Best Italian Restaurants in Houston, Texas | Eater Houston

"Clad with paintings by Picasso and Chagall, twinkling lights, and a mural of the restaurant’s namesake Italian city, Sorrento transports Montrose diners to Italy with Italian dishes served in a romantic and moody backdrop. Dig into plates of lobster tortellini, veal osso buco, and pan-seared branzino with lemon risotto as a piano plays in the background. Then, savor the moment with the Grand Marnier and chocolate souffle or Italian bread pudding." - Marcy de Luna

A wonderful Italian dining experience for those who don't mind paying $$$$ for it. We shared soft polenta and jumbo crab cake, and she had the wild mushroom and sage ravioli while I had the spaghetti with veal meatballs and Tuscan bean soup with oxtail and beef broth. The soup was absolutely extraordinary, and the rest of the meal was excellent! Clean and nicely decorated venue, quiet setting, attentive and professional waitstaff, and convenient valet service make Sorrento an excellent choice. Recommended for couples seeking a romantic setting and are willing to pay for it. Not likely to work as well for families, especially those with small children. Reservations are definitely advised.

Sorrento Ristorante Italiano in Houston’s offers an elegant, romantic fine-dining experience. With its candlelit ambiance and live piano, it’s perfect for date nights or special occasions. The menu features beautifully plated Italian dishes like handmade pastas, sea bass, and filet mignon. Service is attentive and professional. While it’s on the pricier side, but it’s worth it for the atmosphere and quality. A top choice for a memorable evening out.

Came here for a big group celebration in the private room and it was lovely. Sadly I only got one picture of the food but everything was delicious. Filet mignon was cooked to perfection and the bass dish was light, fluffy, and buttery. The waiter was very attentive and a man of his craft - you can tell he’s being doing this a long time and he cares about his work! The live piano player was also spectacular. Come here for an elegant date night or to remember a special occasion with love.

Tried this place out tonight. The atmosphere when you walk in is very welcoming and peaceful. The ambiance is nice! The wait staff were on point and everyone is very polite and well mannered. We had the Polenta with Lump Crab Cake for an appetizer and it was amazing! For the main dishes we had the pan seared salmon with risotto and the pan seared branzino with a lemon risotto. Both dishes had perfectly balanced flavors and were sooo delicious. Will definitely be going back to this restaurant.

They were able to accommodate our large group last minute. I got the octopus app special which was good except the carrots seemed odd. Also tried the tagliatelle pasta with chicken which was good but I'll likely order something with more kick next time.

I went to Sorrento to celebrate my husband ‘s birthday. First the place is clean and Cousy. Also the piano music is elegant, and romantic. Second the food was fresh and very tasty. The last but not least, Raul’s service was outstanding. So, we will back soon.

I came here last night and ordered my usual bc it's my favorite, being the Vodka Torchette. Very delicious, aromatic, creamy, doughy and a smidge spicy and subtly sweet at the same time. The pasta tasted very fresh and homemade. The sauce was so good and really paired perfectly with the savory ground meat and soft noodles. The pasta with meatballs is my backup dish here, but this one is a must for me especially dining in. Great, friendly service as well. I also appreciate how this restaurant and a couple other upscale, real Italian spots in the city provide free bread making the meal even more filling unlike places that charge for it.

The waiter briskly took my order and was not amenable to answer more than 1 question. I ordered the pasta with prosciutto. When it arrived it was bathed in an overly rich sauce with an overcooked and overdone cardboard piece of prosciutto. There was as much sauce as there was pasta on the plate. I would not have ordered this if there had been a description of the dish on the menu. Not once did the waiter return after the food was delivered to see if we enjoyed the meal. This was my first time eating at the restaurant and it will probably be my last.

My initial visit to Sorrento Ristorante Italiano was with a group of five celebrating a birthday. The restaurant was very busy with densely populated patrons requiring careful maneuvering when moving about the dining room. We sat in an enclosed section that appeared to be a patio which offered plenty of space and a very comfortable environment. We all sampled each other's dishes and they ranged from not so great to superb. My entree was the Braised Beef Short Rib which was absolutely outstanding. The opposite end was the sea bass which was overcooked and tough. Others were pleased with their pasta dishes and the bread tray was not only a cool display, it tasted great regardless of the selection. I certainly return because they proved to me that they can produce some incredible food.

