Out visiting friends and doing a little wine tasting in Fairfax and of course, I had to stop at my favorite Italian restaurant. This place has been around for years and never disappoints. It's hands down the best Italian food in Fairfax. The food is always spot on, the service feels like family, and there's just something comforting about coming back to a place that's been consistently great for so long. Definitely my go-to whenever I'm in town. read more

Holy Happy Hour! Sorella is a cozy Italian restaurant tucked back from the main street in Fairfax. There's street parking and several parking lots in the area to choose from. There's a big banner out front announcing happy hour every day. We were there for some holiday shopping and thought we could grab some snacks. We walked in around 5 pm and the tables were mostly full. We were given a table immediately. All beer is $5 (no draft), bites are $10, and a few $8 wine by the glass. We ordered and the food came out hot and fast. Kudos to the kitchen for keeping up on a busy Saturday. Most were ordering from the main menu. Everything that came out of the kitchen looked delicious. Food: all from the happy hour menu. *gnocchi was fluffy and a decent portion. *calamari was crisp and loved the marinara it came with. *capese had three thick slices of tomato blanketed with a pillow of mozzarella and basil tucked in for the course. Everything was dressed with balsamic and olive oil. *crab cake was stellar and is not to be missed. It was crispy outside and smooth inside with perfectly cut red onions distributed in each bite. A bright fresh mango salsa topped the cake for a sweet kiss. Yeah, the food is great and I'll be back for dinner. This is a family friendly spot and if you're a picky eater, they will make your food the way you want to eat it. I love the vibe and care shown to everyone. Chef's kiss! Note: tables are packed tight and the restrooms are located on the opposite side of the entrance, in a narrow hallway. read more

Excellent wait staff and over all one of our favorite dinner spots in marin! Sonya, Soy and everyone at Sorellas, thank you for another fantastic dinner! See you next time :) read more

I had an I had an amazing experience here! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is super cozy and traditional. We started with a shared Caesar salad, which was absolutely delicious. For my main, I had the eggplant Parmesan, and it was phenomenal! They even bring out a large bowl of Parmesan to top off your dish. At the end, they surprised us with gummy bears and animal crackers, which was such a fun touch. As a bonus, they also brought us fried polenta on the house - so tasty! I was with a group of 13, and everyone loved their meals. I don't think you can go wrong here. Our server was fantastic, and everyone was incredibly friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Super kid friendly, great happy hour. They don't take reservations, but dinner time is pretty fast as kitchen works fast and food and drink comes out promptly. Food itself is pretty decent, big portions and seasoned nicely. Environment is lively, seemed like there was almost a child at every table, and staff and owners are very welcoming to this. Across the street is Peri Park, so great spot for families with kids to come over before or after dinner. A happy find, will return read more

A solid "red sauce" Italian restaurant that has many options they do well. Nice views from a building with greenhouse levels of windows, good food and service... and gummie bears and animal crackers come with your bill. They've added outdoor dining in what I believe was the parking area which seems to have increased capacity to the point the long lines of yester-year are no more. read more

Been here a few times before as it's my MILs favorite for celebrations. Went early to beat the dinner rush as they do not take reservations. We were seated by the fireplace so it was cozy like someone's dining room. We are always immediately greeted and everyone who works here seems to enjoy their job. Food is delicious. Always. Ask for parm-you get a heaping dish. Kids walked out happy with little containers of gummy bears from our server. We'll continue to make the 45 minute drive again and again. read more

I was struggling to decide where to go for a nice casual dinner with colleges, that had the right menu and vibes, and luckily a local cafe owner recommended Sorella Caffe! It was right on the mark! Boisterous, busy, and friendly from the minute you walk in - we knew we were in the right place. We signed in for a table of 4 and waited a bit, even being offered a complimentary glass of wine or water to help pass the time. Then we were seated at a perfect round table off to the side, with views of the two cozy fireplaces, and delicious bread with butter. We shared a mista and a ceaser salad, 3 pastas from the specials menu, and a butternut squash ravioli. All of them were exceptionally delicious and we finished every last bite. Plus lovely, attentive but not obtrusive, professional service. They definitely know what they're doing here. We'll definitely be back and looking forward to it until then. read more

It was all amazing. A little bit of a wait on Sunday night; but the service was excellent; and the food was delicious.

I had a craving for Italian food one night and stopped here on a whim. I was pleasantly surprised by this neighborhood gem. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and the food was tasty with generous portions. Service was attentive. It was easy to see why Sorella's is such a beloved neighborhood staple. read more

Great atmosphere and even better service, but the top reason I've consistently gone there since finding this place just 6 months ago is the food. I and my date has never been disappointed. read more

We were recommended this place by a friend because we headed to Fairfax to see a band at Mac's. Village Sake had an hour and a half wait. The wait time for us was thirty minutes, but we landed an outdoor table with heat lamps in five minutes. Yay! When we were seated, I felt like I was at an outdoor party. We were checked on and taken care of right away. It was a converted parking lot and felt fun on picnic tables. They have a super menu with so many choices! They honestly cater to all types of difficult - vegan, vegetarian, gf, dairy free, meat loving, pasta addiction.....they have a nice drinks menu,too. I had the lentil curry soup bowl. Vegan. Delicious and so fall-like. We shared an appetizer. I think it was calamari, but sorry to say not memorable and I forgot. He had the chicken piccata with artichokes. He loved it. It was different with the added touch of artichokes. The check came and they gave us a bag of animal cookies and a little container of gummy bears. Cute touch to go in the car glove box in case of snack emergency. The inside looks cozy and there's lots of tables. There's even a standing fireplace. Next time we are in Fairfax, we will return! read more

