also lacking some acid and a sauce , even EVOO would have helped it feel less dry. The nut and cheese topping tasted great, but added to the dryness of the overall dish. The risotto was great! Prawns cooked well and the sauces were lovely. Again, a large portion size. The pasta had great flavor and texture. Although my husband was left feeling a bit sick to his stomach after we left (and this was the dish he primarily ate). This may be unrelated, however it’s the only difference in our meals so I think it may have been the culprit.

My fiancé and I decided to celebrate her birthday at Sorella and couldn’t be more thrilled. Compared to other pasta options located in Spokane, Sorella takes the crown as our top spot. We indulged in some Arancini for the appetizer which had a wonderful, delicate crunch, and flavorful interior. For our entrees we had the “Alla Vodka” and “Lasagna” options. It should have been a dead giveaway that the Lasagna was a house speciality as it reads, “Limited Availability” on the menu. The creamy béchamel with house-made pasta sent this dish over the top. The only way to describe it is, ‘a dish worth traveling 30 mins out of your way for’. Thank you to our amazing sever, Kelsie, on providing excellent customer service and helping us celebrate a momentous occasion. We will be back!

Wow, we had heard good things about Sorella and I'm so glad we tried it out. From the time we stepped through the door, it was a great experience. The design is warm and inviting, with an interesting wall of photos and prints, moody lighting, and overflowing candles. Tables are arranged tight, but with enough space to hear your partner. Cocktail choices were interesting and tasty, I loved the Boulavardier. We decided to share two appetizers, the meatballs and the ricotta. Both hit our spots and got us ready for a main course. We shared the carrots and the Bolognese. The carrots were delicious and amazing with a little char and sweetness balanced with goat cheese and hazelnuts. The pasta was wide ribbons cooked just right covered in beurre blanc and topped with the meat sauce. I can't say enough. Yum!

While deciding where to spend our anniversary dinner - we wanted something different than the cliché steakhouse or sushi place. We heard of an Italian restaurant - Sorella and figured let’s try it! Best decision ever! Thank you for making our evening one to remember for years to come. Between the ambience, AMAZING customer service and spectacular food; we felt as though we were transported back to top notch, Michelin Star, restaurant in a major city. Compliments to the chef (LOVE the open kitchen), applause to the staff, and much appreciation to the owners/management for opening a place like this in Spokane and nailing it! Best date night restaurant in Spokane. Period.

We had our rehearsal dinner at Sorella a few weeks ago and Lauren, the owner/general manager, created a personalized menu for our group, which was so delicious. We had multiple courses and multiple dishes for each course (it was family style), including meatballs, salads, pastas, steaks, sea bass, and chicken parmigiana, and gelato/sorbetto for dessert. The wine list was curated to complement the menu and was well appreciated by all our guests. Parking was also easy with a public lot on the other side of the building. The next time we are Spokane we will definitely be back!

Amazing Experience! We sat at the bar and Elina was our bartender and she was awesome. Food exceeded expectations and cocktails were so yummy! The owner even came by and checked on us...superior service! Great for a date night or girls night or just when you want great food!

We tried Sorella for the first time to meet some friends we hadn't seen for a while. Our server told us, before we even sat down at 5:30, that the restaurant was almost of of the branzino and the lasagna (how does an Italian style restaurant run out of lasagna?). Our server then disappeared for a while as we were talking. My wife ordered the branzino and I ordered the Bolognese. When her fish arrived, it was probably the last cut of fish the restaurant had and it was tiny and super thin. It was served skin-on but was covered with a heavy red sauce that killed every other flavor, including the fish. It was overcooked and there were a number of large bones in the serving. Overall this dish was a disaster. My Bolognese was good but the sauce was really short of flavor and disappointing. Then the best news. Before we finished eating, a hostess came to our table and told us we have to leave the table in 15 minutes because another party was booked for that table. No one told us beforehand there was time limit and we had only been served about 50 minutes before we were told to leave. We hurried to finish and gave up on spending more time over the meal while we caught up with friends. This restaurant isn't worth the prices and experience. Olive Garden might be a better choice - they don't kick you out when they need a table.