I had a wonderful solo date at Sorrento Ristorante via online reservation through Open Table. When I arrived, I was seated immediately at the bar where my seat was decorated with a heart shaped napkin. I ordered the soft polenta and crab cake, caesar salad and the pizza as well as 2 glasses of Prosecco. Overall, the experience was wonderful, the live piano was an added bonus and I'd definitely return back for a solo date or romantic date.

Food was excellent and they were very accommodating. I have a gluten allergy and they were able to accommodate the food for me. Also a person I was with one of the pasta carbonara, which is not on the menu and they swiftly agreed to make it. Very good restaurant great service

We started out when the waiter brought their large bread basket from which you can choose amongst half a dozen types of bread; my suggestion if you're into "tasty" is to go with the focaccia, and also because it's easy to manipulate in the dip which is oil and several herbs and a big bulb of roasted garlic. As an appetizer we ordered the lobster bisque and the arugula salad. The lobster bisque was a light, slightly thinner version than I'm used to, but I thought it was actually packed with a lot of good flavor. Mr.Picky took a bite of my arugula salad with the little miniature dried figs and the candied pecans and decided to keep that salad plate and pushed his soup over to me. I liked them both and didn't care which I was eating. He liked the balsamic vinegar on the salad. Next time on that salad I would again have them hold on the prosciutto, have extra candied pecans, and also ask them to add extra little baby dried figs because those were a yummy bite. For my part, I was craving pasta and my favorite food which is cheese so I told the waiter to ignore the prosciutto and just put the mozzarella on this dish which is a spaghetti and oil base entrée. When serving the dish he grated Parmesan onto it and I told him to just keep grating for the next week. LOL. That was a very simple plate of spaghetti that was absolutely enjoyable and satisfied all my cravings. Mr. Picky made a great choice when ordering the lasagna which arrived at the table piping hot, looking really pretty, and tasting just as good. You couldn't go wrong ordering that; I stole a bite and thought it was excellent. We finished by both selecting the key-lime pie which looked and tasted homemade to me, enjoyed it (I later asked and Sergio said they make everything here on the premises, and that definitely comes across on the taste of the food); the key-lime pie was the best I've tasted in years. The restaurant decor is traditional, and nicely comfortable. Our waiter Sergio was very helpful in answering my many questions. We both ordered the Power Lunch and that's an amazing deal at $35. Overall, the food was really great and Mr. Picky lamented we had to drive the miles to get here, but thought it was worth the trip. We've been bemoaning the lack of great Italian restaurants in Houston, but we think we just found one with this location. Can't wait to eat here again when we're back in the area.

Booked this place over a month in advance for Valentine's Day. We were not notified until today that it would be prefix menu only. On principle we don't like the idea of being forced into an overpriced pre-fixed menu that is clearly an opportunistic money grab. Now we have to scramble to find another reservation with less than 2 weeks notice and all the desirable reservations at other restaurants are taken. They should be more transparent with the pre fix menu - had we known ahead of time we would have just booked elsewhere well in advance. It was our mistake putting out trust in this restaurant for a special night such as Valentine's Day

I looooove this place! The vibe is so romantic and the restaurant is welcoming. I have eaten here a few times and I have got to say my fave dish is the lasagna! We've had multiple dishes and I haven't been disappointed! Everyone is friendly and the waitstaff is very courteous.

Very fun place. They have live music from a piano player. All the good tastes good and what you would expect. The Risotto appetizer was great! Would recommend

Generally expected more for the price point. The major turn off was the gnats flying around us the entire time; and in the women's bathroom, they were even worse.. very off putting for such an esteemed place. However, the fresh pasta is delicious and the espresso martini was the BEST I have ever had! Still dreaming about it.. would go back for it.

Yelp
Nice ambience, food was delicious, and our waitress was excellent. We did feel a little rushed to hurry & order by the manager walking around. We were still trying to eat our appetizer. After we ate, we felt more rushed. It was our anniversary so we were in no hurry, we were just trying to enjoy our evening. Because of that I probably won't return, but it is a nice place for a date.

