  • Good for special occasions

  • Charming
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

    We enjoyed our visit and food, however the reservation said we would be at a high top for two, but we were at a communal table for 10 with people we didn't know. Everything else about the night was great.

    The cacio e pepe and the donuts are always amazing, they are a must try! Also, the chicken liver was delectable.

    The food was perfect. The service was slow and the vibe from the waitress wasn’t great, but it’s about the food and that was on point.

    First time joining for lunch! I wish it was a little brighter during the day, but not sure how that would be possible. Overall, the food was excellent. I got the limone pasta and it was okay, wish I got something else. There were wayyy too many pine nuts in that dish. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their food, however the men did state they wished the portions were a little bigger or had more chicken protein.