This place is a secret gem and our go to for special occasions. Also our go to for when we want to feel special. Great chef, staff and food, as well as spirits! Highly recommended!

Sorella in Spokane Washington was an unexpected treat. It's a high quality Italian restaurant outside downtown that looks unassuming but speaks loudly when you enter to find a unique design anchored with crazy melted wax candles everywhere. It sets quite mood that turned out to be a great evening. We ate at the bar and the bartenders were lovely. They were as good at their craft as they are making you feel at home. The food was great but the cocktails even better. My first cocktail was An Italian in Paris (photo #4). It was a delicious gin recipe coupled with two different aperitifs and Green Chartreuse. It was deliciously complex. My second was Riot Act which is a spin on the classic Black Manhattan (photo #2). If a cocktail could be angry and fun at the same time it would be this recipe. The balance of rye, Cynar, Benedictine and Averna was bonkers. They threw in a little Demerara syrup for balance and it was fabulous. I will be recreating both of these at home because they were that good. We capped off our memorable evening with a little limoncello. Why not . It was random that I visited Spokane for the second time in my life, but I'm glad I randomly visited this gem. If you ever find yourself in Eastern Washington go see the fine folks at Sorella.

Mikayla was a phenomenal server!! (Admittedly I had to overhear her handling a more difficult table and she was so graceful with them.., I would not have been! Haha) the dishes we had were delightful, and we were watching others come out from the kitchen and they all looked fantastic. Such a tough choice to make! But the BOLOGNESE.... LOVE IT. This brought me so much joy, I savored every bite. This place is worth the hype, professionally ran and amazing food!

Went here twice in a row for a friends birthday dinner and valentine's day! Both times the food was phenomenal! We have no italian place like this in the area, you feel transported to a new place it's so cool. The service was amazing, on Valentine's Day they gave out roses and champagne when you walked in which was so special. Highly highly recommend. Favorite dishes: spicy rigatoni, carrots, leeks, and espresso martini!

I recently visited Sorella for the first time after hearing from many friends and colleagues that this beautifully designed restaurant also has excellent food. My partner and I didn't have a reservation, but we came by at 5:30 pm on a Tuesday and were able to get seats at the bar. This place does fill up, so unless you're here early or are going to chance it, reservations are a must. The bar offers a fun place to enjoy a cocktail and a meal. There is plenty of room to eat as the bar is roomy. Upon sitting down, we were quickly greeted by the bartender who asked me if I was Danish. I'm not Danish, but I lived there while studying at the Copenhagen Business School, and just so happened to be wearing some daisy jewelry from a very famous Danish silversmith that I purchased while living there. The fact that she recognized the jewelry because she's Danish and usually is wearing her daisy jewelry too was the coolest way to start off our time here. Honestly, how often do you find connection with someone so quickly? It felt kismet as I don't regularly wear my daisy jewelry. For dinner we shared Dante's meatballs. It comes with three meatballs and lots of extra sauce so we also got some focaccia to dip in the extra marinara. The focaccia alone was a standout and the whipped brown butter was salty and sweet at the same time. I also had the Cesare salad for dinner with grilled chicken. The house made dressing and lemon zest elevated this dish to a whole other level. My partner wanted the lasagna, but by 6 pm, they were already sold out. If the lasagna is not perfect, they don't serve it, making it more limited. Perhaps another reason to get here early too! He ended up with the Bolognese and said it was really good. For all the dishes we enjoyed and a couple drinks, we spent about $120 with tax and tip. So, Sorella is also fairly affordable considering the incredible quality.

Such an amazing first date experience! Had a perfect meal with excellent service. Arrived early for our reservation, so we were invited to enjoy a cocktail at the bar while we waited for our table. Our server, Kelsie, was just impeccable. Her wine recommendations for each of us were well paired with our meals and she is an absolute gem! Such a romantic atmosphere and we wish we had room for dessert, but I guess we will just have to come back!