This is my first time at this establishment when we arrived, we were greeted right away. We were seated in the little wine room with a round table. When everyone was seated, they took the drink orders and brought over a Buffet wheel of bread. They had many selections to choose from my favorites were the onion bread and the sourdough bread. On the table, they had olive oil with a balsamic vinegar that had some herbs in it, and a little spice and roasted garlic. We were handed menus and given the specials of the day. We started with Calamari and Mussels, the Calamari was crispy and tender and the Mussels had good flavor but were tiny and a little overcooked. I decided to order the seafood pasta tossed in an olive oil and garlic sauce. There was a variety of seafood in the dish, mussels, clams, shrimp, scallops, calamari, and fish. All I can say, is, delicious. Service was very attentive and accommodating. They have a variety of desserts. I decided to pass on dessert and ordered coffee. The coffee was smooth and flavorful. I also enjoyed the piano music they had playing in the background . Overall, this was a really good experience. Would definitely come back. I gave a five because the service was really good.

From the live piano music to the giant selection of Italian breads and roasted garlic spread, this restaurant blew me away in quality and quantity before we even ordered an entree. My group had originally planned to eat elsewhere, but when that place was closed, Sorrento came up on the nearby recommendations and we were so impressed. The staff were friendly-even when we were a bit under dressed-kept the water glasses full, and gave wonderful recommendations for the menu. The noodles are freshly made and the white sauce was the best I have ever tasted on fettuccine. My friend got the lasagna and you could tell everything it was made with was fresh and high quality. I can't wait to come back for a nice birthday dinner or celebration.

The truffle mushroom risotto is our fave but the portion has gone down tremendously! It's a 1/4 the size from our first visit and 1/2 from our last visit. The unlimited bread option still is top notch. We tried something new this time: the mussels. I wouldn't recommend it unless you like seafood. The tomato basil flavor is nice but the mussels tasted like the ocean still.. it is a very romantic atmosphere with a live piano playing, which is perfect for date night.

We are originally from Dallas and we're looking for some authentic Italian food. We didn't know what to expect and were not really dressed for a five-star restaurant. We ask the owners and they welcomed us and said it was not a problem that we were in our workout attire. They sat us and welcomed us and even said hi to our children extremely friendly ownership and staff. Also the food was delicious and the ambiance was great there was a piano player that took requests and he played many kids songs for the kids! We will definitely be returning next time we are in Houston!

If you're looking for romantic ambiance, this is the place! The service was impeccable but the food was underwhelming for me! I would go back simply for the ambiance and to try some of their other dishes though. They have a person playing the piano the entire time which I loved.

I went here during Houston restaurant week for lunch. I had the lasagna and a Caesar salad. Unfortunately, it wasn't the best lasagna I've ever had, but it was worth a try. The service was great though.

This place is doing everything right. We dropped in for the first time for a date night recently and the excellent service starts at the door. The staff couldn't be more attentive and the food follows right behind it. Everything was amazing, the bread, the wine and the ravioli. Chefs kiss. We will definitely be back.

If you are looking to have a date night with your significant other at an Italian restaurant, this is an ideal and fine suggestion. The ambience is romantic with dimmed lighting, there was an old school and upscale vibe to it, attentive and unpretentious service, the Entree of the Day was superb, and there was a live pianist on the night we visited! When pulling up to valet, I was a little displeased the attendant did not open my car door. I suppose I somewhat expected it since it was an high-end restaurant. Not the biggest deal but just wanted to make a note. When you enter, you arrive to a bar and to the left is the hostess stand. When we checked-in with our reservation, we were asked to wait for a few minutes. We decided to check out and sit at the bar. For two drinks, it was $32. There was a live pianist playing Christmas songs, which I loved and an added bonus to the night. Every white linen table was decorated with a small flower arrangement and candle. I appreciated these small touches. Upon being seated, we were quickly greeted with an array of complimentary bread of your choice and a plate of olive oil/basil and a roasted garlic bulb to dip the bread in. Our waitress was courteous and waited on us assiduously to ensure a satisfactory dining experience. Appetizers - We shared: -The Classic Escargot which I am usually a big lover of and it did not disappoint. -The Traditional Caesar Salad and it was your run-of-the-mill, basic caesar salad. Entrees - -I ordered the Entree of the Day and it was a seafood pasta with scallops, shrimp, squid, salmon, clams, and mussels accompanied with white sauce. (You have your pick of either white or red sauce.) I LOVED it and would order it again. I even dipped the complimentary bread into the white sauce, yum! -The second entree was the Pan Seared Wild Salmon and unfortunately the taste was lackluster, portion was comparatively little, and it was brought out lukewarm. I am uncertain if I would like another date night here, but if friends or family invited me to dine at Sorrento, I would most likely visit again.