I hosted a family reunion dinner for 12 here and everyone absolutely raved about the amazing service and incredible food. It is a charming, inviting, very welcoming restaurant in Fairfax, which is, itself, the pulse of Marin. We had a large corner table. Water and bread appeared immediately. Our server was so friendly and efficient. There wasn't a beat between appetizers and our entrees. Everything was cooked to perfection. We were so happy that Sorella could accommodate one vegan, one gluten-free, one soy-allergen, one shellfish allergy. Plus, the 13 month old had a great time eating her risotto and green veggies while flirting with all of the lovely waitstaff. Everyone raved about the fantastic service, amazing food, and great Fairfax atmosphere. read more

Weekday dinner for 2 people at 6:30p. To my surprise - the food came out piping hot! The restaurant was full but the food came out so wonderfully hot and delicious. Had the mixed seafood pasta with red sauce. Heaps of seafood and lots of pasta. Calamari was great too, not overly breaded. Would be back again! read more

They were very kind and warm staff. An inviting ambiance. The food was very good! I will go again!

This was a delicious meal with superb service. Everyone at the restaurant was so attentive and courteous. Above and beyond! My Cioppino was excellent! Such a generous portion and so scrumptious. Lots of seafood in a delicious broth. The gluten free pasta with sautéed octopus was also delicious and a large portion. Lastly, the seafood salad was also an excellent choice. Lots of tasty seafood and perfect greens. We loved our meal! Highly recommended! read more

This place has been a favorite place for my family over a few generations. Always reliably tasting dishes. The decor is totally Fairfax

I've been looking to try this place after hearing my friends rave about it, and I was not disappointed! The ambiance is very inviting, with many interesting pieces of artwork around the restaurant and even designed onto some tables. Our server was very nice and our food came out fast and warm! I ordered the Ragu Alla Bolognese and also tried the Porcini and Truffle Ravioli, both which were really good. I also liked how big the portions were, as they were very reasonable for the price! P.S. loved the cute little candies that they gave with the check! read more

I thought the service was very friendly. It's very much a local gem - not trying to be flashy anything pretentious- just a local homey feel. I thought the caesar salad was delicious. I tried the Jacks Rigatoni with sausage. I thought it was really tasty - came out piping hot. I did not love the sausage however so probably would try something else next time. The butternut squash ravioli was also quite good. read more

Sorella Caffe - Pasta Carbonara - Italian Near Me - Fairfax, California

I used to really love this place, but this last visit made me feel like I got bamboozled. Food is good, but upcharges added to my check will not be bringing me back any time soon - the "restaurant fee" of 3.5% is automatically added assuming the guest will pay with a credit card. I found this out by asking about it, but was never asked beforehand if I would like to pay with cash. I find that ridiculous, as most transactions are with credit accounts, and 3.5% is the absolute upper limit that credit card companies charge in transaction fees. Feels like a rip off... Also, don't order the Italian sausages unless you want to get a product that tastes like a breakfast sausage - thumbs way down. read more

We arrived early tonite. Nice quiet outdoor seating. Started with wine. Enjoyed the bread and butter. Then split the crab cake appetizer. It was fine. Could've been warmer but acceptable. I then ordered pasta primavera and husband ordered the clam and pasta. We were enjoying our wine and within six minutes both meals were served. I mean seriously how could this be cooked so quickly? It looked pretty. My primavera had several veges but it the pasta wasn't cooked and was extremely al dente. The veges were the same. Mine sat on plate and softened slowly but my husbands clams were chewy and not cooked. We did complain to our server and she said there would be a small adjustment on our tab. They did deduct $10 in the end. We live a few blocks from this place and REALLY want to patronize and enjoy it but tonite was a disappointment. It's not the first time. I could see if the kitchen was slammed ,but seriously they were very few people there that early. Lesson learned, again. read more

Nice atmosphere, live music. Food was lousy, pasta and clams was dry, food came out in under 10 minutes....suspicious. The service was really friendly. Wont come back tho. read more

All I can say is WOW. What a wonderful gem in the city of Fairfax. I feel like I am in the Twilight movie. So fun! The food is fabulous. Wonderful flavors and large portions. The staff is so friendly and they give you lots of free goodies as well (bread and desert snacks with the check)! Both indoor and outdoor seatings were lovely. Can't wait to be back. It is pricey$$$, so I would recommend for special occasions! read more

My first time at this place and I was really pleased with the amazing service! You can tell the staff here all like a family because as each and every one of them were so warm to one another and that really reflected on the service. They would joke around with one another and it was amazing to see the camaraderie they have. The food was really amazing as well. The portions they served are very generous I could not finish it. DELICIOUS! if you get the chance either eat outside and enjoy the fresh air or grab a window seat because the views and ambiance are amazing! All the staff are wonderful and their awards are a testament of that. When I'm back in Mill Valley I will for sure be coming back here again! read more