Everything was excellent, from the wait staff, bartenders, food! My meal was so delicious. The roasted carrots were amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Tucked in Kendall Yards is a gem of a special occasion, chic, Italian restaurant. Step inside Sorella and be transported to Florence, Rome, or the Amalfi coast. You are definitely not in Spokane anymore. They have an outstanding bar and their wine selection is excellent. The food is divine, we started with the caprisi salad. I had their so delicious Lasagne, that if you don't come early enough they will have run out. My friend had the Veal Milanese another great choice. I don't think you can go wrong here on your choices and that's what makes it so difficult to choose. The service was friendly and informative our server helped us with our decisions and described some items we were unfamiliar with. It's definitely a five star kind of place.

This was our first visit to Sorella as tables are somewhat difficult to reserve. (High demand) The ambiance at first walk in was impressive with gold framed paintings dominating the walls and low romantic lighting. We ordered some very impressive dishes but I will say that the glazed carrots were especially tasty! However, what made our night was true was the exceptional service from Issac and Elisha! They made our dining experience a very memorable one as they were so kind and personable. We will be back for another dinner! Thank you Issac and Elisha! Joe & Amelia O'Brien

The food and atmosphere were phenomenal. It was on par with excellent Italian restaurants that I visited in New York City, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Spokane.

Finally got to try out Sorella with some friends for a Tuesday reservation. They are pretty serious about your party size and reservations including a $50 charge if you are missing your stated party, so pay attention. Not sure if they enforce that or not. Easy to park in back in the evening. We were seated promptly in middle booth right by the kitchen. The restaurant is warm and inviting, everyone a bit dressed up for the evening. Host was lovely, and the food was excellent. I don't get too excited for Italian, but this is, I would say, the best Italian available in Spokane. Excellent cocktails and a full bar with espressos. Meat balls were excellent, and the focaccia was better than I would have thought. I had the vodka pasta which was with chili, and literally the perfect amount of heat. The booth was comfortable and we never felt rushed. Service was attentive and really well pulled off. 100% an excellent 5 star Italian for Spokane. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the dishes available as you will see in many of the reviews, and the place is just a really great comfortable spot for a fancy dinner. 5 stars Sorella! We will be back.

Delicious food! Wonderful ambiance. I loved the books! I really liked the bechamel sauce with the lasagna. Very friendly servers

The pasta is handmade by a lady who rolls each one by hand! Sooo delicious! I had the trumpet pasta and it was amazing.

Enjoyed a girls night dinner here, the ambience, food, and service was excellent. We had some issues with our entrees and the manager fixed the issue, the dish came back better than ever. I appreciate how they were eager to help resolve the problem and they went out of their way to make it right. I will be returning.

I had the pleasure of getting to Eat Sorella while I was in town. Honestly, it was the best pasta I've ever had. I've eaten Italian food all over the world. Every dish was delicious, I made sure to try them all lol. This place is special. We made a reservation but fortunately I watched a few walk ins be able to eat right away by choosing the bar which has some extremely comfortable chairs. The vibe of the whole restaurant is perfect. The Vibe is 10/10 The drinks are 10/10 The food is 15/10 Don't walk, RUN to this place!

Wonderful entries with good-sized portions and side dishes that you can share family style. Service was great.

Salute! Meaning cheers in Italian Tonight was filled with superb rich flavors and an ambiance to match at Sorella in Kendall Yards. Fresh pasta, modern Italian interior, vibrant energy and a wonderful staff! Highly recommend to book your reservation ASAP... Buon appetito! .*** First two visits were 5 star, the 3rd visit 4 star- meatballs were cold and the server didn't seem to have a full knowledge of the menu. Will still be going back. -Espresso Martini (Best in town) -Aperol spritz -Dante's Meatballs -Vodka Pasta: canestre a la vodka, Calabrian chili, saffron. -Limone pasta w/chicken: mafalde, lemon, butter, parmigiana. -Bolognese pasta (GF penne): house bolognese, parmigiana.

Everything you want in a restaurant from the menu to the vibes to the staff. 10/10 every time and well worth every penny! A must try for any Italian lovers in the area.

Ambiance is amazing - think moody study or old classic library. Super cool. Food was phenomenal. We shared Dante's meatballs, and he chose lasagna, I chose the vongole. The meatballs and the lasagna are not to be missed - I'd order both again. Vongole was ok but it was missing something for me. The drinks looked great too!

