    We love these guys fresh made pasta's and they're always a fixture at the South Saturday Farmers…read moreMarket at O'Malley and Old Seward Hwy. Today we got a special treat, they had their Gluten Free Shell pasta so we picked up 3 Lbs. It's not always there. When it is SCORE! We make with both their Lemon Pappardelle and GF Shells a creamy mushroom prosciutto pasta dish! These folks make pasta for so many Resturants here in town like Orso's, 49th State Brewing Co., Campobello Bistro, Sweet Basil's Cafe, Suite 100, Glacier Brewhouse, Kinley's Grill, Talkeetna AK Lodge, Pangea, Spenard Roadhouse, Jen's and Crush just to name a few! We love their Lemon Pepper Pappardelle and their GF Shells Leila absolutely loves! Their fresh pasta's are absolutely fantastic and cook unlike hard dry pastas in just 2-3 minutes. Fresh makes the biggest difference in the pasta world so go by the Saturday Market and get the Freshest Pasta from the Co. that makes it for so many local Restaurants in Alaska! They're also at the Wednesday Market close to the Airport. Of course they have their brick and mortar location too!

    We always pick up some pasta (if they have any left!) at the farmers market. So delicious, even…read morejust the cheese ravioli has ruined other, store-bought ravioli, and I'm not mad! The cheese blend is to die for! Totally recommend for super fresh and delicious pasta. The freshness really does make a difference in taste and texture!

For me, coming here in the future my place will be at the bar with appetizers. Bar environment is 5/5 As far as the rest goes I think the food is good, not spectacular. 3/5. In the future I think I'd come for an appetizer and a couple of drinks and that's it. I felt the veal was tough on both ordered plates and potentially I would have preferred chicken. That being said the sauce was great. The grappa sauce had amazing flavor and the Marsala sauce also had great flavor. Plus the funghi appetizer was great with the bread. All of it was enjoyable enough for a return visit. This spot has very friendly staff, they move at a classic Alaska pace. Meant for sitting down and enjoying the company of someone you're eating with but not designed for getting in and out the door quickly. Come with the intention to get things as they come and enjoy the ride.

    This place has Amazing food. Incredibly Authentic Italian food. It's really flavorful. The Lasagna…read morewas rich with flavor and meaty cheeses. My mouth is watering as I write this review! The Seafood Fettuccine was also rich and creamy smooth flavor and texture. We will return here to eat again and again. If you're craving Italian - Do Not go anywhere else! You will not regret this place.

    Sorrento's has been an Anchorage staple for 52 years, but apparently they only started serving…read morelunch a few months ago -- and I'm really glad I wandered in. I was looking for a quiet place to eat good food, have a beer, and zone out for a minute. Sorrento's at lunch is the spot.I happened to be the only dine-in customer, so I basically got first-class service, which I have a feeling happens no matter how busy they are. The place is clean and a little dated, but in the absolute best, nostalgic way. It feels like an old-school neighborhood restaurant that has earned the right not to reinvent itself every five years. No trendy gimmicks, no loud music, no rush -- just a comfortable place to take a load off in the middle of a busy day and actually enjoy lunch. And the food fit the place perfectly: simple, quick and flavorful. Not a lot of frills, but that's the thing about consistent, old-school eateries -- they don't need them. I had the lamb gyro with a fresh salad, and it was exactly what I wanted. Fresh, satisfying and just plain good. This was my first time at Sorrento's, which seems almost ridiculous considering how long they've been part of Anchorage. Now that I've discovered lunch, I guess the next order of business is coming back hungry and tackling a big pasta dinner. Great food, great service, cold beer, zero pretension. Perfect. Try it for lunch!

    While we were in Anchorage, Sorrentos came up as a suggestion for an Italian restaurant to go to…read moreand the ratings were extremely good (4-5) so being a seasoned yelper, writing many reviews, I wanted to give Sorrentos a try. The restaurant has a nice set up with tables a booth's. We were a party of 4and our server was Marylou. Marylou s great handling our table making suggestions and with her timing of our food. We ordered fried calamari appetizer which was good. It wasn't a large dish and there were no Calamari "rings" on our plate, only strips which was a little surprising, but we enjoyed them. We also each got a nice salad before our dinners. I ordered the Ceaser salad which was delicious. I asked Marylou for a small (3) amount of anchovies to put on the salad. She came with a dish with I guess a can full of them. Not her fault, she stated that she had to make it a side order do that was hire it was done. No problem, I love anchovies and since they were there, I was not going to let them go to waste!!! lol! Dinner then was broght to the table, here is where the review is lowered to 3 stars. My wife and friends ordered this chicken dish (sorry don't recall the name, I think it was Marsala) and it was delicious and a nice serving. My friend also got the chicken parm which he enjoyed. However, my order was nothing like I was expecting. When I go to an Italian restaurant, I usually order Veal Parmigiana. This is my go to favorite. When my veal arrived, it looked totally not what I was expecting. The menu says veal scallopini lightly breaded and fried. Scallopini is a thing cut of meat. What I got was 2 ground veal patties (like hamburger) covered in sauce and topped with cheese. I started to eat it and immediately safe that this was not veal cutlet (scallopini) and ground veal. For the price I was paying, I was not going to accept this so I sent the dish back. Marylou was so nice about it and took care of me without a problem. She was kind of surprised about the dish as well. She gave me reasons why it was served the way it was but I will not share them here. If the menu says Scallopini (cutlet) then that is what should be served. Don't change it up on the customer hoping to pass it off as a Veal Parmigiana dish. Maybe being from NY I have a different expectation about this but I don't think that is the case here. I ordered the lasagna instead which was ok. Again, our service was great and the food was good as well except for my dish and this is why I am giving them 3 stars, which I rarely give.