11/10 This is the was the best experience I had in a long time. The bread from the bread board was perfectly crafted. As well, I've never tried such good risotto. The server was super kind and gave us a birthday to remember with the pianist playing with the servers as they sang. As well, the music definitely made this place go from a 10/10 to an 11/10 it was beautiful and expertly played making the restaurant almost perfect. Overall, would totally go again!

What a perfect way to dine on my day off this past Monday. It wasn't my first time at Sorrento's, BUT it was my first time experiencing the true fine dining. I used to come for family birthday's and only eat the Grilled Chicken Alfredo (which is delicious), but let me tell you I was missing out. My man took me on a date night and we had the such a great time. There was live piano to set the mood, we had a bottle of wine and started with the Tuscan Bean with Oxtail and Beef Broth. The oxtail was soft and the broth was similar to a white bean minestrone, but more delicate in flavor. The bread basket was fresh as usual, my favorite is the Focaccia with Red Onion and Rosemary. Be sure to break into the roasted garlic in the oil they serve on the table. For dinner, I had the Herb Crusted Tuna with Crab Meat, Lemon Risotto and Lemon Cream and he had the Seared Diver Sea Scallops with Arugula and Crabmeat Risotto-Saffron Sauce. My goodness they were both so delicious! The Lemon risotto had the perfect balance of citrus, the scallops were beautiful and so buttery. I'm a beginner on scallops, but so far I can say they were the best I've had. I feel like Chef Gordon Ramsay would have approved the scallops, they were cooked to perfection. Too good! We finished with the Classic Vanilla Bean Creme Brûlée with Fresh Berries. It's not your typical creme brûlée though, which is kinda why I am rating four stars. It has a hint of lemon...and if you aren't expecting it, it can catch you way off guard. I will say it was still very good and refreshing with the citrus, just slightly overpowered the creamy taste of the vanilla bean. Next time I think I'll try the Italian Bread Pudding with White Chocolate, Dry Cherries and Golden Raisins. Looking forward to more date nights and can't wait to try out the brunch!

I didn't care for this restaurant. It is not authentic Italian cuisine in my honest opinion. This is American food. There were no Italians on staff, if my memory serves me correct. I didn't care for the dated appearance/ decor. I felt very limited with the menu choices. I attended with 7 other guests for private dining in the small room. The service was poor, the waitstaff rushed us through dinner, they were rude and I did not appreciate that. The only thing I enjoyed about this restaurant was the bartender at the front, the pianist and the anchovies and Focaccia bread. I regret not ordering the crab cake but that is it.

I came here for my birthday. I booked the private wine room. The food here is delicious. Chicken Parm and fettucini alfredo were delicious and perfect. That was my birthday craving. I also had the midterrian salad and the crab cake as an appetizer. I enjoyed the food so much that I didn't get the photos. The food is a 5 star. The service is a 2 based on the server attitude in messing up someones food. The service did not meet my standards. The waiter seemed a bit moody and argumentative when he messed up one of my friend's order. Very unprofessional. Due to his poor response, the overall rating is 3.5. I think the service could have been better and the waiter could stand to have some training on customer service etiquette. The customer is always right and will take you far. In this case, she was right and approached him politely. The website said they close at 10 but I caught him trying to push is out of there at 9:30.

Came for lunch service here. Parking was a valet only situation. Interior is quaint, although slightly outdated and a little bit messy/ not modern. From the menu, Sorrento goes for the upscale Italian vibe, similar to a Damian's or Carraba's. Execution of the dishes were a little bit subpar and I definitely prefer the quality of higher end Italian elsewhere. All in all, not bad, but not mind blowing.