Finally, Spokane truly has an authentic Italian restaurant, and it's in Kendall Yards. MAKE RESERVATIONS//They do have walk-ins available, but the bar fills up pretty fast. I love the decor, ambiance, the velvet couches. What a fantastic idea. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and our questions. Since I was undecided, we decided to order several things. Scratch made pasta we couldn't pass up. For appetizers, we got the focaccia and meatballs. And with the first bite, I immediately compared it to the Pink Door in Seattle. And I was not expecting the meatball actually to outshine the Seattle restaurant! I can't believe it. It's light and airy; this sauce is just chef's kiss. Burrata - delicious strawberry basil salad. Great for this summer. I will be ordering this again. Limone pasta comes with chard half lemon, squeeze it all over your freshly made pasta. You can taste the difference. There's nothing quite like it. Hubs and I got the mouthwatering, tender fillet and chicken parmigiana that was surprisingly not over salty as some other restaurants I was surprised by how friendly all the staff were. The owner was even making her rounds at the tables, checking on everybody and seeing how the food was. Every single thing we tried here was a 10 out of 10 CHEF KISSSSS YUM. Wait a minute. I can't forget about the desert, the chocolate almond flour torte gf and the strawberry tiramisu ( I like this one because it wasn't overly sweet) Before I left, we made reservations again because they were booked out for four weeks. We are very excited to come back here for another date.

WOOOOOWWWWW!!!!! First time. Everything perfect. Ambiance is so cool! Feels like you're surrounded by green velvet and old world charm with modern italian food. Chefs are right there in room with you. No chaos. Drink menu is spectacular and arranged in a fun way that makes you want to try a lot. Server was so good and charming. The only thing I'll say that would be cool to change...Everyone has had tiramisu and gelato. Maybe a really cool lesser known dessert from one of the dessert capitals in the world? Sfogliatella, panna cotta, bonet, granita....mmmmm! Would be cool to have something no one else in Spokane has. Will be back again and again!

Food was just ok. Nothing that we tried was spectacular, but it wasn't bad either. Service was the best part. Our server was sweet and attentive and had a great wine recommendation. The ambiance was what we really struggled with. It was so insanely loud. It felt like we were eating in a well decorated mess hall. Having to yell in order to have a conversation to your husband across the table is not my idea of fine dining.

Fabulous. Lauren (owner) has outdone herself with the menu and space of Sorella. Dishes are carefully and thoughtfully prepared and I enjoyed watching through their open kitchen. The star of the show for me was the spaghetti served with my eggplant parmigiana. House made and simply prepared with butter, I left eager to try the rest of the pasta on their menu. Reservations are highly recommended.

Honestly, we were pretty disappointed after dining here in mid-June. Most know that reservations for Sorella can be a bit difficult to obtain, but it seems that's mainly because the establishment preserves tables for larger groups at the expense of smaller parties. We wished to dine on a Tuesday night, and as late as Monday evening there was no problem securing a table for 3+, but a two-top wasn't available. It wasn't until Tuesday midday that it became possible to obtain a reservation for two. This seems silly for anything after 7PM, since most large midweek parties are likely to be work gatherings which would occur between 5-7PM. My point here is proven by the fact that as we dined, the restaurant was desolate after 8PM. How many parties of two ate elsewhere that night, having been unable to secure a reservation in advance? Next, was the overall presentation of the venue. Walking in the front door, we were greeted by flatware, napkins and cleaning rags lining the bench meant for patrons waiting to be seated. This was accompanied by a vacuum next to the host stand, which itself was littered with half-empty beverages being consumed by staff members. Not a great look. When ordering wine, we discovered that most pricing was triple retail. In no way do I mind paying this surcharge when the wine is properly stored and presented by trained staff, but neither is the case at Sorella. The menu fails to fully identify many of the Italian imports, simply identifying, for example, a Montepulciano. Is this a Vino Nobile or just a Rosso? There is a substantial difference in character and price between the two, and our server didn't know. I advised her that a vintage would reveal the answer, but she couldn't find the wine on the racks against the wall that house the restaurant's wine at ambient temperatures. Again, lacking the polish commensurate with the prevailing prices. Our server was polite and attentive, which was a plus. Unfortunately, she was sent home about the same time the staff began stacking chairs on adjacent tables as we continued to dine. It was well before 9PM when this activity began. While I certainly understand the need to maximize the efficiency of the waitstaff, this was quite off-putting. There were bright spots... the two antipasto courses we selected were well executed, in particular the arancini. The carrot contorni was interesting and very enjoyable. Unfortunately, both of our pasta dishes fell short of expectations. My wife's mafalde limone suffered from a broken sauce and an excess of cheese, resulting in a greasy, lumpy presentation. The bolognese on my pappardelle was quite good, but the puddle of sauce beurre blanc at the bottom of my dish (not necessary!) created a gloppy mess. It's something of a cardinal sin for an Italian restaurant to produce pasta dishes this poorly. Overall, I think there's a lot more that needs to be done here to justify the evening's $190 tab...

