    Black truffle mushroom pasta
    Keli T.

    This was a phenomenal dining experience. I was in town for a work event and did dinner with a friend while there. The service was great. The server made recommendations and was extremely attentive. The food was fantastic. I hate I didn't get pictures of my salad. The atmosphere was also amazing. I would definitely return.

    Saltimbocca, salmon

    Wow wow wow. Beautiful restaurant that makes a date night feel like a special occasion. Our reservation for 2 on Saturday night sat us at the corner seat of the bar which we loved. Service was exquisite, fast and friendly. To start, we ordered the tuna and the kitchen even split it into two personal portions for each of us! Tuna was delicious and fresh, with heavy wasabi flavor. For entrees, the salmon was perfectly cooked with a small mixture of veggies. The saltimbocca was phenomenal - veal was melt in your mouth with mashed potatoes that had so much flavor. Love this place, highly recommend if you're looking a special fancy night out.

    Dim lighting, white tablecloths and lovely china made for a beautiful setting, only dampened by the loud music that didn't fit the romantic vibe. The house made sourdough round was amazing. I could have eaten just that. But we also plowed through an entire order of truffle fries before a yummy, very garlicky Caesar salad. Unfortunately the salmon was rare instead of medium well as ordered. Having to send back one meal while the other person eats always dampens the dining experience. The salmon was served with a delicious eggplant dish. The other fish we had was served with a humongous dish of kale which was a bit strong tasting. The dishes were sufficiently spread out time wise. Overall a nice experience.

    Visited the first night while in Boston and could not have been more pleased with Sorellina. Upon entering the establishment, the decor is modern and striking. Low lighting and peaceful atmosphere. The service was good. The warm bread with salted butter melts in your mouth. The pasta made with bone marrow was very rich and filling. Large portions. Highly recommend for a special evening.

    Fabulous food, amazing staff paid attention to every detail, great table with beautiful bow window. We had a variety of salads, the buffalo mozzarella appetizer. Primo we had the meatball dish and the ravioli dish. Dinner plates were scallops and veal saltimbocca. Desserts were chocolate raspberry mousse and the chocolate lava cake with salted caramel gelato.

    Wow, I loved this place. Our server was outstanding. We (again) decided our brains were too fried to order. Even though they did not have a tasting menu our server put together a wonderful array of dishes and total tab was very reasonable given the amount of food, ambience, and quality of food. We had a total of 8 dishes and total came out under $300. We started with the tuna which was nicely seasoned with a kick, then went on to Al dente handmade pasta with zucchini (?) - very very good, I didn't want the meatball dish so our server subbed it was a truffle pasta with mushrooms - WOW loved this one! Sauce was rich and mushrooms were perfect topped with truffle oil, eggplant rollatini was a great addition, and halibut was cooked perfectly with sweet summer corn. Our favorite was the dessert, limone was not too tart or too sweet, the bombolini was incredible - Highly recommended. Great value, beautiful restaurant, and wonderful service!

    we sat at the bar last minute, kaitlyn was our bartender/server and was great. we started with bread and eggplant rolatini. i loved the eggplant rollatini. we ordered their maccheroncelli and cavatelli to split because we couldn't decide, and both preferred the cavatelli. bread 9/10 eggplant rollatini 9/10 maccheroncelli 8.5/10 cavatelli 10/10 came here again and thomas was our server through the majority of our meal, then maryann took over, they were both extremely hospitable and had perfect timing. i tried their petal pusher drink which was outside of my typical order and it was so delicious, i ordered 2 more! we started with bread, oysters, and lobster gnocchi. the lobster gnocchi was absolutely divine, perfect taste and texture. we ordered the ribeye, scallops, and mushrooms for a main course. ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection, look at pictures for reference. i loved the scallops, they were big and beautifully plated. mushrooms were good, asparagus was great, and for dessert, we ordered the gelato (chocolate, coffee, and pistachio). they surprised me with a chocolate happy birthday plating with candle. they made this dinner incredibly special and i highly recommend everything i ordered. raw oysters 9/10 lobster gnocchi 10/10 ribeye 10/10 scallops 10/10 mushrooms 8.5/10 gelato 10/10 petal pusher 10/10 whether you're looking for a special date night, intimate solo date, or a dining with a group, sorellina would be a perfect destination with their attention to detail, exemplary service, and everything is delicious. ambiance: 5/5 food: 5/5 drinks: 5/5 service: 5/5 sorellina: 5/5

