    Daily Special Burrata Insalata
    Jessica M.

    A beautiful family-owned Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Markham! I've been here twice now and both times were pleasant surprises. They have a menu featuring pizza, pasta, and risotto, as well as their most famous seafood platter for the table. They also have an extensive separate menu full of daily specials which I love. On my most recent visit, my group of 6 ordered the following: - Daily Special Insalata: An assortment of deli meats with peaches, cucumbers, and burrata. This was an alright appetizer to share but I think I might choose something else next time like a caprese. 7/10 - Diavola Pizza: Spicy in the best way, but paled in comparison to the daily special (see below). 8/10 - Daily Special Pizza: White sauce pizza with prosciutto, fior di latte, and figs, topped with some alfalfa sprouts for garnish. First of all, this pizza was PRETTY. It also tasted spectacular, the saltiness of the prosciutto and the sweetness of the figs paired so well! I wish it was on the regular menu, I'd probably order it all the time. 10/10 - Seafood mixed board: The star of the show. Board including calamari, chicken, steak, tuna, shrimp, octopus, broccoli, carrots, and fries. The first time I was here I found it quite salty but this time around it was better. I find the fries and vegetables a little lacklustre but my favourite is the octopus and steak. 8/10 This is the perfect place to go after a night at the movies or if you're in the area!

    First time here and it turned out pretty good. The service was good. I liked the decor of the place very modern. Of course you have to do the pasta at an Italian restaurant. I got the mushroom truffle fettuccine. It was good. A little more sauce would've been good. We had the beet salad which was also decent. And my friend got the clams and white wine sauce which she enjoyed. I was very impressed with their dessert menu!! So many items!! I gotta comeback for that

    1/5 bad service by the middle-aged white lady with braided hair in uniform. 4/5 overall service 4/5 food We're repeated patrons. I failed to make phone reservations for dinner tonight, when I called their number & prompted to talk to someone, the line got cut many times, so we had to walk in. There was a middle-aged white lady in uniform with braided hair who responded rudely by saying their phone kept ringing all day and didn't understand why I got cut out, I told I could show her my phone record. I don't understand why she could be so rude, do I have to make up story for dinner!!!! As a server or waitress or floor manager, she needs basic demeanour to treat their customers, otherwise please stay out of dining floor. We ended up seating in the patio which was not bad. Other young server was good and apologetic when I shared by phone reservation experience. Food wise, the bread on basket was cold, the pizza was a bit salty, otherwise all other foods were fresh and delicious. We recommend this restaurant but service could be better!

    Just tried this place on the weekend and the food is really good! Their pizza texture is true to Italian pizza and their pasta is also delicious! Located in the heart of downtown Markham. staff are friendly, they are also family/baby friendly. Can accommodate big groups as the restaurant is quite spacious. Love their decor, ambience and the space! Perfect for lunch and dinner. They have daily special for soup risotto and entrees. I will be back esp since I eyed their meal board for 2-3 that I want to try next time.

    Enjoyed my dinner here. The food was amazing. Had the meat board. Steak and lamb were done as ordered. Service was excellent. Staff were on point. Atmosphere was buzzing and happening. This restaurant is family friendly but on the upper side. Great selection of wine and food for all types. Highly recommend.

    Patio. Dog friendly. I'm assuming although I didn't feel welcomed.

    ..."to be an inviting, family-style restaurant, offering excellent hospitality with a splash of Italian fine dining." I think this statement really stands out and not in a good way because I did not feel welcomed at all. I approached the door and Marc, which I found out was the manager on duty was there and I asked if I could sit on the patio with my dog. He ignored me and walked inside. I was completely confused and went inside to ask and again he looked at me and ignored me. Am I not allowed because I have a dog? No problem. I could leave, even through there was another patron on the patio with a dog. Is it because I'm Indian? I don't know. Not very welcoming. My server, Samantha was lovely. Attentive and I really appreciated her and her service while I was there. I did tip her well because she should not be blamed for a manager who does not know how to welcome people. I ordered the Pennoni Con Ragu Napoletano, Ricotta Salata. It came out quickly and was cold and the pasta was more than al dente. It was hard. I opted to just have dessert and water. I think my first impression when entering turned me off the whole dining experience. I tried to make the best of it but the food being cold and hard pasta was just disappointing. My server, Samatha again, was extremely kind and voided the meal. I ordered a tiramisu and a cappuccino. I was hungry and wanted something to enjoy while watching the Canada Day festivities at downtown Markham. The tiramisu was delish, except for the random addition of rum soaked raisins and the cappuccino was on point! No complaints at all about dessert. Overall, my impression when I first entered was just a turnoff and I will never revisit. If you are having a bad day, stressed. I get that but maybe don't take your frustrations out on customers. It was just upsetting and I really didn't feel like I was welcomed at the restaurant. The server, she was amazing. They are lucky to have her because I probably would have walked out if it wasn't for her. I tipped her well. She really deserved it!

    The service was top-notch, with the staff being super friendly and attentive. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and took the time to guide us through the selection process, ensuring that every dish was tailored to our preferences. The ambiance was nice as well, with cozy lighting and a welcoming atmosphere. Their menu reflects a dedication to quality and flavour. I ordered the fettuccine with mushrooms and the penne in rose sauce. The fettuccine was cooked perfectly al dente, and the mushroom sauce was rich and flavorful. The penne in rose sauce was creamy and had just the right amount of tanginess from the tomatoes.

    Costa Sorrento is my first choice in Markham whenever I have craving for authentic Italian food. Conveniently located in Downtown Markham with plenty of parking! I had been here numerous of time. Every visit was memorable: from the food to the service. Wine by the glass and cocktails are reasonably priced. My dinner mate always ended up ordering the Seafood Linguine and I always try to order something different every visit and never been disappointed. I love how they always have a "daily" special menu. The items are seasonals and make me want to try something new and different. Highly recommended if you want to have a taste of Italy in Markham.