Went without reservations (which I don't recommend if possible) but was seated at the bar in less than 10 minutes. Owner was covering for sick associate behind bar. She was as nice as could be. We had one of the best meals there and the cocktails were on point. The decor was amazing. Not a single thing negative in our whole experience. Dante's meatballs rivaled anything I've ever had and I come from a big Italian family and have traveled the world. Caesar salad was very flavorful and the lasagna was on point. Don't miss this gem

I recently have had the opportunity to dine at this fine restaurant. The lasagna is amazing!

Booked a dinner res at 5 PM for mom and my first trip to Spokane -- we visited from Los Angeles. First impression: BEAUTIFUL, classy, eye-catching. It almost has a speakeasy-esque atmosphere. It is very inviting and romantic. Would be great for a date night. This establishment makes its own pasta, but also has a few entrées and a variety of apps. We went with the arancini, which was DELICIOUS. It was perfectly fried and the smoked mozzarella pomodoro with basil oil sauce was superb. We also ordered the radiatore pesto pasta dish, which came with prawns, cherry tomatoes, and zucchini. The pesto was tasty, but our shrimp was slightly overcooked and the dish as a whole could have been hotter. Not a deal breaker, just an observation. We shared the branzino, which came with arugula/fennel salad, green salsa, and lemon. Though the sea bass was cooked perfectly, we thought the plating could use some work. It just appeared somewhat sloppy. Also, for a $42 plate, we expected a larger fish. Our server said the branzino is a whole fish without the head and tail, but it seemed rather small. Service was friendly and accommodating. No complaints! Definitely book a res!

Keep in mind they lock their doors an hour before they close. They also don't answer their phones which is frustrating.

Awesome place! Great cocktails, delicious food, and good selection of desserts (forgot to get pictures of those). The service was nice and fast. And the ambiance was upscale low lite, amazing!

I want to start this review off with "What's not to love?"... when entering we were treated by an amazing hostess (Emma), we were seated quite promptly for being early to our reservation; it was busy, but for a quaint place it was surprisingly not loud. You could tell everyone was enjoying themselves, after being sat our waitress had been over to greet us with waters (perfect timing on her behalf)... we had ordered wine (Glass of Sangiovese and Pinot Noir) which were both absolutely delicious, we then ordered two appetizers; Dante's Meatballs and the Focaccia, we had heard amazing things yet these had exceeded our expectations! (I'm quite picky about "good food"). We ordered the Limone with Chicken as well as the Al La Vodka, ABSOLUTELY WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST WE HAVE HAD! A guest seated next to us had recommended the house made Limoncello; I am so glad she did! We were celebrating our birthday and had received some Lemon Sorbet that was so refreshing!!! We left full, but a good kind of full; we didn't feel weighed down! Everything here is fresh and worth it! We drove an hour to be here, and so glad we did! This is now our go to Spokane spot! I didn't catch our servers name, but she was stunning & had the most professional/intimate service we have received! We absolutely love it here and will be back very soon! Thank you Sorella!!!