    We had a great dinner at Sorellina! The restaurant has as great atmosphere - dimmed lighting, nice table settings, and not too loud. Our waitress was also spectacular. Attentive, informative, and super nice! For food - we tried the tuna appetizer first. It was amazing except for the Dijon spread at the bottom. I did not care for that part. We also tried the lobster gnocchi, and the filet mignon. The filet was amazing - highly recommend. The lobster was fun to try but I can't say I would recommend as your only dish. It has way too much butter in it so it's rich after a few bites. We split the gnocchi and filet between 2 of us and that worked better. The desserts were awesome too - we tried the tiramisu, chocolate cake and the donuts. We also tried the espresso martinis (it was a big night lol). The donuts and the martini were the winners but everything was very good! The pricing is high - as expected, given the caliber of the restaurant. Some of the portion sizes were smaller than I was expecting but overall the bill was in line with other high end steak houses. We will be back to try it again!

    Family dinner for six the weekend after Thanksgiving. The menu is varied ranging from seafood to salads to house made pasta to traditional plated entrees. The tuna tartare was amazing. Large, fresh with a bit of a kick. It was served with homemade crackers. Wow. I had two half portions of pasta as my entree. Loved that the pasta was house made and the sauces were non traditional. Truffle sauce, red wine based sauce- both delicious. Server was one of the best we have had in years. Dining room was active but not loud. Nice lighting.

    We had impeccable service. I think we had a waiter assigned just to our table because there were eight of us. After he gave us all menus. He went through the entire menu. I don't know how he remembered it all. They kept our glasses full so someone was always watching the table. I started with six oysters followed by a veal chop. The oysters had cucumber mignonette on them rather than cocktail sauce. The veal chop was nice and tender, medium rare just like I like it. We had kale and mushrooms as sides. We really did not need them with the size of the portions. There were high ceiling, curtains to keep down the noise. Perfect for conversation. The parking is non-existent. I took an Uber so I'm would not have to deal with a car.

    Came here for my birthday !The ambiance was nice and chill! The service was great waiter was able to assist when asked what was recommended. The drinks and food were yummy and appetizing.

    Beautiful spacious restaurant with high ceilings. There is also a large LED lit mural as the centerpiece. The space is also dimly lit and really give off an art gallery vibe. The complimentry bread is rather tasty. Crunchy crust and nice and soft in inside. The butter is a bit bland side, though. 3.5/5 Lobster bisque- Creamy and savory with a generous portion of lobster, which was nice and tender. Very good! 4.5/5 Octopus Large portion of thinly sliced octopus. It was slightly covercook but still a tasty dish. The squid ink on the lentils did not add any flavor, but looked nice. There was also a little spice kick to the dish that that complained it. 4/5 Scallops 5 giant diver scallops. Nice crust on outside sweet and tender on inside. Perfectly cooked. Came with a delicious truffle jam sauce. The prosciutto was a bit of a distraction texture was. It was slightly cooked . The crunchiness just seemed off with such a tender dish. Also, it is on the small size, so get a big appetizer. 4/5 LIMONE Creamy and smooth lemon curd that's not to sweet and not too sour. Topped with campati foam that adds a nice bitterness and buckthorn that's adds a bit of sweetness. A very tasty dish 5/5

    Lamb chops

    Our friend told us about this place so of course we had to try it since it was across the street from our hotel. We made a reservation just in case it was busy. We arrived on time and we were greeted right away by the hostess. We waited a few minutes before being seated. We ordered a nice bottle of red wine which price wise was really good. Our waiter brought us some hot bread that was delicious. We ordered the Kobe beef meatballs as an appetizer and they came out right away. They didn't look like your normal meatballs but once you sliced them up, they were delicious and the noodles with complimented them. No marinara sauce which was even better. Our entrees were the lamb chops and the Fettuccini with Black truffle sauce. The lamb was so tender, cooked perfect, and great flavor. The fettuccini had so much flavor with the truffle sauce and the noodles cooked perfect. The desert doughnuts were light and fluffy and delicious. Our waiter was nice and fantastic during our whole meal. The place is a really nice restaurant, but not to fancy. The prices are a little pricey but the service and the food is well worth it for one night.