Beautiful ambiance w/piano music. I love piano! Not too loud for conversation. Waiter never hurried us & was friendly. Hubbie & I had diver scallops which were excellent. Sister had lasagna w/their homemade noodles. Thin noodles w/plenty meat sauce. She loved it. We also had a beet salad, a Caesar salad and a Caprese salad. All delicious! Ordered a lovely bottle of Pinot Grigio at a very reasonable price! Hubbie had key lime pie which was a REAL key lime pie. Not bright green!! Would definitely return. What a lovely evening in the wake of Beryl!!!

This restaurant has a great ambience and excellent service. We ordered the olive oil bread as an appetizer with a the bottle of wine. It was a great way to start the meal. We then chose to have the shrimp scampi appetizer turned into a meal with pasta. It was incredible. The flavors of the shrimp scampi were perfection, and the pasta tasted, homemade which was a great compliment to the scampi. This was enough for the two of us to share and then we were able to enjoy a dessert which we selected as the butter cake with a wonderful ice cream on top. Definitely recommend Sorrento's. The main challenge is deciding what you're going to eat as everything I've had is wonderful.

This is a lovely romantic option for Italian food in Houston. I came here on a Thursday evening with two friends and enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. We were seated immediately since it was a weekday. One of my friends arrived earlier and she couldn't get seated until the rest of the party arrived--keep that in kind if you're trying to have dinner with a larger group! As soon as we were seated we were greeted with the attentive service. One of the staff carried around a large platter of bread, from which we could choose among an assortment of breads which one(s) we would like to try. I had one anchovy bread and one focaccia. They gave us olive oil and caramelized garlic to eat with the bread. SO fresh and delish. As an appetizer I got the lobster bisque, which was creamy and rich. I really enjoyed this soup; I was worried I wouldn't have room for the entree! For my main course I got the Braised Veal Osso Bucco Ravioli, which came with a tomato-based sauce and freshly made ravioli. I enjoyed this dish and the unique flavors of the ravioli filling. There wasn't as much meat as I had expected, but that might have been a good thing because the portion is filling as-is. This is a very saucy dish, so if you like pastas to have less sauce you might want to pick a different item. The service was fantastic and it seems like a lovely date night spot with dim lights and live piano music. I really enjoyed the experience and plan to come back. Parking situation: valet or street

Pre dinner cocktail was the signature Sorrento, made with their own lemoncello and bubbles! A refreshing drink for a warm day! The food was very good. Plated well. Escargot was fresh and very clean. They have a very good bread variety to choose from. The table side risotto was delicious! I had lobster bisque that was tasty, with a nice amount of lobster in the bowl. My main course was butternut squash ravioli. It was tasty and included fresh tomatoes and zucchini. Dessert was cream brulee. They have a piano player who plays wonderful standards. This is a good place for a romantic dinner. You can carry on a quiet, intimate conversation I especially enjoyed that we could take our time to eat a beautiful meal. No one was trying to turn the table

Top notch from beginning to end. Nice old style feel, where you know the people next to you in suits probably make $1 million+ a year, yet inexplicably the loud- mtalking foul-mouthed man beside you and his girlfriend with a stocking cap on still somehow felt comfortable here (I was very grateful when they left so I could actually hear my friend talking). The service was impeccable. There was never a moment when I had an empty glass or a missing piece of silverware. They start out with a gigantic tray of bread options, all of which looked delicious. On the table is an entire roasted garlic atop a pillow of olive oil and basil. We started out with foie gras because I've never had it before. I have to say that while it was decent, I don't really get what the big fuss is about. For $19, I definitely would've preferred something else. However the presentation and accompanying poached pear and sauce was lovely, and if people really like it, I imagine that it's a great choice. Next was lobster bisque and the fig prosciutto arugula salad. Both were great, although I always prefer more lobster than most will put in there, and the lobster was slightly overdone but still really good flavor. Salad was delicious. We were going to have pasta and second, but wisely thought we might be too full if we wanted to have dessert, so we went right to the diver scallops. They were perfectly done, and the risotto with them was divine. I only wish they were about 25% bigger for the price. We ended with the chocolate cake with gelato, and the waiter kindly split it in half for us, so we each had a nice perfect portion to end with. The wine list by the glass was a little boring, but all good choices and affordably priced. I took away a star for some of the critiques I had of the food, but the ambience is excellent as is the service. I would definitely recommend trying it out.