Tried to pop in for dinner on a Tuesday but had to sit on the patio because we didn't have a reservation. I was impressed they were that busy on a Tuesday but also a little bummed we didn't get to experience their entire menu since it's limited in the patio. But what we did try was quite delicious, we ordered the arancini, the truffle burrata, panzanella salad and the lemon pasta with chicken, everything was really really good. I loved the presentation and the service was excellent, extremely friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back and have dinner inside the restaurant, note to self, make reservations.

Sorella is beautifully decorated. The service and food are very good. The problem is that it's overpriced. Four people had 5 drinks, focaccia bread appetizer, vegetable plate to share, and four pasta dishes for dinner, and we spent $360 for dinner, with the tip. Basically, we ate bread, pasta and one vegetable dish, and spent $90 each. It's a nice restaurant, but not worth the money.

Fabulous all the way around! The food was superb. From the meatballs that melted in your mouth and have layers of flavor to the light and unique salad to our main courses and topped off with excellant coffee and sorbetto! It is obvious they pay attention to detail and are thoughtful with their flavor profiles. The service was terrific. Friendly, yet thorough, and great timing. The atmosphere combines a comfortable vibe with a very classy feel. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend Sorella!

Terrible service. We showed up at 7:30 as a walk-in and we were 100% prepared to wait. We were very excited from all the reviews and photos, but when we walked in the service was terrible. The hostess told us that there was no availability for the night PERIOD, so we started looking online for new restaurants. Two more people walked in after us and the hostess told them the same as us EXCEPT that they could put their name down for the bar and wait for a table. They did the same to another pair that came in. It was absolutely egregious that they did not tell us the same. We were totally understanding of how packed the restaurant was and we were planning on coming back the next day with a reservation. But not after that service. Very disappointing.

Sorella is a well-executed glitzy Italian restaurant and a much-needed addition to spokane's finer dining scene. The four of us were seated by the open kitchen, which was interesting to observe and gave off The Bear vibes. The booth we sat in was pretty tight but bearable bc, with the loud/chatty ambiance, it kind of made you feel like you were an avant-garde artist in an Italian salon? lol we ordered the ricotta w focaccia ($14), dante's meatballs ($12), broccolini ($12), a la vodka w prawns ($31), veal parmigiana ($32), lasagna ($28), san marzano w chicken that came out much later than the pasta ($26), and pistachio panna cotta ($12). All of the pasta and the meatballs were a bit salty, but other than that they tasted rich in flavor. The san marzano and parmigiana's pomodoro sauce was too acidic for my liking and the pasta for those were a bit too al dente for me, but the a la vodka and lasagna were practically perfect. Our waiter seemed to be the only one on duty and looked super busy, but was friendly and hospitable and offered to comp the san marzano's chicken. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and agreed we would be happy to come back and try other items on the menu.

Wow!!! First, the food is amazing. Our group started with the meatballs and focaccia. I'm not sure I will ever have a meatball this delicious again in my life until I come back here, which will be very soon. For dinner, we had the lasagna, osso buco, and bolognese. Thankfully, everyone was open to sharing, mainly because everyone was convinced they had the best dish and were trying to prove it. Turns out, we all won. I'm not sure I could say what was best, so choose your own adventure and you won't be disappointed. We had the privilege of being sat next to the open kitchen and my only regret was that I didn't order everything on the menu because all of it looked fantastic. The head chef orchestrated a smooth food service and quality controls every dish leaving the kitchen. If you are looking for a gourmet experience, this is it. The atmosphere is super cool and has a great vibe. Trendy music makes for a fun and upbeat experience. The noise level is higher than many restaurants, but in a good, fun way. This isn't your traditional sleepy Italian restaurant with a crappy bowl of minestrone and a loaf of bread. This restaurant is what you get when you travel to a "cool" city and always say, "why doesn't Spokane have something like this?". Well, here it is...finally..and thank god.

