It is a concept of casual intimacy and communal romance. Sotto is the art of simplicity, a steward of restraint. It’s undressed, gutsy and human. It is fire, meat, wheat, and laughter. Above all, Sotto is Italian.


Now Open for Lunch Service Monday - Friday, 11am - 2pm

    One of the best meals I think we have ever had! The pasta dishes were amazing, I’ll dream about the gnocchi forever and the ricotta donuts are a must!

    Great food, cocktails and vibes. We’ve now been for lunch and dinner and it’s been great for both. Way more chill at lunch and more busy at dinner and we enjoyed both atmospheres. Servings aren’t huge so plan on 2-3 items per person. Party of two had an app, two salads, cocktails and two pastas and we weren’t stuffed but very satisfied.

    Our reservation was at 7:45 and we were seated right away. Our server was very nice but we were rushed through our dinner. Before we were even half way finished - she was trying to clear our plates basically saying how she wanted to leave because it was a Sunday night. Food was delish as always. Had an issue with drinks. My first drink was correct but when they brought the second it was made entirely wrong. They quickly replaced it. A little disappointed overall this time around.

    Sotto never dissapoints and the service is 2nd to none. Edison was an excellent server and people like her keep us coming back because no matter how great the food is, which it is at sotto, it's the people that make the difference!