We went for Valentine's Day. I chose the restaurant based on the excellent reviews I saw. Strengths: The ambiance was very intimate. There was a live band and low lighting. The waitress mentioned the pianist plays daily from 7-10 pm. All of the staff were very professional. The valet parked my car in the very front. Our waitress was excellent and vigilant. Weaknesses: There was a prix fixe menu for $115 a person that includes one appetizer, entree, and dessert. Overall, the food was good, but not stellar. The lobster bisque had good flavors, but the texture as little thin. On special occasions, I like to order veal. The osso buco veal was extremely bland. The $3 beef empanadas I ate earlier that day had a better flavor profile. My date enjoyed her food, but barely finished half her plate. In summary, it is a nice establishment with romantic vibes, but the quality of the food isn't a good value for the prices.

I'm so happy with our whole experience here. We chose to eat here for our wedding anniversary and I'm so happy we did. The service was spectacular! Even the valet was awesome they captured amazing photos of my husband and I when we asked. They have good size dishes and many different food options. Their fresh baked bread makes its way around the restaurant, they have so many varsities to choose from. They do provide a delicious infused oil for a dipping which makes a good starter. Our server was a sweet heart and knew the menu well. I was asked if I wanted to add any meat to my dish which was nice as I didn't know that was an option on the menu. Food came out quickly which I liked too. They sat us in an intimate spot and we could hear the live piano playing which was nice too. I would love to go back and try something else on their menu. They provided a yummy slice of tiramisu on the house for my hubby and I to celebrate our anniversary and I thought this was really thoughtful and spoke volumes about the service at the restaurant. I was very happy and very satisfied with my first time here. They do have valet parking but we found side street parking which there was plenty of.

Had the most absolutely BEST dinner for my husband's birthday! We were seated privately and enjoyed the tasting menu with the wine pairing. Excellent all around! Our server was gracious and knowledgeable, so kind and sweet! I cannot remember his name, I'm ashamed to admit! But I'd sure recognize him as soon as I come again! Prices are very reasonable and this place has been here for so long, get over here and support local establishments, especially during these trying times!

Quite simply the best HRW available for lunch. You get so much delicious food at an incredible deal WITH excellent service too. They first serve you complimentary bread with a generous amount of garlic oil for you to dip in. Garlic is slow-cooked in the oil or confit'ed or something, idk, but what I do know is that it's hella delicious. Appetizer was the ravioli. Cooked al dente, quite light. Salmon was cooked perfectly (light pink inside) and the carbs on it were sizable and really, everything on the dish was delicious. Tiramisu itself wasn't as strong as I would've liked it to be, but was still delicious overall. All dishes were just well done. Nothing spectacular, but still very good, especially for this deal. Waters were consistently filled and our waiter in general was patient and helpful and kind to us. We parked on the side street directly next to the restaurant and avoided having to valet. 10/10 HRW, 8/10 otherwise. Would definitely come again next year.

Wife and I dined here in mid-January on a Saturday night. Place is classy, busy, and appeared to be the place to be that night. Luckily, we were seated on the side room where it was quieter. Service from Raoul and team could not have been better, everyone was very attentive and professional. Good menu options. Food quality was good overall, but portions were a little small for the price. We shared one glass of wine, no appetizer, one salad, one soup, two entrees, and had a dessert on the house as it was our 36th anniversary, and our bill was $170 with tip. Maybe that's the new norm in Houston for classy places...

Staff is amazing and so is food. A bit pricey for portions and parking is pretty much valet only. I personally suggest sitting at the bar and ordering apps. Their bread plate is amazing and comes with a head of roasted garlic, really good and scares off vampires for several days.

This place was amazing. Went for my birthday and it did not disappoint. Beautiful atmosphere, piano player. Food was amazing! Loved it. Went on my birthday so I felt extra special. My boys got the piano player to play happy birthday for me. They sang to me and brought me a tiramisu. Ordered the mushroom risotto carved table side and mushroom ravioli. Everything was so delicious. We all loved our food so much and can't wait to go back. Service was amazing as well

My friends took me here to celebrate my birthday. The atmosphere was very romantic with a pianist playing and dark lightening. I felt like I was going to be proposed too;) The service was amazing and everyone was so attentive. The food was good I had the mushroom ravioli and arugula goat salad. But the real stand out is the service and ambiance. The staff all came over and the pianist played happy birthday while they sang. They made you feel very special!