Kendall Yards is lucky to have this lovely new restaurant. Sorella is authentic Italian with recipes that are passed down and traditional. As you walk inside, you are greeted by a beautiful wall of framed photos and stunning decor. Take time to soak in the details, such as the light fixtures and melted candles. Sorella didn't miss a beat with putting together their vision. The bar is so beautiful, and the barkeep has put together a unique cocktail menu with something for everyone. I even had a Prosecco that was new to me, and let's be honest, I do drink a lot of a Prosecco. The food is exciting and vibrant. The pasta is made in-house, and it shines. I absolutely loved my Limon pasta. This is a stand out dish. It is served with half a lemon all charred and ready to squeeze your desired amount of extra lemon goodness to elevate your pasta. Don't be shy and squeeze that lemon all over. The sides are not to be missed. I will highlight the carrots because they are divine. These are mouth-watering golden nuggets. So tender, they cut with a fork. Sprinkled with fresh goat cheese and macadamia nuts. I've never tasted such a perfect pairing. This dish is a large side and a great addition to any dish. I enjoyed the Burrata salad to start. I can not even describe how the flavors in this salad pop. It is light and flavorful with unique blends of mouthwatering vegetables and fresh house made cheese done so perfectly. You definitely want these flavors dancing in your mouth. The staff is just excited as you to be here. The owner, Lauren, makes her rounds and even came over to check in and say hello. The servers were friendly and efficient. They have experience, and it shows. I felt so at home during my stay. I hope y'all will make a reservation and get in here. If you can't snag one, then show up at 5pm and get a lucky spot at the bar. Full service and first come, first serve. You'll love watching all the beautiful cocktails being made. Chef's kiss.

Make reservations a week or more ahead of time! Appetizers 5/5 - Dante's Meatballs - Arancini - Focaccia Entrees 5/5 -Carbonara -Vodka -Nero Dessert 3/5 -cannoli Service was great, food was great, had better cannoli elsewhere. Definitely recommend the vodka (which our waitress actually suggested). The interior was swanky, dark, and romantic, but also perfect for a nice night out with friends. Only thing, the music is loud. We had a hard time hearing each other, and I am hard of hearing which made it even more difficult. Overall, definitely recommend!

We went here for a date night and it was spectacular! We wanted to try everything, so we started we an order of the meatballs, the whipped focaccia bread and caesar salad. The meat balls were very good, the focaccia bread was delicious and the caesar salad was one of the bests i've ever had. For our entrees we had the limone pasta and the chicken parmigiana, both were absolutely delicious. To end the night we shared a tiramisu and it was of course amazing. Sorella is definitely a new favorite of ours and we look forward to coming back!

The food was great and so was the ambience. I enjoyed sitting near the kitchen area so I could watch the production take place.

We had a 5pm reservation, we were promptly seated in our "quaint" table for two and received immediate service. Our server was great, however, did not offer up any dessert when our meal was finished. The food was delicious! Sadly the visit was ruined when we were asked to vacate our table. We were told that we were infringing upon the next guests' reservation. The two of us were already in the process of preparing to leave, but apparently not quick enough. I've never had a restaurant push me out. I will admit, we had been in our seats for approximately 2 hours on a Thursday night. Our bill was $190 before tip (included wine) so we had a full meal, not just hors d'oeuvres.

Recently my husband and I went out on a date and decided to try this restaurant. The energy was amazingly on point and the dim light ambiance added to the electric night life. We ordered a good amount and had a learning experience as well, which will be highlighted below: Appetizers *Focaccia: It was delightful, light and filled with a homemade touch *Whipped Ricotta: The black truffle honey did us in! The whipped ricotta was light, fluffy and easily spread on the wheat baguette. The baguette was a bit harder than I normally experienced, but it blended well together. Insalata *Butter Leaf: My husband enjoyed this salad and especially enjoyed the candied walnuts. *Burrata: I ate this fruit based salad, which was surprisingly good. I was a bit hesitant because of the snap peas as part of the meal, but it added a delightful crunch to the overall taste. Pasta *Limone: This type of pasta is basically the ridges of the lasagna pasta, which was carefully mixed with lemon, butter and parmigiana. I opted to have grilled chicken with it which was light in flavor and not heavy on the stomach. *Vodka: My husband ordered this meal without any meat (he did not want any), which was not the best. The vodka sauce overpowered the pasta along with the Calabrian chili that was the finishing touch on the meal. I tried some of his meal and I didn't like it as well, but did offer for him to eat my meal and I'd finish his. The gentleman like he is, he declined. He didn't finish his meal, but our waiter wanted to know if we wanted to take it home. We declined and did ask for honest feedback. We mentioned how 'saucy' the meal was with the pasta as well as questioned what type of vokda was used in the sauce (Grey Goose is the best in our opinion). We were offered to have the meal "comped" (which was not our intention). The chef came out to talk with my husband about his meal experience. My husband complimented the chef about how well the meal and experience except the Vodka pasta meal; he later questioned the chef about what type of vodka was used which an answer was not able to be given. Other than that issue, everything else was great. Drinks The drinks were well prepared, tasty, and strong. That did not disappoint. Selections chosen: Aperol Spritz, Sofisticata, L'Eclisse. Pros * Ambiance was amazing and we enjoyed it very much * Appetizers and drinks were amazing * Food was great Cons * The vodka pasta meal was too saucy * Nothing else to share We appreciated the experience and so look forward to returning. We're all about local businesses and want this business to succeed because it a great place to dine and create new memories.

