Sorrento Pizza & Restaurant 5146 Broadway, San Antonio, TX 78209

"Great food and service was excellent! Very loud and inside needs some updating. They have these pesky lights hanging at seat level that I kept bumping my elbow on."

"Fantastic pasta and pizza in a cozy restaurant with excellent service! Definitely one of the top three places in the city for delicious Italian food! I will definitely be back to try more of it. We went to try the tiramisu as well but unfortunately it was out on our visit, so if that’s what you are going for you might check ahead!"

"We waited about 15 minutes for a table that was open and we could clearly see was open, that was odd. The food was AMAZING. The marinara is very good, the fried mozzarella was good, the fried ravioli was very good. The Stromboli though, AMAZING!!!!! It was massive and so tasty! I'd definitely go back just for that and share it with someone. The service wasn't great, we had 3 different people helping us, again, odd. But I had fun with my friends and the food was amazing! Oh the bread they give you before the meal, ordinary... and why give us butter in littler plastic packages? They should really give oil and herbs like most Italian restaurants. Very average."

"Walking in I was impressed with the atmosphere....Reminded me of the kind of place you find in Little Italy NYC. It was pretty busy for a Tuesday evening and there were a lot of people picking up to go so it is definitely a popular spot. The waiter was attentive and took our order promptly. We decided on a pizza with pepperoni and some veggies. It took about 30 minutes for the pizza to arrive at our table. It was piping hot, looked and smelled delicious. The toppings and the cheese were first rate. The big disappointment was the crust. It was mostly soft and very gummy except the outer edge. I can only imagine how bad it would have been if we had not dined in. Being totally honest I have had Pizza with better crust from Little Caesars hot and ready box. We might try this place again but would definitely try another entree."

"A legit Italian experience has been hard to come by in the city until we stumbled across Sorrento. The interior is a bit on the smaller side with a nice vibe and cozy setting. We chose to skip the appetizers and went straight for the entrees. The alfredo, lasagna Della casa, carbonara and the alio e olio were our picks. The alfredo was perfectly al dente, with not an overabundance of sauce. There was basil inside the dish, which was unexpected and some would say unauthentic but it actually complimented the dish. The lasagna was well presented and quite tasty, I'm not a huge fan of the dish normally, but I welcome it here. The tomato sauce was the star. Next, was the alio e olio. It was great, once again, perfectly al dente pasta with olive oil, pepper and roasted garlic slices. Lastly, we tried the carbonara. This restaurant uses bacon inside the dish, when it traditionally uses pancetta/guanciale. There is also only parmesan cheese used instead of pecorino cheese. This is another dish that can be very controversial to some, but it is done well here. It was creamy and had a good flavor and the bacon wasn't overbearing. Yes, I would of preferred a different protein other than the bacon, but this is likely the best substitute for the restaurant. Overall, a great experience and the portion sizes are perfect for the price. We didn't even have room for dessert! It's always admirable when locals have some skin in the restaurant game and do it well. If you are a fan of pasta and Italian cuisine, I highly recommend you give them a go. 4.7/5"