    We've been wanting to visit Costa sorrento for a while! We hear good things about their fresh pastas and they certainly did not disappoint! The interior is nice and cozy. We'd recommend getting their seafood with rose sauce pasta - that one was delish! In addition to their brussel sprouts with octopus. We celebrated my birthday there - and got the tiramisu. It was hilarious because a robot brought the cake out and it sang happy birthday hahaha Service was great - our servers were very attentive. Would come back to try their pizzas!

    I went here two nights in a row. It was that good. Everything on the menu was so good and came out of the kitchen quickly. You will not be disappointed.

    Grilled Adriatic sea bass

    One of the things I love most about Mediterranean cuisine is their rustic dishes that don't require much fuss. This place balances modern food presentation with the dishes that I would imagine can be found in Italy. I mean, you know it's legit when they serve you the whole fish and not just a filet. My only criticism is that I did find some of the dishes to be a bit overpriced.

    Adriatic Sea Bass
    Sylvio L.

    We came to dinner at this restaurant with a large group, for a company function to celebrate an important event. The decor, lighting and interior design look prestigious with a nice display of the bar. Music was not too loud. Great first impression. Right off the bat, my level of expectations has set a bar that everything else is now measured against. Service was comparable to that of a hotel when you check-in. What can I do for you instead of - I know why you are here and I want to take you on a fine dining experience that I want you to remember. Is mediocre customer service the new standard? Don't get me wrong. Service was not particularly bad, but remember the bar that I set? I am using the opinion of my colleagues to blend in mine to produce a weighted average for this rating. Food was good generally. This is Italian cuisine and I like their website statement "We bring the flavours of Italy right to your table". I am no Italian food critic but I take comments from colleagues of Italian roots, who know one or two things about Italian fine cuisine. Restaurant is trying hard to deliver authentic Italian dishes. I love the fish which was a whole grilled Adriatic sea bass, the taste, the way most of the spines were removed and how it was presented. I also like the ricotta pear cake - delicious although the ricotta should have been more fluffy. A review is not entirely complete if the washroom has not been inspected. I went in one of the three unisex washrooms which I hope is representative of all the washrooms. Not too bad, relatively clean, but slightly disappointed not seeing a washroom that would give me that level of confidence of sanitization. Apart from the auto faucet and the Dyson Airblade hand dryer which is a great start, some touchfree washroom product automation would have been nice to see.

    Recommended by my boss and colleagues, but I found it a bit pricey with the quality of food. Food and presentation are not impressive at all. The highlight is the raisin with rum in the dessert LOL Don't think I will return ....

I have to say they're are a little cheap as it was my birthday I thought they would give the dessert for free but they charged for the dessert it's all good, let's start of with the calamari, really crispy and tender in the inside expensive like crazy, for entree we ordered rigatoni vodka, papperdalle funghi, and chicken Parmesan, the rigatoni vodka was out of this world, very creamy pasta was cooked al dente and they make fresh pasta here, that's a first, the vodka sauce tasted delicious had a rich tomatoe flavor but super creamy, the papperdalle funghi tasted amazing as well and the chicken Parmesan tasted amazing a billion times better than Sugo. The service was excellent, the waiter was attentive, and the ambiance just seemed a bit claustrophobic as there wasn't much space in the restaurant, if you want to eat here for dinner it is highly recommended to reserve online. Just if it's your birthday don't expect anything for free I forgot to Mention the chocolate cream pie probably one of the best desserts I have ever tasted the filling was so creamy and had the right amount of sweetness and the crust was perfect.

Most of the restaurant is quite tight and close, but the bar area is probably the most snug. It wasn't too busy when we sat down, so service was fast; even when it got busy we had no problem getting the attention of a waiter/waitress to get what we needed. Calamari - One of the top calamari batter I've ever had. The batter was fluffy and still crispy, the perfect compliment to a nice chewy calamari. Wished the calamari was a little thicker to give it more of a chew and a bit more seasoned. Fried peppers were a nice touch! would get again. Sofia Mia Pizza - This was an absolutely amazing pizza. Crust was not the best but the toppings stole the show. Normally I don't like goat cheese, but that was balanced by the fruitiness of the fig and the balsamic reduction. The prosciutto brought on some meaty flavours while being balanced by the caramelized onion and arugula. Would come back again for this. Cheese wheel pasta - some mushroom pasta - A bit of a gimmick in my opinion, but it was a fun experience. The head chef comes by and does the final touches of the pasta in the cheese wheel. The pasta itself was a bit lacklustre for me. It lacked flavours compared to a saucier pasta, probably because they wanted the parmigiano cheese more forward. Nice to try, but would not get again.

Thankfully, it wasn't too chilly, and since foot traffic was minimal, the door stayed closed for most of our visit. When we arrived, there was only one other table of two enjoying coffee. The space itself is quite small, which isn't what you'd typically expect from an Italian spot. They do have patio seating, but it's not really suitable for this time of year.

Our waitress was very friendly, and what appeared to be the manager also stopped by to thank us for coming. For food, we shared the sausage pizza. It's meant to be personal-sized, but we were pretty hungry. The flavors were solid, and the pizza wasn't too heavy. The crust was nicely crispy yet chewy, and the toppings were well balanced, not too much, not too little. We also noticed their pastry display; the apple muffin in particular looked tempting, though we didn't try it this time. Definitely something to come back for.

Several other staff members helped him out with serving and cleaning out empty plates. Overall we had a wonderful dinner together here.