I'm so happy to share that we finally food a GOOD restaurant in Spokane. A lot of the times when we try food here, we're left disappointed or feeling like the food was alright . However, Sorella exceeded our expectations. We came on our anniversary, and we were given complimentary champagne with a card wishing us happy anniversary. Honestly, a lovely surprise. The ambiance of the place was perfect, not too dark, and not too lit up and in your face. There was the open kitchen and the bar area. Good size place that was big enough to accommodate large groups, and smaller ones for bar seating. Now the menu isn't gigantically large, but with enough options to pick from. We went a little overboard and ordered 8 plates. We ordered the meatballs, arancini, carrots, Cesar salad, whipped ricotta, limone pasta, and the market pasta and fish. Before I speak about the food, I want to mention we had the most wonderful server. Apparantly they were out of the meatballs, but they just had 1 left - and she gave us that last one. She was so personable, and easy to talk to, it would be part of the reason why we would come back . Back to the food. What we would order again is the meatball, ricotta, and the pastas. Everything was cooked perfectly. Nothing was too salty, or over cooked. You get more than you would think for appetizers. The meatballs and arancini were large, and the carrots serving could probably feed 2-4 people! But not a complaint over here. Plates came out in timely manner, not too fast and not too slow which I really appreciated. We demolished all 8 plates. The drink menu was also great. I ordered the Bellini and Hugo - both were tasteful and I could have definitely ordered more rounds of it. All in all we were ecstatic we finally found a place to get great food. We will definitely come back!

The service was great. I liked the ambiance but it was admittedly a bit cramped and crowded. Not necessarily a negative as it wasn't overly noisy. The food was good. My family all really liked theirs. I felt my entree to be a bit too rich for my preference, but the focaccia and carrots were perfect. Would definitely come back to try some other items.

Wow!! My friends and I came here when we were out and about and somehow were able to snag a table for 4! The food is incredible, I loved the cesar salad, and the lemon pasta. I have tried re creating it at home multiple times as i find myself thinking about it quite frequently! The decor and ambiance of the restaurant is so unique and so incredible, nothing like i've ever seen before! I definitely would recommend this place to anyone looking for some good pasta!

Doors were locked at 8pm, called restaurant and google showed closing at 9pm. Other patrons were inside eating. Door was locked and no employee came to talk to us.

The food is great and the pasta is some of the best I have ever had. The ambiance is very unique. This place has some great service as well. I am glad to have this in Spokane.

Food was ok service was good. I am thinking place 2 week out to get reservation place is small that's why you need reservation which is fine. I would come back with friends. Need to change web site Allot of items you done have anymore. I went off web site to view my options

Was in from out of town and found this gem. Best Italian food I have had hands down and I try Italian everywhere I go. Small but stylish with comfortable seating and a very chic vibe. The food though! Wow. We both had the bolognese but we drooled over tables next to us getting other items. If I lived here this would be a regular go to for sure.

Just had the most exquisite dinner at Sorella! The atmosphere is beautiful, the service was top notch, and the food was absolutely amazing! Totally recommend! I can't wait to go back again!