    I had a reservation here and when I arrived there would be a short wait for inside or outside…read more(which was kind of cool that night) or immidately at the bar. Okay, for a solo adventure I chose the bar and yes, they took me to a seat there. Looking at the menu I knew it was tapas style going in but before I could really start looking at anything the bar tender said, "or, there's a chef tasting." Okay, stop there, let's just do that and add the meat and fish option. To start was the Strawberry Fattoush - Little Gems, Cucumber, Pomegranate Vinaigrette, Pita Chips, Sumac - amazing. Next was the Warm Buttered Hummus - Basturma, Tomato, Black Olive. Still doing great! Then the Fried Mussels - Hot Peppers, Turkish Almond Tarator Sauce. Can't say I have ever had those before! The Spinach Falafel - Tahini, Beet Tzatziki, Pickles was next. Though you could roll it up, eating it that way was pointless. Back to the knife and fork. After that was the Grilled Asparagus - Sorrel Aioli, Puffed Black Rice, Bergamot Honey. Probably the most familiar looking dish of the night. Then the Sultan's Delight - Tamarind Beef, Smoky Eggplant Purée, Basil. Aamazing! Still going after that was the Swordfish - Nettle Freekah, Red Pepper Tahini, Buttermilk Fried Fiddle Heads. Then finally the Turkish-Style Profiteroles - Brown Butter Crème, Sesame Caramel Cashews, Halva with something else on the side. All of this with a Shepherds Pilsner which I believe is my first brew from Palestine. Who knew that was possible? Needless to say, the meal was quite an adventure. Definitely worth it. All amazing as was the service at the bar!

    Oh, Oleana! Tucked…read moreaway in Cambridge, Oleana is a cozy Mediterranean restaurant serving small plates. My partner and I managed to snag a last-minute reservation on a Tuesday night, and even at 9 p.m. the restaurant was still lively. Between the beautiful decor and warm atmosphere, it made for a great date night spot, though it was admittedly a bit dim (apologies in advance for the photo quality!) Between the two of us, we ended up ordering quite a few dishes: Whipped Feta (4/5): This was good, though I was hoping for a stronger roasted pepper flavor. Nothing wrong with it, but it didn't quite stand out. Interestingly, we overheard the table next to us mention the same thing, so maybe this one's a bit hit or miss. Spinach Falafel (4/5): Another solid dish. It was bright, colorful, and fresh, though a little messy to eat. Our waiter rather bluntly told us to "just wrap it and bite," which caught us a little off guard, but it was good nonetheless. Fatteh (4.5/5): Our favorite appetizer of the night. The creamy roasted cauliflower paired so well with the crispy pita, and I especially loved the sweetness the onions brought to the dish. Sultan's Delight (5/5): As everyone else says, this is the one to order. The beef was incredibly tender and rich. In hindsight, I almost wish we'd had the potatoes from the Adana Kebab to eat alongside it because they would've been the perfect accompaniment. Vermont Quail Kebab (5/5): Tied with the Sultan's Delight as our favorite entrée. The quail was juicy, well-spiced, and surprisingly easy to eat. I'd absolutely order this again. Adana Kebab (4/5): By this point, I think we were simply getting full. The kebab itself was good, but not nearly as memorable as the other meat dishes. Ironically, the potatoes and peppers that came with it might have been my favorite part--they would've paired perfectly with the Sultan's Delight. Baked Alaska (4.5/5): Delicious. The toasted meringue paired wonderfully with the coconut ice cream, though we were a little mixed on the passionfruit caramel, which came across slightly burnt and more acidic than expected. After a while the meringue did become quite sweet, so we ended up pairing some with the Muhallebi. Dark Chocolate Muhallebi (3.5/5): Yes...we ordered two desserts. I was mostly drawn in by the kaymak ice cream, but the Muhallebi itself was almost completely unsweetened. I'm usually all for desserts that aren't overly sweet, but this one leaned more savory than I expected. We actually ended up adding some leftover meringue from the Baked Alaska to balance it out. Looking back, given both our appetites (and our wallets), I think we would've been perfectly happy just ordering the Baked Alaska. Overall, Oleana was a lovely spot for a date night. While it didn't quite live up to the lofty expectations I'd built up from all the praise, we still had a really enjoyable meal. Our main waiter was kind, and I appreciated that the dishes came out in rounds, giving us plenty of time to eat and chat. The meat dishes were definitely the highlights for us, but overall there's a lot to like here.
